I have two weeks holiday as of yesterday and I'm planning to go nuts and replenish the beer stocks since I haven't been able to brew for a while....
Just sparging a Mild for entry in Bitter and Twisted, if it's any good I'll post the recipe. gonna do a double decoction Munich lager this arvo, and in between bottle a Trippel I've had in secondary for 7 bloody weeks....
Tomorrow I'm finally going to brew my NSW case swap Wee Heavy, and next week I'm going to construct my brewstand and put my rig together and try and get my keg freezer/font together... *draws breath*
If time permits I reckon I might have a crack at a Schwarzbier, an Oktoberfest and a CAP next week...

G'day Brad, sorry I didn't see this until someone gave me a gentle prod...
It turned out ok from tasting early samples, but I'm going to do the same recipe this week with a double decoction mash schedule, similar to a schedule that somebody posted a link to on here somewhere of a guy double decocting a Marzen on youtube. From memory I think his user name was KaiserBrau or something like that...

Oops. I left a kilo of Munich out by accident. Ended up around 1.080 rather than 1.091. I'm trying to decide whether to pick up a tin of dark malt extract tomorrow and add it to the batch, or to simply leave things as is. It'll still be a nice strong porter, but I wanted something to lay down for a year before drinking.

Today I start something I have been wanting to do for some time now, a Perpetual Flanders Red Barrel Program. :lol:
This brew will eventually go into a 50L barrel along with a second one. Each year half of the barrel will be emptied into a keg or bottles and filled back up with a new batch. Guess I won't know the results for another 2 years. <_<

just kegged my second ever brew, Coopers Real Ale. filled keg to about 18-19L and hit it quick with the gas then released all pressure.
put it in the fridge, now waiting for it to get down to a good enough temp to smash it with c02 and force carb it.

Just two days into these, Bitter Ale and Euro Lager, both Coopers tins but only to 21litre odd... added only inverted sugar which i left to long on the stove and it was almost toffee.
Funny doing a lager and an ale next to each other in the outside world, these ferment rain, hale or shine. Not to long though before I temp control my ferment.

Careful there, SB. Sunlight will skunk beer that's outside like that leaving it pretty much undrinkable. I hope you've got those covered in something. :huh:

chill out guys, took the two towels off to take a photo. They live next to a creek under many trees so not much sunlight getting through anyhow
thanks for the concern anyhow! In fact, when I took the photo the sunlight that you see is about the only light that gets through all day and its patchy. I used to ferment on the other side of the cabin in direct morning sun with the sun visors and beach towels as protection. The ones you get for your car but I stopped doing this as it used to warm the ferment up to much.
After our wedding beers that i brewed im no longer worthy of the kitchen bench to ferment so next to the cabin it is.
