Jasper, Thanks so much for all of the Brewery Life videos!! I have been brewing commercially on a 2BBL nano system since 2015 (450 batches). We expanded and installed a 10BBL steam system and should begin operations in about 2 weeks. Your videos have helped tremendously!! Cheers!!
A very good video, and you explain the math very simply and VERY well. While it may not be the focus of your videos, would it be possible to do some vids on the business side of the brewery? Inventory, purchasing, sales, accounts receivable (collections), deliveries, etc. These are the hugely neglected items that make or break a business, and are vital in creating one.
You're the man Jasper! I've watched all your videos during the past 2 weeks and have learned a ton. Hopefully you can keep sharing all of this great info. Appreciate it! If you're ever down in Puerto Rico visit La Esquinita Beer Garden, beers are on me. Cheers!
Great video, don't worry, you're doing a fine job of explaining how to do the calculations. My only input is one of opinion: I typically pitch more yeast than you mentioned 1.5-2 million cells/ml/*P for ale yeast and 4-10 million cells/ml/*P for lager yeast. But I like clean ferments, cheers!
Nice! Definitly the most important thing is to stay consistent for a consistent flavor profile. Every yeast stain can act different and there are millions of variables. Cheers man, thaxs for all your comments!
Awesome video Jasper, thank you very much. Can you make a video how do you monitor fermentation profile like day by day yeast cell count during fermentation, gravity drops curve with time, free raise, diacetyl rest, healthy fermentation sign etc etc etc. Thanks
Hey Jasper! I’m enjoying the videos and feel they will be of great help. I have a pub system from PSS. I need help on cleaning the system after brew day. Particularly the HEX. Could you do a video for us new to the pro system?
Hey Eric, Man I know that feeling.. kettle and HX cleaning at the end of brew days is like a huge mystery. A few tips that helped me, Make sure to push hot water behind the beer at end of KO. This will get you more volume in FV and make sure beer/hot break just doesnt sit in the HX. Also use hot caustic with and oxidizer running backwards through HX at 1.5x speed of KO. Throttle the out going valve around the HX to flex and build pressure in the HX during caustic run. This helped me, let us know if it helps you too. Cheers
Great video! I’ve been wanting to do continual top crop at home but have never wanted to take the risk of guesstimating the cell density in the slurry. Do you think 750M cells/g is a “safe” estimate for cell density in top crop? If so, a 15 gallon batch (16.5 FV volume) of 1.060 wort at 1M/ml/P would require 1183 grams (or 2.6 lb) of slurry? Are my assumptions fairly accurate for this? Thank you.
No, you need to do a cell count to find your density. It can vary from 100M up to over 1000M. Always count your yeast and dont guess. The purpose of this video is to be precise on your pitches and not estimate to make the best beer you can. Hope that makes sense, best of luck.
Everything the same and just change bbl size. 14.7lbs. But in real life you need to do a hemocytometer count to find your density, dont use this as a general density...
I like to brew four batches in a row. Make a starter for the first then repitch fresh slurry from a newly emptied fermenter. Also is nice to taste the fresh beer sample to see if it's infected, nothing like infecting another batch. =)
ive always eyeballed everything ... 5lb of slurry to a barrel of good healthy yeast ?? well i guess thats good enough for amateurs ??? besides my maths is shocking id be bound to get the calculation wrong
I have no idea what this guy is talking about. This video is definitely not full of advertising or ads at all that I can see. Keep up the good work Jasper!
Do not miss understood my comment there are a very good videos and i like it and they help me a lot, and i will keep following and supporting Jasper, but i do not like the adds and advertising every 3 minutos in the videos... am i the only that the advertising is stoping the jasper videos? It can be may be my access...
You don’t have to be the most eloquent speaker to provide helpful information. Thanks for another awesome video. Keep them coming!!
Truth. Appreciate it, cheers!

So cool to hear! Congrats on the expansion and thanks for sharing your success story, cheers!

Thanks for the comment, cheers!
I've been having so much trouble trying to figure out this exact problem of how MUCH yeast to pitch! Thanks a ton Jasper for breaking it down for us!
I remember having the same problem. Glad it helped, thanks for the comment, cheers!
You're the man Jasper! I've watched all your videos during the past 2 weeks and have learned a ton. Hopefully you can keep sharing all of this great info. Appreciate it! If you're ever down in Puerto Rico visit La Esquinita Beer Garden, beers are on me. Cheers!
I'll be there! someday...cheers!
Awesome, thank you!
I would suggest you make a video explaining about the specs sheets from Malts, Hops and Yeasts. Cheers!
Thanks for the suggestion I talk about some malt specs. in my malt video check it out.
Your help is imense. Thank you Jasper
Great video. Super helpful. Thankyou

Loving all the new content Jasper. Can you do a passivation video?
Awesome to hear, thanks for the encouragement! I can probably talk about SS and Passivation for a few mins..thanks for the suggestion.
excellent, thanks
Great video, very useful!
Cheers Bogdan, im glad you found it useful!

@@brewerylife3596 I second Eric, i will love to see a Brewhouse (including heat exchanger-wort chiller) cleaning video :)
cheers
A great video. Thank Jasper. Just one question, where do you get the slurry density figure from?
Can you make a wort chiller cleanint and maintance video?
Thanks for the suggestion!
Could you explain how to scale recipe from homebrew to commercial?
Thanks for the suggestion, cheers!
Great video!

Using this example, would you be able to get 49 lbs out of 1 cone in a 10 bbl fermenter?
Yes, but alot of things can affect this. One being non flocc Yeast.
By chance can you show for a 3 bbl system, so that I can check my math? 🙏
Everything the same and just change bbl size. 14.7lbs. But in real life you need to do a hemocytometer count to find your density, dont use this as a general density...
About how many generations do you get out of a pitch before you order new?
8 is a good goal, cheers
I like to brew four batches in a row. Make a starter for the first then repitch fresh slurry from a newly emptied fermenter. Also is nice to taste the fresh beer sample to see if it's infected, nothing like infecting another batch. =)
Could this be applied to cider as well?
I have no idea what pitching rates for cider should be, so I'd be hesitant. Thanks for watching.
you video look interesting. may be can have personally talk?
ive always eyeballed everything ... 5lb of slurry to a barrel of good healthy yeast ?? well i guess thats good enough for amateurs ???
besides my maths is shocking
id be bound to get the calculation wrong
Ya that'll ferment. Cheers
There is to much advertising in your videos, im starting to not like it
A little love goes a long ways

I have them with that fucking cockroach Tai Lopez. Doesn't make me hate on the J Man though! Brewery Life 4lyfe. @@luisarreola6513
