Yesterday got my Lakeline Lager into the secondary and stashed away for 6-8 weeks @ 35*, then kegged up the Nashville Traveling Red for the trip.

I'm brewing a Hex nut Brown ale extract from Midwest. I wanted to get a pic. at the peak of the hot break and I cut it close.

I put the camera down and pulled it without a boil over but it was close.

Just brewed my Cream Ale recipe that was a big hit last summer. Made a couple minor tweaks to see if I can dial it in just a bit more.

Gonna keg the Amber's Amber Lager tomorrow, and then on Sunday I'm brewing a fiver of FedoraDave's American Ale.

And I'm impatiently waiting for the Trilby Brown Ale to condition.

Just kegged a batch of Smooth Rye'd IPA. It spent the last 5 days with a dry hop of my favorite hop combo of Amarillo & Simcoe.

Mashed grains last night for 5 gallon Brown Ale and this morning mashing grains for 8 gallon Amarillo-Nelson Sauvin Pale Ale to do a double boil later this morning.

Brewing my first stout! It's going to be a coffee stout to which I may or may not add coffee to the secondary depending on the flavor profile I get with just the grain bill. Here's the recipe.

Edit: this is the most amazing smelling mash I've ever done!

I brewed a session IPA like thing I called "Das Cascadian" since it's all Belgian/German malts, and all Cascade hops.

Brewed the Mr B Astro Nut Brown ale this afternoon. This is the first Mr B recipe from them that involves steeping grains and a hop boil. Was still very quick and easy; done in less than an hour. The wort tasted good. Will see how it turns out.

I brewed a Bengal in the Rye this afternoon

Getting my boil on 6 G Brown Ale and 8.5 G Nelson-Amarillo Pale Ale

Dude, do you ever sleep?

Finally brewing the (supposed to be ready for the February meet-up, but am brewing way too late for that) Nashville Pre-Prohibition Amber Ale today. Almost done with the boil. Good to be brewing again...

Boil didn't happen Saturday, but had all the wort ready to go this morning.

Bottled my Winter Warmer, brewed with juicer berries and spices.
