Right now I have my Red Hook ESB clone cold crashing in the fridge in primary #1 and a fresh batch of Caribou Slobber churning away nicely in primary #2. Below is a shot of the slobber.

5.5 GAL OF PORTER
5.5 GAL OF LAGER
5.5 GAL OF APA 1.0
5.5 GAL 05 APA 2.0
5.5 GAL OF APA 3.0
5.5 GAL OF RAUCHBEIR

I thought building a 4 bucket fermentation chamber was going to be big enough, turns out I still have buckets fermenting in the bathroom.

I think it's like Ricardo's iron law of wages--no matter how much space you have to ferment, it's never enough. I have 58gal of fermentation vessel space, but started planning a 3BBL nano, and recently stepped my fantasy fermenters & bright tanks to 7BBL ;)

At the moment I'm slacking, though:
10gal Sculpin clone, 5gal CAP, 10gal coffee vanilla porter, and (conditioning/aging) 5gal each of Oaked Old Ale and Tart Cherry Farmhouse Braggot.

Do you mind sharing the Sculpin recipe? One of my absolute favorite IPAs and I've been looking for a good clone. :mug:

A lid, which has a bead of caulk curing on it. I'll check on it Saturday.
If I can get to the brew this weekend, I'll have a gallon of this:

Briese Rye
UK Crystal
Black Pepper
Amarillo
Wyeast Irish Ale
 
5 gal. Irish Milk Chocolate Stout on the way to keg this week
5 gal. Cherry bomb cider in primary
6 gal. Malbec kit starting tomorrow
Next week ?
 
5 gal Cooper's Stout
1 gal Chocolate Lavender Stout
Next Week- 5 gal. Kiwi Express NZ IPA
Week after- 1 gal Irish Red
 
Nothing in the fermenter, but three jars of wild rice wine are off to a good start. I'll check on them next week.

I should stop saying that I'll brew on Friday, but I think I will. I have the ingredients, and I can do a smoked ale with Amarillo that will taste, well, wretched.
 
5 gal of EdWort Apfelwein
5 gal of EdWort Haus Ale
5 gal of Kabe's Secret APA
5 gal of Sierra Nevada Narwhal (at least I hope its a clone, I made up the recipe and haven't tasted it)

Wookey Jack is next!
 
6 gals of a session ipa i came up

Also just today bottled 6 gals of an american brown ale ive been trying to perfect. This is my third version, hoping for the best on this one!

Also also, a couple yeast experiment starters ive been playing with, notably an open-fermented jar of wort thats showing signs of some serious funk right now. :rockin:
 
10gal Old Rasputin clone--supposed to be part of a Club Brew of 50gal going into a bourbon barrel. Problem is that it tastes so good, even at only 1/2 way to FG, that I don't want to give it up...

5gal Classic American Pilsner lagering
