Hi, mate. I tried this and thought it was ok, I won't be buying it again when I've finished them. At the moment I'm in love with O'hara's nitro stout, it's quite expensive in the UK but it's worth it! Give that a go in one of your videos if you haven't already. They're based in County Carlow. Their red ale is supposed to be lovely too.

Hey man, huge fan of the videos, going to be starting on the home brewing journey in the new year. I have a couple questions for you, how much US-05 did you use in this recipe? And when you’re cold crashing, have you had any issues with suck back? And if you have, how have you dealt with that? Cheers, looking forward to your videos to come.

Great thanks Mate

Hi, Graham. Looks lovely that. I'm doing this brew at the moment. Do you think I'll need a 2nd fermentation? My plan was to put it straight into a 19L corny keg and add a 70/30 nitro co2 mix. Any help would be great as this is my first go!

Loving the videos on the fermzilla, got one now just watching reviews and tips how to use it. You are by far the best at explaining it, no shite to straight to the point.

Murphys is my fave

Hiya Graham, hope your well fella. Its coming to the festive season very soon and why not I am going to do a brew this week, can I ask you about your water additions please mate. There are loads of water profiles for Guinness clones, so thought would ask about what you use mate as yours seem to come out pretty good / perfect, so why not ask the master I say Graham. I am intending to use RO water, what water additions did you add mate, also see you added latic acid into the keg, is this meant to give the Guinness "Twang" as they say Graham. Anyway, you are the expert of the Guinness clones my friend, can you advise what water additions I should add for the 19L batch using RO water please, and what water profile I should go for or aim for. All the best Graham, John 🍻

Hi Graham, how did you find the Karlstein all in one? How is the Brew Monk fairing out?

I like Blackheart, but I don't feel great drinking it. I feel great drinking Guinesss and that's that.

I love the black heart always have some in my fridge,been lucky enough to have it on tap at brew dog in Canary Wharf when I went to watch Peter Kay last year. I’m no stout expert obviously. Great review as always Graham cheers 👍🍻

Actually prefer can Black Heart to the tap,Anspach Monday , London Black is worth trying

Black Heart, like most Brewdog beers, overly hopped with a with a bitter and burnt bite.

nice video - never miss an update :-)

Hi Graham. Could you do a video of the HBC All-Grain Irish stout? I made it once and I was very impressed.

I tried the black heart, i must have bought a knock off as i thought it was pretty watery and was not impressed at all with it.

I wish had a mate like you Graham....love your channel Pal....😊❤❤❤

What's with the porno music?! Great vid and superb insights as usual, thanks!

"I said shit!" I say the same thing every time I kick a keg. HAHAHA I decided to do this recipe instead of the other one I asked you about. I'm only doing a small test batch to see how she comes out. But I'll let you know. Just bought the grains yesterday. 🙂 Oh, and thanks again. Love the videos and the channel. Cheers from PA, USA.

When I'm ready to finally brew a Guiness clone you will be my first stop. So far which recipe would you say comes the closest to the real version?

Cheers Graham, just brewed my third attempt at a Guinness Draught clone. Trying to nail the spunky and roasty levels, experimented with a cold steep of the roasted barley adding it back at the end of the boil, fingers crossed it comes out nice! Happy brewing

How long are your beer lines Graham, mine are 2.5 meters served at 30psi but I have a lot of foam. Are they too short

Graham, Did you use 225 grams of cara special 3 as well? I didn't catch the amount. Thanks, Max I don't know if I can get the Cara malts over here in the US, so I may see what I can substitute. Thanks again, another great video!

Nice one Graham loving the new bar! I only brewed the original pint of plain recipe last week so im look forward to getting her kegged. Cheers and enjoy the pints 🍻

Never seen someone so dedicated to recreating a Guinness. Love your videos. I don’t brew but you got me thinking of giving it a go. Looking forward to seeing how this goes

I watched lots of your videos and decided to give this recipe a try next weekend and tap it on my newly built nitro system. Thanks mate, Cheers

Looks great 👍 are you going to share the recipe? Any new brewing videos on the way?

How long are your beer lines? And what pressure are you serving this at

Hey Graham, I have the nitro setup for my stouts, but I always seem to end up with a large head (1 third of a pint) I serve it at 30psi it's a 70/30 mix, have tried lower psi to 25 but still the same? Any ideas what I'm doing wrong, beer lines are 3 meters

Graham mate - why bother making a clone of Guinness? It tastes of nowt these days - I did all grain brewing in the 70's and 80's and used to culture yeast from bottles of Guinness - it was a lovely drink back then but now it's a travesty. Any brewing novice can get a better pint than Guinness for 50p a pint - How? Buy a Coopers Stout kit for £15 add 1kg of dark DME (£5) and in 2 weeks time you will have a tastier brew with virtually no effort - No brainer! That aside I do really like your vids (and the accent!)

Graham, i am having an issue where the heads just start getting bigger and bigger when you are getting more than half way down the corny keg. Have you had this before? Im set up just like yours and force carb just like your video. Have tried different brews (all stouts) but they ended up massive heads towards the lower half of the keg, first half is perfect.

guinness pourer? can i have a link to this machine?

Looking forward to the results verdict video Graham. Like the idea of the porridge oats. You might get a milk stout but at least you could have it for breakfast 😅 Keep up the good vids. Dan

Hi I see David heath has on his last video on KZbin what he says is the closest to draught Guiness. Thought you might be interested.

Cheers 🍻 looking forward to the brew day video

Hi mate. New to brewing. Find your channel so refreshing (excuse the pun). Straightforward explanations and honest reviews. Can I ask what sterilising solution you use in your spray bottle and does it last a while without going off? Keep up the good work. Cheers. 🍺

What psi do you pour at Graham?

Hi Mate, nice review. I'm in Sth Australia, home of Coopers. With the Inn keepers daughter it's probably one that's better to bottle as the Commercial version of that beer is a bottle conditioned ale anyway. Cheers.

You always get such good cascading. I use a stout tap which is ok. Do you think the Guiness tap makes a difference. My beer line is about 6 feet 3/16. This is because I used it for CO2 so I didn’t get frothing. Do you think if I shortened my bed line it might be better. I use 70:30 beergas. Thanks

"Will I drink the keg? Of course I will" Words spoken by every homebrewer at some point!

Beautiful head color, nice pour, well done

That is a absolutely beautiful looking brew Graham. I love how you have a camera person all the great KZbinrs have one 👍the bar looks fantastic cheers 👍🍻

Another great Graham. I'm already interested to know if the lactic acid will change the second keg. Still loving the new bar! Take it easy bud. Dan👍

Thats a nice looking pint!

Im an Ag brewer but time is against me and I fancy getting a few kegs of stout on 70/30 bashed out for the fortnight of sundays we call Christmas and new year.. Did you use the Kit yeast or did you substitute it with something else? How much extra dark spraymalt did you use ?

Great video lad...pint looks savage 🙂

Keep it up Graham. Like the new set up. Looking forward to seeing more brewing footage!

Those pints look exceptional

WoW.. That looks awesome... Fair play to you 🎉

Hope the new build goes well Graham, bit envious I am. I have a question for you mate when you have time, maybe some photo's if you can fella too. I know you use Beer Gas mix for your Stouts & Guinness's, do you also use CO2 for the IPA's and other beers Graham as well, can you please educate me how you do or use both gases in your bar. Do you have one regulator and you switch over to use the right gas for the beer to pour or do you have two regulators Graham, one for CO2 and one for Nitrogen & CO2 mix, so two totally seperate gas systems.. does this all make sense my friend All the best, John 🍻 🍻

Hiya Graham, Love the channel fella, especially the Guinness ones. Have a question for you Graham, I know your busy but if you have the time would love your comments or perhaps a short video. Excuse the long message mate, I am just starting out with the All Grain Home Brewing and just about all setup, my question is about bottling Guinness clones or it possible or worth it as generally you would pour direct from the Keg. I current have a CO2 setup, the regulator will take the Mix Gas so I just need to get an adapter for the regulator and a mixed gas bottle, I know you pour direct from the Keg with the Nitro/CO2 mix and its a pleasure watching this but is it possible to bottle from the Keg. From my limited knowledge so far, the CO2 will carbonate the Guinness and the Nitro will give you the Cascaded Affect in the glass. Based on this Graham have you tried on bottling from keg since its already carbonated with the Nitro/CO2 mix. Hope you have the time to reply fella, all the best John
