8 gallons pre-boil coming up to a boil now.

Five o'clock on a Friday and you're already most of the way done. That just takes all the fun out of the anticipation of a weekend brew session. What are you going to do now? (or do you have a second in the works?)

For me it's a Saison. No stir plate, so the starters been getting a lot of attention today. Wife came home with a lazy susan from a yard sale. "I can use that." Give it a few spins every time I pass.

My local club and I are brewing up 55 gallons of a Robust porter this weekend. We will secondary all the brew in a 55 gallon oak whiskey barrel. Yummmm!

 

[Figbash]

It's the weekend, therefore I am brewing.

 

[BA_from_GA]

been a busy week here already. Tuesday i cleaned about 2.5 cases of various sizes bottles (12 and 22 oz), wednesday i bottled a cider, tomorrow i'm brewing an AHS Amber Ale, and in a few days i'm bottling a AHS belgian wit.

And right now i'm looking for what to order from AHS next.

i love the spring time...

This morning I brewed up a Carmel apple hard cider. Tonight I plan on racking a blonde ale to secondary. Sunday I plan to brew another blonde ale of a recipe I made up.

lol...love it...lazy brewsan.

I've got a yeast cake waiting for a belgian tripel...

I just kegged a pre-Triple (Enkle I guess) and am using the yeast for a Tripel tomorrow. 12# of Belg Pils, 1.5# sugar and lotsa Trappist yeast.

HWMBC... He who must be consulted? Nice.

Alright, nobody has posted to this forum since before 9 pm. Anybody else finish brewing tonight or are you all passed out?

I started at 8 when the reinforcements showed up. We polished off a few bottles of a pretty nice hefeweizen I made 5-6 weeks ago and sampled a stout as well from late January.

Finished at 12:30, cleanup included. Hit all my mash temperatures spot on thanks to Beersmith and my OG was right on at 1.046 according to Jamil's recipe.

I love the smell of boiling wort in the evening. It smells like VICTORY!

Booyah!

Will be brewing BM's Kona Fire Rock Pale Ale this morning, but first I have to bottle 11 gallons, better get to work.:rockin:

Probably not going to get any time to brew this weekend, so I took advantage of a nice day and fired off on a brew day. Rugby match in DC today, so I'm getting ready to drive down with some of my mates now and won't be back home until late. :rockin:

Tomorrow's pretty tied up too, but I might manage. Need to brew more March Brown Mild! If I can't brew, I'll be doing brewing chores, no doubt. Got the Cascade, Willamette and Chinook in the ground the other day, thinking about adding a few more.

 

[Chello]

I'll be brewing at least 5 gallons, possibly 10, of my Rye Pale Ale. Should be a beautiful weekend to chill on the porch.

 

[sparkyaber]

Just making a little breakfast and then on to Bee Cave Haus Ale.

 

[Budzu]

I'll be brewing DubbelDach's Orange Honey Hefeweizen today, and unfortunately I just broke my only hydrometer yesterday... guess I'll take pre- and post-boil samples and store them for now. Excited about this brew though! https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f70/orange-honey-hefeweizen-69499/

 

[conpewter]

Going for a 10 gallon batch of oatmeal stout, splitting with a friend. Tomorrow unfortunately, having people over today.

 

[stokems]

Gonna make 10 gallons of Cream Ale. On one 5 gallon batch I'll pitch safe-ale yeast. On the other I washed yeast from a batch of Grand Cru that I'll try out. Should be interesting. On another note, HBT is seriously the best home brewing resource I've ever come across. From buliding DIY to techniques I'm in love. Just throwin it out there.

 

[LaurieGator]

My grains are steeping for my Birthday Brew. It will become a dark cherry stout when I am done. There is no better birthday present to yourself than brewing a great batch of beer. Kinda keeps the birthday going all year long!

 

[drunkatuw]

Brewing up the BYO Celebration Ale Clone recipe from the hop lover's guide special edition. Ready to pull the first runnings now.

 

[Nugent]

Just finished brewing my House Mild, verison 2.0.

Did it stove top - turned on the water at 7:30 am, back to bed, hot enough by 8:10. Piched yeast at noon.

6 gal. of all-grain and the rest of a sunny day to boot.

 

[nostalgia]

20 minutes into the boil of an oaked porter. I'm glad I didn't try a full boil with my 7g pot. The 4g of wort wanted to boil over badly My new ghetto-fabulous hop bag is a winner, though!

Brewed up 5.5 gal of an AG Jamil's Flander's red ale. My first attempt at a sour beer. I'm going to try real hard to bulk age it for 12 months then bottle it in Belgian bottles or something. My plan is to bottle half a gallon of the unsoured beer and just sour 5 gallons so I can compare how the souring bugs change the flavor.

All went well and only missed my gravity by 2 points and FINALLY hit my intended volume of 5.5 gal in the fermenter. It was my 4th AG and I'm still dialing in my system.

 

[harley03]

I just got done doing a AG cream ale. Starting to work on some new summer brews.

 

[Tsuyako]

Hopefully, assuming fedex is on my side, I'll have my first mead going.

 

[SpanishCastleAle]

Farking propane burner crapped out yesterday. I was mashing on the stove and waited until the last minute to light the burner for the sparge water...no fire...regulator leaking through diaphragm. Result was a 2-hour sacc rest while I ran to Home Depot...then to Lowes to get another one.

And of course the new one burns hotter so I was constantly trying to reduce the boil...and undershot my volume by almost a quart.

 

[BierMuncher]

Well I got my 5-gallons of Rye IPA done Friday night and figured I'd be done for the weekend.

Neighbors came over last night after we went out to dinner and cleaned out my "Panzy Ale" (SWMBO's BMC beer) so I might have to measure out and brew again today.

 

[Yankeehillbrewer]

Just mashed in an Arrogant Bastard clone. This will be my biggest beer yet. Also my first time using my new MLT that I finished building last night.

 

[Hugh_Jass]

Just finished cleaning up from brewing 20 gallons; 10 Amber Ale pitched with 05 and 10 gallons Bee Cave Pale Ale.
Hit both gravities.
Flame on @ noon; flame out 6 pm.
A glorious day, indeed!

 

[cclloyd]

I did a batch of hefeweizen last night - used a starter made from harvested yeast that had been in the fridge for 11 months. Fired right up and happily bubbling.

 

[BeerPressure]

made zainasheff's belgian wit. ****ed up the mash temps but hit the starting grav. meh.
