@@DavidHeathHomebrew I brewed an old ale and a ESB clone this way. I think Brettomices took over the ESB, and the old ale definitely tastes down on the farm. I do think the beer brewed this way needs to be drank promptly in small batches. Im not much of a sour beer fan.

[@mingueyox]

Hey David. I’m very new to brewing, so excuse the basic questions. I’d like to have clarity regarding the 2 hop tea methods you mention. 1) The first method is boiling the water with the hop for no more than 2 hours. Then you say: “add to the wort in early stages”. What exact time/stages are you referring to? The very beginning of the mash process stage? 2) Hot Tea in the water around 60/70°c. Can't be sure of the sitting time? Are you saying >= 8 hours? Do you maintain the water to 60/70°c during all that time, or you let it cool down and leave it as is for 8 hours? Again, great efforts with your materials. Amazing knowledge gathered in all your videos. Keep it up.

[@DavidHeathHomebrew]

Thank you :) 1) For a raw beer this would be at the start of the mash 2) Not really no. It depends on your ambient room temperature. 8 hours is probably a maximum. The temperature is not maintained. Great to here that my videos are helping you :)

[@mingueyox]

[@jeffbrislane5782]

Man i wish i found this video earlier, i started my first batch on an electric stove that wasnt able to bring a large pot to the boil so i purchased a dedicated electric boiler. I couldve saved myself some money! Oh well at least now i know i can go back to the stove top for small batches now! 😁

Hi, With raw ale running off wort I am getting confused with this with Fusion watter with Juniper do you just top up fermenter with the correct volume or Sparge what is the traditional way to do this with raw ale please, Regards, Jack,

[@DavidHeathHomebrew]

Hi Jack, sparge in the normal way 🍻🍻🍻

[@jackbirth7087]

Hi, How dose the filter bed work in raw ale with Juniper, With running wort through hops how would you do this on all in one System like the brew monk?. With the runnings I have read that there is a Second mash at low temperature with a Fusion of Juniper any help is appreciated. Jack,

[@DavidHeathHomebrew]

Hi Jack, I have done this, its essentially a light infusion and back in older times the wood was used to hold the grain during the mash. These days most simply infuse the wood over night and then remove it before then brewing as per normal.

[@stewheart]

Dear David, this video has inspired me. I followed your video on bottling imperial stout - it worked just right. If raw beers are good for body and malty flavour - do you think this would be a good way of brewing an Imperial Stout? thank you for your quality content ⭐

[@jonwilliams1919]

I've been intrigued with old ale recipes and techniques for some time, this video may be what pushes me to try the raw ale, plus I've been wanting to try kveik yeast, one for the temperature tolerance and two, for just the interesting history of it. Is that what you were using in your drying yeast video?

[@DavidHeathHomebrew]

Hi Jon, Yes I usually dry my kveik and the vast majority of the yeast I have used for years now is kveik. There are many reasons why you should be using it ;)

[@iikkakurtti7074]

Hi David. This was especially interesting topic and we're planning to try using this method with sahti and wheat malt combination. I was just wondering that is it necessary to boil/sanitize (cold) sparge water before sparging without risking your beer? I live in Finland and we have very good quality tap water in here so we don't usually adjust it at all before using it.

[@DavidHeathHomebrew]

Hi :) As a precaution you may wish to boil the sparge water in the brewing system first and transfer it to another vessel. Two birds with one stone. Some would say this is not needed, some would say it is. I've done both and had no issues either way.

[@zachthom2998]

How were they able to heat the beer when you said the reason for this method was they didn't have a pot big enough to boil?

[@DavidHeathHomebrew]

Hey Zach, it was about the material they had to heat in. They would heat on a fire but the vessel construction did not allow for a boil.

[@jonathanflowers472]

David, love the content! it has guided me through learning how to brew the last 4 months. I am curious if a raw Dunkelweizen would be a thing? Or would there be way too much protein?

Many thanks Jonathon, that is certainly great to hear. Raw wheat beer is really no problem at all. It certainly works well :)

[@janetpiez3393]

Hi David, Your raw ale videos were so interesting (and the weather here is so hot), I just had to try one. In the fermenter is a 1.040 OG Scottish ale with home-grown hops (of unknown IBU) added to the mash water as it heated up, then moved to the mash tun. (Do you remember what a mash tun is? 😁) If it ends up with too many IBUs, then it is a bitter. One question: do we need to be concerned about chlorine in the water, especially if we keep the lid on when heating it up for the mash? For this first batch I did draw up the water the day before and left the lids cracked open... just in case. Your videos have really influenced my brewing, so thank you, thank you!

[@DavidHeathHomebrew]

Hi Janet :) Glad you have enjoyed them. Its never easy with hops that you do not know the aa% of. Chlorine can certainly be an issue but it is easily fixed by using campden tablets thankfully :) Great to hear that you have enjoyed my content and found it influential :) More coming every week :)

I have a quick beer brewing question: I had a beer in Pilzen (at the Pilsner Urquell brewery cellar out of exposed top wooden barrels) that I now assume could have been Raw Ale, but it was considered not pasteurized. Kegs of this non-filtered and non-pasteurized beer can be found at select location in Prague but they have to be drunk within a short timeframe before they "go bad". Would they be considered raw ale? or something entirely different because they are not pasteurized. I have had a few of these kegs here in the states, but they never seem to taste the same. Great video as always! *Cheers

Hi, I belive that Pilsners have always been boiled. They came way later than older styles. That is not to say that you cannot brew a raw pilsner, you can :) Ive seen a lot of positive talk about it online. Go for it :)

Hi David, very interesting video as usual, thank you for all your efforts.

Now I am just wondering which strains I should get, I was thinking of Hornindal and perhaps Midtbust (as you used it for the recipe) but it's really difficult to get information on the results you get with Kveik in general. I like english ales as well as Saisons and IPAs, what would you recommend? Thank you in advance and happy brewing!

[@DavidHeathHomebrew]

Hi Erik, NIce to hear from you. It really depends on the water you have (No problem with the water in this area) , the style of beer and the results required. I would recommend adjusting ph to everyone but everything else is a matter of choice. If you are happy with what you have then maybe look at it another time. I would say the vast majority never bother with it but those that do can pick up a difference.

[@yorkshamunki]

Interesting content David.... I'm intrigued to say the least.... however (you just knew that was coming didn't you!!) I would like to address a certain aspect of your dialogue during this video. Milk can be heat treated (and is and sold as such) beyond boiling point and is also widely available in supermarkets..... Pasturisation heat treatment equates to around 63°C, however UHT - or as it was know when I was a kid, sterilised milk - is heated to 135° - 150°C (although its only held there for 2 - 5 seconds)…. This type of milk was widely available and drunk during my childhood as previously stated and accounted for around 8% of UK sales according to Wiki in 2007. I'm not knocking your content here, just pointing out a minor oversight possibly. I'm interested enough to possibly attempt the brewing of raw ale over the summer if I can obtain some suitable yeast... Brew on and keep supplying us with more content that provokes comment and discussion.... Cheers

[@DavidHeathHomebrew]

Many thanks for your thoughts here, much appreciated :) Haha you make a fair point Chris. Having said that I remember UHT milk and it is no surprise that it is not as widespread today! My point really is that pasturisation is good enough for milk and many other edible items and it is good enough for beer also. I only make this point because some question how safe beer is without a boil :) You can brew no boil and use any type of yeast. You dont need anything special :) Today I uploaded a new raw brewing video that shows the complete start to finish method for a NEIPA. brewed raw. Hope you find that interesting also :)

[@yorkshamunki]

David.... thanks for the response.... Beer is safe as you say without the boil.... Many, if not all, macro breweries preserve their beer in this manner (Carlsberg I know for one having tasted both the heat treated and non heat treated versions of Special Brew - better without the thermal input!!)… Good point re the UHT milk, I thought it was awful but I recall many using it being a child of the 60s.... I feel certain levels of experimentation (ala Every Sperm is Sacred - Monty Python) may be due in the coming months.... Always interesting to see a measured slant on things.... Thanks

[@DavidHeathHomebrew]

Awesome :) Thanks for your reply. I was a child of the early 70s but still had to endure that stuff from time to time! Going back further, during medieval times beer was seen as the most healthiest of drink due to its pasteurisation. This was long before a brewers boil and hops. I really enjoy historical brewing but I seldom repeat it unless the end results are very good. Raw brewing just keeps me wanting more. Combined with modern methods there really is no style we cannot brew, even if we may need to do a small stove boil for some more bitter styles. Experimentation is what keeps me brewing and even now I still feel like there is too much still left to try :)

Hey Senastiaan. Well there is no ramp up time to the boil plus what ever your boil time is. Plus you are cooling down from a lower temp. So you are talking about 1hr 30mins or there abouts faster.

DMS isn't just a product of mashing, it can occur during malting as well. High quality malt may be suited well to this method, but if there's DMS already, nothing in this method is going to help with it.

[@user-co6ww2cm9k]

Otherwise, very interesting! With the general quality of malt available today, I bet it tastes great. I think I would probably try an English style if I tried it.

[@DavidHeathHomebrew]

@@user-co6ww2cm9k Glad you found this interesting. Afew things here:- DMS is a product of S-Methyl Methionine (SMM) which is an amino acid made during the germination and kilning of barley as part of the malting process. The maltster has control of this and these days SMM levels in modern day malt are at an all time low. When you heat your wort past around 80 deg c you enlarge the DMS present but once you hit boiling temps you then start to boil it off. The reason DMS is not an issue in raw brewing is because you do not reach temperatures this high. You should for sure give this method a try, I have never been disappointed by the results and as long as you stick to the guidance found in this video then you will not encounter any issues.
