How to brew BrewDog Punk IPA | Brooklyn Brew Shop

[@AndrewLynch9]

Brooklyn brew kits got me into this game just over 3 years ago now. Definitely good for someone that's new and wants to learn all grain brewing at home.

[@BrewBrosUK]

Thanks for watching! I don’t get why guys do extract kits tbh when grain brewing is this easy

[@AndrewLynch9]

@@BrewBrosUK easy when you have the brew in a bag 😜

[@ryanguest9606]

@@BrewBrosUK I’ve only done a handful of extract kits so far, but came across these ones while looking to see what else was possible. I’ve yet to try a grain kit like this, but the thing that puts me (and possibly others) off is the temperature control on the boil (I’ve got the fermentation temp sorted with the fermentation fridge I built).

[@BrewBrosUK]

@@ryanguest9606 hi do you mean the boil or the mash temp control? I get pretty good efficiency on my stove brews tbh - lots of stirring and sometimes I up the grain by 5-10%. My OG readings are nearly always on the money. I did a Doom Bar clone recently and it was spot on....so much so that we’ve produced our own kit 😀 Brewery in a Box - Tribute to Doom Bar | All Grain Reusable Beer Making Kit www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B091Q3J7L8/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_fabc_30YNJB3S42HD39BM5YT0

Such a well done video without any fluff!!! I’ve got this kit and this video is great to get me started!!! You’ve got a new sub here from USA Michigan!!

[@BrewBrosUK]

Hey that’s awesome, thanks so much! Hope things are well in Michigan - I manage to catch a Wolverines game occasionally!

@@BrewBrosUK GO BLUE!!! Atta boy! I meant to say also, FANTASTIC musical accompaniment!! Very appropriate for the Punk IPA

[@DelStevensongtr]

Thank you Tim. I found your video very relaxing. Cheers

[@BrewBrosUK]

Thanks 😊 I think that’s a compliment, right? Relaxed approach rather than it nearly sent you to sleep?

[@DelStevensongtr]

@@BrewBrosUK yes clear clam and inspiring.

Very good Brew Bros! Exactly what you need to watch if you’re part of the brew virgins gang 💪 🍺👍

[@BrewBrosUK]

When is your next brew fool?

[@JamesJLatham]

I definitely needed this walkthrough! Nice work.

[@BrewBrosUK]

No worries, much appreciated!

[@ScottReviewsThings]

Great video. Got one of these for Christmas and really looking forward to getting started with it. Thank you for this it has helped me enormously.

[@BrewBrosUK]

Thanks for watching. Really pleased it helped 😌

[@lewisparry8006]

Hi mate, just at the bottling stage tomorrow after cold crashing for the last 3 days, do I start the two weeks fermenting again from bottling or include the cold crash days (so ferment for 1 weeks four days) Cheers👍🏻

[@BrewNub]

Haven't had the chance to try this kit out yet, but it looks fun. BTW, Good job not losing it with the racking cane lol. That thing brings back nightmares.

[@BrewBrosUK]

Oh I lost it, just off camera 😂

[@KarlEdmonstone]

Great video!! Very clear and informative. Thanks ❤️

[@BrewBrosUK]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@davidt8546]

Just drinking my first ever homebrew. Really pleased with the flavour...as you say a tad overcarbonated but a success in all. This was a great way to learn the basics of all grain brewing. I've since done 3 smash brews of my own which are bubbling away in demijohns under the stairs. Great video guide 👍 thanks alot brewbros. Tip to any other newbies out there......if you can afford it buy a little bottler and an autosiphon....the siphoning part of this is stressful as hell and not particularly easy as the tube you get could do with being a metre longer.

[@BrewBrosUK]

Hi thanks for watching and commenting! Yeah the siphoning bit is tedious tbh so the bottler and auto siphon is a great shout. Happy brewing! 🍺

[@ChuckUnderFire]

Tim, you’re a legend. I’m wondering if you’d have a little better transfer into the demijohn with a quick spoon (nice Tick reference BTW) whirlpool during the chill and then using that cane siphon to do the transfer. Also I can’t help wondering if just your fingers oils be just as effective as the tube clamp. Outstanding as always. Can’t wait for the next brew.

[@BrewBrosUK]

A quick spoon?! A double entendre in there methinks 😂 I think you’re right about the clamp but I didn’t want to encourage any ‘but you didn’t sanitise your thumb’ or ‘you didn’t follow the instructions’ comments!

[@ChuckUnderFire]

Hah! True.. way to keep the trolls in their place.. I suppose I confused the statement with the random parenthetical Tick reference... what I meant was: Since your chill only takes 15 mins or so, once you start chilling get your spoon. Whirl it around in the pot for about a minute. Really get it spinning. Then leave it and don’t touch it for the rest of the chill. When you’re ready to transfer grab your racking cane and start racking from the top of the wort in the kettle into the demijohn. The hops should be a pretty noticeable cone in the center bottom of the kettle. Avoid it and get as much wort with the siphon as you can. Transfer complete. PS: Feel free to do the sanitizer siphons thing, but I always just use a turkey baster to start the siphon

[@BrewBrosUK]

@@ChuckUnderFire ah gotcha 👌 You’ll see that on my stovetop Guinness clone I’m kicking off on Sunday 😀 Look out for the trolls.......they’ll getcha

[@jonseyboi83]

Just bottled mine 👍🏼 now just waiting the 2 weeks!! Hope it turns out ok 🤞🏻

[@BrewBrosUK]

Hey, good luck with it! If it doesn't turn out ok get another one going (ingredients kits are much cheaper) and don't be put off. Pretty sure it'll be great :)

[@jonseyboi83]

Thank, looks a little darker than in the video but I’m hopeful. Wil definitely be trying again 👍🏼

[@benwalker3550]

Very nice!!!

Thanks!

[@timmymess4742]

Those are our beers chief!

[@sinclaircram3130]

Hey, followed the steps up until leaving for 2 weeks to ferment, but didn't realise had to replace the tubing with the airlock! Chilling in the fridge before bottle - have we spoiled it? Smells good 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@BrewBrosUK]

Hi no don't worry, that won't affect it. Enjoy!

Who says kits can’t make good beer!? Cheers to that!

@@BrewBrosUK yeah just can’t decide what I want to be sippin.. Irish stout sounds pretty dang good

[@BrewBrosUK]

@@TheBruSho big time! I’m gonna split the batch and mix half with a soured half pint to give it the legendary ‘bite’. Hopefully won’t lead to illness......if it does I guess the video will be funnier 😂

Pleased to see that has migrated its way to KZbin!

[@lewisparry8006]

Just bottled my beer today after three days of cold crashing, do I leave it to ferment in bottles two weeks from today, or include the the days it has cold crashed in the two weeks (so 1 week 4 days in bottle) cheers👍🏻

[@BrewBrosUK]

Hi to be honest it won’t make a difference but I’d go for 2 weeks from today. Enjoy 🍺

[@nonameno2006]

So the sanitiser is ok to be in the beer? When I sanitise the fermenter I can just dump out the mix, no need to rinse?

[@BrewBrosUK]

Hi yes, literally just empty the sanitiser solution out and you’re good to go.

[@goodeja]

is there a link for the video for the Punk IPA barrel kit? Brewery in a Box?

[@StoneyardVineyards]

Cheers to great beers that’s why we brew our own and grow hops stay thirsty and brew on stop by

[@BrewBrosUK]

Thanks, will do my friend 👌

[@peterheath8618]

Stupid question I expect but did you use all 3 bags of hops? I thought they were for a choice in flavor

[@BrewBrosUK]

Thanks for watching! Yes we did use all three which is what we recommend you do. The hops dictate bitterness and aroma so they are an integral part of the recipe. Hops added early in the boil add bitterness whereas the hops added late add aroma. Once you’ve done a few brews you can experiment with which hops are added and when as much as you like. That’s part of the fun! Enjoy 🍻

[@peterheath8618]

@@BrewBrosUK thanks for the reply! The instructions weren't overly cheer and this is my first brew so we'll see how it turns out 🤣

@@peterheath8618 happy to help any time!

[@jagz008]

Ahh jeez I totally forgot to strain it when i put it the fermenter 😮

[@DiscoAllman]

Am currently at day 2 and just added the airlock. Bit of sediment at the bottom as you said is good but will that not go into my beer at bottling? Do I not need a filter or some sort?

[@BrewBrosUK]

No you use your siphon/racking cane and work from the top of the beer down and shut it off when you reach the sediment. We made a separate video on this here kzbin.info/www/bejne/bKiYZqGhmcaFrZI

[@DiscoAllman]

@@BrewBrosUK understood cheers. I found the instructions with the kit very poor 👎

[@BrewBrosUK]

@@DiscoAllman happy to help my friend

[@thewrastler]

What if you're over 3.8 l?

[@BrewBrosUK]

Well that’s better than being under 3.8L! Just fill it and discard the rest. If you have more than half a litre spare perhaps your pre-boil volume was higher than it needed to be or your boil wasn’t vigorous enough. Either way it doesn’t matter at this stage.

[@thewrastler]

@@BrewBrosUK I guess you could also calmly boil it off to reduce further too? I wouldn't want to discard too much wort
