The Easiest Way to Make Beer

We created this Citra Pale Ale beer making kit for two types of people: folks who have never brewed before and experienced brewers who want to brew something smaller and easier than they usually do. Making beer has never been easier than it is with this kit, which allows you to brew beer at home quickly and efficiently.

FYI for anyone getting started, you can upgrade this to all grain just by adding a brew bag or large muslin cloth to your setup. Overall this kit looks awesome for doing experimental batches before going to 5 gal, just ordered one for myself for that reason.

[@Bobotrucker]

I agree.. I've been making cider and wine and am going to try some beer.. definitely not going right to 5 gallons..I use 1 gallon glass jars with plastic lids and airlock.. Easy to clean and have worked well for me

[@matthewmeredith3138]

Fantastic job with this starter kit, guys! Great way to get started, and makes so much more sense than some of the other beginner kits out there. Job well done.

[@bobbob-ze9zo]

Great video ! Extract brewer since 1989 . Show tips and tricks to make it easier next video.

[@PartyTimeBrewing]

Great kit for starting out! Time lapse shots are always fun to watch. Cheers!

[@jeffmorrison8032]

I’ve brewed 3 styles so far on the Clawhammer 120v system. The 1st an Irish Red that came out fantastic, 2nd a German Festbier is still lagering and the 3rd a robust porter is fermenting. Extremely pleased with the system…really makes brew day easier and allows me to brew the beers with the flavor profiles & complexity that I want. Thanks guys!

[@JBCvision]

Absolute great way to get people into brewing! Awesome job, as always. Let's make homebrewing great again! Cheers

The happy Viking B-roll shots at 4:44 were a nice touch. Great video and the kit looks cool as well. As a n00b, I appreciated the footage showing all the mistakes (boil-over, over carbonating, etc.). Thanks for sharing 🔥🔥

This is the best beer making video that I have ever watched. You guys explained and showed how it is done perfectly. I've made beer only once before, but now I definitely want to do it again!

[@MadMax00215]

I found that a short piece of hose ( 2 or 3 inches ) attached to the spigot will allow the bottling wand to hang within easy reach and will speed bottling significantly. Just place a drip pan on the floor under your wand.

Just a quick tip, cooling down the wart in the fridge might sound like a good idea, but it can actually create condensation inside the fridge. Over time, this can lead to increased ice buildup on the cooling element, potentially causing future issues. Just something to keep in mind!"

[@Bobotrucker]

Fridges have a defrost cycle to prevent just such an event..I cool in the fridge with no issues, but I guess it also matters how often you do this

[@user-lg4ln8fg1k]

You're pure talent.

[@cohibadad]

Pro tip: throw that duxtop under the 5 gal 120V claw hammer to halve the heat up to mash temp and invigorate the boil.

[@derskalde4973]

Very wierd question. So, to preface this: I'm currently reading through the Kingmaker module for Pathfinder 2e, to run for my group. All the inhabitants of a neighboring fledgling Kingdoms town suddenly disappeared, and in the description for what can be found there, it says, that at the towns brewery, they can basically find several barrels of beer, that were in the process of being loaded onto a cart when the people vanished. When the player characters arrive in the town, it has been at least two weeks since the people vanished, so these particular barrels layed in the sun and were exposed to the elements for this whole time. Now my question: what would have happened during this time? The book doesn't really dwell on it any longer after setting the scene. My first instinct was, that the barrels sitting outside either already did or were close to bursting/exploding, having build up a good bit of pressure due to laying in the sun for so long, my reason being, that it heats up in the sun, so the Fermentation keeps going. But since I don't have any knowledge on the subject, i tried looking up what the likely Outcome would be, but couldn't find too much on the matter, other than that the beer would go bad due to the UV rays in the sunlight, which I think wouldn't be that much of a Problem, since a wooden barrel wouldn't let much light through. Only other thing I found, that's somewhat related/helpful, was, that beer stored in a keg should be consumed better sooner than later, and that it should be stored in a cool, dry place away from other food.

[@eprofessio]

I use the flip top bottles.

[@chrish5222]

Claw and hammer supply I got one of your beer kits and there was a scale anyways the film on the actual scale got peeled off a bit I was wondering if this was good or bad for my beer

[@Skistimulus]

Is filtered water a great source vs tap water an using the tablets?

[@Evanpetersdpt]

Whats the ratio for the sanitizer solution? The kit only comes with a small vial of it. 1/5 of the bottle to 1 gal water or something else?

[@yeetymcyeetersson1639]

Can you make a decent-tasting belgian-style beer in this kit (specifically a tripel or flemish red ale)? Doesn't have to be perfect, just good enough that I can avoid spending $7 on a bottle of Westmalle or Duchesse de Bourgogne.

[@zombiecondie]

I make mead. Does having the yeast eat the sugar in a bottle not cause bottle bombs?

Good video, however dry malt extract sure does not need to be boiled 60 minutes. It only needs to be sanitized. I do, however boil mine for 15 minutes.

[@cobolh0pp3r12]

I like doing 1 gallon batches with these "jar" fermenters with the spout, instead of a glass carboy, BUT think they are charging too much ($100 !). You can get a big mouth jar with lid and spout for $40 (at most), and the extract or grain kits can be found for $16-20. Hopefully they will lower the price or allow you to buy just the fermenter. But happy that they are branching out into this "newbie home brewer" area.

[@Bobotrucker]

I use 1 gallon glass jar with wide mouth and plastic lid with airlock..$15 bucks on Amazon

[@ohmaramusic]

You aren't leaving soap foam in the fermenter are you?

I noticed at 2:44 there are suds left in the fermenter from the sanitizer. Is it important to leave those in there? Or should I rinse those suds out before moving forward? Thanks!

starsan sanitizer is meant to have the foam left behind. it's safe and supposedly breaks down into nutrients for the yeast

Don't think boil over is the worst thing that can happen during homebrewing. You have gallons of boiling sugar filled liquid. That can burn. A lot.

[@rickyjayalexander]

Bottle bombs also sounds worse.

In 2004, my father and godfather tried to make their own beer (lager) in the basement. It didn't end well. They put too much of something in and woke up in the middle of the night to POW! POW! POW! They walked into the basement and saw that sixteen out of the twenty bottles of their homemade lager EXPLODED! Beer was EVERYWHERE! On the ceiling, the wall, and on the floor (I mean, duh). Ever since, they just buy Samuel Adams or something.

[@MikeP350]

Only thing this kit could use is a blow off hose. Nothing more unsettling than a blown up fermenter to the brand new brewer!

[@GenusBrewing]

You forgot to start with "I don't even like beer"

[@n-9249]

No, the quickest way to cool a wort is to only use 1/2 the water to boil the wort. After simply add the other 1/2 of water COOL. Will drop the brew instantly to almost pitching temperature

[@M.F.Hafizhan]

So only half the wort is boiled?

[@n-9249]

No. If 2liters is at around boiling point 95c and you add 2L at 15c, the final temperature of the mixture will instantly become 55C@@M.F.Hafizhan

[@anikrroy9177]

I'm the 1000 number liker of this video..

[@GlebMichal]

You don't have to aerate wort before or after adding yeast. It's a misconception. Yeast can start fermenting and multiplying just fine without oxygen. BTW the wort will be sufficiently oxygenated automatically after cooling due to atmospheric pressure.

[@Bobotrucker]

Same with wine, I never aerate and the yeast seem to figure out what to do every time..I do premix my yeast in some warm water though instead of just dumping it in.. probably do the same for the beer

[@Dilley_G45]

Would be nice to consider non Americans and also give metric temperatures otherwise ..... nice 😊

[@corriedebeer799]

Wtf are you doing man? You should always use an auto siphon to get the beer from the stock pot to the fermenter. If you introduce too much oxygen to the wort the hops my sour and spoil your brew.

LoL, it's not pronounced "wort" though it is spelled that way. It is pronounced "wert".

[@MadMax00215]

I struggled with that when I first got started. Kept seeing the word in print and instead of pronouncing it like "word" I said wOrT. I then kind of bastardized my pronunciation of it as a combo of the two. Like woert for a while. Took me a long time to train my brain, so to speak, and say wert. 👍
