Hey brother. Asking advice .I'm attempting to do this at home . 2 L bottle. I'm going to tell you my formula you're going to tell me if it's going to work .please😊 i believe it's going to be fine but you seem to be a pro. And I love the conntent.I'll be subscribing. Great stuff 👏..
Leutra is no joke! I be made brews in my garage using it, and around 90F in there during the day. I have seen fermentations finish in just over 24 hours. And since they are happy at that temperature, no off flavors. Could be why the Leutra batch tastes tue way it does. It also is known to enhance fruit flavors.
New to brewing! My question just to make sure I’m on the same page you only poured half the bottle of water into the kettle to heat and melt the sugars right? Is using RO water okay even if only half is boiled?
Hi, yes I only heated up about half the jug of RO water. Just enough to melt the sugars. I use RO since I know that it should be clean and free of bacteria. Also it's harder to make a very clear seltzer when using tap water. Cheers
I have been strictly drinking seltzer's lately, I am definitely going to be trying to homebrew some! Is there any way to know what the calorie count is?
Most of the Cal will come from the alcohol itself. I looked at some Cal calculators online and it seems like there would be around 125 calories per 355 ml. Roughly ten calories will be from carbs and the rest is from alcohol.
Hi, great video. I've never used Leutra, but I'll give it a try for home brew seltzer. Question...is it possible to just add the flavouring to the keg?
They should still turn out fine. Just keep in mind that there will be sediment in each bottle so pour them slowly if you want the seltzer to be clear in your glass. Or just use an opaque glass and rdwhahb :P
All right so I gonna go with a cup and a quarter of sugar .white sugar .I thinkva teaspoon of champagne yeast.? I'm going to put it in my Sous vide at 72f .I'm going to go 10 to 12 days I'm looking for about you know 16 to 18% I'll flip it in burp it everyday. I'm thinking I should go about 10 to 13 days? 2 liter bottle.
@@graintoglass right on brother. I'm using the sous vide as temperature maintenance . I'm using 2 litter bottles as the actual vessels. They're sitting in the sous vide at 72f covered with a towel to keep any light out. It's working out pretty good. They're foamy and burpable Every morning. I'm going 12 to 14 days. I'll let you know how it works out. So far so good. Thanks for responding 😀. The science of it is fascinating.
You would mix roughly 2.25 liters of vodka with 15.75 liters of water and then add in your flavoring and carbonate it. This would give you roughly 18 liters of seltzer at %5 abv. Cheers

Ya the Lutra batch fermented much faster than the MJ. Cheers
😊
Perfect timing i was about to start a batch of seltzer next week
Let us know how it turns out. Cheers!
Great video man. Greetings from Bangkok.
Thanks and cheers!

Would love to see how the vodka would compare
Yes I do as well. Ran out of time but will revisit this at some point. Cheers
Just another reason for a mini 360 regulator and Sodastream tank. Carbonate at a different psi without issue.
Good call!
Inline regulators .. easier
THANK YOU
Great video, what temperature did you ferment Lutra at ?
Thanks, this one was fairly low around 25C / 77F
I couldn’t catch it, did you clarify it with bio fine or similar product or is that oh-natural?
I can't remember but I would have either used kieselsol/chitosan before kegging or biofine in the keg. Cheers

@@graintoglass this is amazing!!! So if I come to the shop and just tell you what I want, you guys can tell me exactly what I need AND how to do it?!
@@220Maximus we should be able to yes. You can also use the contact form on our website to ask us any questions you may have. Cheers
Hi, great video. I've never used Leutra, but I'll give it a try for home brew seltzer. Question...is it possible to just add the flavouring to the keg?
Yes you can add flavoring to the keg. I kegged it unflavored just so i could test many flavors off of the same batch. Cheers
would you stay away from bottle conditioning seltzers?
They should still turn out fine. Just keep in mind that there will be sediment in each bottle so pour them slowly if you want the seltzer to be clear in your glass. Or just use an opaque glass and rdwhahb :P
So when did you add the vodka?
I forgot to make the vodka/water keg and didn't realize until we were getting ready to shoot the tasting. We'll have to do a follow up video. Cheers
when my kegs are empty, I'm filling one with this
Cheers!
just use smirnoff its 50% ABV so the math is easier lol!

That should work but I've never heard of or tried fermenting using sous vide. Just make sure it's properly cleaned and sanitized I guess :P Cheers

How would you do a seltzer by combining Vodka and carbonated water on a keg? What would the process for this seltzer look like?
You would mix roughly 2.25 liters of vodka with 15.75 liters of water and then add in your flavoring and carbonate it. This would give you roughly 18 liters of seltzer at %5 abv. Cheers
