Anyone braving today's date LOL and brewing today or this weekend? I just mashed in on an American Amber ale. Posted in the Recipe swap and using 1272. Hope everyone has a great weekend.

Was planning to brew tomorrow morning, but all the Hurricane weather kept me from getting everything ready. Getting pushed back a few days.Planning on a ten gallon batch of Ordinary Bitter on Monday after work. It will be my first batch in nearly two years!

Assuming I get enough work done on my bathroom remodel tonight, I plan on the following beer related activities this weekend.1. Brew a Moose Drool clone (out of the last BYO mag)2. Keg 3 gallons of a hard apple cider3. Finish cleaning some bottles4. Bottle half a batch of Scotch Ale and let the rest carbonate in the keg.There is motivation on the bathroom remodel because I may be able to use the vanity we are pulling out as a base for holding a lot of my brewing equipment, and purhaps put casters on it as part of a brew rig.

I have a 1272 starter cold crashing for Saturday or Sunday. Thinking it's time for my house RyePA, won't know until I start measuring grain.......... It's really one of my favorite yeasts, lots of possibilities........

DJ. That sounds good. I am thinking of squeezing a Rye PA in after I brew this version of an Amber ale tonight. I have not brewed with 1272 in a couple of years so I am looking forward to it. What temp do you find is the best with 1272. I am thinking to go 64-66 with this beer.

I have to rack a chinook pale to 2ndary and dry hop with some more chinook, maybe rack my dampfbier if it has finished, and since I have been making a lot of pales/spiced/estery stuff recently I think I will stick with a brown/robust porter with just water/barely/hops/yeast...I was thinking of going with the banana bread beer in the recipes, but I think i need to do something classic.

10 gal Amer pale. Next couple weekends tight, & need to have beer for the Chrismas Holidays.

I originally planned for Sunday. Now today is supposed to rain all day and nice tomorrow. I didn't get my starter ready in time to brew a scottish 80/- so that is going to have to wait. I do have an IPA fermentedwith belgian yeast to keg later. I'm a little anxious to see how that turned out.If I get bored later I may brew something with dry yeast, but the scottish ale really needs to wait for the right yeast.

I bottled an Oak aged, Spiced X-mas beer yesterday, and I'm brewing a Cane and Ebel clone tonight after I get back from a tasting...Hopefully I get to brew

Damn H1N1 flu is keeping me from brewing today. I had a 2206 starter cold crashed inanticipation of the fine weather we are currently getting. The weather is supposed to changeonce Ida arrives here Sunday. There is always next weekend though. I should be better by then.

I'm usually around 62 - 65 with that yeast. I think a bit warmer would be fine though.

Brewing MLPA and a stout today. Made the starters yesterday and I'm about to start the water on the stove top for the first one.

Launced my first (and St. Louis' first) sour ale, Funky Friday the 13th on Friday, a Flanders Red Ale. It was a huge hit.Today I'm kegging up the rest of my Pre-Pro Cream Ale and moving the APA.Monday I plan to brew a Smoked Imperial Brown Ale with that new cherry wood smoked malt from Briess and molasses.
