Mate, sitting here on a Friday night, sober as and you trip, I had to have a giggle Pierre, that must be what i look like when i get home from the pub, nice trip great recovery 10/10, love your vids cant wait for the taste test
Brewed one of these a few weeks back with some pride of ringwood hops, haven't tried it yet as it's still bottle aging. Love your videos mate, I find them very relaxing.
Thanks I am always very clumsy and used to tripping on things but seem to come out of it mostly unscathed. I agree about the live tasting idea it will be happening once it's ready.
Hi Pierre I owe you a massive thank you! I started adding campden tablets to my brews after seeing you do this. The difference has been huge! No more off flavour in my beer!! I thought my tap water was ok. Had no idea what a different the chlorine/ chloramide would make. Cheers!!
Maltodextrin is mostly not fermentable and wouldn't contribute much to alcohol content. LDME, or better still a combo of LDME, dex and a little maltodextrin would give a better result in terms of alcohol content, flavor and head retention. Cool vid mate.
Where do I begin? First are you saying you can buy beer extract at your local grocery store? That seems crazy from my perspective but cool too. Flies...I keep forgetting it is Summer time in your neck of the woods and supposedly flies can smell rotting meat from up to 7 km away and I strongly suspect they can smell sugar from close to that same distance. (Why I have that pitcher plant you've seen which is struggling to survive our Florida winter). Also I officially think you are probably just as accident prone as I am and found it scary but slightly entertaining (once we knew you didn't eat it)... I usually cut those from my vids but have been considering a blooper reel for something not much different. Lastly - Fermzilla - I use to want one of those but you an a few other brew tubers scare me with that thing always checking for leaks plus all the areas it could leak. Also I've heard that it supposedly has a shelf life which I would think you could just replace the o-rings but for now I'll stick to my glass and few cheap plastic carboys.
I think it's all the covid zombies walking around attracting the flies. I tend to leave mishaps in my videos as I can't seem to find the time to make blooper reels. as for the Fermzilla, most leaks come from the quick connects on top, if you maintain the O'Rings they really never give any problems. After about two years of using PET fermenters it's recommended to pressure test them for durability.. I have pressure tested my Fermentasaurus at 70 psi with the fermenter full of water it held the pressure for 2 minutes without a problem. It's now good for two more years.
Hello Pierre love your videos I've been binge watching them all. I do have a question, I make stouts by mixing light extracts with dark speciality gains I make a wort from them an go from there. Do u think I could use the homebrand extract as my base malt To make my stouts, I only make dark beer, because I only make what i personally love to drink.
Oh yeah, I believe it will work a treat especially if you do a partial mash. You can use the base stout like home brand and add what ever you like for added flavours. Sounds like great idea, I think I will do that on my next video. Cheers for the idea.
Good work with the kit, only found your channel in the last few months and really enjoying your videos, working my way through your older videos. Looking forward to see the coopers taste test. I recently started my own home brew channel would appreciate any feedback if you get chance to check it out. Cheers 🍻
Love seeing more more brewers out there doing their stuff. I had a look at your channel it looks great, well done, only one thing is see if you can raise your camera up so you are not looking down when talking to the camera. I have subscribed. Looking forward to seeing more. Cheers
I love watching people brew there stuff also, it’s a great community we have here on UA-cam. I will raise camera a little for the next video. Looking to upgrade my camera soon at the minute using the go pro hero 8. Thanks for the sub mate really appreciate that. Cheers 🍻
Mind that step mate, was pissing myself laughing 😆🤣, you are a legend for not editing that out, nice video mate 🍻🍻
Thanks Gavin, I was hoping people got a laugh out of it.😀😀👍
Thanks for the Trip, I was in stitches! So funny when it's not you and there's no injuries...🤣
Glad you enjoyed it
