Brewed a 10 Gal Brown Porter from BCS yesterday... pitched one dry yeast US04 English Ale on 5 gal and one liquid WLP007 Dry English Ale... the US04 is a machine while the WLP007 seems very slow to start.

Just mashed in on Stone Pale Ale. Trying out my new propane burner, have to enjoy the nice weather while I can!

What did you get?

A cheapo from Kent, http://www.kent.ca/kbs/en/product.jsp?p ... alogId=534

Had to compromise as there are a few others things I wanted for some of my other hobbies.

That's a good burner. I actually almost went with that one

I am happy with it so far! Have never had enough heat to actually boil over, so I was able to experience that today
It is also a nice height for lifting my pot off of, and not set the condo deck a blaze.

I bought one too, in august, but haven't actually used it yet.

[jtmwhyte]

Doing ~9 gallons of "The Masses' Cream Ale". Everyone who comes over guzzles this stuff so I figured I should have some up and running for the holidays.

Was thinking of doing a Northern German Pilsner from BCS http://beerdujour.com/Recipes/Jamil/Jam ... ilsner.htm" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; with New Zealand Hallertau (Wakatu)

Anyone know the water profile I should use for this beer?

I bumped into him at rock bottom three hours later and it was still mashing

That defoamer from the still spirits line definitely works. This is about 1/2 gallon headspace and no boilover

Winter Warmer with spruce and spice.

I'm hoping to continue my adventures in 1 gal. brewing. With any luck, before the weekend is through I will have done a BIAB no-sparge Simcoe IPA adapted from the Brooklyn Brew Shop recipe.

But to be honest, I'm just looking forward to sanitizing everything with Star San. Fuck ChloriClean.

American Honey Brown Ale on Sunday.

[jacinthebox]

Making a Noble Grape White (Wit) part grain/malt kit.

[Tim Gregory]

Just finished my lambic. Nine hour brew day.

[dexter]

Kegging my dogfish head clone and trying my hand at an oatmeal stout if I manage to stop playing black ops2

[Flynner]

I'll be doing a Chimay Red clone today.

Wow that is one clear APA Liam.

I just kegged a Helles that looked that clear only slightly darker. Into the lager chest for lagering at 2c for a few months.
I did put some in a 2 liter PET bottle to carb up with the Carbonator cap to try out later this week though

[canuck]

Brewing up a California Common. The recipe I'm using is out of the BCS book.

[jeffsmith]

Finally got a chance to brew an IPA today. Did 10 gallons for the first time and I've decided that I need to switch back to pellet hops from whole leaf, 16oz+ of dry whole leaf soaks up a lot of liquid.

[Graham.C]

I'm making the transition over to 10g and I think the same thing.
