Going to brew for the first time in over 3 years.
quote:
My son is enrolled in a Food Science degree and is taking beer brewing as one of his electives, so he asked me to brew a beer with him.
What college?
quote:
The idea being that we can get four beers out of one brew, a robust porter, chocolate porter, coffee porter, and a chocolate coffee porter.
I just hope I still remember how to brew…
Good luck! I hope brewing starts taking off again. I know locally, with the local homebrew shop closing, that sort of killed some of the interest. I went in the opposite direction, and though while more expensive, i like the endless variety of grains/yeast i have at my fingertips when ordering online. Last year i used 34/70 (dried yeast) for my lagers in the summer and that worked out fine.
I look back at my recipes and i can see my evolution as a beer drinker. First i was brewing mostly IPA's and stouts. Then i started to get into quick sours and IPA's. Then i completely stop doing quick sours and focused on mixed fermentation sours. Now i'm brewing mostly lagers with some west coast pale's/IPA's with 1 or 2 hazy's per year thrown in and maybe 1 or 2 mixed ferm sours.

He's at UGA.
Surpirisngly, my LHBS us still in business. He's closed today so I'll be stopping by tomorrow morning to get my grain.
Goin to try to brew with ingredients I have on laying around the house. There's plenty of US-05 in the freezer and, although unconventional, I have a few cenntential hops to bitter with. Hopefully everything goes as planned.
I am always impressed by your beer souring and mixed fermentaitons so it's interesting that you are doing lagers now. I guess that's the beauty of beer, so many different styles to enjoy.
