Better get your skates on, ambient temperatures are getting below 25c.

 

[Fatgodzilla]

Got a heater that will keep constant 26C.

Will actually be a dark beer of some sort - have one lagering and and ale fermenting as we speak.

Just mashed in for this today. Aiming to wet hop with over 1kg of a combination of home grown cascade and goldings with amarillo for bittering and at 15. Yeast will be White Labs 001

 

[contrarian]

This was the hop stand. 500g of goldings and 800g of cascade wet hops into 23L. Hopefully it turns out alright!

 

[shacked]

My stout stalled at 1.028 and is chugging away with some fresh 001. I'm not keen on putting that in a bottle so I'm going to switch my contribution out to a Belgian pale ale.

[marksy]

****, I better start brewing soon!

 

[Weizguy]

I have chosen a Kellerbier. Was thinking of low carbonation rather than flat.
Is there a preference for oaked or un-oaked? Just pitched my yeast, and stirred with a drill powered paint stirrer. The beer looks creamy right now.
*edit: About 6 cm headspace in the Brew Bucket. Hope the ferment stays controlled at 10-11° C

[welly2]

I've been drinking my oatmeal stout and so will be brewing something else. Maybe a Tooheys clone.

 

[Dan Pratt]

Brew the oatmeal again and bottle it for us!! Lol

 

[Weizguy]

Brew the oatmeal again and bottle it for us!! Lol

+1 for the stout, if it forced you to try and exclude us with consumptive zeal.

Oaked or unoaked for my Kellerbier?

 

[welly2]

I'll brew the Stout again! This batch is pretty good and will give me some ideas of where to improve!

Oaked for me!

 

[Dan Pratt]

Can you split batch and oak half?
