What's everyone brewing?

[Jimmy]

Becky and I brewed 20 liters of cold brew coffee yesterday.

[Keith]

Brewed a Citra, Columbus and Centennial IPA yesterday. 35oz of hops in a 10 gallon batch.

This IPA was delicious.

Just about. I'll finish the remainder tonight.

So do you put the bucket in the fridge or do you keg it? How will that last?

[Jimmy]

Bucket at room temp for 24 hours, then transferred to a keg.

From what I've read, a month in the keg shouldn't be an issue.

Brewing up an american wheat with some oats added in , Amarillo hops and London Ale 3 yeast.

Citra smash IPA with 2-row. Finally. First brew in the new Grainfather. In fact, first all-grain period. Looking forward to this one...

[mumblecrunch]

Made my planned APA. Used a little Warrior for FWH bittering but the rest was all Amarillo. Final volume might be a touch low but otherwise I pretty much my hit all my numbers dead on.

The first all grain batch is always the best! Also don't anticipate on it lasting long haha.

Thanks Mike. There's so much hop in this sucker that I feel like the chiller will be running all night. Slooooowwww!!!! Hope I don't run my well dry...

Other than that, my first all grain was a great experience. Thanks for your help and advice!

Just turn the tap down a bit. While you are recirculating it keep turning the tap down until the temp of the wort coming out the tube starts to rise, then turn the tap back up a smidge. You get maximum chilling for the least amount of water.

Turns out that there was a few inches of hop sludge on the bottom of the boiler, completely burying the filter and temperature probe. Gave it a bit of a stir and the temp dropped immediately (wort was cool, trub not so much). Tried knocking it out to my primary, but there was zero flow - too much hops. Filter was buried. Literally. Surprised I didn't burn the motor out. Ended up siphoning wort out of the boiler the old fashioned way.

So, lesson learned: mesh bags for seriously hoppy beers (in this case, between boil and hop stand I had 180g of Citra in that batch.)

I anticipate a slightly smoother experience with next weekend's Berliner Weisse. Only 10g of Mosaic before that one hits the filter. Then more for dry hop...

[jtmwhyte]

doing an APA this morning

[Lisa J]

This weekend I will try a Berliner Weisse with Mosaic dry hop. First attempt at kettle souring. Following Jimmy's guidance:

It's an Epic beer that's for sure!
Check with him to see if he's changed his process any. I believe it's evolved a bit, or his beers have been that much better haha.

Geez... You guys are setting the bar kinda high, here. Hoping I get something drinkable out of it.

I'm brewing with spring water - the well water is a little too harsh. Are most of you adjusting water chemistry? (I'm not that advanced yet!!)

[mumblecrunch]

Don't have a brew day scheduled but now I desperately want to because my Amazon order of brew toys came in:



(On a related note, I'll have a refractometer for sale shortly; it's non-ATC but it works fine)
