I’m brewing Ken Lenard’s red recipe today with my homegrown Mt. Hood hops and 34/70. Gonna call It Red Leg Lager, I’m a big cincy baseball fan can’t wait for season to get underway. Got my tablet with me so I can listen to music browse the forum while I brew its a great day. I don’t even mind that is 36 deg in the garage.
We are going to buy our ingredients for an American Wheat today and brew tomorrow. Happy Brewing.
I’m brewing something very similar. Got stuck at home with a foot of snow drat Its 29 outside and snowing. Still out there brewing though…
I have always thought brewing in the snow was a lot of fun. It’s so quiet and peaceful.
I hope this storm coming thru the mid-west won’t stop by supplies from coming so I can brew this weekend. Storms on Indiana’s door step, and only 2 more from my last batch are still around.
Weather is good here in Southern Ohio little chilly. But it’s supposed to get cold overnight with sleet ice snow freezing rain making for a nasty Friday morning
Had an appointment cancel yesterday, so I took the opportunity to brew the 80/- I didn’t get to brew this weekend. Great brewday! Now I need to get on bottling to free up a few kegs 
I brewed 25 gallons of rye IPA last night. Mmmmmm…rye.
Racked my first brew today. Dead Ringer IPA. Making a Belgian White tomorrow. Cincy here
[quote=“617Brewer”]Racked my first brew today. Dead Ringer IPA. Making a Belgian White tomorrow. Cincy here[/quote] very nice that kit makes a great beer :cheers:
Ended up with 11gal of beautiful red wort saturated with lots of Mt Hood cones. Overshot gravity a bit ended up at 1.058 but I’m not complaining. Starting to get colder out there. But it made for easy chilling all the way down to 48 with IC
Just finished up an American Wheat, decent day today, started to sprinkle a little as I was mashing out, but that was it.
Not beer related, just regarding your choice of brew name: Before you mentioned baseball the first thing that came to mind was the Civil war. Red leg /Jayhawkers in Mo. and Kansas.
Beer related, have a Vienna style beer in the secondary named Groundhogfest since I brewed it just before Groundhog Day. Next year maybe I will have it ready for Groundhog Day and start a new tradition. Can’t have too many beer fests.
Brewed an all Fuggles hops IPA today. Its a 5 gal. extract kit so took about 3 hours…made the kitchen smell beery good! Hit the OG of 1.042 and waiting for the Thames Valley yeast to do its thing. :cheers:
you ever make it? if so, do you remember what your FG was?
It’s been a while but 1.015ish that’s for the AG kit. Don’t know if the extract kits have the same fermentability.
cool. so i’m in the ballpark
