Right now, I have a nut brown ale, LIVID IIPA in the fermenters, and on deck, my first home-made recipe, a baltic porter.. I expect to brew it tomorrow or Saturday morning.
 
5 gallons lightly smoked porter. Meant to make a brown ale with just a touch of roasted barley, accidentally bought twice the roasted barley I had intended. Should still be tasty.
 
just racked 10 gallons Octoberfest into the kegs and dry hopped a rye ipa and hoping my pumpkin beer will be ready to take out of primary in about a week or so. Then hopefully in about 2 weeks ill be able to brew a winter lager.
 
5 gallons Saison w/3711 at 2 weeks in primary.
5 gallons Orange/Cascade Pale. Safale 05. 4 days in Primary.
Russian River clone 3 weeks in bottle.
 
A Kolsch finishing up for Oaktoberfest in Oakland, and a Specialty Ale with homegrown Golding hops and Tennessee maple syrup thrown in after the boil. I'll use the rest of the syrup to prime. I'm calling it Tennessee Stepper. It's around 9%ABV. Can't wait!
 
Got a batch of pumpkin ale that's been in there for a week now. Couple more weeks till I cold crash, add more spices and then keg.

Did you really make such a small batch, or do you have a spigot on your fermenter? :mug:

I swear I did not waste a single drop of that sweet, sweet wort. :)

I do all grain brewing (BIAB + sparge) in a 19l pot on my electric stovetop. 14-15l is about my max batch size since I don't do any post boil dilutions.
 
1# A Punk IPA clone (with wrong malt, so much for the clone aspect)
2# I call it The Pooper. A black something created by me, pretty darn good actually. Moderately hoped with 6 hops in the kettle, + some coriander seeds, and 3 more in the fementor.
#3 Empty :( But full in an hour :) Lager with some perle and mittelfruh.
 
1. 5.5 gallons Helles in cold conditioning (actually in a keg)
2. 3 gallons barleywine with Brett C
3. 5 gallons sour ale
4. 5.5 gallons IPA in primary

Still have 2 3 gallon carboys and a 5 gallon empty. The IPA will go to the 5 gallon next weekend and the 6.5 will be used for a hefeweizen. Guess I need to brew up 6 gallons of something for the two small boys.
 
Getting things cleaned again & sanitized to bottle the watermelon hefe. The priming calculators say 3.06-4.04 volumes of co2. I don't trust bottles to go that high, so it's 2.8 Vco2 to be on the safe side.
 
Kinda funny how the FV didn't really off-gas till I took the hydrometer sample 4 days ago. Now it's bubbling a couple times a minute...on bottling day. Musta scared the sharts out of it, with all the equipment sanitizing. It's gettin' a tube right in the pee hole! :D
 
I have some happy yeasties, there're off to the races, 6 gallons of milk stout.
A couple 1 gallon meads in the background.

I think my honey brown is infected in the secondary... I see a few small white mold patches floating on top. :(
 
As of right now, I've got the Sour BB Oatmeal Stout that's now getting to be about a year old, along with a "Wild" Bitter also souring, and then a Best Bitter that's been in primary about a week, and an English IPA that's been in primary since Friday night, and is now roaring at full tilt. I'll be adding a spiced Winter Warmer tomorrow that will hopefully be ready come the holidays.
