What's everyone brewing?

Best Case 1820 IPA Kit. The 2nd last kit I'm making before jumping to All-Grain.

Brewing a Robust Porter today. Decided to test my system at full capacity.

[sheppard107]

well, missed my OG really hard on the one gallon porter, wound up with like 53% efficiency (recipe assumed 70-75).

I did my first all grain (a 1 gal APA) about a month ago and had the same problem. Ended up with a 56% efficiency. I had a big enough mesh bag, but had some trouble holding the mash temperature. I think next time I'm going to try stirring the mash every so often too, to see if that helps.

Beer still tasted fine though. I didn't have any corn sugar or DME on hand, so I just ended up with a session APA instead of a 'full strength' version.

Just pitched some WYeast 3787 Trappist into some apple juice and brown sugar.

[Bluefin 774]

Last night I brewed up a Pale Ale that I plan to dry hop with Cascade hops. I also kegged a Pilsner that was dry hopped with Target and Athanum hops.

[mackay85]

Just brewed a Belgian IPA with mostly Citra.

On Deck : Ballast Sculpin IPA

In the Hole: Mosaic IPA

[LiverDance]

Hoping to brew my house red ale this evening

[Woody]

Just started the mash on my Mosiac IIPA. Going to add some honey to the boil and a full pound of hops. Going to late hop this bad boy and try a Wyeast 1272 i've stepped up a few times for this double batch.

As the ongoing experimentation continues. Decided to do up a couple of light brews. These prob. could have benefited from some melanoiden and cara pils but....
Both 4kg 2row, after five days fermenting added 500g clover honey and 200g dextrose to each (pasturised with some water at 80 deg C for 60 min) Both fermentations took off again, now we wait.
Hops were the NZ hops Rakau and Orbit to mid 20 ibu.

[Buccaneer]

Put together a Sculpin clone I got from Everwood. I absolutely cannot wait to sample this.

[LiverDance]

Brewed up a British Golden Ale on Sunday, my first time using Ringwood yeast in a long time. Looking forward to seeing what happens with it.

Love and hate Ringwood. It's temperamental but I've found it seems to get better when you repitch it. I think the yeast strain is from my graduate school hometown of Hull.

I just brewed for the first time since Sept 14. An IPA, 1.066, a mix of Topaz and Amarillo. US-05 for this one. I'm trying to get back into the swing of things so no Conan or Pacman this time.

Welcome back! I'm going for a big motherfucking American barleywine this week (for next Christmas).

[RubberToe]

Wicked. I hope to keep the ball rolling and brew several times over the holidays.

[Bluefin 774]

Saturday evening I brewed another batch of beer. This time a simple Pilsner that will be dry hopped with Citra.

[McGruff]

Brewing a Festa Brew Brown Ale. I meant " fermenting ".

[Hobbitfu]

Just bottled a 12% American Barley Wine and brewed a Wee Heavy (targeted at about 9.5%)

[malarcus]

After almost 13 months on hiatus, I ordered 3 kits ( American lager, Belgian blonde and the bock) from everwood.

Can't wait to get the dust and spider webs off the brewing gear!

Just finished a double brew day, I did a double batch of my base IPA to be split for experimenting and a new recipe for an English bitter. The IPA had a 90 minute boil and the bitter a 120 minute boil so it was a long haul.

I ran out of carboys so I had to leave the bitter in the kettle to ferment. Hopefully the ball valve doesn't decide to let go.
