yes and no. to put it simply, and I mean not to devalue your words. some people *just* suck at teaching I've known plenty of amazing competitive overwatch players for example. and a large sum of them are absolute cheeks at being a teacher. it takes a different kind of patience and the ability to analyze a situation for what it is, just as much as they can for what it could become. some newbies that'll never be even average skill level could still teach you the game better than pro players. because teaching itself is unique, learnable, but a lot more of a talent than anything else

Boil 8oz sugar with 8oz water and add it to the 5 gallons of beer before bottling instead of spooning sugar into individual bottles. Much easier.Chill before opening to reduce foaming.

Some tips for the next brew. Keep taking temp measurments during mashing since the mashtemp will go down over time and the fact that you need to take in calculation the grain temp when mashing in so you dont undershoot the temp. Beta Sacc rest is from 63C so if you undershoot you may not get full convertion of the starches and miss your target OG. If you have access to a chestfreezer or somewhere else cool stick the whole FV in there with the wort for it to cool down, or get a cheap plastic can of 20+ liters put the hot wort in it push as much oxygen out of it by sqeezing it and put on the cap and leave over night to cool down. Then by splashing to add oxygen pour the wort into your FV and add yeast, its an easy trick so you dont have to buy a colling spiral or a platechiller. And another tip for bottling - just and the bottling wand onto the tap and let gravity do the work no need for the siphon.

That was a lot of sugar (in the kit brew) so you were lucky not to get bottle bombs! As for the malt, it's worth noting that not all malts are 'diastatic', which means they contain the enzymes which will do the work of chopping up the sugars while in the mash. This is why pale malt, which is diastatic, is the majority of the grist for most beers except lagers. When malt is processed in the kiln for colour and flavour, it typically denatures the enzymes. Hence, if you tried to brew a beer with e.g. all crystal malt (caramelised) the mash would produce no fermentable sugars because no enzymes were present to do that work.

If you're planning on keeping your beer for long periods of time, take a jug and use it to fill the beer bottles right to the top. Removing that air space makes a huge difference to your oxidization problems. I haven't had any oxidization problems since I started using this method. Great video and congratulations on your brewing journey.

As a professional brewer, who started as a home brewer and still make small batches for fun, I have a couple of p on the subject. 1. Don't homebrew for saving money. It is some work and if you value your time, it is not so cheap. Instead we do this for the creativity, the experimenting and the feeling This I made myself. But beware, this is addictive (not only the alcohol) about styles, equipment, new ingredients. It is a deep rabbit hole. 2. Brew-in-a-bag is a good start. I would recommend a chilling coil to faster chill the wort. With long cooling time there is risk to produce more DMS after the boil. 3.Leads to the chemistry. Do the homework learning the basic chemistry about brewing. It will enhance the quality alot. 4. Many put alot of money in the brewing, but forget the fermentation. It's when the magic happen. Put some effort in choosing the right yeast and some money in temperature control during fermentation. An old fridge and an external thermostat on the power inlet. You had a kveik, a noewegian farmhouse yeast for very warm fermentation. Normal ale yeast gives best result 17-23 oC. Some clean lageryeasts can ferment as higth as15-15 (for less strong beers up to 20) oC. Other demands 10-12 oC. That is hard without chilling capacity. 5. After fermentation make sure it is really finished. Or you risk bottle bombs! Same readings 3 days in a row. Then you also hada diacetyl rest to get rid of the off flavor of butterscots. Then cool down to about 0-2 oC for cold crash. Then polyphenols and proteins aggregate and sinks to the bottom. The beer gets clear. 6. Oxygen is your enemy. After pitching the yeast try to have as little contact with air as possible. Oxidated beer taste of wet cardboard. Especially hoppy forward beers are sensitive to oxygen. Make sure you have a good process to avoid oxygen. 7. Write it all down. To be a better brewer you need to document what you do. 8. Have fun!

@ewalddiedericks2819 Жыл бұрын
One thing that jumped out at me is that you bottled before your gravity reading was 1.000 or less. In that case fermentation might not be complete, which is how you make bottle bombs. So what I normally do if I think it stalled (meaning it's above 1.000 SG and not moving anymore) is take a reading, and then take another 2 or 3 days later to see if it moved again. If it remains the same, it means it is done. Just be careful! Looking great so far - enjoy your fermentation journey!
@uribove
@uribove Жыл бұрын
Being below 1.000 is not the benchmark persé, but it needs to have lowered compared to the original SG and remain stable for a couple of days
@jonnyfox14
@jonnyfox14 Жыл бұрын
Final gravity does not need to 1.000 or less.... I've never fermented down to 1.000 or less, I'm not saying you can't but it's deff not the benchmark. It depends on what type of beer you are brewing, lower final gravity indicates a dry or crisp flavor, while a higher final gravity indicates a sweet or malty flavor. It also depends on the attenuation rate of the yeast strain you are using. But I do agree that caution is need to avoid bottle bombs and to make sure that fermentation is complete before bottling and as you said the best way to do that is to take gravity readings over 2/3 days and if it hasn't moved you should be good.

Great journey video. Try batch priming your beer prior to bottling. Take some of your beer, heat it slightly and add the sugar then reintroduce it to the beer. Give it a stir and let it settle for an hour. I find it gives me less oxidization. You can use an online 'priming sugar calculator'. Yeasts produce individual flavors. Please tell everyone what type of yeasts you are using.... it's important! Invest in some temperature controls. Maybe a heat pad and a thermostat.... Tape the thermostat to the top of your fermenter for top fermenting yeasts and to the bottom of your fermenter for bottom fermenting yeasts. A fermentation chamber would help too. Yeast doesn't like light! It could be just a box or you can make an insulated chamber of your own design. Good luck in your future journeys!

Just wanted to say I love your videos and the way you explain things so clearly even if its small. I usually I use your videos when I'm studying, or drawing, or have nothing to do but I think I've watched them all, all ready. I can't wait till there more.

Usually I’m pretty attentive to your videos but this time, and maybe its because its midnight and I’m quite tired, I could not keep my eyelids open, it was very relaxing and the ringers would wake me back up, a great video as always.

Been home brewing for a few years now, its a great hobby that you can upscale and improve upon continuously, I do cider, wine and beer, the beer making is definitely the most enjoyable, also keeps your mates very happy and lubricated.

Great work Alex. I remember going through a homebrewing phase a decade ago. I ended up converting an old fridge in my garage to a kegerator with taps and had a great time setting up this whole automated pump system thing. Thanks for the memories!
