15-Minute All Grain Pale Ale - Basic Brewing Video - January 29, 2018

[@tommyg957]

I have been making 15 minute mash and 15 minute boil beers for over a year now. Other than a small, hit in efficiency, all have been very tasty.

[@ForgetU]

Thomas Gehrdes Jr - what size, number of pounds of grain? Grain to liquid ratio? Thanks, Hoss.

[@SteaminPile]

I'm with Steve, simple beers are more enjoyable to me!

I do a cascade smash with vienna malt quite often. Steve is right, the more exposure to more complex beers I get the simpler my tastes become. :)

[@matthewkistler6199]

Finally got around to trying a 15 minute boil and it worked great! Briess Light Pils DME, 8g Tett hops, 8g Hall hops. 4g of each hop at the beginning of the boil, 4g of each at flameout. One of the best "pilsners" I've ever made. The twist was using US-05 :)

[@WarbirdPylonRacer]

I totally get what you're saying Steve. Almost like a craft brew with decent abv but with more of a sessionable taste. I get that way too sometimes. Some IPA's & Dbl IPA's can get overbearing quickly. Often when I'm about halfway through a glass I'm thinking about changing to something else a little milder. Nothing wrong with that. It's all about the enjoyment.

[@edwinvoorhees1952]

Brilliant content ages well. I was looking for inspiration, came away come this video with a smash IPA. Please give Steve a hug, errr, chuck on the shoulder or whatever is comfortable 😁🍻 for me! Love these videos! They have helped me relax and enjoy brewing while concentrating on the important stuff while I work to become a better brewer. THANK YOU!!!

[@basicbrewing]

Cheers! - James

[@djsomers100]

Got the LME kit and it turned out awesome! After 1 month in keg it is well balanced, clean, and I have impressed my friends and pissed off my enemies!

[@playgroundchooser]

As long as there's no DMS, I'm all in guys!

[@BlackHit]

It's super silver hazy! Another great vid guys, keep up the good work

[@Percivaldurham]

I just tried my version of this with Maris Otter and Simcoe. (Moe Simcoe is what I call it.) It came out real good. Like Steve said, there's a nice softness to it. I only wish now I made more than a six pack.

[@canadianbrewer]

Thanks guys.

[@tubedinoz]

Great video guys. Plenty of food for thought. Cheers

[@RC-pz5jz]

Mmmmmmm, will try this. Cheers 🍻

[@thedagem]

Is there any reason you don’t consider doing a first wort hop with these shorter boil beers? I’d figure maybe you’d get more bitterness out of your hops that way.

[@mitchrought3923]

have you done any brews using a hop tea instead of aroma or dry hopping, show is great

[@basicbrewing]

Glad you like the show! I've played a little bit with hop tea. I wasn't impressed, however, your mileage may vary. - James

[@infinitefretboard]

Rewatching to see if they detected DMS notes. Because I'm brewing a Kveik IPA tomorrow and was thinking about cutting down the mashing and boiling time to 15 minutes each. Apparently it's a good idea.

[@basicbrewing]

Infinite Fretboard The video we released today was also a 15-minute boil. No off flavors. -James

[@crowtservo]

I might do a 3 gallon BIAB version of this. I got a three gallon keg for my meads, but when I run out of ready to keg mead, I brew up a quick 3 gallon beer for it so I don’t have empty taps. Always want to try something different.

[@basicbrewing]

crowtservo Let us know how it turns out. -James

[@MyHomeFarm]

Great video - quick question: how long did you ferment with yeast before bottling?

[@basicbrewing]

This one went a week before packaging. Your mileage may vary. Check gravity with a hydrometer to make sure fermentation is complete. - James

[@MyHomeFarm]

@@basicbrewing Thanks for the prompt response. I'm 24 hours into our decision to home brew and I just figured out a short while ago that the hydrometer is what determines that you're done fermenting (just purchased one) before heading down the conditioning route. A lot of learning and trial and error ahead - my first attempt will be a simple Czech style lager.

[@basicbrewing]

@@MyHomeFarm Be sure to check out our audio podcast, Basic Brewing Radio. Around 750 episodes of info. - James

[@GenusBrewing]

Its beautiful ;)

[@afhostie]

Sounds like a challenge for you guys

[@rodandanner2132]

I just brewed a 2.5 gallon batch yesterday. Did you ferment for 2 weeks or less? I normally go for 2 weeks if the conditions are optimal for the US 05 yeast. I live in a studio apartment and can't control the temperature if it gets too warm. I have pull beers out of fermentation in 9 days with no problem. What's your take? Love your site. Have made a lot of your recipes. Thanks.

[@basicbrewing]

Glad you like our stuff! It looks like I brewed on 11/26/17 and bottled on 12/3/17. With this beer, I didn't see any benefit in keeping it in the fermenter after it reached final gravity. Cheers! - James

[@rodandanner2132]

@@basicbrewing thank you. Then I'll pull it after 7 days. I have 3, six packs of the speedy all grain stout I made. I tried one and it was definitely delicious. Thanks again.

[@jamesmoore4963]

Great video. Going to make this. In order to make a two gallon batch, how much water do you use in the mash to allow for loss??

[@basicbrewing]

My notes say I started with 2.5 gallons of water. - James

[@jamesmoore4963]

basicbrewing thanks very much. Keep up the good work!!!

[@Kgbrews]

There's a lot more to NEIPA's aside from the haze; that's just a byproduct. You'd have to pay more attention to the water profile and yeast contributions. My two cents, from someone living in New England.

[@basicbrewing]

Be sure to tune in to Basic Brewing Radio later this week with John Palmer talking NEIPA. - James

[@GenusBrewing]

Also I don't think I've ever had Miller High Life...

[@JohnnyReverse]

have you guys ever tried an all dry hop beer, with no heat additions? ive been tinkering with the idea

[@basicbrewing]

We haven't. Let us know if you do it. - James

[@Percivaldurham]

I tried this about two weeks ago with Maris Otter and Simcoe. I call it, Moe Simcoe. I'm going to give this a couple more weeks in the bottle before trying. I've got my fingers crossed.

[@phantomcreamer]

I'm curious, how was the haze? You did all grain?

[@matzisback]

Nice video, big fan of short boil and no boil at all as well. Though not sure why you are saying this could be a neipa as you said yourself the hop character is low. As well haziness is a byproduct of the amount of hop during whirlpool and dry hop. Now it's up to you to try a smash "neipaish" going no boil huge whirlpool dry hop n°1 when pitching yeast dry hop a couple of day later! That would be fun! :)

[@basicbrewing]

Be sure to tune in to Basic Brewing Radio later this week with John Palmer talking NEIPA. - James

[@davidharbin6115]

Nice video. What’s the water to grain ratio?

[@basicbrewing]

Thanks! I mashed in 2.5 gallons of water. That's all the water needed for the recipe. - James

[@shadowrayz]

In that small 2 gallon batch, does the DMS boil out in time? That would be my only question.

[@basicbrewing]

Yes. No off flavors at all. - James

[@cadencebrew]

2 Row isn't as susceptible to DMS as say pilsner. Also a nice vigorous boil and it should evaporate nicely.

[@peperb0y]

How much water do you use for the mash?

[@basicbrewing]

According to my Logbook, 2.5 gallons. - James

[@demetriusholmes6034]

I see you guys using aluminum stock pot I’m just getting in to all grain and the stainless pots are expensive does the aluminum change or cause any taste since most people I watch have stainless Steel pots thanks

[@basicbrewing]

I've used aluminum for many years with no problems. -James

[@homebrewhobby6197]

So having just watched this video, I'm curious as to whether anyone has scaled this up to a 10gal AG recipe?

[@Brewmanbru]

Would you do an imperial IPA the same way?

[@basicbrewing]

You could certainly try it. You'd have to add a whole bunch of hops to achieve the desired bitterness level, but maybe that's not a bad thing. - James

[@jacksw02]

You didn't use your High Gravity system. I hope this doesn't mean you no longer love it. Especially since I just ordered one! Good vid, thanks guys.

[@basicbrewing]

I love my system very much. I just used it a few days ago to do a scaled up version similar to this beer. My High Gravity kettle is too big for small batch experiments, though. You'll love yours, too! - James

[@QlddronesAu]

Sad that so many people just want to tell you what they know, rather than ask what you know. Flat earthers, I call them. I'm trying this right now as a 20L batch and will let you know how it turns out. You didn't mention sparging at all but I did a 5L sparge anyway as it seemed a shame not to.

[@hellfireSam]

I have done some years ago a 15min boil with lots of hops... Good beer but drink it fast! As the hop aroma drops out storage flavors will come in... lack of bitterness without hop flavor it's just terrible... Left one bottle for at least 6 month and you'll see...

[@cadencebrew]

Down with this sort of thing

[@lowellchicken4162]

Careful now.

[@freesonweatman4540]

Do you mean that you are down with this? Or are you in disagreement with this approach?

[@brettanomyces7077]

Listening to you Palmer podcast on NEIPA and it came off like old guys talking about Rap music. I've NEVER heard anyone call these "Knee-puh" just as I've never heard "eye-puh". Love your content otherwise, just see too much ignorance around the style by old school brewers.

[@phantomcreamer]

I hear it all the time. I think you have the shoe on the other foot
