Who's brewing?

[artiums_enteri]

Just curious who's brewing this weekend. There is nothing like huddling around the burners, listening to the brewing network, and talking to other brewers.

Saturday we are kegging my oaked double IPA and my wife's oaked RIS. Sunday we are brewing my wife's steam beer. It's supposed to be cold and rainy so I'll be bundled up puffing dunhill 965 out of my favorite Peterson as the burners roar like jet engines. Hope some of you folks are around to keep me company.

I'm planning a Caledonian 80/- recipe tomorrow morning. I've not made an 80/- for a couple of years so really looking forward to it.

Have a good brew. :thumb:

Hey Rick I have a Belgian Witt recipe that has done pretty well, and has a lot of the blue moon characters, but with a little more body. I usually brew it in the summer time as its a great working in the yard beer. It is kind of a cross between blue moon and howgaden. Let me know if you are interested.

I'd love that recipe if you don;t mine? Sounds exactly like somethign I had in mind!! :thumb:

^ me too - sounds great, I like the fact that wheat beer needs very little conditioning time :lol: :drink: :drink:

No problem. I will post it in the recipe section of the forum after I get some sleep. It's 1:45 am here, and all my recipes are out in the brewery in the journal.

On a side note it makes me chuckle. Blue moon is a coors product, and thought of as mediocre beer over here. It's a good style nonetheless.

I love the fact you have a half bbl kit at home...I want one for work, did it cost much for the tanks?

Started late but my water is heating for the mash for my chocolate espresso stout. Grain all measured out, cocoa ready. As soon as mash is on, its cheesy toast time!

 

[adrianmole72]

Boil just on for my top dog stout clone...got a load of grain, so I'm doing 4 brews over the next few weeks, ready for the summers celebrations.
