Vevor Electric Brew Kettle | First All Grain Brew | 2023

[@malcolmwhite-b3m]

Hey Mathew great video , a no nonsense over edited thing & your were clear in your commentary thanks . I .m looking to move into full grain brewing after making 6 brews from the can type brews and have found that they all seem to turn out tasting the same and are too dark in colour for my liking and hoping i can get a bit of variety with the full grain route I did find a recipe which i saved for a cherry beer that used champagne yeast the seemed appealing to me cheers Mal

@@malcolmwhite-b3m Glad it helped. I've been really busy with school, so I haven't made many more videos, but I'll be making more around the end of the year when I'm finished with my degree.

Thank you I orderd mine should be here soon

[@cadejogaming864]

Hey, thank you for the information. I am planning to buy one of those at the end of the year. I noticed that the video was uploaded a year ago, are you still using it? Have you encountered any issues so far with the equipment? Any impact on the electric bill? Thanks and cheers 🎉

[@matthewgregory7304]

@cadejogaming864 Hey man, not really. Everything is pretty smooth. Been using it. Just treat it well and it'll do the job.

I'm waiting for mine so I can do corn mashed 😮

[@blueinfiniti22]

Thanks for this. Considering getting this one myself

[@matthewgregory7304]

Glad I could help!

[@patlaf3680]

One question I do have to use a separate pump for cooling or . If the same pump of the machine?

[@matthewgregory7304]

@patlaf3680 the pump only circulates the liquid inside your kettle. So, for cooling you'll want to hook up a cold water stream to your coil. It's not too difficult.

[@musicengineer08]

Ok so how would this work if I want to brew TEA? Will this be ok to brew?

[@ronsmith9992]

Are you using the 8 Gal or 9.2 Gal model?

[@Michael-y3r6k]

Just unboxing mine. I cant lift thr grain basket out. it wont go pst the wire ring its suppose to rest on. how do you lift it out? please

[@matthewgregory7304]

@user-wt9hf4df2l You have to turn it. It you look, there's protruding parts of the inner ring for the feet to fit on, and then there are concave areas so that you can turn the basket and the feet will slip out. That tricked me too, lol

[@sfazey]

Can you sparge with the grain basket up and draining? After adding more hot water?

[@matthewgregory7304]

I do. The Vevor has a pump that you can switch on to circulate but I wouldn’t use it to sparge. I brew 8 gals and will strike with 6ish and the sparge afterward to get it up to 8. Seems to work fine. If your OG/FG is off, you can always add a lb or 2 of cane sugar during your boil to bump it up 1 or 2%.

[@sfazey]

@@matthewgregory7304 Why would you not use it to sparge? If the arm is long enough, it looks like a perfect scenario with the basket up and spreading the water over the grain bed. I'm really close to buying one, that's why I ask. Thanks

[@matthewgregory7304]

@@sfazey Because then you’re sparging with your mash. Not rinsing your grain with clean water to rinse all the sugars off your grain. I’ve just found that I get better results if you sparge without the pump.

[@sfazey]

@@matthewgregory7304 That's true. Thanks for your time.

[@LordDeViR]

Going to be ordering one soon, so wanted to know if it can handle the pressure. Also, why drink commercial beer when you make your own? :)

[@davidfisher9051]

Thanks for the video. I'll be brewing for the first time with my Vevor tomorrow. I'm just sad you were somehow reduced to drinking PBR during brew day 😂

[@matthewgregory7304]

Lol I ran out of home brew! I’ll brew again this week and do a step by step video.

[@abrad3061]

PBR is awesome, you must look up and old Dennis Hopper movie called Blue velvet. "what's your favorite beer? Heineken, fuck that $hit Pabst Blue ribbon"

[@stevegerla8894]

What size hose for the wort chiller? Does it need to b high temp

[@abrad3061]

Can you please do a video on the controller I hate the instructions 😊

[@matthewgregory7304]

I think I’m brewing this weekend and if I do then I’ll make a video for it!!

[@mmckivigan]

I’m curious how you are calculating your strike water volume - typically it’s around 1.25 quarts per pound of grain - if you are doing 15 pounds of grain I would think 3 gallons is the correct number but you said you’ve got about 5 gallons of water in the pot. So, are you adding additional water because of the loss due to the false bottom sitting up?

[@StoneyardVineyards]

Cheers to good beer we just subscribed after finding your channel . We home brew beer grow hops, make mead and different wines and others on our channel . Stay thirsty friend and brew good beer.

[@matthewgregory7304]

Thanks for the follow! A lot more beer to come. I’ll check out your channel as well!

[@mikedilly9896]

How long did it take to get the strike water to temp? Then how long to bring the wort to boiling temp?

[@matthewgregory7304]

I dint remember but I'll be brewing again in about a week and I'll try to update you.

[@jamesrivera-cars-credit-loans]

Does your top sparge plate fit unevenly?

[@matthewgregory7304]

It’s awkward, but if you lube up the edges of it with some water, it will slide in much easier.

[@DjMachineTV]

What is PCB Button?

[@studiomotionbelgie]

Does anyone know the diameter of the line that goes into the sink (mm x mm)? Thanx

[@TheGerry3rd]

Hold the temperature key for at least 3 seconds it will switch over to Fahrenheit.

[@matthewgregory7304]

Thank you!

[@JohnDoe-es5xh]

This bla bla in the background is very disturbing. Anyway, good contribution to brewing with the VEVOR automat.
