Good video. Ignore the snide comments below. I heard you apologize during the video for a trivial matter. You shouldn't have to apologize for doing good for other people. Keep up the good work.
From South Africa, and just started home brewing. Thanks for an informative, detailed and down to earth approach to Weiss beer brewing. Ignore negative criticism and personal attacks, if one does not like your contribution, then they should just ignore and move on.
Fantastic video, I'm a newbie, will be preparing my second batch next weekend, bottle my first batch yesterday, and tasted one non carbonated beer. It was interesting! I've found a very rewarding new hobby that I wish I'd learning decades ago!
Finally a noob guide for all grain brewing. Years ago when I first started ag there was very little on youtube that explained ag brewing. You explained every step in detail. Thanks for the video!
exceptionally good video. many vlogers and authors out there show off and overcomplicate when talking about all grain brewing. this video perfectly shows how easily it can be achieved. thank you!
@@MaltCast Thanks for sharing and putting in the effort to help others. Please don't be discouraged by any criticism or negative comments. I think you did a great job. I was a bit worried about a boil over a couple of times but you had it under control. Cheers.
Halfway though the video I was going to mention that you need to discuss sanitation because I've heard of someone ruining a $100 batch of mead by not sanitizing a spoon they used to taste test it. You did a good job of explaining it and showing us the products you used. Subscription well deserved.
Liked your video very much-Thanks! I have done some extract brewing 25 years ago, but wanted to get back into it now that all grain brewing ingredients are so readily available. Bought a book, but much of it made no sense until I watched this video. Now I might have to read the book again since I understand much of what i didn't before. Thanks again!
I brewed for years, gave it up when I ran out of room and time after a move. Pulled up something to listen/watch while cleaning as a time killer. Wanted to compliment your narrative skills and the overall video. This should be a solid primer for most new AG brewers.
been brewing for a few years now but have stuck with extract, now I am moving on up to all grain and I have been watching a ton of videos and reading up. I just want to let you know this is by far one of the best videos I have seen so far, definitely on par with John Palmers video with Northern Brewer but I would say yours is more Beginner friendly. Thank you for all your help.
I have to say, this was one of the best, most informative videos on brewing basics that I've watched. I am new to the concept of home brewing and look forward to starting my first batch soon. You covered things that should be mentioned in brewing videos that others haven't. Like the water to grain ratio. Very important, but no one else has mentioned it. Excellent video, Sir. You've earned yourself a subscriber!
Excellent video! I am on my 7th batch of home brew, 5th batch all grain but it's been over two years since my last batch and the refresher was great and this would also be an excellent video for someone who wants to get into all grain brewing and wants to see what it's all about.
Excellent video. Just what I was looking for as I am ready to start all-grain brewing. Good job keeping it simple and explaining everything well. Thank you!
Thanks, I've been brewing for some time and the hot break has caused me considerable grief, not just the mess the unknown loss of hop material. I can't wait to try your technique, thanks in advance
Great video. Thanks for keeping it simple. Contemplating moving from extract brewing to BIAB, but this video is good for when I go all grain. Thanks again.
It maybe 46 minutes long, but I did not get bored at all. You are a great presenter (calm, informative, friendly) and I really enjoyed the vid. I have just started brewing again (extract), and did feel pretty overwhelmed reading about this method, but really looking forward to getting myself to a place to do it. Love from over in Australia :) I also wish i could be trying that beer you have at the end there ;) Cheers!
Really interesting and useful video, thanks for sharing. I am an extract brewer currently but this makes me more confident about going all grain some time in the near future.
I been watching many videos of home brewing, and I belive yours is the best one, best explained and you make it look easy. Thanks, you win a subscriber. Cheers!
- as stated in the video, the smell of the grain mash, effort, method and fresh beautiful grain and hops ingredients make it so rewarding of process to learn, do and perfect. And it's beer chemistry! with ale as the outcome!
You did a very nice job on this video, I'm a brewer and learned some things from you great explanation of the little sciences of process. I'll be watching much more of your videos.... thanks again
Thanks! Perfect amount of detail for me. Some was review as you mentioned, but, it's also good to see how everything fits together. You get the complete story start to finish.
Great Job thank you for sharing the process. I am currently learning all I can about brewing beer and your tutorial was great. I hope to own a brew company.
I've only been all-grain home brewing for around 3 years, and what I've learned so far is covered in this video - a very good example. I would say there's a few points of worth suggesting (some may have been mentioned?) - Try smaller batches first off (half or quarter ingredients/volumes) - Brew in a bag (BIAB) method uses a thin 'mash bag' to contain the mash/grain allowing for one mash tun/boil pot in one, but beware, even though this allows less equipment, sparge/brew efficiency suffers.
Hi MaltCast!! Thanks for doing these fundamental brewing videos! As a soon to be new brewer trying to learn all he can as quickly as possible its great to be able to watch your videos :) Please keep doing these fundamental videos!
this video is awesome! for someone who's thinking of getting into beer brewing, you sir have convinced me to take the next step!! and for that I thank you! keep up the good work!!! ;)
Well presented and explained. I've yet to do any brewing, but I am gleaming a wealth of information. It's nice to see many that brew and discern what is valuable and what is frass.. (Gardeners KNOW what frass is) ;) thanks heaps! good job!
I find any and all food science (or really, science based activities of any creative sort - working on soapmaking right now 😊) super intriguing, so this was a very interesting video. I've just recently started getting more interested in beer so learning how it's homebrewed is super cool. You've made this look a lot easier than I thought it was from my small amount of reading. Seems to me all-grain is to extract as cold or hot process is to melt & pour. There's just a bit more control over the ingredients with all grain & CP / HP.
Don't do it! You'll be hammered after the first 5 minutes. Impossible to see the whole video if playing the game. But maybe better than some folks stuck on saying 'um' or 'you know' every third word. Very nice video. If this is aimed at the complete noob it would be better to refer to the grain as malt or malted grain. Going to the feed store and buying a sack of barley won't make beer without a ton of extra work. Thanks for sharing your brewing experience, MaltCast.
Could you post a video about your Theory on creating your own recipes, how to know what grains, hops, type of yeast, etc, to put together the recipe. How do you know what goes good together, etc.
- remember to take original gravity reading OG before pitching yeast - trial run! the first 4-5 all-grains are supposed to be an adventure - my first was for xmas, and although the body was thin ish the freshness, hops and alcohol were spot on! so rewarding!
Great video, it's refreshing to hear (and see) all the details and their explanations given at each stage of the process. Its extremely helpful for aspiring home brewers (myself included) looking at all-grain and/or malt extract brewing for the first time. I'd love to see the follow up video, has that been put up? Also, and i'm sure it's echoing other comments, how do you come up with your recipes? Do you have any advise on that, I'm sure trail & error plays a big part but are there recommended ways to evaluate recipe options (ingredients, proportions, timings etc) before putting them to test (which can take quite sometime to produce results)?
Great complete how-to video. a bit long, but it is great to see other brewer's methods. I have a pretty long how-to video on my channel, using the brew-in-a-bag method. My video started at over an hour, I was able to cut it down to about a half hour though. Liked and Subscribed! Hope to see more of your videos in the future!
Pretty good, never saw that cooling method pipe inside hose, great idea will try as batches size up. Recommend sizing up yeast in separate cups to get even amounts in each pitch. Pot about 2 inches short for that batch size, but you managed it well... Thx.
The one thing that I didn't see was oxygenation of the wart for fermentation. The only part I think I skipped over was about sanitization. Aside from that it was fun to watch. Thanks for a very complete video.
I really enjoyed your video and thank you for taking the time putting it together. Brew day can be a little hectic due to multitasking, you seemed very poised and confident running the camera while sanitizing, watching your wort, cooling, and hydrating your yeast. There was only one thing I noticed you didn't mention but probably did in between scenes. What about oxidizing the wort before pitching the yeast?
Great question. You are right that I did forget to talk about aerating the wort prior to pitching. I figured that was a more advanced topic that might be a bit too much for a basic brewing type video. Thanks for mentioning it and I will try to cover this in a future video.
One of the best jobs explaining something (and reasonably complicated) on the internet! Thanks! Do you have a written receipe to accompany the video (e.g. with quantities, volumes, etc)
Thank you; great video. Can't wait for part 2! Very helpful, though all the equipment is daunting. Oh -- question: maybe you can discuss this in part 2 -- temperature for fermenting. I live in a cold climate and even my kitchen usually doesn't make it into the 60s in the winter. Is there an optimum temperature, and what happens if you don't meet it?
For those that don't have a hop filter, I have a few options. The strainer which he used, second is a hop bag (tied with a slip knot for use through the whole boil), 3rd before you drain into your chiller if you vigorously stir the un-ferminted beer till a vortex is created then allow to stand till the vortex dies off the majority of the hop material left will settle to the middle of the pot
I currently do partial extract brewing, but want to try all grain brewing. For your cooler mash tun, was that a DIY project or something that was purchased? Do you have any issues when draining and sparging where it doesn't drain through the copper cut slits and they become clogged?
This is the best all grain video I've watched so many thanks for producing it. I'm totally new to AG and tempted to give it a go but it's a big step up from beer kits both in expense in setting up and time needed. What is the point of the metal copper tube with slits in the mashtun? Why don't we add sugar to the wort (I can guess the answer but wondering why I have to add it to a kit)
So for my first brew I went and added the priming sugar during the boil. How will this affect the beer and how do I fix this. please respond quick I barely started the fermentation process...Thank you for your time and video.
I see nobody answers your question. How did the brew turn out? Adding the priming sugar to the boil before fermentation will not harm the beer. It will in fact raise the potential alcohol. I trust you found out and bought some more priming sugar for bottling?
Although you didn't specifically mention it, I'm assuming you are sanitizing your hands as well whenever you are touching equipment (e.g. removing the bung/airlock assembly to add yeast). Is this correct?
Good job on the video, thank you. Question: How much water are you using during sparging? Keep adding until you have your pre-boil volume even if there's water still in the mash?
Since I continuously sparge, I add water until I get the preboil volume I'm after. However, I try to gauge things so that I'm left with little or no water left in the mash tun. Once I get very close to my preboil, I stop adding and let the rest run out of the mash tun.
Fab walkthrough. About to attempt my first batch. Just one question. Im in the UK and its almost winter - so - after pitching yeast at about 70f (how) do I maintain this temp through the ferment? Cheers
Maybe something like a 1.040 blonde ale would have been a better choice for a basics video, but then again, you can always get a new spoon. What was the OG on this beer? I seem to have spaced-out a bit and missed it. Good video. Cheers!
Good video. Ignore the snide comments below. I heard you apologize during the video for a trivial matter. You shouldn't have to apologize for doing good for other people. Keep up the good work.

Thanks for the great video. You can read all the instructions you want but sometimes it is nice to just watch someone put it all into practice.

exceptionally good video. many vlogers and authors out there show off and overcomplicate when talking about all grain brewing. this video perfectly shows how easily it can be achieved. thank you!
Basically I just wanted to say thanks for actually making this video. It's actually very helpful for someone trying to get the basic idea, basically.
Actually, you're basically very welcome :)

Very very helpful. Most videos on homebrewing were very fast and they never went into the detail needed to really do this on your own.
It's a beautiful, ancient process. Excellent video. Thank you.

Great stuff man - appreciate the down to earth tutorial & showing us your built at home setup - save myself $2.5k on a braumeister
i had plenty time to watch brew videos verdicts out science is so special and wonderful, thanks bro learn new shit every day
Great tutorial. Can't wait to upgrade to all grain brewing!
excellent video I just started brewing and it cleared up a lot of stuff I was uncertain about
Great video.. we're about to try our first all grain brew and this was very helpful.
This was great! I especially liked the first 1/2, as it was a good explanation of sparging. I think I'll stick to extract brewing! 😊

Very informative and terrific video! Thank you for sharing.
Really like your video, and the drinking game is awesome to. Every time you say "basically" we take a drink.

This was awesome - thank you. “... the organism that brings us the nectar we love ...” 😂😂

where is the second installment of this video that you mentioned? Whats the URL
great video, good tips for first time all grain brewing. thanks
Very clear and informative! Thanks!
Basically an excellent video. Thank you very much, I'll be following your channel.
thanks that was a great video....do you use hop bags now at all ?
scott garvey No, but my kettle has a hop screen to filter them out when I drain.

hi, when will you be putting on the video on how to bottle the beer? cheers
This is the best all grain video I've watched so many thanks for producing it. I'm totally new to AG and tempted to give it a go but it's a big step up from beer kits both in expense in setting up and time needed.
What is the point of the metal copper tube with slits in the mashtun?
Why don't we add sugar to the wort (I can guess the answer but wondering why I have to add it to a kit)

Great video! How many Btu's is that stove?
60,000
Good job on the video, thank you. Question: How much water are you using during sparging? Keep adding until you have your pre-boil volume even if there's water still in the mash?
Since I continuously sparge, I add water until I get the preboil volume I'm after. However, I try to gauge things so that I'm left with little or no water left in the mash tun. Once I get very close to my preboil, I stop adding and let the rest run out of the mash tun.
Can I ask how much water you used in the strike water and how much you used in the sparge?
I noticed you are using a very basic heat exchanger to cool the wort quickly. Where I can find those?
Mine was a DIY project. We have a write up of it over at maltcast.wordpress.com/2012/10/06/diy-build-counterflow-wort-chiller/.
@12:05 You presented a chemistry answer to the reason behind the mash temp. What is that reason? I couldn't find one scouring the comments.
Great video! Nice flow. Any idea when PT.2 will be up?
part 1 is great, thanks a bunch.
Fab walkthrough. About to attempt my first batch. Just one question. Im in the UK and its almost winter - so - after pitching yeast at about 70f (how) do I maintain this temp through the ferment? Cheers
How come you didn't aerate the wort when pitching the yeast? Also what's the time frame for chilling your wort using that concentric hose chiller?
+MaltCast Are your grains already malted before you mash them?
How much bourbon did you add and how long did leave it in secondary fermentation before you bottled? Thanks
looking to get into whole grain brewing thanks for the insight
Maybe something like a 1.040 blonde ale would have been a better choice for a basics video, but then again, you can always get a new spoon. What was the OG on this beer? I seem to have spaced-out a bit and missed it. Good video. Cheers!
first of all, great video on the basics of brewing. but you mentioned a part 2 where you keg it.. is there any footage of that on here?
