Here are the beers I brewed in temporal order.

Index by:
bottledbrewed
starter: (Thu night). 1 cup wheat DME, 20 oz water, 10
minute boil (pellets/water/DME) , cooled down to 76°
, shook up (lidded), mixed w/100ml White Labs Trappist
Ale (best before: March 11 2008) into sanitized 32oz glass bottle, cap
with fermentation lock (sanitized), dark place -- basement temp is
71°
Due to a Worldwide hop shortage, Kent Goldings is no longer
available at the Grape and Granary. Hop prices are also up almost 300%.
Brewday: 1 medium distaster, a boil over. Not only had a huge
mess that took 45 minutes to remove, but lost perhaps a quart of wort.
I think somewhat less. Hard to measure. About 15 minutes before the boil
I tossed in another 1/4 of Plain Light DME to attempt to compensate
somewhat. Expect a slightly lower gravity version this time, and fewer
of them. Wort temp 66°, Basement 68°. Preparing a T bath now
to try to get to 72° or so.
rackday: might not lost as much as I thought from the
overflow. Oaked.
bottling: 44+4. Leftovers yummy

The recipes described indicate the ingredients I used to brew the
beer. These may or may not match with the ingredients found in the
cited references. For the authoritative clone recipe and complete
descriptions of how to make any of these beers using either
extract, mash or mini-mash methods consult the cited text. I
heartily recommend the "clone" books referenced, any of them is
well worth the small investment and will pay off in great beer.
