Belgian Trippel
- brewed on June 4
- used Wyeast Trappist HG 3787
- we finished brewing and added blow-off tube around 11:00 p.m., June 4
- around 7:00 a.m. on June 5, no surface activity existed. but within an hour or so, considerable surface activity existed, filling the carboy to the lid with bubbles.
- by 11:00 p.m. on June 5, the most vigorous fermentation activity had already subsided.
- at 7:00 a.m. on June 6, fermentation activity continues at nice pace with gas flowing through the blow-off tube, but the activity is less than the evening before.
- fermentation on June 4, 5, and 6 occurred in the dining room with an air temp between 68 and 71 degrees. i wrapped a blanket around the carboy, and i stopped opening the window in the dining room because our morning temps this week were around 50 to 55 degrees.
- temps in the dining room remained in the mid 70s from Jun 7 through Jun 9.
- on Mon eve, Jun 9, turned the furnace on to 80 degrees for a while. Then later, I moved the fermenter to the upstairs bathroom and closed the door.
- we had cool mornings and days all week, Jun 9 through Jun 13. temps in the upstairs bathroom remained in the 70s.
- on Fri, Jun 13, I moved the carboy to the basement.

Summer Wheat
- brewed on Wed, May 14
- we tasted some of the wort and the spent grains after the mash, and it tasted like a sweet oatmeal-type cereal. nice.
- bottled on Jun 1
- produced 9 bottles
- still tasty during bottling
- drank our first two bottles on Jun 14, and I liked it. Extremely carbonated to a fault. Opened bottle, then while bottle remained still on counter, bubbles rose, then more bobbles, then irruption from the sediment, then it foamed out the top for a while. fascinating to watch. unsure what's going on.
