Warren, that looks like it will be a very tasty, full flavored mid strength beer, can you let me know how it turns out?

I don't know what to call this beer I brewed yesterday, it's a one hop one malt variety, Summer ale ?

Will do Andrew, thanks... Whole idea was to create a Dark Mild (one of my faves) that's a little outside the box. To quote the Iron Chef I'm using two challenge ingredients. :lol: Caramel Rye and NZ Goldings whole hops.

Summer Ale looks Cascade-a-licious Andrew. B)

Nice one, TDA. I used Pac Gem in a weizenbock on friday, it's fermenting merrily away right now.

 

[brendanos]

I'm brewing a Super Saison to get a second run out of the Biere De Garde yeast that would otherwise be getting bored when I rack the BDG in preperation for the garding. From what I understand Fantome use it for mostly Saison's anyway.

Super Saison

1.073 in 23L @ 65% efficiency (have been sparging minimally lately => low numbers)
40IBU calculated (prob closer to 30 on my system)

6.5kg (78%) W Pils
0.6kg (7.2%) W Munich I
0.4kg (5%) JW Wheat
0.2kg (2.5%) Unmalted Wheat

0.6kg Dextrose (added halfway into fermentation)

FWH 50g Hallertau Tradition Pellets (3.7%)
FWH 10g Horizon Pellets (9.3%)
15mins 10g Nelson Sauvin Pellets (12.2%)
2mins 20g Nelson Sauvin Pellets (12.2%)

Currently stressing over the Dupont mash schedule (constant heating from 45C up to 72C over 108 minutes). Every time I hit a hot spot with the thermometer I kill the gas and freak out, then after some stirring realise I was overreacting.

 

[tangent]

MkII of my dunkelweizen today
kegging, filtering, tweaking and cleaning as well.
maybe time for a small beer every 20 minutes

 

[NickB]

Thought a Monday Morning brew was in order (due to night shift tonight!)

Just waiting for the kettle to boil on my "Noosa Nelson" - An all Nelson Sauvin brew, with 90% Ale malt, 10% Flaked Maize, and a liberal dosing of Nelson hops... Yum!

 

[kook]

From what I understand Fantome use it for mostly Saison's anyway.

I wouldn't create a recipe then. Just pick some grains at random, and find things in your kitchen to throw into the boil

Fantome create some incredibly awesome beers. But they're about as consistant as a politician.

Just finished an AAA this afternoon. MY first using my new 60 lt pot. So much eaiser to do a double batch. I previously used a 30lt urn as my kettle and had to split the first runnings and sparge and do 2 boils which made it a PITA. Very happy doing one boil only now

Hahaha :lol: I take it you tried these in Belgium? The more I read about them, the more I think that they're my kind of brewery!

 

[Screwtop]

Doing a Hop burst IIPA tomorrow using left over bits of grain and some leftover hops. The hop mix is
Warrior 8g
Perle 16g
Nelson Sauvin 12g
Simcoe 12g
Should make for an interesting mix. I am also going to dry hop one lot of mix for 3 days then add another lot of the mix for 3 days. This brew should keep me pretty close to the kettle and the scales.
