Nothing for me.. it's all NHC, all of the time.

For those of you not crazy enough to be in Seattle?

quality testing for me this weekend.

[madscientist]

Monday's my birthday, I'm off from work and brewing up a pseudo-Oktoberfest with Wyeast 2124 at ale temps. Can't wait.

[cheba420]

No brewing. We have a batch of Amber to keg up and I just got a beer gun. Gonna test it on a few bottles this weekend.

No brewing.  I have four fermenters (five, if you include the sauerkraut). going right now.  Berliner Weisse is souring, Bohemian Pilsner is lagering on primary yeast, Saison is in primary, and Bass clone in primary (did I mention sauerkraut? ).  Will be out of town anyway.

Trying my hand at a Russian River Blind Pig IPA Clone. 

Since this is oaked and an IPA that should be enjoyed somewhat young, when should I add the oak chips? I was thinking just after the krausen collapses but before I DH... Thoughts?

Witbier for me.  If I didn't have a wedding to go to, I'd probably brew an IPA too.

FYI RR no longer uses oak in Bling Pig. That is there old recipe from years ago. So if you are looking for a clone of what they do these days Zymergy has recipe in this months mag.

No brewing this weekend the conference. Brewed a Brown Ale on Tuesday though.

Its RIS weekend!

Tweaking my recipe from last year, plus padding the efficiency/yield numbers a bit to have enough for splitting and aging on fruit/oak.

Hopefully kegging/tasting a split batch of English mild. Testing 1469/1968 for future batches of cask ale.

Saturday, Porter for the Club only in August.

Cool, I just got the latest issue last night and havent had a chance to skim it yet.
Your right, I found an old recipe and was planning to do a split batch with/with out the oak.

Going to make my second attempt at decoction.  This time with a Hefeweizen. 

I also plan on hitting a tap room or two in the thriving metropolis of Birmingham, AL Friday night.

[erockrph]

No brewing, but will be serving up a bunch of my homebrew at a cookout for the first time. Got to taste the weizens first tomorrow to make sure they're carbed up enough. Didn't brew anything for the light lager crowd though, so I'll probably need to get some Red Stripe or Harpoon Summer for them.
