Me too, just put down a hoppy pale ale last Sunday. Will probably make a ginger beer this weekend.

Yes mate!

Fired up a Yeast starter this arve with WP-01 for another Pale Ale tomorrow.

Simple Grain bill:-
4Kg Joe White pils Malt.
1/2kg Flaked Maize.
1/2 kg Wheat Malt.

30Gr PoR Flowers for 60 mins. (would normally use Galaxy Flowers)
30gr Amarillo pellets for 5 mins.

14 to 21 day ferment (depending on when I get time) at 18 degrees.
Rack & filter.
Cold condition for as long as it takes me to empty another Keg.
Filter into Keg & bottle any excess.

Lawnmower/session beer!

Regular recipe.

In the next few days, yes. 5 packs of WY1026 cask ale for a large batch of RIS. Smacked, will make a starter tomorrow.

And this from a few weeks ago.

100L barrels, one full of RIS, the other Imperial Rauchbier.

Very nice. How long do you leave them in the barrels for?

Plan is to leave them be till November/December. Last year i wasn't as organised so the beers only spent 6 months in barrel. Aiming for 8-9 months this time.

Almost 3 months since I last brewed, so it was time to get into the garage and get back into it.

Odd ball brew, made up the recipe on the fly with what I had on hand. Probably closest to an American Wheat of sorts. It'll be beer, and it'll drink well, so who cares about styles?

2000 gr dark wheat weyermann
1240 gr golden promise floor malted thomas fawcett
760 gr premium pilsner weyermann
200 gr carabohemian weyermann

10 gr MHB bittering hops 60 min
20 gr cascade 10 min
15 gr galaxy flameout

Yeast nutrient and BrewBrite.

No water treatment, except it came from my kitchen tap filter.

WLP001 starter

21 litres OG 1.055 IBU 24

Wheat milled seperately first, then added to other grains and all milled together again.

100 min mash, 90 min boil

I dusted off the Braumeister yesterday and brewed an American Brown Ale with cascade and citra.

it was a fun day, I may do it again sometime

Brewed again yesterday.
Been trying to clone Innis & Gunn's wood aged Scottish beer.
First time I think I got the grain bill about right but didn't oak it long enough.
This time, fingers crossed I'll get it right.

Good to see someone is brewing. Been a while for me.
