I’ve made this beer A LOT and today was one of those days…weird

From initial run-off to preboil in the boiler
THREE HOURS!

I think my mill needs a looking at …might be a bit on the TIGHT side

Oh well, this Cherry Apple cider is going down like gravy on potatoes  ;D

I better go to bed before I get druck

Just fired up the kettle for a Honey Toasted ESB using honey malt and home toasted two-row.

I’m brewing a small batch (2.5 gal) of something I’m calling Red Rye Ale.

64.8% 2-row
10.8% rye
10.8% light munich
7.1% crystal rye
4.3% victory
2.2% chocolate rye

Magnum hops for bittering; cascade and centennial for flavor/aroma.  Going to ferment with Wyeast 1968.

Mashed in on a wee heavy

Finally oaked my RIS.  Used 3 ounces of Hungarian medium toast in 5 gallons.

Wasn’t able to brew on big brew day so I brewed two batches on the 30th.  My first lambic (will become a kriek) and my 2nd Anniversary beer - Dirty Hound Irish Red (brewed it for our wedding and our first).

Bottling my oktoberfest soon, and drinking my delicious dopplebock and baltic porter now
