What's in your fermenter(s)?

[markus2982]

2 gallons of pumpkin pie mead, fermented in a pumpkin. Six experimental batches of rice wine.

I want to do this!!!

 

[distributistdad]

I've got 5 gallons of Beirmuncher's Nierra Sevada, 5 gallons of what should finish 11.8% Belgian Dark Strong Ale & a 5 gallon batch of Apfelwein!

Bulk grains arrive this week -- a porter, pale ale and wit need to be brewed by the end of the month!

 

[rappell]

My own recipe, Peakers Chocolate Port Stout. 10% ABV.

 

[burgundyblue]

I've got a late summer IPA I just transferred to secondary.

When I read the first post in the pumpkin thread and couldn't stop laughing I knew I had to.

So, are you going to admit that you've been drinking a bit of green dragon?

 

[one-L]

6 gallons of Simarillo Blonde (Biermuncher's recipe with Simcoe and Amarillo instead of Centennial and Cascade).

 

[VaBrewer]

5 gallons of Black Cherry Apfelwien

12 gallons of Denny's Wry Smile Rye

5 gallons of Biermunchers OctoberFast

6 gallons of DFH90 minute clone

 

[Beergazzi]

Brewed a 5g batch of Sweet Potato Spiced Ale yesterday, with lactose and vanilla (at bottling) for that marshmallow topping flavor.

I think there is a gallon of trub in there though.

Wort smelled dead on, tasted it too.

 

[NewWestBrewer]

3 Gallons of Coconut Cream Stout, 3 Gallons of jwibles204's Imperial Pumpkin Ale and 3 gallons of a Lagunitas IPA Clone.

If there is something that is fermenting, then the thing that it is fermenting in is a fermenter. I've fermented an Anchor Steam clone in a brewpot with a sheet thrown over it to simulate the open fermenters that they use(d). I'm never doing that again.

Anyway, I'm just finishing up the lagering phase for an Oktoberfest, have a Brett American Barleywine and a Chocolate Foreign Extra Stout bubbling away, and two style-be-damned sours coming along nicely.

 

[Dmlsys23]

5 gallons of Smashing Pumpkin Ale. Then in a few weeks an as of yet undetermined porter for my friend.

 

[corkybstewart]

Conical: 10 gallons of hefeweizen with WLP 300(I think), 5 gallons of wheat beer(same wort) with Kolsch yeast as an experiment.

 

[Powerturn11]

5 gallons of fat tire clone in secondary and big brown ale in primary.

Is that your picture? Google the British series: Shameless. You and the protagonist are doppelgangers. You should call the experimental beer doppelganger too, btw.

Anyone seen my ritalin? LOL

 

[Piratwolf]

10g of Extra Special Bitter w/ West Yorkshire yeast, Calypso FWH, and Willamette finish. Smells amazing!

 

[TNGabe]

Not sure when I posted in this thread last, but in the cellar I've got the same 10 carboys of aging wilds plus a wild quad & another batch of lamebic. Lagering I have a biere de garde and 'biere de creme' (cream ale BdG hybrid). In the fermentation chamber I've got a monster biere de noel, OG 1.100 and I'm thinking about adding some sugar to the fermenter.

 

[RhodySeth]

2.5 gallons of the 2nd Crack Coffee Stout recipe from NB. One more week and then it's time to bottle!

 

[unionrdr]

The Cougar Country IPA I pitched on Sunday afternoon is finishing Initial fermentation While The Maori IPA re-brew I pitched on a lil bit ago is in reproductive phase longer than the previous one. Oh well,Se'st la vie'...

Good point-I was in a being ratarded mood, I did just squeezed the bags of fruit today and transferred to my glass carboys(my usual feremters). I wouldnt be comfortable going more than a week in those pots- but they are clean and sterilized-I just wouldnt like loosing co2 after a few weeks and getting oxygen in,my gravity today was 1.02 already its only been 2-3 days in. Tastes really good too and actually got almost 2 gallons of each. I had to use the 2 one gallon jugs for one and my 3 gallon carboy for the other. Im thinking I may have to rack on top of more fruit because I only used 4# of fruit for an intentional one gallon each batches- now 2 gallons of volume each. Probably not enough fruit per gallon now for the blueberry melomel,and blackberry wine. Im considering them both wines really,I didnt probably use enough honey in the melomel to make it more mead like.I just used up what I had and also had to top it up with more sugar to reach my intentional gravity.

 

[tennesseean_87]

3 gallons of stout, 3.75 gallons DARK Mild (Brown stout?), 2.5 gallons hoppy Belgian Pale Ale. Hopefully the last two can be bottled on Monday!

 

[ajbram]

6 gallons of unorthodox cider, and about 4 gallons of "Leviathan -A Beer for Men" (11.1% ABV Imperial Bourbon Porter).

 

[wmcc75]

One gal of experimental spiced cranberry mead, and 2.5 gal of a raspberry ipa that I made up hence the reason for only 2.5 gal if it sucks that will be much easier to choke down/give away.

 

[Qhrumphf]

In primary I have my aging Lambic and a kitchen sink Smoked Black Saison. In secondary, an English Barleywine sitting on oak, as well as 1 gallon batches of Skeeter Pee, Dry Mead, Maple Wine, and Welch's Wine.

Since I believe it was this thread where it came up, the Maple Wine is actually quite tasty. A bit of an acquired taste, but I've enjoyed the samples I've had.

6 gallons of milk stout bubbling so hard at 61f it shocked me a little, pretty plastic bucket not much to look at.

Interesting, did it ferment dry?

 

[TNGabe]

Added figs to my wild quad today.



Preemptive blowoff is unneeded so far, but the figs had a few white spots so something interesting is bound to happen.

 

[luke_d]

Two gallons of apfelwein, three gallons of IIPA, and one gallon of IPA.

Looks great, saw it earlier and made me thirsty, how long you going to let it age? If the white spots don't take it in another direction.
