BREW The House of the Dragon BLACK IPA!

[@graeme02]

Looks delicious! At 8% that beer would last me all winter... haha

[@flyingwombattv]

Hahaha it’s a heavy one!

[@BrewabitRick]

Black IPA my nemesis beer 🥺do you let the sanitiser dry before putting the hops in ? Just started using a hop bong and loads of stuff got stuck to the side because I put the hops in straight after sanitising. Great vid as always 👍🍻

[@flyingwombattv]

Yeah ideally you’d want the dry hopper to be dry so you don’t end up with a bunch of hoo dust stuck on the walls!

[@johnsikking4891]

Love your videos and learn with you and you learn more about the recipes.

[@flyingwombattv]

Cheers dude glad you’re enjoying em!

[@GREEENZO]

Great video as always! qq, you've never had any issues making starters with dry yeast? Everyone online seems to say you're not "supposed" to but I guess I've never questioned why that is. Thanks and cheers!

[@flyingwombattv]

Cheers mate! I think a lot of people say don’t bother “rehydrating” your yeast, which is basically just plopping it in water, but that’s not the same as a starter, which actually has sugars to get the yeast to start munching and growing. It’s probably just because it could increase the chance of infection, but honestly if your following basic sanitary processes it won’t happen. I do agree rehydration probably isn’t necessary, but I do love making starters to get a very healthy culture going before a pitch

[@GREEENZO]

@@flyingwombattv thanks much! Might start doing it to be honest, doesn’t take long and ensuring that good cell count can’t hurt!

[@NoMusiciansInMusicAnymore]

Been looking forward to another bit of HOT-D

[@flyingwombattv]

Ditto mate! Been a long wait for S2!

[@mbourke85]

Awesome, can't wait for the sour video!

[@flyingwombattv]

Cheers mate! Definitely a very unique beer next week hahaha

[@theblackneon5396]

I'd cold steep the black malts to make it less 'tea-coffey-mixy'

[@flyingwombattv]

Yeah that’s defs an option, however I wanted the coffee and roasted flavours to be present on this one

[@TheGriegs]

Hey FWTV. Love your videos and I have made three of your recipes and they have all turned out wonderful. However, comma, I would love to know where you buy your grains from. I struggle to find suppliers that have variation in stock. Thanks a bunch.

[@flyingwombattv]

Amazing thanks so much mate! Out of curiosity which ones did you brew? And yeah for sure we buys the bulk of our ingredients from beerco.com.au

[@TheGriegs]

​@@flyingwombattv Brilliant thanks for the link. As for your recipes, I have made the Australian Pale Ale and the BEST was the Fruity XPA. That one rocked and is now on my rotation list. So actually only two. The next one will be the Super Juicy Hazy IPA and then the House of Dragon methinks. This weekend just gone I brewed a Frankenstein. I basically had 4 kgs of leftover malts from a bunch of beers and I just threw them together with some Chinook and Amarillo left overs. Guess I'll find out what that turns out like in 3 to 4 weeks. :)
