Only 6.5 degrees C above your mash temp for compensating a cold mashtun and the grain interesting. Do you have some calcuator for this specific for the ss mashtun? Or is this tried on experience?

Made my first (and it won't be my last) brew kit of 'Tribute to Doombar'. I enjoyed the process but my keg is unexpectedly hoppy. Not like Proper Job, more like Black Sheep. I love real ales, but I'm not a flavour expert. So I apologise if that doesn't make sense. I'm wondering what may have caused the bitter-hoppy flavour. I couldn't 'Cold Crash' it because I would have had to empty our refrigerator, it's so small. I've read if it's 'sour' it's gone off, but the air that came out of the top valve when we turned it smelled so good - I can't believe it's gone bad. Any advice?
@BrewBrosUKАй бұрын
Glad you enjoyed the process. It shouldn’t be that hoppy, more balanced with fruity and malty character plus spicy bitterness. It has a fairly large hop stand (hops you add at the end of the boil and let sit). Ideally you want to minimise the hop debris that transfers to your fermenter/keg after the hop stand. Or ideally whirlpool (stir it around briskly for a few minutes and then let the debris gather in the centre). Then once cooled gently pour into the fermenter/keg. Cold crashing is definitely worthwhile but shouldn’t affect hoppiness. Next time maybe try adding half the Hops 2 or add them once the wort hits 80 degrees to minimise hop character and bitterness. Thanks 🍺

Great to see Sir Gandalf finally nailing a drinkable beer. Wheat beer is not my cup of tea, looks like a urine infection and tastes like a sore throat in a glass (takes me back to that French exchange girl I dated back in the lower sixth), but whatever floats your boat. Has been an excellent series of more traditional beers and well suited for our great British summers. When Labour lie their way into Number 10 later this year I figure that people will be flooding to home brew as we get taxed to high heaven for anything that remotely improves your quality of life. So put your orders in for electric super cars lads as you will soon be coining it in. Who knows, you may earn enough for Gandhi to be able to afford a girlfriend, just keep her away from the videos as we want no repeat of what happened to the Beatles.

If you want to drastically reduce the amount of alcohol in your wort, just start mashing at 81°C. This will skip the sugar building process(es) and thus less sugar for the yeast to convert to alcohol. Remember: alcohol is a nerve poison

@BrewBrosUKАй бұрын
Good question. We originally hoped the brandy would do the job (it would certainly assist the flavour and aroma) but we did some reading and at ABV 60% and higher alcohol kills off bacteria but below this level it doesn’t. We might trial a brew with no hot water and see how it turns out but there’s a chance it’ll end up down the drain. Most barrel ageing vids involve sanitising (not that there’s many of them). Work in progress 🍺

I'm a bit conflicted with starters. If I have liquid yeast that's pretty fresh, the wort is under 1.060 and the wort doesn't have a lot of simple sugars then I just pitch it directly. Now I know there are hundreds of strains and I've only used a few so that's definitely something to think about and ignore what I've just said 😂. White labs Edinburgh yeast and hefeweizen yeast (wlp300) I've found to be especially good without a starter. And kveik all bets are off, had a pouch of omega Voss that was kept out the fridge for 18 months and it still fermented a standard strength beer in 4-5 days, was stunned by that as fully expected the pack to be completely dead.

A weird mashup between Breaking Bad and Carry On Doctor. With Tim, as Sid James playing the “donor”, Paul Skinback; and Ed, as Jim Dale playing Doctor Longfellow, they work at the fertility clinic at the local hospital fighting to overcome the dreadful sexual performance of men in the West Country town of Little Gonad. With a supporting cast of Ghandi as Hattie Jacques playing Matron (“ooh Matron no!”), Ed’s daughter as Barbara Windsor playing Junior Nurse Winkle and one of Tim’s mates as a “blacked-up” Bernard Bresslaw playing Doctor Hindi the hilariously stereotype’d, Indian gynaecologist. Rib-ticklingly side-splitting fun ensues complete with sophisticated double-entendres about “making large deposits”, “can I give you a hand with that”, “I think I need a bigger cup”, “he shoots, he scores”, “it’s rude to point”, Junior Nurse Winkle bends over making the thermometer in Mr Skinback’s mouth explode and the obligatory reference to Mark Almond’s predilection for quantities of the “white stuff” and the world-class 80’s gag about his trip to the hospital …. “That’s quite a thirst you have on you young man”.

Great vid. Why boil for 15 mins? Isn't it just to sterilise? I boil mine for 5 minutes and experience no negative effects. How quick do you have your stir plate? I have mine spinning fast to ensure there is oxygen getting into the wort to help with yeast propagation (and I get minimal krausen as, I believe, the yeast is prioritising propagation over fermentation). I also have mine running for 18-24 hours as I don't think any longer is worth it . Finally, I also use 25g per 500ml of DME and it works just as well as the more traditional 50g-500ml, if not better (again, I think because the yeast should be propagating and not fermenting)
@BrewBrosUK2 ай бұрын
Good question….i think it’s one of those historical things that most people take as read ye olde 15 minute boil. I think when I (Tim) start making them I’ll go for the 5 minute approach because I haven’t got 15 minutes to be standing around on edge waiting for the eruption! We use the Wort Whipper at 25% on the dial. Again, maybe one of those things but most say it just needs enough to keep the yeast suspended. I’ll try the more vigorous approach too 👍
