- We're super excited to announce that we've teamed up with Grainfather to make some amazing homebrew content and show you how to build and run the ultimate home brewery. Unfortunately, things didn't go to plan - which is why we ended up building the ultimate MOBILE brewery instead! Join us on the build as we prepare to collaborate with Wild Card Brewery.

RhôOoh ! That's exciting ! Looking forward to the next ep
It was your collaboration with CBC that introduced me to them in the first place and inspired me to start my own home brewing journey. It’s been about a year and a half and I’m now about two dozen batches in! Absolutely love both of your channels and look forward to seeing you if you ever find yourself in down in Australia! Cheers!
On second thought, a plywood brewery on wheels does sound like something Alex would do...
Yo how's your leg brother? So cool to see you here though
Cheers Alex! Maybe one day we'll wheel it down the boulevards of Paris and brew with you x
This is amazing to hear Wray! What kind of stuff are you brewing?
It's like watching Line of Duty - you just can't wait for the next episode. Brilliant
Haha. Are you also screaming at the TV?

Brad really putting his design skills to the test with that drawing of the pallet! Awesome video, looking forward to the rest.
Brilliant really looking forward to this ... And the way you carried off sporting those white wellies at the end....truly awesome 🤣
They were about 4 sizes too big so I am glad you think we rocked them.
May I suggest some wood blocking under the osb around the perimeter of those openings to reinforce the edges in case anyone has to step up onto the platform, otherwise amazing job boys this “mobile” brewery may just be the next big wave in craft beer 👍🏻🍻
You could well be right! We have some further modifications to make to it so will consider that too!
Lol! Who knew you two were so creative. 🙂
Haha not sure we did!
Made me chuckle! So cool. I almost want to do this in my little brewery. Except...I don't need to. Looking forward to ripping off, er I mean emulating your inaugural brew!
This was nice, looking forward to the next episode.
Fantastic!
Being from Colorado I was really happy to hear the "Mountain Style IPA" has started to get some traction.
Awesome! Hope we do it justice.
Great video guys, super entertaining.
Brewing beer and making stuff with pallets. Couldn’t ask for much more in a video (maybe pizza if I’m being really needy)!
Much pizza was consumed in (or rather after) the making of this video.
Love it!
now i know what Brad does lol cool
This is great! You need advances in drone technology so you can fly your brewery around the country.
Shoulda put wings not wheels on!
@@TheCraftBeerChannel Where should we can have a diploma degree in Beer and alcohol
Congrats guys! Been a fan since the early days and seeing the journey you guys have gone on (so far!) has been amazing.
Thanks so much!
As a grainfather owner and big fan of this channel I absolutely loved this! Very excited for the videos to follow
What about your plumbing and electricals? Where's your grain mill? Oh! and put a trolly handle on the pallets to make it easier to drag. as well as a bullbar on the back to make it easier to push.
Instead of braking back, try putting on removable push bar....
I really like this idea guys!!
Brilliant! Looking forward to further episodes!
Can't get enough homebrew content so bring it on!
Brewtools owners will say Nay! Not me though, with my Speidel braumeister!
I absolutely cannot wait to see how this progresses as a series. I discovered you guys when researching the start of my homebrewing journey last year, so for you to bring a real focus onto it is great. Thankyou for helping make homebrewing accessible and unpretentious. Love and beer.
Thanks Andy- hope to do you proud!
Very excited for this series! The high quality of your videos in combination with the visits to all these breweries and home(mobile) brewing!? Can't wait for the next video!
It is all getting bigger and bigger from here!
Love it! Great new idea to produce quality content, and beer… hopefully. Looking forward to the next episode.
What a great series! Can't wait to see how this goes. This is a brilliant idea :D
Excellent video - can't wait for the next part.
This is gonna be epic! Looking forward to more.
Very excited for the new homebrewing content, great work!!
Brilliant work fellas, looks fantastic!
So much fun on the cards, and eagerly anticipating the colab recipe writing with these amazing breweries for the home brew scale! Love how when Jonny goes to speak to Wildcard brewery his glass goes from empty to 3/4 finished 🤭😂
I...topped up?
Brad is a great sport, he topped it up to make Jonny happy.
Finally manning up the home brew game! Can’t wait 🤙
Incredibly exciting partnership and some really inventive work guys. Pushing things forward constantly. Would love a taste of that Mountain IPA.
I was so happy for Jonny's 'new 'house' brewery and then I was disappointed, and then I saw the result, which made me very excited. This video was a rollercoaster.
Haha thanks! More rollercoaster house drama to come I imagine.
That looks like a lot of fun!
Looks good, guys. Can´t wait for the brewday :)
Grainfather is without a doubt the best homebrew system. Maybe make a box for the sparge water heater to sit on.
Love it can't wait for next video
That's the plan! There will be another build for that as we have a cool idea for it.
This is so fun, guys. This is going to be great!
Awesome to get more high quality homebrewing content from you! I recently upgraded to the Grainfather G30 after brewing 4 years with a kettle and bags so it'll be fun to see you use this setup.
Awesome, how's it been? We have never looked back since we upgraded!
@@TheCraftBeerChannel It's great! Easier to get consistent results when brewing the same recipes, and the cleaning is a breeze compared to before.
Please find David Heath (Homebrew Legend) - his work with The Grainfather, among endless other kit, is incredible. He’s got loads to share!
He's been a great resource over the years!
This is so EPIC!
One fermentor? That'll never do! You should move the hot side gear to a new, 1/2 pallet hot side cart, and add another 2 fermentors and turn the existing cart into a cold side cart. Ha ha, just kidding... Kind-of... Cheers guys, love the channel (and the podcasts) and have learned tons from all the content you produce.
Thanks Kyle - as the series goes on we'll be growing our kit. Just gotta get that house and install it all!
This is so exciting
LIKE A GLOVE
Alllllllllllrighty then
You guys are moving on up! This should be a fantastic set of videos. I am going to be extending my house sometime soonish. I'll make sure it's a Grainfather that gets installed next to the cider press
You have a cider press?! I want one next to our grainfather!
Can’t wait for this. All respect to your previous home brew equipment and content ( which I loved ) but this should be different level running with the full GF kit.
Great vid! BAFTAs all round for that acting at the beginning 😂 really looking forward to seeing how this turns out. You guys have been a big inspiration for me to start homebrewing so I’m happy to see there’ll be more vids on the subject!
Thanks Billy! Glad the acting worked. It was one of those moments where you wish the cameras could have caught the real thing. I swore a lot more to my solicitor.
This is great stuff. I’m looking forward to this. I love my GF (have the G70 now) and I’m always looking for new content. When you’re looking to upgrade, exchange the sparge water heater for a G70 and then you have the option to make a bigger batch and use either GF to heat sparge water. Thank you. Get brewing 👍
great tip!
Love your videos guys , this adventure one is like "Top Gear" for beer maybe "Top Beer" ? Cant wait for episode two! 👌
Haha thanks. Not sure the BBC would let us on though.
Yes boys!!! Remember to share the recipe in the next video so we can join along with you 👌 That five points best was banging on the beer engine 🤤
100% will do! Tweaking it right now to be ready!
@@TheCraftBeerChannel Nice one! Next you'll need to work out your dispense setup 😜
Impressive stuff! When designing your recipes (when it comes to hop additions at least) do you aim for a specific IBU and BU:GU ratio and go from there?
Great question! We tend to ignore BU:GU as there are so many extra variables so just aim for ibu by style then take the actual and perceived sweetness into account more subjectively.
Was really expecting a full meltdown during the dramatised reconstruction 😂
Shoulda gone full Christian Bale.
Hey if you ain't moving, I'll be in the S.Arms next week & maybe even be Wildcard.
That said brilliant, FUN, witty video. Nice one👍
Rasko
God knows where I'll be next week.
@@TheCraftBeerChannel lolol a feeling we all know well.
hope you dont need to reset the safety cut out switch on the bottom of the grainfather :)
Lol. We can get to it still. Now we drilled a hole.
Guessing OSB was more expensive than entire grainfather eq. 😁
It was £25!
Now add an ebike motor and a couple of seats and you can brew on the go.
Oh my god yes.
How is the fermenter holding up to being moved on that thing? I imagine it has a super high centre of gravity and could use some extra support. Loved this video guys!
Haha it has survived...though moving it had one unexpected consequence as you'll see next week
How much was the glycol chiller, that had to be more than the entire set up?
They are around £800 so about 1/3 of the set up. The fact they can be used with up to 4 fermenters (and they don't have to be Grainfather conicals any more either) means if you're doing multiple batches it makes a lot of financial/energy sense over lots of fridges!
@@TheCraftBeerChannel thank you so much, I am going to have to drink a lot more beer to justify that expense. Right now I ferment in a keg which gets ice cool down which costs $2 for 20 pounds of ice and takes 45 minutes to bring to temp. The hole theme though is a great idea.
Nut, meet sledgehammer
I want one
But importantly what’s the “crispy boy” rating?
10 out of 5. One point knocked off because we haven't raised the HLT yet.
@@TheCraftBeerChannel I'd commented before i'd seen the stenciling, that gets a few extra points (you do however get docked more out of petty jealously for having the chiller). You might also need to raise the conical too if you've the dump valve. Its hard to get a sample jar under the bottom tap.
@@Ferrybobbins we used a tube to get better access
It’s a shame YT smashes down the quality on the premiere stuff
Ach yeah I know. Sorry about that
Great, but I can't help but feel the homebrew content is now less accessible as it's using £££ equipment. Would be nice to see the occasional apartment style homebrewing, perhaps even a comparison video
Fair point. We 100% have plans for some more basic homebrew videos, but we also felt this is a topic well covered all over UA-cam so wanted to make some aspirational and different content. That said, all our recipes are applicable to any kind of system, which the exception of the cold crashing at the end.
@@TheCraftBeerChannel That makes sense, thanks!
O No
O Yes
What kind of an English man uses the metric system!
But we DO use the metric system. Well, for everything except miles. And no one can explain why.
@@TheCraftBeerChannel Ierland has officially been using the metric system for about 30 years, everyone under about 25 years of age is completely lost when older people start talking in inches or miles, but almost everyone ues stones / ponds when referring to people and feet/inches for hight. It's crazy but when you're Island is stuck in between Imperial system country's is good to flexible 👍.
But Brad measured the big dimensions (i.e. pallet size) in inches... it just seemed like Canada to me where they measure outside dimensions in English units and inside dimensions in metric ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Whilst admirable, a video to bolt two pallets together and do a cut out of existing kit over 18m seems a little excessive. Homebrewers are creative by nature so we all rooting for ya and the concept sounds legit., I'm hoping that it's gets better
Don't forget the paint job.
@@TheCraftBeerChannel lol.... Of course...
