Re: Meeting Idea
Maybe those that have brewed can go to the spreadsheet and mark the variety they used.Dirt Chicken wrote:I just checked the google doc, its showing 16 people signed up for it. If this is incorrect maybe somebody bailed, sheet wasn't updated I suppose?Stusbrews wrote:theres 15 signed up for it, so count on that many to swap, and a few to sample...so 4 doz should be enuf...

Re: Meeting Idea
Brewed mine on October 27. It's starting to clear out pretty well in the fermenter, haven't tasted or checked FG just yet though.

Re: Meeting Idea
I was late getting to mine, brewed just this Monday past. It might not be carbed in time for a December meeting but I can still deliver bottles so everyone can take some home with them. Who knows, maybe it will ferment out quickly.

Re: Meeting Idea
I was thinking of brewing mine this Thursday, which will be a about 4 weeks before the 'typical'' December meeting. That's enough to get it fermented, dry hopped, and into a keg (barely). I can't seem to follow what was decided for the meeting as far as 'sharing'. Seems that it got a bit complicated and nobody has taken charge (Gavin.. cough! haha). I'll probably brew it anyway, and if it works out that I can bring a growler and a few bottles (from the keg) great. If not, it'll still be good beer.

Re: Meeting Idea
No dry-hopping necessary & we were planning on bringing 1 bottle for everyone involved (15) to take home + a couple for the meeting.TimG wrote:I was thinking of brewing mine this Thursday, which will be a about 4 weeks before the 'typical'' December meeting.

Re: Meeting Idea
Ok, so let 'me' try to summarize;
Recipe;
1.056 OG
94% 2 row
6% C60
35IBU @ 60 min
12 IBU @ 20 min
2 oz @ flameout
Need 15 x small bottles + bomber/growler for meeting in early/mid December (preferrably on a weekend!)
So should be lots of time for folks to make these still, and I guess I'll make it on Thursday.

Re: Meeting Idea
Not that it makes a huge difference, but grain bill should be:
94% 2-Row
6% C60
94% 2-Row
6% C60

Re: Meeting Idea
I've updated the spreadsheet a bit, I hope that's OK. Please fill in the details as you get them, guys!
http://goo.gl/rCjGT" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
And we should now start talking about availability for December tasting. Are we aiming for mid-month? And I think we're aiming for a Fri or Sat event, so we can enjoy a bit more than at a Tuesday event.
Dec 7/8, 14/15 or 21/22?

Re: Meeting Idea
I'd like to switch back to Northern Brewer. I just finished my pound of Cascade and I think I'm Cascaded out... I'm going to pick up a pound of Northern Brewer today. Is this going to be an issue?

The chinook hops are quite nice. Fruity but a unique spiciness at the same time.
