Why don’t you have to wait another week if you put the beer into keg with c02? vs. puting the beer in bottles?
RDWHAHB…
to shake or not to shake, that is the question? Whether ’tis nobler for the brew to suffer
The slings and arrows of outrageous contamination,
Or to take arms against a sea of bacteria,
And by opposing end them?
keep it sterile, all the rest is personal opinion.
good video, its answerd alot of questions I had that normal directions dont mention.. I do have a question about the yeast though, after you add the yeast do you let it sit 5 minuits or so then do you shake the bottle to mix it all in or just let it sit ? if one or the other does the same apply for liquid yeast ? thanks..
alright im gonna try this so those glass containers where he was letting the beer ferment those were 5 gallons?
Great video , that looked like a dark finished product , what makes a light colored beer or light beer…???
Is it possible to scale down the recipe? All the info I’ve seen has only the huge glass jars pictured in this video. Would it be possible to brew just one gallon?
looks like guiness
fantastic video! very clear and thorough explanation. I do feel a little intimidated to try doing this myself, the process seems quite complex and requiring lots of elements..
very interesting, i’ve always wondered…
Great video, I’ve been thinking about home brewing for a while, but have been really intimidated. The video put everything in a good, organized progression. Thanks!
Shoot for 68° C… I realize metric makes more sense, but I’m an american and stuck in my ways… 180° by the way is the high limit- if you’ve gotten up that high you’re in trouble. shoot for 155° F or 68° C
malt extract
good luck getting it to 180 C
whats the second ingredience?
dont hear what he says
I agree. better then the craig tube videos.
It is true you can, but depends what you are use to drinking. I do it this way and its by far some of the best beer I’ve ever tasted. Plus this way gives you more control on the taste of your beers.
What kind of grains do you use in the bag? Kinda new to this and having fun with it, but Ive been using just malt extract and corn sugar to make a not so grand brew. Would like to step it up. Your video was very helpful….thanks…..keep um coming
You should always use SI units, not joke american units. If you don’t do that, atleast say which units you’re using. In the beginning you said 180 degrees without mentioning Fahrenheit for example.
as an avid home brewer of over 4 years this a very good demo of ALL the steps you can get even more complicated if you want to do all grain
when brewing beer its important to ensure that you have an IQ over 6. I know boiling water can be tricky at times and following instructions is next to impossible. But as long as you just be patient and don’t get frustrated you can make delicious home made beer in about 6 weeks. And it wont taste like the piss you get at the store!
Tell me brewing quality homemade beer, is not this complicated. I appreciate the work done here, but, I’ve tasted great homemade beer…with much less work. Can someone comment?
No your fine, that works perfectly well. In all grain brewing you’re using enzymes to convert the starch to sugar at about 155. Since you’re getting all the sugar you need from the malt extract, the grains you use with an extract recipe is mainly for color and flavor- so it doesn’t really matter what temp it goes in at, so long as you don’t take the temp over 180 because that’s when you start imparting flavors of the husks (tannins) that are unfavorable…
is it absolutely neccessary to put in your grain bag while the water is still cold? I just made a batch of IPA and I waited until my water was at 155 before I put in the grain bag, then I held it at that temp for 25 minutes. Is the only difference really the sugar content of the wort and the color?
That might be the greatest thing I’ve ever seen. I wanna try it so bad.
wow you need to make more videos. you’re good at explaining stuff. good job dude!
P.S. it didnt work out for me… i just went to the store to buy my own beer. lol
