What are you brewing II ?

[tangent]

Zwickel, how do you get your female friends to drink your Corona clone when they're not in dick shaped bottles? Surely without the boutique bling, it's just cheap maize beer in a glass??

basically youre right tangent, but a Corona Clone cannot be a Corona Clone if served in ordinary beer glasses. Once I bought a case of original Corona and since then Im keeping all the bottles for my own Corona Clone, just to preserve the style and also Im going to serve it with a slice of lime.

Cheers mate

Nice one TDA, my first & one of my favourite summer ales...

cheers Ross

Ross, the grainbill is pretty much the same as yours and I reckon it should go well.
Looking forward to having it on tap. Have you tried it solely with Challenger hops?

Yes mate - Inspired by a brew called Catapult from the now defunct Porchester Brewery in England.
It's a beautiful single hopped ale....

In my old faithful esky we double decoction mashed a doppelbock that i will (can i say it) no-chill h34r:

We named it Sticky Fingers Bock because we were dipping our fingers into the 1.102 first runnings to taste it (you could have put it on icecream) and our fingers were sticky.

Gravity in the kettle was 1.075 before i started boiling and a gentle 90 min to 2 hr boil should see the target 1.110 gravity achieved. 18 liters of it in a 33 liter esky. not bad hey.

Summer quaffer for Bindi but the biggest beer i have ever brewed.

So its been buisy here. The bock took forever to sparge and a long boil + decoctions has taken a while. Still have to clean out the rig tonight and will run the bock into the cube to firment another day when i have strong lager yeast on hand.

cheers

 

[schooey]

Mate I don't know why you say 'we', you did all the work, I was just lucky enough to be able to watch and learn. Thanks again and it was great to meet you too. Those two brews looked and smelled fantastic.

Cheers again..

 

[Tony]

ended up boiling it for 120 min..... got 1.112 .......AG. No sugar!

will run it to the 17 liter cube after we shower the kids ect to see hoy much i got but i think it will be on the money...... Schooey, its just below that line we drew on the dipstick and i acounted an extra liter for just such a contingency

cheers

 

[schooey]

Mate that's going to be one big beer. I hope you can manage to save me a bottle for chrissy 2009

I can still smell it.

After a bit of a hiatus brewed a 100% Pils Pils yesterday, and a Schwarzbier today. Both with 2278 czech pils yeast.

Probably back up with an English ale of some sort tomorrow(maybe 100% progress hops).
