I had a couple of kegs that needed to be rebuilt. It’s something that needs to be done from time to time. O-rings crack or swell or otherwise degrade. But it’s pretty easy maintenance.

Small Saison
Well its been quite a while since I have brewed an all grain, but I need to get the kegs filled. Had some ingredients in the fridge from the last beer I had planned, so we just needed a few things.
This Saison was a bit bigger when I wrote it up, but I think a nice, light easy drinking 4ish % is in order.
- Small Saison
- 8lbs 2 row
- 1lb white wheat
- 4oz carapils
- .75oz Target hops @ 60
- 1oz Saaz @ 5
- .25 Target @ FO
- Belle Saison Yeast
- Mash 155
With a fairly low OG of 1.044 and this yeast, figured I’d mash just a bit higher this time. Anyway, thats it. I’m not adding anything to this.
The Ukraine Brew
Alot of you probably seen the Solidarity brew for the Ukraine situation.
I was going to doing our monthly club brew and seen this a few days before,, so why not.
It labeled as an Anti Imperial stout. But feels more like a porter to me. I figured out a smaller abv batch to brew.. but as much as I like beets I decided to leave them out.
Ended up with an OG of 1.056. Has a good malt selection and really smells great in the kettle.
Been in the primary two weeks now so I’ll be taking a look at it one of these day now and decide when to get it kegged up.
There should be reviews of this recipe coming out soon from all over, and I can’t wait to compare what other proportions and gravities other people brewed.
