My second homebrewed rice beer.
And a lot of home brewing tips on the way.
Brewing video, recipe, tasting.
I'm fermenting under pressure in the Fermentasaurus conical fermenter. If you're not using a pressurized fermenting vessel I would suggest fermenting a bit colder and for longer if you're using lager yeast.
How to make an all grain rice beer at home easy.
Diy rice beer!

No matter what it is I’d like to brew, Dr.Hans has a video on it For The Win! Great channel!
Thank you so much
Interesting recipe. I've brewed about a dozen rice beers over the years. I've used flaked rice a couple times and Louisiana medium grain rice for the rest. I didn't like the flaked rice as much as using regular white rice. I cook the rice with some crushed malt and much more water than you would normally cook rice. Once this mixture is cooked, I will add it to the rest of the barley malt mash to bring it up to mash temperature (150-152F for a light bodied beer). The ratio is about 2/3's barley malt to 1/3 rice at 12.5 plato, your basic American Premium Lager. It's a nice beer to drink. I should make one soon as it's been many years since the last.
Cool, thanks for sharing!
This episode was really, really good Johnny! Keep going with this! Really appreciated. Cheers!
Glad to hear you liked it. Cheers buddy!
Thanks for the video. I really appreciate how you explain everything.
Thanks for sharing. Cheers buddy!
What a great in depth process video. Very nice! Cheers!
Thanks Ryan, cheers!
Really enjoyed the in depth and length of the video. Thanks man. Peace.
Man, what a wonderful colour the black rice has! I just brewed a Asian Spiced Californian Common with 1.5kg’s of Jasmine Basmati, I didn’t rinse ( I do if I’m cooking) because I thought I’d loose valuable starch but as it goes the cooked rice turned into a thick cake which made it a bit tricky to break up in the mash. I managed to loosen it up and my efficiency was sky high giving me another 4 litres of beer. I will upload a G2G of it very soon as it’s been in the bottle now for over a month. The lager you have brewed looks amazing, as most of yours do👍🏻 cheers 🍺🍻
Ah thanks for the input. So maybe rinsing the rice ain't all bad after all. Love how the rinsing of the rice really get a blown up in the discussion like that's where all the starches are. :D cheers buddy!
That looks tasty. I really need to make space for a lagering fridge.
You can't have to many fridges Larry!
Great video Dr. Thanks for all the hard work making a full grain to glass. I have not brewed with rice yet. I have thought that if I did I would try to crack the rice grains before boiling to get a better extraction. Yes I agree, a bigger pot and longer cooking time would seem to have helped also. Especially with the black rice. All in all, you got beer and a very nice beer. Cheers.
Thanks! Maybe just mix it with a food processor after boiling. Yes it ended with beer after all. Cheers!
Thanks for sharing fellow Hansian
Thanks Hans!
Check out my most popular Rice beer video: bit.ly/2ECKntt
You only need to rinse your rice if it indicates on the bag that you should. Typically bulk rice in huge sacs is the rice you need to rinse, smaller store bought packages as the one's shown in the video do not need to be washed (unless otherwise stated). Cheers! Hope this helps :)
You might be right, cheers!
What a great brew. I love your experiments 👍👍👍 keep it coming ⭐️
Rice: will make sense to rinse like you did. Normally you do it to remove impurities, in this sense also starch, which is ferment able? Don’t think you lose a lot.
To skim or not: again, was brought up with foam on boiling liquids is impurities, so I skim 😊
Thanks, yes I wont rinse next time, keep on skimming cheers!
Rinsing the rice with cold water should not affect starch really, its the hot wawa and enzymes that will affect it. However, rinsing the rice will get rid of dust and bug parts that inevitably gets in there as part of manufacturing/transport. I also believe that many companies may not put anything artificial in the food, however many times packaging is coated with chem,icals that slow bacteria, so rinsing is def not a bad thang!!! ....... BTW, love the video on brewin with rice, I been wanting to Brew and IPA and add some brown basmati rice, lemon grass and nutmeg perhaps...... still playing with it in my twisted head!
Thank you so much
Great fun Hans. I’m just about to start back at home brewing after many years away. I’m looking to make a beer to match the whiskey that my village produces - Aberlour in speyside. Slainte 🍻🥃
Sounds cool, good luck with that. Let me know how it goes for you. Cheers!
Yes to rinsing rice..get rid of dust and etc. Also, use organic rice, you really want to avoid arsenic (and pesticides) from the vermin poisons rice farmers use. The starch conversion is a fascinating scientific subject..there are reasons to not cool after heating, or rather avoid repeated hot and cool cycles, the starches can fold back up, it’s actually a fairly complicated topic..
A really good and detailed video. Cheers. The next all grain I have lined up is using rice - only 500g and flaked. It’s gonna be a bit of everything I left over recipe, but hoping I get a decent brew out of it!
Thanks buddy! What kind of beer are you planing? Need to do a clean up beer soon aswell.
DrHans Brewery looking at the recipes it’s gonna be a cross between a Japanese and American rice lagers, but, will need to do a stock take of what I have remaining. Fingers crossed!
It is recommended to rinse rice several times to remove any arsenic. I think brown rice has more than white rice. You can look it up.
I quit checking my mash with iodine years ago. Maybe with rice you need to mash a little longer but I wouldn't worry too much about it. Good video.
Ah nice note there. I have always rinsed my rice so it's a natural step for me. I don't do the iodine test myself either. But I've have got some questions about it so I'd thought I would show it. Thanks mate, cheers!
Yes..the iodine test only shows when conversion hasn’t finished, but not when it “has” completely finished. I’ve seen lots of experiments where the test shows finished, but the sugars continue to increase..so, maybe 15-30 minutes after it shows done would get a few more points and maybe some more unfermentables as well.
Nice video DrHans
Yes, you are losing some starches rinsing, but also getting rid of any dirt and rubbish that may have made it into the rice pack.
I keep meaning to try and brew something using red yeast rice.
It's very expensive here in Australia from the health food stores, but quite cheap in China, so I get people to bring it back for me when they go there 👍
Not sure if you can make actually make a beer with it, but it's nice in fermented pickles.
When I actually try it I'll let you know and do some video footage whether it works or is a total disaster.
Thanks! Yes keep me updated on that. Cheers!
We recreated your recipe, but cooked the rice properly. We got 1.040 as post boil gravity. Fermenting using Brewferm Lager yeast in a bucket at 12/13ºC. At day 14 gravity was 1.012. Tomorrow will be day 16 of fermentation and will make another gravity read.
Awsome, so cool, please keep me updated!
@@DrHansBrewery FG was 1.011. ABV around 3.8% if my math is correct. Just started cold crashing. We'll keg it, force carbon and then we'll see...
@@carlos76437 exciting!
@@DrHansBrewery our first batch is still lagering in a keg. Is there a chance you'll be interested in tasting and sending us your feedback once we bottle it? Today we made a second batch of the same recipe. Made a few corrections to the brewing process and got a preboil gravity of 1.040 (brewfather said 1.041) and an initial gravity of 1.048 (brewfather said 1.045). This time we're using saflager s189. Cheers.
@@carlos76437 Would be great. Send me a mail at drhansbrewery@gmail.com.
Timely video. When I did sake over the summer, the instructions had the rice thoroughly rinsed. I am somewhat interested in doing a rice beer at some point for sng
Cool, thanks for sharing!
Here's an experiment for the rice rinsing. Collect your rinse water ( use a 1liter clear water amount to start with ) and take a gravity reading of the rinse. It might be worth keeping? And you can determine the absorption rate of rice.
Good idea
Man if i only had this video when i first started.
Thanks Michael, maybe someone will!
another high quality video. thanks Doc. I assume the boiling of the rice is to break it down to make it mushy. maybe that is part of the reason there was no sticking mash problems. it would be interesting to see how everything came out with longer boiling time of the rice. too bad it wasn't pink. cheers Doc
Thanks buddy. If you look at the last rice beer I did when the rice was boiled properly you'll see that I got 76% efficiency. My normal value for a barley beer is 78%. Here's the video ua-cam.com/video/H2ENuEzn6uY/v-deo.html
Cheers!
Yes you can germinate brown rice with the husk on . Soak it in water overnight. Then put it in a large glass vessel and put it in a dark warm spot. When the the little shoots are about 3/4 length of the rice corn remove the rice and put it in a cloth bag or old pillow case and dry it in a cloth dryer on the lowest setting. After you have to roast the rice to your liking . There is a lot of info on the net how and what temperature to malt the it. Same as malting grains.
Good luck
Cool, thanks Peter.
If I was to germinate the rice, would this mean I don’t have to cook it in water now? I can just add it to my grains to be milled?
@@evidentlyerik after the germination process you have to dry it and then do the malting. Good luck
Really nice video Doc.! Egen though I usually prefer shorter vids. For color aybe you should try with only black rice next time!? And it was gutsy to boil that much rice in such a small pot!
Cheers!😛👍🍺
It was just a stupid move choosing such a small pot. Wont happen again. Well, some like em short and some long. So I will mix my videos up. Cheers mate!
hey df Hans try to malt the rice . I've done one brew with my own malted rice. It turned out very nice. Good flavour
cheers happy brewing
Thanks! Yes I have to do that aswell one day. Cheers!
My understanding of malting is that it is a germination of the seed, then arresting the germination by drying (heating). Is it possible to germinate store bought rice?
As long it's brown rice with husk on and not GMO it will sprout. See my reply
@@peterfuchs7822 Thanks Pete!
I used to skim the foam, but when I moved to 3 vessel system the wort is so much cleaner when going to boiling that there are hardly any brown foam anymore. Can also see what is left in the mash tun, a layer of brown protein gunk left behind.
3.5% Folköl/folkøl !
Yes folköl. What a difference a 3.5% beer is when you brew it properly. Cheers!
Congrats on the video! one question: how do you obtain efficiency value? thanks!
I would recommend using a brewing software. There are both free and paid. I use Beersmith.
Looks like a good drop!!! How you think it would work out with using us05 or nottingham. I just got a robobrew v3 and am looking for some different brews to do such as this one but I don't like taking up my fermentation chamber for as long as lagers take. Cheers great vids keep em coming.
Thanks! Have a look at my first rice beer video. That One was brewed with wlp001 which ain't very far from US05.
Here's the video ua-cam.com/video/H2ENuEzn6uY/v-deo.html
Great stuff. Brewing with rice - crazy.
Would you do this again and did the rice bring anything special or is it more for the fun of the experiment?
And I've just been googling Swedish swear words. Love all the devil stuff as the Scandi folklore is so much fun. Cheers.
I will definitely do it again. Maybe not the exact thing as I like to brew new stuff. But an addition of rice in a stronger beer to lighten it up sounds like a good idea to me. I think the rice brought about what corn does it did remind me off my cream ale quite a bit.
ua-cam.com/video/bUnD_GS0-HY/v-deo.html
Glad you liked my cursing. Consider cutting it out, but now I'm glad I didn't. Cheers buddy!
Another great one. Thanks. Would you happen to have any insight to the importance of temperature control when fermenting under pressure. Is it as important? One could be lead to thinking that the impact of pressure at least at this level somewhat has a bigger impact on the final result than a few degrees fluctuation of the temperature inside the fermenting vessel? This is just speculation from my side, but you are at least on the home-brew side somewhat of an authority on the subject now.
Thanks for your kind words! Great question. I'll have to take that one with me. Definitely gonna experiment with that. As I have this method now quite dialled in it way time to start doing some experiments. Wish I hade the answers right away for you but I need more time to experiment. Cheers!
Nice video and still awesome color even though it didn't get the rice color! :) Maybe next time add some of the dark rice without pre-boiling to the mash. Just to get the color...
Where did you get the adapter for your power drill to the mill or how do you call an adapter like that ? greetings from DK
Thanks! The adapter came with the mill. Yes really a shame that it lost its colour cheers!
Hello Dr. Hans, I'm Asia. Have you ever brew a beer without hops but herbs? the reasons I ask this because many of people here don't like bitterness of hops. Great videos btw
Not yet!
Maybe crushing the rice before boiling will help with efficiency
Maybe I haven't tried
The last few recipes of mine that contained rice, I've put the rice thru a food processor just to increase the surface area. Nothing outrageous, just to cut the the rice up a bit. I don't really see the point in rinsing it either. If your going to be eating it I've heard it's a good practice, for brewing though...I don't know. Also, maybe increase your grain addition. Your diastic power may have been low(Lintner). Try to keep it above 70, but 90 is even better. Good video though, keep up the good work.
Yes I have been thinking of using a food processor that way. I have a crazy idea for another episode, so stay tuned. Well pilsner malt should have the enzymes to convert a lot of extra starges. I've read 50%. Next time I will not rinse the rice, promise! Cheers buddy!
@@DrHansBrewery well, each type of grains diastic power is different. Pils is around 125. If half of your grain bill has no diastic power (125÷2=62.5), you've brought your lintner below the recommended 70. Which of course is going to mess with your conversion. Don't confuse total grain bill %, with overall lintner.
@@DrHansBrewery oh and just as a side note. I doubt rinsing is going to make any appreciable difference in gravity. I just choose not to. If pesticides are a concern, then it may be better to go ahead and rinse. Arguing to rinse/not rinse just seems silly, when we are probably talking less than a point of gravity. I like your videos, keep them coming.
Thanks for the input. Appreciate it really. About the rinsing it's surprising how that topic really gets blown up. Cheers mate!
i dont think you are loosing too much starch because when u rinse, u wash the outside of the seed. the starch is inside of it and it doesnt dissolve in water. the starch u loose is basicly dirt.
Yes I feel the same!
Have you brewed anything with rice or any other adjuncts in large quantities?
i brewed a 1.125kg pack of black rice as a rice wine using the same yeast/mold balls as you use for chinese rice wine and found the colour was red and it was very packed with tannins, tasted of dry tree leaves. this is probably why its traditionally brewed to be sweet. i also decided to pasteurise it as the yeast killing process and at that stage it tasted like a nice tea. an alcoholic acidic tea. very nice. i needed to backsweeten because i fermented it dry instead of stopping it at a set time.
DrHans Brewery i,ve brewed with flaked corn. (1,5kg) to make a mexican lager. Turned out to be a great beer.
I once brewed with rye bread. It turned out really interesting. I need to do it again, but with more bread and adjust the mashing. So what happened was that the wort SG was too low, like very low and in a panic I threw sugar in it. More ABV, but the taste was bland.
Dude i like your vids but the lip smacking when you are tasting makes me want to turn the vid off lol.
Rice has no fermentable sugars, instead it contains gluten. to turn rice into alcohol you should use rice leaven also known as Qu. Qu not only contains yeast, it also contains Jiuqu. Jiuqu consists of several types of mould which feed on the gluten and turn it into fermentable sugars. However rice will add to the mouthfeel making your beer taste more creamy.
That's why I mashed it with the grains.
I wonder how a decoction mash would effect rice
Yeah... I'm pretty sure time is standard all around the world... no conversions needed LOL
mrpieceofwork 😂
Hi, how do you store your pH-meter? Upright with storage solution in the cap or maybe in a jar with storage solution?
Upright with storage solution in the cap.
DrHans Brewery thanks a lot!
@@MrTalnoy no problem
Yes, why rinse the rice?, boiling will kill any bacteria, and it was rinsed prior to packaging.
Wont do it again, promise!
Rice is not rinsed before packaging.rice should be rinsed thrice.
Can you experiment with banana beer?
Tell me more
@@DrHansBrewery Actually i have watch lot of youtube vids regarding this but none of them perfected it. I wanted to know to can beer be made from banana? If yes can you make a video of this?
A few drops of Ferm Cap will keep a boilover from happenening
Ive started use that for my starters. But in brewday I just think I should be able to hold an eye on it. Sometimes I don't :( cheers!
Or just spray some sterile solution over the top
what's the name of the drill nut used here 10:00 ?
It came with the mill, so I dont know im afraid.
RICE BEER WTF WHO ARE YOU OMG WOW SUBBED JESUS NICE JOB WTF
Thanks mate!
Hur tusan får du så klar öl?
Det finns egentligen tre olika metoder:
Tid
Klarningsmedel
Filtrering
Just den här ölen minns jag inte, men det var inte filtrering iaf, så de lämnar de andra två.
I have made a 100% wheat beer, but it was boring, well very bland. I use corn and rice all the time.
Cool, I haven't made a 100% wheat beer yeat!
so now that you have rinsed all the starch off the rice you can continue to make a bud clone shame no no no
Thanks for watching, cheers!
You should spend less time showing scooping and shoveling, crushing etc.
Thanks for your input. This video was an experiment
