What's everyone brewing?

[moxie]

Brew storm as of late... Robust Vanilla Porter, Hefe, back to back. If only I were brewing 10g at a time.

[Jimmy]

Changed my mind and started a Pale Ale today. Just mashed in and hit my temp dead on this time

[Jimmy]

Making a brown ale tomorrow. Still undecided on the recipe though

[Tony L]

Just pitched a cake into a Schwarzbier. Yummy, and drinking some left overs from kegging my last one a few weeks ago. Not even lagered
and it tastes so good it may not last to get lagered.

Making a brown ale tomorrow. Still undecided on the recipe though

I brewed a simple brown ale last fall that was pretty tasty, adapted it from a recipe on HBT:

9 lb 2 row
1 lb crystal 60
1 lb flaked oats
1 lb biscuit malt
1/4 lb chocolate malt
1oz Fuggles 60 min
1oz EKG 15 min
Nottingham

Would like to pitch 1028 in this one to see how it turns out.

I want to brew up a Rye IPA ASAP.

First ever Aleanders' double-double 2mar. 46L each of Ewe Love (Scottish Export Ale) and Everyday Normal Guy (California Common).

[whisle pig]

Waiting on a new single burner, but through together a festa Pale using saved IPA batch yeast that will get dry hopped with Zythos in the secondary.

First all grain batch this afternoon of a pretty simple Pale Ale. Somehow managed to hit 78% efficiency despite using a bucket and mesh bag combo for a mash tun. Really looking forward to getting a proper mash tun setup so get clearer wort going into the kettle.

[benwedge]

Geared up and ready to roll on X's Oatmeal Stout tomorrow. We'll see how the newly modified setup works. My dad is making stock with the sieve I normally use to contain the hops, so I may need an emergency backup plan in the morning. I'll post pics tomorrow.

[RubberToe]

Today or tomorrow I'll be brewing a simple pale ale, using left over hops from an IPA I did a couple weeks ago and the yeast from an ESB I kegged earlier this week. It will be my most cost effective brew to date, all grain stove top BIAB.

Well, my brew went better than expected. A few pictures to come later, but I only had one (small) boilover (it didn't even douse the flame!) and a few relatively minor other issues. This will be the last brew I do without a proper chiller though - the chilling was painful and wouldn't drop below 80 degrees for ages and a fair bit of evaporation occurred during the 1.5 hour cooling.

[Eagleray]

I bottled an Octoberfest and have a Belgian Dubbel in the primary.

[LiverDance]

brewed up an Ipa today

[LiverDance]

Mashed in on a Firestone Walkers's Reserve clone on my lunch break. I'll be finishing this baby up later on this evening.

[KMcK]

I brewed two holiday saisons today: one French and one Belgian.

Just mashed in. It's a little cool out there today

[chalmers]

Brave (stupid?) man, Jimmy!
I went outside to start the gf's car, and that was enough of the outdoors for me today.
At least you can hover around the burners to stay warm.
