Kveik is the path to go.I have harvested yeastcake and reused many times since i first pitched dry Voss, in march 2020.Never bought any yeast since.Still get 80% attenuation.
Love your low cost approach and how inquisitive you are. Keep it going bud ! Would love you to see try some noble German hops like Tettnanger, Hallertau and Hersbrucker, they are my favorites.
Happy Brew Year! I have found using Nottingham I get a slightly fruitier profile the second time around. Works wonderful for my bitters. US-05 is the Chico strain (Sierra Nevada brewing in Northern California) the yeast has a very adaptive quality to it and mutates quickly due to subtle changes in it's environment. I challenge you to do this again but try another yeast. I will try to harvest Imperial liquid yeast 2 to 3 times since it is 12 dollars here in the US (I think that's 15 or 16 Australian?). I can get a whole pound of hops for what they charge for yeast so I try to stretch that a little.
@@parrey1985 yes, I have subbed - would love a walkthrough of your all grain setup, really interested in the heating element in the large plastic bucket to do the mash and boil. Ive not made the jump to lol grain brewing, I’ve done a lot of extract brewing, and am now fortunate enough to be able to afford fresh wort kits - working 10 mins from a couple of well known Melbourne home brew shops helps as I don’t to freight fresh wort. The quality jump from extract to fresh wort is appreciable, which makes me think about all grain - but the setup always seems complex or expensive. Looking forward to the next vid in Feb!
@@jonoleslie trust me, move to all grain, its so much better. As for my set up, it's a very normal looking boiler now, my "death bucket" sprung 3 leaks last week at the spigot, thermowell, and element. Having said that, the plastic boiler was $100, and I got a year out of it.

I came for the washed yeast but staying for the bucket boil!
death bucket, kicked the bucket. got a new boiler, will see the death bucket for a few more videos
@@parrey1985never seen a “kettle” like that! Cool thinking even if it didn’t work out
Just sparge with cold water works the same as 75 degree water.
Could be a future experiment
@@parrey1985
ask Greg at Currajong …Home brew warehouse 🍺
Filtered water vs tap water
Kegs vs bottles
Sugar vs dextrose
Keg vs bottle, might of just been finished in editing. But it also might be a match 1st thing.
But thanks for the ideas
@@parrey1985 controlled ferment vs shed ferment, but this might have to be done in winter in Townsville 😉
@@colwk even winter in Townsville is probably to hot.
Winter in nice here
💪😜🤙🍺🍻🍺🍻
