Re: What's everyone making this weekend?
Just finished 10 gallons of Irish Brown ale and 10 gallons of Chocolate "Ale", filling up on propane in the morning.

Why brew beer I can buy?

You two brewing at home again? that's great.
Busy today with my beer, didn’t dare brew in case the power went out, but set up for a brew tomorrow, ordinary bitter "Brit Bit". Made a yeast starter (West Yorkshire ale yeast) and ground up the grain. I kegged the second half of last week’s blonde ale “G’day, this keg had raspberries in the secondary. I put my new IPA “More” in the keezer to chill and carbonate, thought I’d have a taste, and ended up drinking a full glass. It may best beer yet, it's like "Three" but more bitter, more ABV and has centennial as well.
I'm going to pitch the whole starter at high krauesn tomorrow ...enough of this f'in around chilling, sanitizing mason jars, decanting etc.

Re: What's everyone making this weekend?
Braving a "storm brew" today too!
We're brewing at home again...tends to happen in fits and spurts, and it's usually just notched into a day between housework and the whack of other projects we're trying to finish up.
Glad to hear your "More" is tasty, Mark.

Made an APA this morning before the snow hit. A bit chilly, but nothing we can't handle. Chione Pale Ale is resting comfortably in the fermenter.

I would bottle a barley wine, they take forever to become good and you do not want to take up a keg for a year

I was going to secondary ferment and force carb in kegs, then bottle with Blichmann gun and put bottles in basement.

Re: What's everyone making this weekend?
Both my kegs went dry this week
I have a Pumpkin Ale fermenting now and when that finishes, I plan to brew a Pilsner again.
Take care, Bluefin.
