My copy of "How to brew" is by far my most used brewing book. It helped me become a good brewer, won a few medals. Thanks John.

On the other hand, "Water" is not a great book!

Going to call you two the Dynamic Duo, excellent video with discussions and supporting tests! Must watch for anyone that brews!

John is a bottle of knowledge. Excellent collab

14:23 I think it's clear that the final gravities weren't the same but very similar, maybe a difference of 0.001 or less

Excellent show. Doing an excellent job with video version of Brulosophy franchise

Little surprised water chemistry didn’t make the top 5 since John devoted an entire book on the subject.

I guess the thing is water chemistry can make a good beer great, but it's not going to make a bad beer good, if it was a top 6 list, I'm water would have make it :)

Made the same comment last video but, it's great to see that most of his points corresponded with a statistical significant result. We are getting more and more in depth with the "minutiae" of beer brewing but the main principles outweigh them by a mile. keep reading, keep researching but remember the basics determine the taste. ps. I still struggle with Ferm temp and most of my beers have a terrible yeast taste. keep it up brewers!!!

make a swamp cooler and rotate frozen water bottles of various sizes. You'll have to determine the size and switching rate through trial and error also depending on your target temp but it works!

John Palmer's book got me into brewing around 22 years ago. Having brewed continuously ever since, I agree with all points in this video although a couple I would have placed at a higher priority.

Excellent podcast. Every point confirmed, impressive. I especially liked that you would not do the exbeeriment with unsanitary beer. Kinda like Harley Davidson refusing to make an all chrome bike for Stallone. 'Not cool.'

Extra high quality stuff! Keep it up amigos

This was interesting, I think this has been the most statistically significant results in a video ever. It would have been nice to know the preferences of the tasters to see if it matches the expectation over the variables. I am curious about the boil, where I live because of the altitude and air pressure water boils at around 92° C, not sure if the important part is the boiling or the temperature.

16:15 I may have just found why my ipas always seem to come out not very hoppy!!! More research is needed but that might be it

It's not the starsan itself that I worry about. I read somewhere that the reason they use the phosphoric acid in starsan is because it is either imperceptible in beer or that the yeast do something to it that makes it imperceptible. I do have concerns about the air/oxygen trapped in starsan bubbles though and have wondered whether it speeds up or increases oxidization of the beer. I recently switched to a low-foaming sanitizer to see if it makes a difference.

Great video!!!

Good list but I'm surprised cold side oxidation didn't make the list. You can take a perfect beer and ruin it if you dont mind oxygen on the cold side.

Where can I find some Brulosophy beer glasses like the ones at the 11:00 mark? I don't see anything but shirts on the Amazon store.

hmmm...did you pick results to make John feel good? Some of the non-significant xbmts that surprise me the most are the ones on widely different fermentation temps. I tend to think that I get different results from 66F vs 68F vs 70F and that my beers are much better with temp control...but??? Cheers! 🍻

I get the "Dont fear the foam" before fermentation, but post fermentation this is an issue. Heres my thought... That foam is essentiall bubbles - filled with air/oxygen! Why is the beer not oxidising considering the tiniest amount of oxygen required to do so and ruin the beer. Are we missing something or are we overreacting regarding oxygen post fermentation? Cheers!

True! This is why I avoid the foamy stuff and do everything with 70% isopropyl, especially in the fermenters. By the way: we might actually be related according to our profile pics 😂

I used to love this guy! Than I bought the book and had a big deception.. I don't understand why people take it has an exemple. Im not a pro and I wish you all the best. This is only my opinion.

Might be a bit "meta", but nevertheless: Time. Take your time, reserve it, block it, lock the doors, break your phone or whatever it takes to get your well-deserved 7 hours without any interruption.

Good video. The last part has nothing to do with the impact of sanitation per se, it is just about the impact of star san foam vs. no foam. Folks, don't stress about sanitation, but do clean well. No visible soils is 99.999999999% of infection-free beer. Sanitizing is just an insurance policy...as long as you clean well.
