What are you doing with homebrew today?

[Zambi]

Tempted to pitch kveik instead of saison...
Temp in my cooler box is already 27 oC and that's without the fermenter inside....
And it is only 11.30 in the morning

Wow it's still so hot over these were starting to cool off now here in SE QLD.

 

[Zambi]

Yeah, it looked like cooling down, but not yet.
Anyway, pitched half a pack of Saison and put the baby speidel in the cooler.
OG reading with refracto about 12.5 close to what I wanted but with only about 65 % of the volume I was aiming for.
Fingers crossed. Now we wait.

We had snow yesterday. Had a heck of a time scraping the ice off my truck windows and the crazy city salted the roads.

Got the hops cleaned up and restrung today. Everything seems to have wintered well and is starting to send up shoots.

You can just about hear the cars rusting.

Been gurneying the patio and under the bar this morning. Man the underside wasn't pretty.

See that overflow hose yeah its manky all the beer spillage in the chest freezer makes its way out down the hose and onto the patio floor.

Well I've got plans to run a drain hose across the back wall then plumb that drain line into it so it drains down the storm water down pipe.

Then I can flush the keezer every now and then to keep the freezer and drain line clean.

I built a recipe to brew an American Wheat Beer, using Azacca hops.

Checking fermentation on the Light Yard Work golden ale I brewed yesterday. The White Labs Burlington Ale yeast is doing it’s job.
Pondering the next seltzer after consuming many gallons in short order.

 

[Josh Hughes]

Cleaning a fermentation keg later, after I get the last pint out of it. I always make a little extra.

 

[Zambi]

I just bottled my cider.
It was a long hard bottling day

 

[west1m]

My keg kicked yesterday so I grabbed the fermenter that lookes like it finished and refilled it. It's been a week and the Tilt looked like it should be good to go. Put it on my rocking horse at 30 poungs for ten minutes and stuffed it in the Kegerator. I'll try it out later today.

Last week my keezer crapped out, did not notice, it warmed up and everything got moldy!!!
So new keezer build and a lot of cleaning! I needed to replace the beer lines anyway.
Picked up a new 7cu ft pretty cheap at Home Depot. Garage rated to -17 so that’s good for me since mine is semi outdoors (doesn’t get that cold here in the south west of Canada……usually!)
Full build is a lot of work, not doing anything crazy, just a collar and five taps. I did go smaller size with larger collar, bu I’m putting a pulley system to get kegs in. Plus going to try and brew in next two days.

Just pitched Cellar Science CALI in the Sierra Nevada clone from morebeer.com "Cali Mountain Pale Ale"

Looking forward to seeing how you get on!

Not gonna be anything spectacular like you have done, mine sits down in the shed, but always gets a good impression from all my buddies when they find out they have to pull their own beer from the taps.

Blew the keg of Shady Boh today, kegged Shore Leave Cali Common, cleaned sanitzed keg and fermenter.

Just need to make the IPA disappear to make room in the keezer for everything else...
