So Whats Brewing Next?

[Boots]

In the fermenter I have:

1 x Ginger Beer (kits and bits)
1 x Partial (that should read mostly) mash Brown ale that is verging on porter using challenger, and a comb of 1056, and Nottingham yeasts *don't ask* - tastes great

Coming up:

Well, I just bought a grain mill, and today fell over a sack of pilsener malt, so I reckon the brew for the weekend:

1 x Part Mash Mountain Goat Pale Ale clone.

 

[Trent]

Jeez, sounds like theres some corker beers out there, and a few more coming up. Doc, tell me, how did ya ABA clone go? Interested to find out.
Anyway, in my fermenters right now are a coopers pale kit, and a robust porter
Upcoming brews are an IPA and ESB, then maybe a smoked porter and an american brown.
Too many beers to choose from, and not enough fermenters. On the horizon are an ABA, a russian imperial, a barleywine and a sierra nevada celebration ale. Then maybe brew up copies of my favourite ones out of what I already have.
Cheers
Trent

A few weeks back coles were getting rid of all the savings brand brew kits due to new "labelling".
One day they were $2 each , I picked up 3.
2 days later they were $1 each. I took em all. 4 left by then.
I cant help a cheap bargain like that.
I want to try and do another one of these 2 can jobs with some Wyeast 2007 before the weather gets any warmer.
Then I can see a couple more 2 can ales coming up. I have plenty of hops and yeast.

At that price, johnno, why stop at 2-can. Sky is limit... world is oyster etc...

Go the seven-can screamer, I reckon.

Trent,

The ABA clone went really well. Is tasting really good with lots and lots of hop aroma. For the recipe see Page 3 of this thread

Beers,
Doc

I just bottled my cascade lager kit, nice and clear out of the cube, and doesnt taste as horrendous as everyone else makes out.

I currently have my partial bock in CC, my partial pilsner having a little diacetly rest, and my blackcurrant cordial based girly rocket fuel is bibbling away.

I think next will be something sweet and maly, like a nut brown. Or I may try to squeeze one more lager in before it gets too warm.

 

[Jazman]

just bottled nrth german pils

octoberfest

A malty hahn premium clone

Rauch Bier

cirtus esb

munton imperial stout


k+K milk stout


in the fermentors


dortmunder clone

czech pils



next is a belhaven st andrews clone

then another apa followed by a stout or a porter

 

[wee stu]

Next to brew is the AG Czech Pilsner (finally) - though it may end up being Bohemian (borderline German?) as I am suddenly saaz challenged - partial substitution with Hersbrucker looks likely - not ideal , but I have to brew!!.

After that a Duvel clone from the "Belgians are Easy" section of the last brewing book I bought - I only hope he is right!

In 2ndary - Road Kill Amber - AG - all aussie malts and POR hopping

Crying out to be bottled - JSB's Mad Stomp Scottish Ale - AG - this week, JSB, I promise!!

Bottle conditioning - Eurilpa Bitter - AG - first one off the rank, I am trying hard to be patient.

Almost ready to drink - 2 Can Mock Bock Part Mash Coopers Bavarian Lager (the brew where I ceremonially through the tin opener away!!)

Will never be ready to drink - Monky Marzen - PM Oktoberfest made at a certain HBS in May - sadly stuffed by hot side airation and cruel treatment (haven't quite summoned up the energy to open them and pour them away yet)

Almost gone - Kits and Bits Robust Porter (although it is half preserved in Coke Buddies for next season's Crows games)

Lurking in the back of the fridge - Newkleer Broon Ale - Grumpys extra brew with fuggles dry hopping - 5 longnecks left


That's all folks!!

deebee,
I think i'll leave the seven can screamer for posters on another beer forum.
I have 20 kilos of DME that I'm trying to brew up as well but I want to get some grain at least for that. Lots of partial mashes coming up.

cheers

 

[Bobby]

on keg i have an ESB 3kg Australian Draught and an ESB 3kg Bavarian Lager. Have a ESB Fresh Wort Pilsener brewed withWLP802 lagering and a ESB 3kg Czech Pils brewing with the same yeast. Got another ESB fresh wort waiting to be brewed this time is the amber ale.

 

[dreamboat]

Looking to brew an oatmeal stout over the next few days, there seems to be a thousand recipes around for this, but I will look towards the pointy end of the guidelines, lots of malt, and well hopped with EKG.
After that will be a bock and another IPA - the last IPA is really good, but cloudy.... should have remembered to drop the little pill into the boil with ten minutes to go as I usually do...
Probably try to max out my system for all these brews, which is about 8kg of grain, to get the largest quantity of beer for the effort.

I'm still fairly new to this, but seeing all of you guys with multiple fermenters going at once will be good ammo to convince my CFO that I need to buy a couple more rather than relying on just one .

Anyway, I'm just about to bottle a partial mash ale which was:

1.5kg Morgans Unhopped Pale Malt Extract
1kg Light Malt Extract
1kg Ale Malt Grain
250gm Crystal Malt Grain
50gm UK Progress Hop Pellets
Safale S-04 Yeast
1 Teaspoon Irish Moss

What would this be similar to in some of the names described in previous posts? :huh:

Unfortunately it will be the last as we move to Sydney at the end of September, so I'm drinking down all my stock as the removalists won't transport it , but will get to start over again in early October and build the stock up again

Cheers - Duff.

Thread Resurrection. !!!

My Czech pils is bubbling away tonight after a tense couple of daze @ 10C.

Recipe as in BYO March-April 2004, scaled to 23 litres.

So it took me a while to get here. Sue me. As Hunter S. said, "If a job's worth doing, it's worth doing right".
Extended boil, triple decoction, Weyermann Bohemian Pils malt, Czech Saaz hops - pellets for the bitterness and plugs for flavour and aroma, W2278 yeast - 3 litre culture.

If I may so rude, it tastes great already. Goes close to Kozel pils, so it's likely to be good or better. I'd like to aim for Budweiser (the beer of Kings, not the king of beers) at some stage. Just love the Budvar/Czechvar/whatever they have to name it to sell it here, coz the Septics registered the name first here. Doooon't get me started on this one.

Also have a Leffe Blond clone with SAF-33 Belgian dry yeast and an ESB Belgian Ale on Wyeast Abbey II (Rochefort, some say). Gonna be a happy boy! :beer:

Seth out :beerbang:

 

[JasonY]

Always a good subject

Fementing a pils, hopefully as tasty as the last I brewed, although giving some saaz b a run this time.

Next will be an english bitter, goinf to try the wyeast ringwood ale on this one. Following that I will probably go a hefewiezen so its ready for the warmer weather.

What a great hobby! :beer:

 

[Doc]

Geez, talk about bring a post back from the dead.
Sounds like a good brew Weizeguy.

I brewed a Chocolate Porter last weekend and plan to brew a HefeRyeizen (Pils + Rye + Wheat) on Wednesday night.

Beers,
Doc
