What's Brewing This Weekend? (6/15-17)

[Brewsmith]

Racked the Kolsch and sampled both 777 beers.

Cleaned the fermentation fridge that had some hop pellet splatter and blow off residue on the bottom.

Cleaned taps on the kegerator and the drip tray.

Hopefully brewing next weekend.

Brewing a Hefe Weizien today just made my yeast starter this AM

 

[joebou4860]

Making either an APA or IPA...It depends on my efficiency.
I'll let you know in a couple hours

EDIT: it is an IPA.

I was going to try to brew both a Grand Cru and an Ordinary Bitter last night. I got the Grand Cru in the primary at 3am. I discovered I'm short an airlock for the Bitter so it will have to wait until next week.

 

[Cheesefood]

Perfect brewing weather here, but I'm on kid duty this weekend, plus I have to work. Too hot and humid to have a little guy outside for a few hours.

Gonna rack some Boom Boom Vanilla to secondary.
Possibly make an IPA - found a mightily hoppy recipe online
using a bunch of Warrior, Chinook, Centennial, and Williamette.

I LOVE HOPS!!!!

 

[98EXL]

British Pale Ale (Bass-sih Clone)
Canadian Lager (Just add water - set it and forget it!!!)

Next week:
Apfelwein and Oatmeal Stout (first PM!!!!)

 

[BierMuncher]

Did 10 more gallonsof my Nierra Sevada. that's 20 gallon in two weekends. This sh!t had better last a while.

Gonna brew up some of EdWorts HausAle next weekend.

 

[Yuri_Rage]

Had a wonderful brew day - the beer turned out quite well, so far. 80% efficiency, no major problems yet. Even the yeast starter finally managed to get going.

Well...I do have a bit of a problem...I'm fermenting a lager, but my lagerator can't keep up with this damn heat. Setting it to anything less than 60 causes it to freeze up and quit. I think the solution is a better (bigger) A/C unit. But for now, I hope my Budvar Steam beer isn't too fruity.

Bottled this weekend, but tonight I brew my first Dry Stout.

 

[Evan!]

I didn't brew anything, but I drank plenty. Took a nice weekend at a friend's cabin at Deep Creek Lake, MD. 4.5-hr drive sucked, but it was worth it.

I did come across something cool, though...we went into a liquor store (not used to beer/wine and distilled spirits in the same store together!), and they had a little homebrew section...lo and behold, they had packets of dry Montrachet yeast, which is just what I need to make Ed's Apfelwein! And at 49 cents apiece, you can't go wrong. Apfelwein, here I come...

 

[Rhoobarb]

Is that going to be drinkable by July 14th?

Unfortunatley, no. It needs 21 days in the primary, then 14 days in secondary. Everything went perfectly, too. I hit both my strike water and my OG dead-nuts on!:rockin:

But the Wild Rice Lager has been ready for awhile and I'll be bringing that - if there's any left!

Meant to say earlier - cool avatar. The Splits rule!

 

[Hopleaf]

I brewed Cheesefood's Caramel Cream Ale last night, looking forward to tasting it.

 

[RickWG]

No brewing this weekend but I talked my wife into helping me bottle two brews. 5g of an IPA and 5g of a cream ale. During the bottling she asked if kegging would be easier and I said yea. She asked when I was going to start kegging.
damnit. I love her.

Cheesefood's Boom-Boom next weekend and a Hef immediately following.
