So we brewed a couple batches of beer the other night and it is just popppin away! My "office" has a funk to it!:D

Same wort, different yeast.

Oddly the "Wit" is lighter than the "Saison"..


Yum, home brew!

It took all day to take it from water and grains to that. As Adam said, it'll be ready in about a month.:D

Right now it's very sweet with a good citrus notes and a bunch of hops. The sweetness (sugars) will ferment out to be the alcohol, this patch should be around 6%.

This was our first time doing an "all grain" method. We actually did a "double decoction" to extract all the sugars from the grains, it's way more involved with times, temps, and volumns. A bit of a PITA, but fun..

I'm curious to see how big a difference the yeast will make in them.

We've only had a sample while changing vessels (gotta do that once a week or so).

Good though. Probably come in just under 6%.

Should be bottling one next week. The other needs to mellow a bit, kinda spicy..:D

Nope.

My brewing buddy has been slacking..weird work schedule..then sick..

Maybe one day next week. It doesn't really hurt it to stay in the vessel longer, so we don't need to get it out.

Man, you can sink a fortune into some of the "store bought" equipment..

Everything we use I made.

Our brew kettle is a 15g Bud light keg I cut the top off of- $12

Mash tun is a 50qt cooler that I drilled a hole in and assembled with some various parts from the hardware store. Most of the cost of this was a new cooler. $40~maybe..
