Episode #1: Force Carbonation in a Unitank
How I carbonate in a unitank/conical fermenter. This is a great workaround if you don't have brite tanks in your brewery. Enjoy!

    Why don't you put a quick disconnect fitting on your Co2? What pressure can that glass handle? You don't want that to blow. Great information and video , cheers

    Thanks for a clear explanation. When you fill a keg is there any issue with putting carbed beer into it?

    Dude!!! I’m 27Brewing names Josh. Grew up in Chapel Arm NL Just seen this video. I’m a home brewer. But I use all SS equipment from SS brew tech. I have chillers etc so more than a typical home brewer. Still at it we wha?

    Why not save yourself a bunch of time and money and just put your spunding valve on towards the end of fermentation and cap it at about 12-14psi based on desired carb level?

  • @BrewingBowman
    @BrewingBowman 9 місяців тому

    So…would it work to just turn the gas on to just a few psi over the wetting pressure and let it go overnight? Be more gentle and scrub the beer less? Or does it need to be ABOVE what the sounding valve is set to?

    The only thing I would have done here is no flush the yeast through the carb stone. Instead just use sight glass and butterfly valve then hookup carb stone. Also use a pigtail spigot to do tasting from the tank.

    • @KellerBi3r
      @KellerBi3r Рік тому

      If you think about it. By flush in the yeast, you are also eliminating any potential D.O pick up.

    How long do you need to carbonate normally. Home brewers say about 2 days ? . Im looking to get a 10 Gallon SS Brewtech Brite tank to clear the beer and hoping to carbonate it with co2. But how do i know for how long i need to carb the beer.

  • @josepena4515
    @josepena4515 Рік тому

    I really enjoyed the video. I just didn't comprehend how the time of carbonation is determined. I only brew 15 gallon batches. Could someone explain?

  • @hobbetychop3533
    @hobbetychop3533 Рік тому

    What are you using the sight glass to look for exactly?

    • @sargedavid
      @sargedavid Рік тому

      Looks to be when the beer runs clear instead of a bunch of yest and then to make sure that there is bubbles happening and the carb stone isn't clogged / working properly by making a bunch of bubbles.

  • @enigmatic1976
    @enigmatic1976 Рік тому

    I noticed you didn't purge the CO2 line, through the stone, with gas before purging the assembly of yeast... wouldn't you be oxidizing your beer?

  • @clubroot3383
    @clubroot3383 2 роки тому

    Clear video. Have you heard of “bottle conditioned beer”? You could save a lot of CO2 by closing of the Unitank and let it self pressurise in the last 2 days of fermentation until attenuation is achieved at a lower temperature of 10C approx. Then cold crash, dump the last residual yeast and pack for retail sale. You would retain all of the hop aromas which you are losing with CO2 scrubbing in this video.

  • @JAWSFREE
    @JAWSFREE 2 роки тому

    You can do your initial yeast pull through the racking arm. This will give you the heart of the yeast and clear out your racking arm for your co2

  • @toddbartlow8770
    @toddbartlow8770 2 роки тому

  • @CarlosLopez-uk9pr

    awesome video. I have a question on ID of the gas line. I have 5/16id line on hand, would that size force carb adequately a 500L Brite tank? does it make much difference whether its 5/16id or 1/2id? Cheers

    After carbonation how do you maintain CO2 levels in UT, i get carbonation but due to lockdown beer was sitting in UTs which i need to force carbonize again n again. What do you suggest to maintain CO2 levels

    Forgive my ignorance, as I’m only just learning about spunding valves - why do you not capture some of the CO2 created during fermentation, using the spunding valve to regulate the desired pressure? Also, I noticed in this particular video you didn’t harvest any of the yeast. Is this something you do only some of the time?

    • @XkannsenX
      @XkannsenX 2 роки тому

      on some beers you want some esters that you loose if you ferment under pressure.

    Great instructional video. I hope you do more of these types of video in the near future! One question, you mentioned using the spray ball arm for purging with CO2 as the blow off may have residual yeast, etc., in the line. When attaching the spunding valve, did you bleed/blow off prior to attaching the valve?
