Hey Larry,
I just tasted my first batch and it came out phenomenal. Everyone loved it. Your American IPA is a fantastic recipe. I was skeptical about the orange peel because the Samual Adams summer brew doesn't go well with the citrus since its an amber beer, but it works great in yours. Thanks a trillion Larry! I couldn't have done it without your great videos. I suffered a brain injury in the military and your visual aids were spot on even with my memory disability. BTW, thanks for the precision advice. My second batch was an efficiency of 81%. It's not hard, just takes time to do all grain brewing. I'm going to do two more batches using your recipe. Over the summer, I hope to create something of my own. I'll keep in touch. Thanks again!
Just watched your whole brew process. I am almost about to keg my beer. Thanks so much for the clear and concise videos. Possibly the best brewing start to finish video series I have seen in the past 6 months. Although, there are a lot of good ones, yours is outstanding! Cheers!
I echo the comments from others that you sir are an inspiration. I too will be starting home brewing thanks to these 6 videos. I like the way you re-purpose things and provide common sense approaches to the process of home brewing.
Thanks again for these videos LArry...I'm doing brew number 30 today and your uploads are what got me started :D
Hello Larry !!! I'm finishing forming my Homebrew equipment !!! Thank you very much for your videos! They have helped me understand a lot about the beer making process. I send you greetings from Asunción - Paraguay, in the heart of South America !!! Daniel Sánchez
Excellent series Larry. Thanks for sharing all that information that it took you so long to acquire.
Great videos! I'm going to start brewing, and after watching, I feel much more confident that I can do this!
Just finished watching your tutorial video series. Thanks for providing great instruction for the beginner all grain brewer. I made many good notes and look forward to my first brew day! Thanks again!
What a brilliant series of videos! Thank you very much for putting these together.
just finished watching your whole homebrewing basics series. loved them. great videos with a lot of information that i wasent getting in the other 100 videos i been watching. thanx for sharing.... i cant wait til i start brewing my own beer. cheers !!!
+BEER-N-BBQ by Larry When, if ever, do you filter the wort/beer?
+BEER-N-BBQ by Larry will try Whirfloc. Never used it before
LOVE the Labbatt’s Blue sign in the background, my staple!!! I wanna learn a good recipe for that!
Larry, these videos are fantastic. Not the best video production, but the information you shared is excellent.
Most clear instructions I've seen so far. Can't wait to try it.
Good video Larry, I just got my first keg system. It’s a single tap Insignia from Best Buy. Looks just like yours.
sir, i had the pleasure of watching all your videos. goood science. you are the future!
I really enjoy your videos! Also thanks for the recipe spreadsheet!
When you start your siphon from the carboy lift the siphon hose off the bottom when you start the first pump ,after it strts flowing then lower it to the bottom that will help keep the yeast on the bottom of the carboy and not in your keg, looks like that first pump had a lot of yeast in it..... Great video
The moment we've all been waiting for! Great job!
LOVE the music! It would be fun sitting on YOUR deck throwing a few down & listening to tunes...
"Brewing beer is worth it". Yes. Yes it is. The only thing that sucks about brewing is getting a craving for a certain beer and then having to wait 3-4 weeks for it to be ready. I read an article about a Polish style called Grodziskie, decided I needed to brew it, brewed it last weekend, and now it's just sitting in a carboy fermenting, when I wanted to try it last weekend.
Good Instructional Video. Thanks for showing your process
Hey Larry! I've watched all of your brewing videos and they have been very helpful. Could you maybe make a video on how you change the PSI and maybe a more detailed look at the carbonation of the beer? I find that my beer is either over-carbonated or not carbonated enough.
Yeah great set up Larry and i enjoy each of your videos :)
Hello there from northern Greece!! Congrats for your amazing videos!! They are trully inspiring! I'm a rookie home brewer and since now, I have only used canned malt extracts to make my beer (succesfully enough I would say).
I have my own production of a special kind of wheat named Triticum dicoccon also known as emmer which I mainly use for bread making flour. After watching your videos I'm considering using it for home brewing too. Have you ever done your own malting or can you suggest instructions on malting how to? There are many videos on YT with the same process but they vary on the time periods.
Another question I would like to ask is about the Cl2 in the water. In my area, tap water is not too much chlorinated so I've used it without filtering for the beer I've brewed since now. How and how much chlorinated water affects the whole process?
Sorry for my veeeeery long post!!!
Kind regards from N.Greece!!
Anthony
Testing the gravity technique! Now I know, thank you!! I didn't want to put the hydrometer into the carboy and lose it for hours risking contamination. This is my first brew, it's burping every 7 seconds on the dot. 36 hours into an APA fermentation.
It looks pretty good
Decent video, keep up the good work!
well its 630am and now i want a beer.... its 5 pm somewhere :) great videos and i guess this is also a sign this video was published on my birthday
Great series Larry, thanks!
Just getting myself started in the home brewing and gonna jump straight to kegging. So thank's for putting up this series of videos!
One quick question - you siphon the beer into the keg, but I'm assuming you need to disassemble and sanitize the keg first? Or just clean it up really good and that's enough?
Fuck yea, Larry. Just finished your series. Easy to watch, listen, and learn. Best part was watching you pour that beer.
Enjoyed the series of video, really well done! So what did the ABV turn out to be?
Great video, how long and at what psi do you leave the keg in the fridge for? What's the estimated co2 vol when finished ? I've been priming in keg with sugar but want to try co2 carbonation
Great video Larry. Enjoying all of your videos! Have you ever tried using the liquid out to carbonate (so the bubbles flow up through the beer) or do you just use the gas in? Cheers
That looks very tasty indeed. Great videos, keep up the good work
that is a great looking beer awesome job man
Thanks for the video Larry looks great! How much psi did you use to carbonate the keg and for how many days? Thanks in advance
wow! it can't get better than that!!! Thank you for sharing!!
eve assefa
great videos larry!!
Arkadaşım ekipmanlar çok iyi ve mükemmel sonuç.Tadını çok merak ediyorum.Tebrikler...
I just finished watching the process. It’s very informative. What’s the abv of this batch? and how do you increase the abv without adding sugar?. Thanks in advance
Love it!!! Mmm thanks for watching video ends, Larry has to finish a beer 🍺 cheers 🍻
enjoyed the video, maybe I missed it but was hoping you could share the brand/model of that keg you used.
Great productions!
You guys are the best! Thank you
Thank you so much to teach me like your this clip
Just wondering, what pressure do you set your keg to, how long do you let it sit, and do you wait for it to chill before putting it under pressure? I was hoping to find that in this video and unfortunately I didn't :/ if you could let me know that'd be great!
What pressure do you put your Co2 to get the keg carbonated? How many days does it take? I just built a keezer and want to make sure my carbonation is on point!
Hi Larry,
Really enjoyed watching your home brew videos. But couldn’t find a video on beer filtering. Could you please record a session of the same.
Thanks
BEER-N-BBQ by Larry thank you. Does the filtration process changes the taste of beer? Or does it only changes the appearance of it?
BEER-N-BBQ by Larry Thank you 👍
wow, i think its time to do an all grain beer instead of the canned variety, which always tend to have that homebrewmy taste to it, many thanks Larry
can you put the co2 pressure to the tank and turn it off then sit aside for a month if you are not going to drink it now. how long would it last in keg under co2 pressure. does this change the taste by letting it set. if you put 5 gallon beer in a 15 gallon keg and put co2 pressure on it does this change anything. THANKS
Hey Larry, after a beer is legged and carbonated, could you pour it off and bottle it. For example, if you want to take some of your own beer to a party. I would be the life of the party if I showed up with a kegerator, but it's a little cumbersome.
Awesome videos, I've watched several and yours are by far the best. Quick question, (sorry if you've answered it somewhere else) Where do you get your hops and grains from?
edgunleshiy
Great video man!
Glad you liked it!
Hi Larry, how long would you usually let to carbonate and chill before drinking?
so you don't have to add sugar then? also can i put the keg and c02 tank in my beer fridge and leave it at say 3 to 4 celsius,the c02 carbonates it then right,i just bought a keg and will follow with all that is needed
Very good instruction larry. Didn't forget to subscribe. However, I was just wondering, in case I don't have a keg & co2 canister, How am I suppose enjoy the Brew? Loads of regards.
Thank You.
Awesome. Can't wait to get started. thanks for your videos! :D
BEER-N-BBQ by Larry
Will do, thanks. Any titles you'd recommend in particular?
Excellent
If you make a 5 gallon batch can you use a 5 gallon keg or does it need to be larger? Thanks
you are alright Larry! great series. E
How do I bottle it? Poor it from the kegg and straight into the bottle?
do you use gelatin to clear the beer at all?
Hey Larry! Love your vids man. Quick question: my wort stopped fermenting at 1.020. OG was 1.060. I'm not sure what happened there, maybe I didn't pitch enough yeast. Do you think I can still carbonate it in bottles with some priming sugar, or should I invest in a keg and carbonate it with that? Cheers man!
@@BEERNBBQBYLARRY I was aiming for 1.010 FG. If it stopped early wouldn't that mean that there isn't enough yeast in the fermenter? So would I still need to add priming sugar even though there's a bunch of unfermented sugars still in solution? Yeast strain was US-05 dry yeast. I mean I'm asking because I'm kind of confused, I don't think I underpitched, I added a gram less than a standard pack to a 5 gallon wort. Didn't aerate or rehydrate the yeast, just plain dry pitched as I always do.
how long do i need to carbonate the keg to pressurize it?
Larry, I have a question, All of by brew's have been Ales and I kegged most of them however the batch I am fermenting right now is a Larger( by mistake,when I bought the kit it came with Larger yeast so I had to keep it at 54-59 degrees) and next week I plan on kegging it. I plan on adding 1/3 cup priming sugar to the keg and adding 5# Co2 to seal the lid and bleed the air out and let it sit for 2 weeks before putting the keg in the kegerator. I have done the quick carb thing but would rather wait and let the beer carb more naturally. Do you have any other suggestions? Thanks, Dale
What beer did you keg in the video Larry?
How many days to carbonate and at what pressure?
Hi Harry, see no sugar ( 6g/L) is added when kegging...is this right?
Hi Larry,
I have a few questions.
I am new to brewery and I am still learning how to do it.
My questions are:
- why some other brewers add sugar at some point of brewing?
- the pill that you have added at the end of process for sterilization of wort, can I brew without it? what would be the appropriate replacement?
Thanks! Sorry for asking stupid questions and using bad words. :)
Great video ! I have a question; why homebrewed beer causes headaches? with just a couple of glasses I mean? Did something went wrong, or something?
Mmmm, then is due to alcohol level. I do like beer, dark ones actually but one or two tall glasses tops. Thanks for your prompt response!!
im thinking of brewing my own beer. i just watched your videos and like how you dont use all those fancy crazy crap they sell online... this is straight up home brewing!
by the way... what was the alcohol percentage for this ale??
+BEER-N-BBQ by Larry cool!! not bad.
What was the final alcohol content?
thx for sharing! nice Vid man!
Nice. Just found your channel. regular guy! Where did you get the "siphon" pump that transfers beer from carboy to key? Thanks!
The auto siphon? either my local home brew store or online. You can search for auto siphon and get a lot of hits.
Лучшее видео во всем интернете! Супер!
regarding the sentiment in the bottom of the glass jug where the beer fermented, can you also put that in the keg or not?
thanks alot for the response. wondering, for what ever reason if you have worked the numbers, but is it cheaper to home brew than it is to buy beer at the store?
Very Nice, Thank you!
Where did you get that kegerator? Looks amazing
@@BEERNBBQBYLARRY Thank you, definitely gonna consider purchasing one
2 days and it's carbonated? what did you set your psi to?
What's the PSI of the kegged beer.
Thanks! 👍
How long will the beer stay fresh in the keg? How much Co2 pressure did you pump into the beer
@@BEERNBBQBYLARRY I have been brewing extract kits for years now, Thinking about moving up to all grain brews. Great Videos
So whats the diffrence between all grain and just using a kit ?? Also watched the whole sieries really enjoyed it keep it up man Cheers 🍻🍺
thank you!!
thanks for you
Question for you. I recently started kegging and I’m having an issue with carbonation. I’ve checked and all my fittings are tight, no leaks, and CO2 is on. I get good head on the beer but very minimal co2 bubbles in the beer itself and i can’t figure out why. I’ve tried force carbonating and just waiting with a lower psi. Can you think of anything that might be causing this?
You need to force carb it. When you first keg it, put the psi to 30 and rock the keg back and forth for a couple minutes. Disconnect the gas line and let sit for a day or so. Set regulator to 10 psi and enjoy. It should have a lot more co2 in solution.
Someone told me you have a beer line length calculator, what episode is that on? Thanks
It’s originally from this video: ua-cam.com/video/w6whE1jrVQ4/v-deo.html
My brewing spreadsheet now includes it as a tab, so it can be downloaded from my website and used as well.
TY THIS WAS GREAT
DO you still add priming sugar before siphoning into the keg?
BEER-N-BBQ by Larry
I have a CO tank for my kegs but I have never legged any home brew
Do you think it is okay to get a refurbished keg? It says they are pressure tested and everything, but say they won't look brand new.
@@BEERNBBQBYLARRY Awesome thank you!
Thanks man for such great series of videos.
but...errr....to be honest, with so many detail videos, I found it very hard to believe there is nothing about bottling, which is a very crucial part of home brewing.
How long does the beer last in an active keg before it goes bad?
Depends on the beer, your sanitation practices, and whether the beer get exposed to air during racking post fermentation.
Sometimes a matter of weeks or up to several months.
I like your no non sense approach, we’re making home brew for fun and that’s all that matters
What's the recipe for that particular beer Larry, do you recall?
Thanks Larry. Learning a lot from your videos. You're doing a great job of demystifying the whole process. Keep up the good work
Did you prime the beer or did I miss that part?
Great Video Larry! How much time do you force carbonate for? at what PSI?
sometimes homebrew tastes like inferior homebrew and sometimes its incredible. i just sampled some brews at a brewing supply store that were amazing. i honestly dont really like anything i buy at the store or on tap anywhere compared to those..
informative but you didnt talk about setting PSI for carbonating and then bleeding and dropping it for serving pressure which is a vital step in the keg process otherwise you will have a volcano coming out of the tap
Recipe?
CHIIIIIEEEEEEEF :D Thanks for the videos!
so you do not prime the beer with sugar?
Not in kegs. Not anymore. I prefer to force carbonate.
