  1. 4.5ish gallons of oatmeal stout wort at an OG of 1.059 - I'll add a bit more water to dilute it down to my target of 1.056, but that's about where I was aiming!

  2. Brew day yet again - today's recipe is "Breakfast in Bed", an oatmeal stout (BJCP 16B). I figure it's definitely getting to the time of year for darker beers for one, and also that I'm not trying any more lagers until my basement is cold enough to deal with temperature spikes (or I can ferment in the garage).

    Here goes nothing!

  3. CW: Alcohol

    Not actually an Xmas dinner disaster but rather part of yesterday's efforts in home brewing.
    As well as the carrot wine shown, we also made a parsnip wine.
    In the spirit of experimentation, various brown sugars were used in varying proportions across the batches (2× carrot, 1× parsnip) to see how we like the resulting brews and inform future batches.

  4. Couldn't resist a little midweek tipple, cracking open the latest homebrew: the creatively-named Lager from George's Beer, which just happens to be almost exactly the right volume kit to brew in a Pinter.

    Looks like lager, tastes like lager. Not particularly exciting, but I'll take it. ~4.7%, if the iSpindel is to be believed, so safe enough for a school night.
