@@parrey1985 Got some "YELLOW JACKFRUIT" that is on clearance to go with a future brew with passion fruit pulp. They were a buck per 425gram can on clearance and google says that it taste's like, a combination of banana, apple, and mango or mango, banana, and pineapple, depending on where GooGle! Will not be "enhancing" any local liquid mash brews or cans, but getting $22 of Woolies Larger! AKA 2 cans lol 🍺🍻🍺 Adds so many possible names to that brew, Woolies Jacked Larger?!

2 kits I recommend you try are the colony West sarsaparilla and colony West lemonade.

[@G-townbrewer]

Glad to see it turned out well for you. Seems your poor choice turned into a good choice. Cheers!

[@parrey1985]

Not all my choices are poor

[@xrzx8040]

The actual poorest choice would be Kilju which is basically fermented sugar water that would taste like crap at worst and very dilute vodka at best depending on the type of yeast you use. It usually finishes cloudy but cold crashing can clear it up.

[@RodsPinballVideos]

Interesting brew. Maybe a box of BE3 instead of straight dex will improve the head retention 🤔

[@iamsymko]

That was my first thought. I will let you know at the end of November

@@misterk662 forgot to respond to this. Final ABV 6.6% after using three packs of Mangrove Jack’s Hophead M66. Not as good as what Johnny describes, either my yeast choice was wrong or maybe don’t need 2 cans of Coopers?

I don't quit have that turn around on my video's. I only make 1 video a month.

Nice work ! How about trying a Hard Cider? Woolies Apple juice X4, Dextrose, cider yeast?

[@jacktaylor4970]

Cheers for the good content lad!

[@thegingerpowerranger]

Wonder if you should do an all grain version of this and use a little wheat in it to help the head retention?

[@shotgunweddinghq]

Great video! Do you think using just 2 sachets of US05 be massive under-pitch? There are is a fair bit of fermentables but i feel like just 2 may work, they are quite efficient. I would definitely use 3-4 sachets of kit yeast though.

[@sparton5061]

How did you let it ferment before dry hopping? Great video by the way. I've been hoping you would upload this vid.

[@parrey1985]

Um. Dry hopping is always done after fermentation begun. Unless I'm mistaken? That's why most recipe's put the hop additions down as "4 day dry hop"

[@sparton5061]

@@parrey1985 sorry I wrote that wrong. How long did you let it ferment before dry hopping? Thanks for the reply

[@montdog2978]

Cheers for upload was good to watch. Currently in Germany drinking many a good beer. Have drank the original Berliner Weisse and it's various flavours in rhubarb, grapefruit, waldmeister (some weird green flavor), and raspberry. Wondering if a poor choice would be to replicate a Berliner Weisse with a unusual combination? Putting it out there.

[@parrey1985]

I'll have to sample one, then figure out a good poor choice experiment. But it's not impossible

[@anthonyamadio1998]

I wonder if youcould do the same with Draught

[@parrey1985]

Not really a fan of draught beer, even when it's free. But it might be a poor choice

[@dazhaz6453]

That big blue container you fill the fermerment up with do you just star San after use every time then re use? Going to buy one so I can just tip all the water in at once

[@parrey1985]

If I'm doing 2 batched back to back I'll reuse it. But on this occasion I mixed the starsan in the container before making the video. Bit of a "shaken, not stired"

[@gedfanselow]

Enjoying your brewing vids. I like your brewing style kind of suits me and the way I brew. I have been brewing all grain but gone back to kits recently with a few additions Presently drinking a bottled coopers stout with brown sugar. It's aged prob six months and damn not bad.i like the idea let the boys at coopers do all the hard work,wat you reckon?

[@parrey1985]

Honestly, I think all extracts taste the same. But it's definitely beer.

[@ryanbillingsley8862]

Hi I was wondering how long you let the brew ferment before adding the passion fruit and mango ? Awesome video

[@parrey1985]

Same as dry hop. I let it ferment 4 days. But when I added the fruit, the fermentation went off like crazy

[@scottbuckle4195]

Hi I'm doing this one at the moment. I've copied your recipe, how long did fermentation take to finish? Mine seems to have slowed right up after I put the passionfruit and mango in. Love the vid. Cheers

[@parrey1985]

Can't remember off the top of my head, but I think 10 days, and 3 day cold crash. The bubbler was going crazy.

[@scottbuckle4195]

Cheers mate, I'm on day 7 and reading 1.018 so should be pretty close to done by day 10.

The kegs are 19l, so a little bit more than that

[@environmentalcycles4255]

I'm confused on the timline: what time passed between adding the yeast and the other ingredients (i.e. mango, hops)?

[@parrey1985]

3 days after adding yeast, I added the hops and fruit

What if you were to go up to 40 litres with those same ingredients? Would it just be a bit diluted? Thanks
