Chilling a Northern German Altbier with magnum for bittering. Looking forward to a sessionable malty beer in about 6 wks. or so. Bring on the fall!

I just brewed a Scottish 80/- last night. First beer brewing session in way too long. I will have to brew again shortly since this batch is promised to the Nebraska Stroke Association beerfest benefit coming up next month. http://www.fourstargifts.com/Gifts/Home ... t_2010.php

Next up will be a cider this afternoon and then a wee heavy in a couple weeks using the yeast cake from the 80/-.

About to dough in a Belgian blonde. JZ's recipe but with Maris Otter as I just realized I'm out of Pilsner malt. It'll be beer. Ommegang yeast.

Tasty's APA. Mash is complete, albeit at 152F instead of 154F, but I also made some hop substitutions, so we'll call this Mike Todd's Tasty APA instead of Mike McDole's. Heading out to sparge now.

I am sparging a strong wheat ale right now with 2 lbs. wheat malt and 13 lbs of 2-row. I am planning on using Centennial, Soriachi Ace, and Cascade in the boil. I am trying to max out my insulated bottling bucket mash tun. I thought it could only hold 12 lbs, but 15 fit with no problem.

I think I jinxed myself with that post last night! After I started the boil I broke my hydrometer and stripped the threads of my kitchen sink chiller adapter. I ended up running the garden hose into the kitchen to cool the wort. Oh, well, at least I hit my target of 1.070.
