Who is brewing, right now?

Finally brewing! American Pale Ale for a sushi rolling party at the house in a couple of weeks. As usual I will begin brewing with the best intentions of hitting all my numbers, and by the time I'm boiling I'll be a total mess and I won't care about numbers or measurements anymore. I got some Servomyces. I'll see how that works. Maybe my fermentation can once again rescue me. I've got Hop Stoopid, Sierra Nevada Rye IPA (Never seen that before), Sierra Nevada Porter, Victory Headwaters Pale Ale, and my own homebrew. Here's the recipe that I will soon destroy:

OG 1.052
IBU 35
150-152 degree mash

10# Rahr 2-Row
1.2# Weyermann Dark Munich (10L)
.4# Honey malt
.4# Victory malt

.35 oz German Magnum 60 min
.45 oz US Fuggle 30 min
.5 oz Centennial 10 min
.5 oz Amarillo 10 min
.5 oz Centennial 0 min (10 minute whirlpool)
.5 oz Amarillo 0 min (10 minute whirlpool)

Yeast is 1 vial each of WLP 029 and WLP001 in a 1.25 liter starter...029 for flavor and 001 because it's a reliable attenuator. Servomyces and whirlfloc at 10 minutes. Ferment @ 67-68 degrees.

Sorry for the late post. Brewed an IPA yesterday and split the batch between 1056 Am ale and 3711 Saison yeasts.
Hopped with Chinook, Columbus, Amarillo and Citra. I'm so excited! <----Aaron

I'm not kidding...that sounds good. Post how that one comes out.

I'll be firing the kettles in about 8-9 hours (depending how bad of a mess I find when I get to work). Doing a test batch on the new mashtun. Doing a twist on an American Amber. If there's no major problems I'll be tweaking another recipe for a Monday brew.

Ninkasi's mad at me for my brewing hiatus apparently. The guys in the shop were late by an hour & a half, I got to my 2nd set of customers & the construction assholes didn't pick up after themselves, popped a tire, had to do the last 80 miles at a crawl on the spare. Called the tire shop where I bought them & they wanted to charge me $200 for a simple patch because it was Sunday. I told him to stop smoking crack & to shove that tire patch up his ass until he could taste it. Luckily WallyWorld's tire department opened at 8 & was able to do it for $10, but there was an hour wait from a bunch of jobs ahead of me.

Looks like the test run will have to be tomorrow & the other batch on Tuesday

LET THERE BE FIRE!

Fuckin' finally.

Do starters count?

If not, then I have a 2L Basic American Ale fermenting right now.

Test run #2. I have such love/hate feelings about new gear. Fuckin' feelings.
