What's everyone brewing?

[pet lion]

Gong to brew a red ale today and soon start another IPA to use up some more of the hops in my freezer (Challenger, Glacier and Columbus).

Finally getting on that other IPA tonight.

What a horrible brew day. Went back to the 3 vessel setup for the day and it was a clusterfuck. I had like 10L of extra wort pre-boil, royally fucked my pre-boil gravity on my DIPA...I ended up boiling for an hour before I even started timing my 90 min boil and hop additions. Then I had my first boil over..wasn't paying attention and looked outside to see wort spewing over the top and all over my patio.

When everything was all said and done, I hit my target gravity & volume so all should be good.

Finally getting around to brewing an India Red Ale/Imperial Red with my Columbus and Cascade hop harvest tomorrow morning.

Glad to hear that you are using your setup a higher purpose than BIAB! Good show.

Jimmy: sure hope there wasn't anyone tanning on the balcony below you!

Mash Hop

Almost to the end of the sacch rest for my harvest ale. 13oz fresh Columbus in the mash. Going to be a ridiculously hoppy beer, but harvest time only comes once a year, so why not?

And this is what's going in the boil…

[mr x]

Drive them in there like packing a cannon.

[jeffsmith]

That's the plan!

[canuck]

Looks awesome Jeff!

[jeffsmith]

Finished with a 1.082 wort, 28oz of hops in the boil, 43oz total over the brew day. Wort tasted awesome at pitching!

Gonna make another BIAB attempt with an ESB tomorrow provided I come out of a turkey induced coma.

[spuds]

Efficiency on the Ten Penny was only 57%, not sure what happened. Did everything same as usual but only came out with an og of 1041.

Made this on Sunday morning .. Rickards Clone from Homebrewcrew. http://www.brewnosers.org/forums/viewto ... t=rickards First time using refractometer - a hell of a lot more convenient on brew day!

[ryantr0n]

Brewed a random unknown strain fresh-hop brew on Sunday.

Some friends moved into a place that had ready to pick (a little past ready, actually) hops growing over the back deck.
Managed to salvage about 11oz of em - a bunch were starting to brown and show mildew

Since there were so few, I tossed in 1.5oz of columbus at 60 for a little extra bitter kick and continually pitched the fresh hops over the last 20 minutes of the boil as I inspected and cleaned em up.
None left over for dry hop but it should hopefully still be tasty. I'll try to keep some around for November's meeting - maybe we can collectively figure out what hops i've stumbled upon :p
