Late Seasonals Are Better Than No Seasonal

After much debate between brewing a wheat beer or a porter, on 9/24 I put a Pumpkin Porter in the fermenter. After fermenting for 3 weeks it will be going into secondary for a couple more days. This beer was made according to the recipe found at mrbeer.com

1x West Coast Pale Ale HME
1x Creamy Brown UME
1 Packet Dry Brewing Yeast
1/2 Cup Brown Sugar
15oz Cooked Pumpkin Puree
2 tsp Ground Cinnamon
1/2 tsp Nutmeg

Oatmeal Pale Ale Update

Sampled a bottle after 2/1/1(day).
Can't really say that the oatmeal added anything to the taste, but the aroma is nice. The hops need some time to tone down. No off flavors other than that though.

Oatmeal Pale Ale

1 can classic american blonde
1 can pale export UME
2 cups oatmeal
1/4 oz argentinian cascades

boiled 2 cups of oatmeal in a muslin sack with 4 cups of water for five minutes. Turned off heat and added the cans of malt extract, plus the hops in a second muslin sack. Will leave to ferment/carb/condition for 2/1/4 weeks.

Hard Apple Cider...FAIL

so my cider didn't come out. Too much sediment, completely my fault for forgetting to strain. Also sat for too long (damn you work/school). I think it could have worked with more care and handling

Hard Apple Cider...

more like hard apple sauce. I did not realize before, how much solid made it into the fermenter. we'll have to see how this turns out. If it ever finishes transferring that is.
