Who is brewing this weekend. 24-26 April

Brewing a Mexican lager this afternoon per request from a buddy that liked the first batch a few years ago. Should be good to go by the time the temperatures start creeping up near the triple digits.

 

Zombie dust clone hop parallel and hoping to get a munich dunkel in there.

 

I am happy to be brewing this weekend. I'll be starting with some kegging on Saturday along with some prep work for a Sunday brewday. I plan to brew a Kolsch for an early July party and the Averagely Perfect Saison, which I plan to split and use 20 year en Folie Vapuer yeast that jbakajust1 was able to resurrect in half.

 

I am going to bring my best... Berliner, first attempt this weekend. Try 10 gallons, 5 gal base beer, two 2.5 gal on fruit. Excited.

 

i'm brewing...what, I'm still not sure, time to take inventory on grains. Maybe an old gumballhead-esque amarillo wheat ipa

 

Just a simple German wheat with some orange peel. My first brew in a very long time. Retired now so I hope to get back into it. Will also be prepping to help a newbie brew up an american wheat on Monday.

 

I have Dry stout partial mash kit and wyeast 1214 Belgian Abbey, Gonna try making "Brother Thelonious Belgian Style Abbey Ale".
With Dark Belgian Candi Sugar, some Aromatic Malt and Biscuit Malt I hope to produce double dark Belgian ale.

 

Finishing my Berliner Weisse/ Kombucha experiment.

 

Right now I'm brewing up a wheat and rye IPA that I'm adding ginger and orange peel to an all Citra hop schedule, hopefully going to brew an Australian IPA using Australian Ale Yeast and Stella single hopped this afternoon or tomorrow. I'm also kegging a Simcoe, Amarillo, Galaxy and Equinox IPA tomorrow and bottling a Berliner Weisse.

 

I brewed a Gumballhead clone not too long ago that turned out fantastic! Gonna add that to my regular rotation, for sure!

 

Bluebird bitter. I found much inspiration at NERAX last week

 

Heating the water now for a full boil extract blonde :-)

Cheers!

 

Been over 2 months since I brewed anything, today that streak ends with my house ipa. Changed up the hops on this one, hop extract to bitter then centennial, el dorado and citra to flavor/aroma.

 

Mirin your kettle

 

Nice, did you culture the yeast from a bottle of Bluebird?

 

we did brew the Zombie Dust clone hop parallel (for our beer club-other people are brewing up clones with different hops), ours was with nelson sauvign. Had a slight (idiotic) panic when I tried to read the gravity using our refractometer at the end of boil to see if we needed to adjust to hit the target (I rarely clonebrew, so normally don't care how close we are to our target OG, being anal for this one), and the refractometer read it really wrong! When I measured gravity once it was cool, it was just fine.

First time brewing outside since December, thank God! I missed that, and my kitchen is a burnt mess because of brewing all winter long inside. I have no idea how y'all have such pretty kitchens. (mine is a '50's era wonder, though to start with, and nothing can make it look pretty).

 

My wife is diligent in her cleaning. I, apparently, don't do it right...

 

Cross post. Brewed our classic Rauchbier. Looked pretty good going from the heat exchanger into the conical...

 

supposedly, I'm the wife... The kitchen, heh....

 

Thanks, I do like it. It's a bayou classic, so not terribly expensive either
