So who's brewing this weekend?

[z-bob]

Is it difficult to make that syrup? That was my original idea too but I'm too much of a wuss to boil 150°c sugar so went with muscovado instead

I made it in a pressure cooker in canning jars, at about 120°C. Mainly to see if I could do it.

 

[day_trippr]

Done and done!

 

[Tobor_8thMan]

Plans to brew a Spotted Cow cream ale on Saturday of the Memorial Day weekend. Getting things ready now.

 

[rhys333]

Thinking about brewing this amber ale this weekend...

 

[seatazzz]

Grain milled and everything set up for an early brewday tomorrow. Decided to do 8lbs of pilsner with 2lbs of two row for a bit of color, with Saaz at 60, 30, and 15 for a nice light lager. Will ferment cold on some S-23 slurry that did a great job on its initial brew; I've found that this yeast does fantastic in the 2nd-3rd-4th generation. Sipping on some Bell's Two Hearted clone that continues to improve after a few weeks in the keg tonight. Is it morning yet????

 

[Chris-Naz]

Fired up a brut-ish NEIPA last night w/Citra cryo, comet, centennial and amarillo. Fermenting with BRY-97.

 

[Hoppy2bmerry]

First hop addition is in.

 

[grampamark]

Brewing a Dunkelweizen, drinking a HB Mosaic APA. Just kegged the PA yesterday. It's not quite fully carbed, but Uncle Charlie said "It takes homebrew to make homebrew", so I’m just following the rules.

 

[ramjam]

brewing a kölsch wort but going to try a voss kveik yeast, has any of you guys done this before?

 

[camonick]

I have a pale ale penciled in for tomorrow

 

[Dland]

Cellar is going to warm up soon, so hope tomorrow to brew the last cool fermented lager of the year. My plan is to use some top notch malts and S-189 yeast.

For 10-11 gallon batch, considering;

10# floor malted weyerman pils,
5# admiral 2 row
5# briess pilsner, or if I decide to get creative, the briess would be filler to to 20#

Heading for mid 30sIBU, maybe Amarillo first wort, Pearl 30 min boil, & a post boil hop step between BK and cooling with leaf hops, probably use Cascade, wort drained into hop step at around 180F, set for around 10-15 minutes, then cool while pumping to fermentor in cellar.

 

[Abrayton]

Third week in a row I’ve tried to get a brew in but this one is finally gonna happen. Has to be an overnight mash and finish in the morning. Falconers Flight IPA

 

[6Tap]

Brewed an American Stout today.
Took this pic after cleaning the system but forgot to take progress pics. [emoji20]
#NGD came over to brew with me and we had an awesome time! Thanks @NGD for your help! [emoji482]

Hey thanks for the invite. Thats a bitchin setup you have. Look forward to hearing how that stout turns out.

 

[One4Liberty]

Brewed a simple APA.
8lbs 2-row, 2lbs Vienna, and .5lb crystal 40L.
Cascade, Citra, and Centennial hops
I call it C3PA. Tasty little brew.

 

[camonick]

Pale ale in the fermenter and 2nd generation Notty pitched. Smells good and hydrometer sample tastes promising. 1.053 OG (temperature corrected)

 

[ProblemChild]

Brewed an Amber (red) IPA.

Pale, Caramunich I, Munich,Special B, Pale Chocolate, Roasted Barley

Simcoe, Hallertuer Blanc, Mandarina Bavaria, Citra

Wort is really pretty....

 

[Brewbuzzard]

Brewed 15 gal of Kolsch yesterday then racked off the cold break this morning. Now to aerate and pitch.

 

[catdaddy66]

Sure hope to brew this weekend. I have two batches ground and ready to mash, and I am pretty sure they are the same (I had a brain bubble and measured out the same grist twice). Silver lining will let me use different yeasts for a change during identical fermentation schedules.

 

[scbbrady17]

Brewing SMaSH Pale ale, with El Dorado

 

[Mutant]

Working on a Saison (Std strength) with WLP546 (Marañón Canyon Wild Cacao) and Cashmere. The variable is the WLP546 having never used it before.

Std strength? Is that like when you get herpes and then lift a bus?

 

[Aróchito]

Hey folks,
This weekend started my first cider brew. 5 gallons treetop pressed juice
3 tspns yeast nutrient
And a champagne yeast.
It's bubbling just fine. I read conflicting things online though about the fermentation time. Some say it'll be done in 1-2 weeks, some say a couple of months. What say you, the message board heads? Also what kind of alcohol levels can i expect? Thank you!

 

[day_trippr]

A follow-up to this Saison Adventure from last weekend: these...

...did this...

Pitched around 6pm last Friday, the B51 hit 1.003 FG by Monday afternoon, the B64 arrived at the same gravity today. Yikes!

Cheers!

 

[Abrayton]

Belgian pale. Last Belgian of the year then three months of saisons.

 

[jschm19]

Everything prepped and ready for 12.5 gallons of Munich dunkel tomorrow

Hmmm, have not seen that beer from Oskar Blues before. A new one?

 

[Hoppy2bmerry]

Planning to brew Saison de Noel.

 

[One4Liberty]

I am brewing tomorrow. Repeat of a new Red Rye pale ale recipe I put together. Keg kicked this week and I want more.

 

[dchmela]

I only have one beer on tap!!! How am I going to get through the holiday weekend!

Well, tomorrow I will be brewing the Citra, Mosaic, El Dorado IPA. In 2 weeks will be firing up a Cashmere Saison.

 

[z-bob]

Brewed a batch of English bitter tonight; the one I was supposed to do last weekend. Saturdays seldom seem to work, so I thought I'd see if Friday night did (and it does, barely, if I grind the malt the night before)

 

[day_trippr]

Spinning up some wy2565 for a 10 gallon batch of kolsch this weekend. Could be Sunday, maybe Monday...

Cheers!

 

[jcav]

In the middle of a mash right now on this fine Memorial Day weekend! Brewing my Belgian Wit recipe with fresh orange peel and Indian coriander seeds. I also throw in some fresh crushed pepper corns and it is delish! Happy Memorial Day to everyone!

John

 

[ApolloSimcoe]

Kolsch today!

 

[Hoppy2bmerry]

I have plans for 3 to 4 batches, if my body holds up

 

[BrewerOTP]

I am dusting off the Grainfather and plan to run a 2-Hearted clone this weekend. It's been a while so I need to refresh on the process and recipe mods needed to run in the GF. Hmmm...clearly I need to brew more often!!

 

[OnePlate]

Just pitched the yeast into my first attempt at a kettle sour made with Amarillo hops. What went into the fermenter already tastes amazing. I can hardly wait to see how this turn out!

 

[palanole]

Finally getting the brewing equipment back out after moving to CO from FL 18 months ago. Brewing an ESB to get back in the swing.

 

[rjs3273]

This morning I started on a moderately odd experiment; a dark-ish, ordinary bitter with a lot of oats in it. Just after dough-in I was looking at it, thinking it looked pretty strange, when I realised I had forgotten to crush the grain. I guess it is going to be even more experimental than I had intended.

 

[day_trippr]

Kolsch joins the pipeline, looking like coffee with cream right now...

Cheers!
