I wonder if they have a different flavor at all. That would be a fun experiment but hard to carry out, the same fruit from different regions to compare flavor..
Always enjoy your videos and take on Experimental brewing. Just dropped a fake grape fruit IPA , Loki yeast from Imperial ,and 4 oz. cascade and 2 oz. centennial and a little sterling , just because it was there, in a 2 day dry hop . Hope it turns out well.
Soaking grapefruit in Starsan? Great idea! Tip/Request: Please wear closed toe shoes on brew day (I wear steel toed rubber boots because hot wort!), and please keep that power strip off the floor (@22 mins). Keep up the great work!
Tried to do a fruit beer myself for the first time (got around 4 lb of cherries for free a while back)...a cherry weissbier. Have tried it yesterday (only 4 day in bottle - because I was very curious 😅) ...smells amazing (combination of bananna and cherry but need some time to condition 😄
yup at 20C that would need a blowoff tube :D. This strongly reminds me of my grapefruit IPA recipe, though I mostly went for NZ hops but that's a personal preference of mine. Can't get enough of the expensive suckers. Freezing zest is a good idea.
Not sure how much I can trust a brewer that drinks Singha :P Nice video, great to have the metric measurements. I always wondered how to get the flavors into the wort, thanks to you, I can try the zest + juice route.
Why does everyone hate on Singha?! I love that stuff! It’s also the only beer that I recognize at the Armenian grocery I go to so it’s a choice of necessity.
Would love to watch you make a hazy NEIPA with a high abv like 8.5%! I’m curious to see what kind of recipe grains and hops and additions you would add. Great videos!
Why do US Brewers always throw in yeast nutrients and whirlfloc tablet? Never needed that and have never seen somebody here in Germany do it. Otherwise nice brew.
The whirlfloc really clears up your wort so you don’t end up with as much trub in the fermenter. Honestly I think we’re all really high strung over here and a wee bit paranoid lol
When do you take the grapefruit peel hop bag out? Made this last week and using lallemand bry-97 yeast for it coming along nicely, also hi from Australia 🇦🇺👋
I’m new to homebrewing, I’m curious how do you or anyone go about making your own recipe? Is it just trial and error to determine the different measurements needed for everything? Also new to the channel but loved the video!
You can follow certain style guidelines and wing it, that's what I typically do. All my new recipes I do recipe build videos for, here's a playlist of them ua-cam.com/video/wJHRIX97Qco/v-deo.html
You can get yeast and microbes in by using fresh fruit but the boil will denature the fruit as well it depends on what flavor you like. There are ways to sanitize fruit and fruit juice other than pasteurization (check out campden tablets for wine making)
Hello, I was just watching your grapefruit IPA picked up on the canned hops, and was wondering what you do after you pop the top.?? Do you rebag it and freeze it?
You purge with CO2 and they have these can lid things that pop on to preserve it. I just throw it in the fridge after...my fridge is 50% hops 40% beer and 10% actual food
I used the Cali yeast for my last brew (@ 19 C) with a starting gravity of 1.065 and it ended at 1.011, so your 0.998 seems oddly low. I do use a high quality refractometer (~$100 VEE GEE) and a calculator to read final gravity, so not a hydrometer reading.
@@FloraBrewing I would try comparing yours to a hydrometer for both OG and FG and see if there is an offset you can correct for. I have had pretty good luck using an online correction calc www.brewersfriend.com/refractometer-calculator/ and 1.04 for wort correction factor.
Appreciate the temperature conversions for us abroad folk
Love your work!
You bet!
not me bubba
Love grapefruit and I will try this out for sure!
Thanks for the metric conversions as it’s hard to follow without, cheers for the awesome videos 👊🏾👊🏾
I have the same issue when I'm watching things from anywhere but the US so I know the feeling!
Just made a 1 gallon batch and this is delicious! Thanks for the recipe.
You friging hero putting on the screen conversion °c, kg will help me follow your recipes here in the UK I appreciate you, cheers 👍🍻
The least I can do!
Hey I’m new to this and your videos are straight up gold! Thank you for the great brew info.
We have awesome grapefruit in South Africa.. like the fact you're giving metric measurements too 👍🏻
I wonder if they have a different flavor at all. That would be a fun experiment but hard to carry out, the same fruit from different regions to compare flavor..
Just finished brewing this OG 1.068. I'm excited for this one.
i never get excited,too old :]
Great video! And good looking brewing setup. And also big thumbs up for metrics 🍻
Glad you enjoyed it!
I like the fast-forward-song way too much than I should. Always puts me in a good mood
I was getting worried that I overuse it but it’s just a nice song. I feel the same way
Iv gotta try this👌 cheers Flora always love the vids👍
Thanks for the great video.
Glad you liked it!

The power strip is about to get thrown out the window
Damn girl! Great job. Very informative. Keep up the good work.
Thanks!
Where did you find the "Drink like a German" T shirt that you had on in a previous episode.
Great stuff young lady! 20 year home-brewer born in Honolulu, I was wondering how you might have acquired that cool shirt?
I'm fermenting a Blood Orange IPA. Just put the Blood Orange into the fermenter. Cant wait to drink it in a couple weeks!
Sounds awesome! You should save some for halloween!
@@FloraBrewing good thinking! I'm gonna bottle some I just bought the blichman beer gun
What did U use to get the color and flavor ???
Tried to do a fruit beer myself for the first time (got around 4 lb of cherries for free a while back)...a cherry weissbier. Have tried it yesterday (only 4 day in bottle - because I was very curious 😅) ...smells amazing (combination of bananna and cherry but need some time to condition 😄
The banana will go away over time let it sit and i'm sure it;ll be delightful.
Somebody needs to install a gfci outlet in her brewery..
Ps drinking a fantastic ddh grapefruit ipa while watching this
I'm trying to buy a place so I can actually do what I want to it. When the glycol turns on it dims every light in our apartment.
if you spin the 5 gal jug, make a vortex (funny how racking cane fell out lol)
Great idea!

@@FloraBrewing I will admit of the 5 Thai animal beers (Singha, Tiger, Leo, Chang, Archa) Singha is definitely not the worst.

I have a milkshake IPA on the docket for next week....guess it's gunna be a double milkshake
Sounds awesome can’t wait to see it!
I'm just gonna like and subscribe for those shorts.

@@FloraBrewing Thank you!
You need Spike or SS Brewtech Unitank to ferment in. Nice recipe though.
haha you don't think I have enough gear already!?
@@FloraBrewing never! :)
What kind of fermenters are you using? Especially the see-thru one. Looks like it makes it easier because you can see what’s going on inside

Супер! попробую сварить)
Any reason i should worry adding the juice into primary regarding contamination? Would adding it at the end of boil be a safer way?
You can get yeast and microbes in by using fresh fruit but the boil will denature the fruit as well it depends on what flavor you like. There are ways to sanitize fruit and fruit juice other than pasteurization (check out campden tablets for wine making)
you should do a avacado ipa ,what ya think bubba? hmmmmm :]

How is the Stasis holding up? Do you still like it/recommend it?
It's working great! Thank god with the summer we've had in California!
Wish I could get fresh grapefruit in sweden :P
Sweden's got a lot of other great things to offer :)
For sure, how about a juicy double lingon berry ipa 😏😁

Jamie Moore may I ask what is the reason/background to use 1.04 correction factor?
@@finno2980 The refractometer is calibrated to read sucrose solutions, so this corrects for the difference of how wort reads.
@@moorejl57 thank you. A new thing learnt today!
whats in your sanitiser spray bottle?
Starsan
@@FloraBrewing Thanks very much. Any special dilution or just what' listed on the bottle?
I really need to up my sanitation game...
A grapefruit in in my yard? Yeah that ain’t never happening in Massachusetts
I've only ever lived in FL and CA, you can hardly give them away over here!
The old drill
She doesnt like the old apartment
Using the standard .31 gal /pound ratio for mashing you should only be Using 3.72 gal in your mash. Why are you using 7 gal?
I do a full water mash. The screen doesn't go to the bottom so if I add 3.72 gals the likelihood of being able to even get all the grain wet is low
@@FloraBrewing fantastic!
Good vid, brewday isn't brewday without some good old swearing
My brewdays are getting a little crazy with how much is going wrong lately..I think I have a curse recipe in that NEIPA.
Definitely wish my brewdays only lasted 26 minutes
I would give ANYTHING for a 26 min brewday haha or a 26 min video edit day... either is welcome
You mean going through the footage for a 6-8 hour brew day takes longer than 15 minutes? Blasphemy!
thats some witchcrafty heating control girl
FYI , starsan is not very effective at killing mold or yeast .
Well I've been bamboozled!
OK. What do you suggest.??? I’m brewing I. 2 days
@@tman9338 I honestly do not know , whenever I have added zest & juice (oranges ) it has always been in the last 5 minutes of the boil .
Steve Coppins Okay... for how long ??? Using hop spider ? Hop bullet? Tea bag?
