18:20 If you have one of those 5 or 7 in 1 multi tools, you can place it under the carbonation caps and give it a gentle lever. Pops straight up and a little kinder on the cap stems. Cheers. Doing the dry hop addition on this one tomorrow...can't wait.
If you put the spunding valve on an empty sanitised keg you can purge the keg of oxygen from your ferment saving gas. Link the fermenter gas out post to the keg beer post, spunding valve on the keg gas post. Makes it a little cheaper. 👍👍
My worry is when you reduce the pressure in the fermenter the beer will foam up and mix all the sediment back through. I have experienced this before and found that pressurising my keg first stops this. What do you recon?
@@SimpleHomeBrew if you put the spunding valve on the keg set at 10psi connected to the fermenter for the first 4 days of active ferment that should purge all oxygen from the keg, then disconnect and place spunding valve back on fermenter. I've had success doing this and with both keg and fermenter sitting around 10psi it transfers without foaming up if you really slowly let the pressure off while transfering
I brewed an AG Lazy Summer Session IPA a while back and one addition was 60g Mosaic and 120g El Dorado, turned out like drinking fruit tingles. Left it in the keg for 3 weeks, tried again, same thing. I couldn’t drink it so I’ve stopped using Mosaic ( I suspected Mosaic because I’ve used El Dorado before no problems ) only because my tastes don’t really like it. But your Duece Bigalow looked really nice mate, big hopped beers can get messy & cloudy, did you Cold Crash it before kegging? Well done though, enjoyed the video, cheers 🍻🍻
First, where do I start? Love the thumbnail as it was original and different, love the dusting for the malt pipe as I'd never heard that one but it makes sense...wish I could compare it to the water trick, and yes that is a great shirt, especially for a home brewing channel. New England Hazy is what it looks like you made and all the fruit sounded great until you said "Rock Melon" which I had to look up as we call that Cantaloupe here in the U.S. and it is one of the few fruits I actually hate the taste and smell of but I suspect it would be bad with the Mango, Apple, Pineapple and I suspect some other fruits like possibly Peach or other stone fruits. Great Job! Sadly some of our hazy IPAs taste like Orange Juice which is gross to me but the ones that come out like Grapefruit juice are amazing and dangerous as I like Grapefruit a lot.
Thanks for taking a look at this one, I found as the beer aged it became more tame and lost the citrus smack that kind of does taste like orange juice. I have a tasting video on this on coming in a couple of weeks.
Great Brewing Grandad From Kid Elijah.

I brewed this very kit in October. It was a cracker!
I t is very good I love every drop.
Once a brewer told me: "If you can lean, you can clean!" I second the "clean as you go" idea. And don't start drinking before your hops are boiling.
Great bit of advice I must say. Thank you
