Re: What's everyone making this weekend?
Add a bit of Orange zest to the poolside, it was great as it was, but I wonder how the zest would play out. Just think then you would have a White Poolside Blonde. lolGuingesRock wrote:Making another poolside Blonde this afternoon (2nd one).

Re: What's everyone making this weekend?
Are you talking about making it into a witbier? I'd need un-malted wheat in there also wouldn't I? coriander as well as orange peel? Where do you get un-malted wheat? What kind of yeast? I might have a go at that. I was just reading up on it.Keith wrote:Add a bit of Orange zest to the poolside, it was great as it was, but I wonder how the zest would play out.

Re: What's everyone making this weekend?
Be careful with grain temps - I mashed in 10F higher because I left my grain sitting in the sun for an hour or two before mashing in. Easily and quickly corrected with a litre of cold tap water but still.

Re: What's everyone making this weekend?
Slow night at the house so i'm brewing up a pale ale 
"Twenty years ago — a time, by the way, that hops such as Simcoe and Citra were already being developed, but weren’t about to find immediate popularity — there wasn’t a brewer on earth who would have gone to the annual Hop Growers of American convention and said, “I’m going to have a beer that we make 4,000 barrels of, one time a year. It flies off the shelf at damn near $20 a six-pack, and you know what it smells like? It smells like your cat ate your weed and then pissed in the Christmas tree.” - Bell’s Brewery Director of Operations John Mallet on the scent of their popular Hopslam.

Goldilocks would be a better name for a Blonde, but I might stick with it.

Re: What's everyone making this weekend?
Brewing this evening for a wedding in Cape Breton on the 23rd. Tonight is a double batch of Kolsch and tomorrow will be a double batch of Irish Red. 120 Liters for the weekend, not too shabby

I want to make a kolsch this fall. My temperature control is still based on the temperature of my basement though, so tomorrow's beer is Belgian blonde.

I will drain that glass again.
Such hilarious visions clamber

I am drinking ale today." ~ Poe
