Cheers!
Sent from my van, down by the river.
Nice touch fellow Cheesehead!! I'm just about to dough in on my first Saison.
Ha! I have a blonde that was on strawberries in primary and racked off of them into secondary this past week. Today, I brewed my Costa Cocoa Milk Stout. I mistakenly added 1 pound of lactose instead of 8 oz...hope that didn't mess things up. I think it will be okay. I cold brewed some Kona blend coffee, coarse ground to go in at bottling. Costa Rican cocoa husks went into grain steep. Nibs will go in secondary. The final will be a "Costa Kona Mocha Latte Stout".
Double batch of APA went into the fermenters, now bubbling modestly. I'm only on batch eight, but for cheddarhed3's comfort, I'll add that the only big fermentation I've gotten on a rehydrated packet of dry yeast was my first brew when I pitched at over 80 degrees F.
Does Thursday count as the weekend? Probably not, but I am doing a 10 gallon brew of a Simcoe/Amarillo Pale Ale. Hopefully it comes out well.
taking off work on St. Paddys day to brew up my first Lager
Oops! Almost forgot. Wanted to share with everyone my new keezer that I finished building. Cheers.
If you haven't already brewed this: could you get enough grain in if you cut the water to grist ratio? I did this with a 10 gallon doppelbock recently, and was able to get the full grain bill in my MLT by cutting the water to 1qt/lb.Going to try to make a toned down wookey jack clone I think. Don't have the room in the mashtun for the full grain bill so I am going to make it a black pale ale instead of black ipa. hopefully it works out and is similar enough to the regular thing.
