got 2 batches to bottle...but the Gravity is still too high. Got a 3rd that's only bubbling for a little over a week. Nothing special, just a Red Nong and a Nong IPA

Another cider today...

This one is a Berliner Cider-Weisse... a cider fermented with berliner weisse yeast blend, and secondaried with Ahtanum hops and grapefruit zest. Should be fun to taste this one around the holidays...

My first thought is - Gawd that's going to be (really really) sour unless you back sweeten it a bit.

Well, it will certainly be dry... And sour... Very tart at least.

Could stop the fermentation short so it doesn't ferment out as much... Or backsweeten as Mash suggests...

Don't think I'ld care for it without either of the above...

But is does sound interesting... Makes me want to do another Applewine or a straight up Berlinerweiss!

Brewed a Muntons Connoisseur's Wheat w/Hull Mellon hop aditions

Mmm Perle is smelling good today

I kegged my Levitation yesterday so no other brewing plans this weekend.

I just bottled 12 off the keg of my Session Simply Simarillo for the Asheville trip.

Bottling a 5 gal batch of my Middletown Pale Ale for the AG class end of next month.

Bottled 5 gallons of Ring Your Bell Brown, a Bell's Best Brown clone.

Brewed a BSG extract kit called a Red Rye. http://bsghandcraft.com/index.php/red-r ... g-kit.html to which I added 1# of extra light DME to do the hop boils in.

First brew of the year for me...

Belgian Summer IPA...

(Ok, look... It'll be gone before Spring, that's why I named it this way... 'Cause I know I will be doing this one again in two month!).

Anyway, recipe in a separate thread...

Bottled a 5 of Apple ale yesterday and bottled a MrB LBK of seasonal today with my brew friend that I worked with........He is still working, I'm not, I love it to be retired. Always thought it would be good if I didn't have to go to work everyday, but now I know, it is good....................Something for you younger guys to shoot for....................you would like it, but it takes a lot of time to get there.

My son in law wants o learn and to that end he's helped on a couple HME brews and sat I'm having him brew an extract w/carapils steep 2 gal APA (giving him 1 LBK and 24 12oz bottles) I'll be sitting right there watching.
