[@rodrigolagos8133]

nothing better than those nerves of a new batch with new equipment...Cheers!!

[@TheNextBatch]

Bet you are happy to have done your first brew day on the B80 😃 Looks like you did a great job there without any big problems! Now you can enjoy streamlining your brewing process on it 😊 Looking forward to see more of this 😊 Cheers 😊

dishwasher for the malt pipe! Next level

[@rasuli4]

This setup is at a whole new level!

[@steverobbins9080]

That’s a great looking brewery, I bought my first Braumeister and Grainfather after watching your channel, and have brewed some great beers, look forward to seeing more videos from your new brewery.

[@scott31312]

Worst thing I have done in brewing the last 50 years was buy a Braumeister. Grainfather is great. Have 2 of them.

[@andreasstummer4596]

@@scott31312 not sure why you hate it? I have a 20l and 50l and love them both.

Mate, what an incredible setup. Love it.

Great new brewery. It's like a miniature professional brewery. In may I'm going to brew my first batch on my new G40. I'm looking forward to it.

[@homebeerbrewery]

Thanks for the kind comment! Enjoy the brew day on your GF! Is going to be awesome al well 🤘🏼😃Cheers 🍻

Looking amazing. Congrats with the new brewery 🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@Taper68]

Awesome job 😊

[@wedgtton]

Welcome to the club. I am well over 100 brews into my B40. As a tip I always run the pump at 100% during mashing so no scorching even with 60% wheat beers.

[@homebeerbrewery]

Thank you for the advice! Will do next time. Cheers 🍻

[@aimanel-majdoub3896]

Beautiful and well planned setup. Kindly make a video detailing the equipment and overall costs.

Input: * When sparging - make sure the valve on the machine points straight left, so all sparge water is pumped over the grains. Shame if the sparge water is pumped 30% over the grain and 70% into the mash. * Always start with the overflow higher than you need it to be. It's easy to push down once you have grains in, but difficult to raise up * The bottom nut for fastening the overflow - if you put this on (but don't tighten), and rotate the laser filter, you can tighten it onto the mash basket, so it sandwiches the mash filter between the nut and the mash basket - effectively clamping the filter in place. This means you can take the overflow up and down easier; and also makes emptying the mash basket a lot easier, as the filter is clamped in place and doesn't come tumbling out

[@homebeerbrewery]

All very good points, the first one I was hoping I did it like you described on the brew day but stress is not helping to remind this very important point! Thanks for all the input, I really appreciate that! 🙏 Nest brew will be flawless 🫣😜 Cheers 🍻

[@developer581]

Gefeliciteerd met je eerste batch na zo lang ongeduldig wachten. Prachtig! 🥳

Dankjewel man 👍🏼😜Cheers🍻

You make it look to easy. Cheers!

[@LaurenceVigna]

Hello nice vidéo You use your grainfather miller for prépare the malt? For the lazer filter at what number do you mill your malt and what speed? Thanks a lot

[@homebeerbrewery]

Hi! I use usually speed setting 3 and gap number 7. Works for me. Thanks for the kind comment! Cheers 🍻

[@andrevangijsel957]

Mijn eerste 3 keer op de B40 waren best stressvol eigenlijk. Waar ik wel benieuwd naar ben hoeveel die F80 condenseert als je gaat lageren op 4 celcius voor enkele weken.

[@denishanna]

Brewery and shinny bits look awesome 👌 Glenn . I moved house 5 years ago and the Braumeister has still not come out of storage. How did to hood hold up for ventilation

[@homebeerbrewery]

Hi, can you just start brewing again or don’t you have time or space? The hood works fantastic, even on the lowest ventilation RPM no condensation! Cheers and kind regards!🍻

[@denishanna]

Same time more space . I think I just need a kick in the ass

[@deadspeedv]

It goes in the dishwasher? Wow that is a game changer

[@andrewbayley1689]

what was the SS ring in the bottom of the machine at 10.04 min - looks like it might keep the hops away from the elements - I have modified a hop basket and drilled a 13mm hole in the handle to slide it down the central pipe and it cant fall over, and keeps hop matter from the elements in the braumeister

[@homebeerbrewery]

It’s the Trubinator of Brewtools. Works well, especially with large quantities of hops during the boil and hop stand. During the whirlpool everything will swirl inside the filter. More clear wort to pump out is the result. Great to hear you created a solution for your BM, sounds good! Cheers 🍻

[@halo7099]

Leuke installatie, maar een Braumeister lijkt mij zo op het eerste gezicht toch wel makkelijker. ik ben ook benieuwd of er smaakverschil is tussen de amber autumn ale gebrouwen met de braumeister en de bt80. Of misschien verschil qua efficientie.

[@homebeerbrewery]

Klopt, mee eens. Braumeister is meer een set and forget system, bij de BT durf ik niet weg te lopen als je geen overflow pipe hebt. Altijd met plezier gebrouwen met de BM, heb hem nog steeds hoor, 100% ga ik daar ook nog mee brouwen. Smaak verschil zal er denk ik niet zijn, efficiency is bij Brewtools in dit geval wat hoger, mout pijp van de Braumeister stortte ik ook altijd tot de max, 55 liter wordt is de 50l niet voor gemaakt. BM is een fantastische machine, zeer degelijk gebouwd (naar mijn mening nog beter dan de Brewtools) en de techniek om de wort van onderuit door het graanbed te pompen zie je niet andere systemen, echt wel slim bedacht. Wie weet ooit een vergelijk 🤭 proost 🍻

[@gijswessels9068]

Ziet er strak uit zeg! Dat er nog vele liters bier gebrouwen mogen worden Cheers!😁🍻🍻

[@homebeerbrewery]

Dankjewel Gijs!🙏 🍺

[@januszkszczotek8587]

Nice video. I needed a few brews on my B40 until operating the valves was fluent. What was your mash efficiency?

[@homebeerbrewery]

Thanks for the kind comment! The mash efficiency was about 80%. High in my opinion but I took all the time and had a very good grain crush. And all the grains are fresh, not old. Good to hear I am not the only one that needs to understand the valves, but it will be simple after knowing the system , it’s a learning curve. Cheers 🍻

[@januszkszczotek8587]

@@homebeerbrewery Wow, 80% is huge. The best I got so far was 67%.

[@Kinamico]

What can you say about the Brewmeister VS Brewtools after using both of them? (Regarding the kettles, not fermenters)

[@homebeerbrewery]

Brewtools is much more complex, more expensive vs Braumeister and in my opinion the way of mashing with the Braumeister is unique. A “set and forget” system you can walk away… Brewtools is very modular, you can setup and build the system like you like totally have, modification of a Braumeister is minimal. I brewed twice with the BT and looked forward to a brew day with the Braumeister again, with I did recently, video will be live in a couple of days grain to glass. I will make a comparison video soon. Cheers

[@Kinamico]

@homebeerbrewery Thank you for your reply. As a beginner , I went with the Brewmeister 50l first, as from what I've heard the Brewtools indeed has more flexibility but a little bit complicated at least for the beginner. But with the fermenters I've ordered brewtools F150 (3 pieces :)) Waiting for the comparison video, again thanks.

Spoel jij je vat nog na met schoon water nadat je met SaniClean CIP behandeld hebt?

[@homebeerbrewery]

Normaal spoel ik wel alles weer na met heet water ja. Weet niet eens wat op de gebruiksaanwijzing staat, zal eens kijken 🙂

[@hitrijezek3050]

how much does the equipment with which you now brew beer cost?

[@homebeerbrewery]

Way to much, I don’t want to know it anymore 🤷‍♂️🫣 Rough guess about 6,5K 😶

[@hitrijezek3050]

@@homebeerbrewery I will probably buy braumaister spidel 50l. My wife won't talk to me for 1 week... but it's worth it 🙂

[@homebeerbrewery]

@hitrijezek3050 Hahahaha Indeed, but only one week? GO for it 🤞🏼and brew 🍺. Well, a Braumeister is outstanding good build quality , in MY opinion there is nothing on the market compared to a BM. Also the way the wort flows, Can’t go wrong. It’s a set and forget system if your grain crush is good. Enjoy the Braumeister! And succes with your wife 😆😅 Just tell her it’s my fault you need to purchase a BM 🤭 Cheers

[@pauldeluiaard1638]

Mooie setup hoor. Netjes gedaan allemaal voor de eerste brouw met Brewtools. Ik ben dezelfde setup nu ook aan het opzetten. De troll moet nog in elkaar, was dat veel werk? Waar heb je dat tafeltje vandaan waar de sparge heater opstaat?

[@homebeerbrewery]

Dankje! TROLL opzetten schat ik een uur werk zonder opnames te maken, tafel zit zo in elkaar, de kraan moet je even wat meer voor doen maar is goed te doen! Het touw aanpakken op de juiste positie uit de arm is even een gepriegel maar als je een haakje ofzo hebt is dat ook zo gepiept. Tafel 15 min werk denk ik en de kraan 30 tot 45 minuten. Gefeliciteerd dat je er ook 1 hebt! Werkt prima, er tevreden mee! Laat je even weten of het gelukt is en hoelang je er over deed? Die andere tafel is van Vidaxl, zoek daar even op”keukenwerktafel rvs” of “rvs tafel”

[@TheHomeBrewJournal]

How much beer do you drink? I think 80L would last me more than 6 months, if I started drinking a bit more than I do now. How often do you plan to brew? Wouldn't it be cheaper to drink the best commercial craft beers in the world and save a lot of time? All that expense, effort and time, and cleaning, just for beer? I guess it can be more than just about the beer for some home brewers. I prefer making smaller batches (10L) more often to experiment and get more out of the hobby as well as variety of beer produced.

[@homebeerbrewery]

This system is flexible, you don’t have to brew 80 liters, also suitable for small batches. There are a million ways to brew beer, cheap and very expensive, I like to experiment and explore the market of these products. Even I started with a pot and an iglo cool box as a Mashtun, BIAB as well. Brewing is like having a car, any cheap car can get your from point A to B but if you can afford it is nice to do it in a Ferrari or Lamborghini. I will never consider to sell or quit brewing and start (only) purchase beer out of a store (I do but I brew beside it as well ) because it saves time and a lot of money. Every hobby comes with a price, my pockets are empty now but I don’t regret it 😊 Cheers
