The videos are really informative and love the customised all grain kits. Just enjoying my recent Vienna Lager AG kit from GEB. If only I could find a birra moretti recipe I’d be ordering another grain kit!
I sympathise with your brewing journey - all the way here in Australia. The Fermenter temperature control unit is something new. It's always a challenge controlling the fermenter temperature.
Every now and again a video pops up on your youtube feed that you relate to 100%, All the gear 100% the same all bought off GeterBrewed love the brewster 40 and the Ferminator perfect for Ireland, exact same problem brewing crazy beers and having to try upsell them to your friends. Guess it's time for a pilsner. Can this recipe be got in kit form from the Site. I could just pause the video i suppose ;) Loved this video...
@@DillonOsborne 😅😅 my second ever brew was named Armpit as i had a leak in the fementer and i was sanitized to the armpit to fix the leak, was ready to dump the brew but ended up being one of the best brews ever
@@stephenbradley7842 😂😂😂😂 I love that. At least it worked out. We made one called “too much in a day IPA” because we over committed and underestimated what was involved haha but someone we pulled it round to something not that shit 😂😂
hey! good video!!! can i ask you how many bars that fermenter can hold? i have a fermenter that can hold up to 0.3 Bars but i dont know if thats enought for carbonating my beer.
I can't get over the fact he did that. He stressed he would follow the instructions exactly, then immediately added 1/3 more water, it was the first line in the instructions 😂.
OMG I've just seen this comment PMSL totally ignored my own advice immediately lol I didn't even register that at the time, that explains a lot of rat bigger picture of sketchy brews. In my defence though... this one turned out so good and I drank every bottle of it.
Really cool way to make a presentation! I have the ingredients and equipment for MY first sitting right on my kitchen counter as I write. And for about 2 hours before bed I'm going to prepare it and then stick it in the cellar. But... Why do you guys almost sound American???even though your not?? My uncle's gf is Irish. She's been in the states (NJ) for decades but her accent is WAY thicker than any of yours. I really had to do a double take. I was like are these guys Americans...or Irish or Cornish or Welsh, New Zealanders or what?? I have a huge chunk of Manx DNA and my Manx family's most recent arrival was in the 1920's. We have a tendency to still throw a little lilt into our conversations almost instinctively. Anyway, thanks for the great tutorial. I really like how you all chose to use a newbie to make other newbies identify. Brilliant!
Play "Nadia's Theme " while reading my comment. Got 5 beers brewed. Yesterday was my second in my All Rounder, pressure fermentation. A Golden Hoppy Ale with Citra and Sabro Hops. Smelled amazing. Go to check the fermenter last night, it's wet underneath. #@%$... is it cracked? Lost over a gallon...oh...oh...I put the spunding valve on the liquid line with the float...amazing how that 12 PSI pushes your brew up and out that valve. At least my pantry smells amazing.
Interesting video. As this is a lager there is normally a diacetyl rest included towards the end of fermentation. Does brewing under pressure mean you didn't have to include it?
Has the color of the NEIPA you made darkened? NEIPAs are terribly susceptible to becoming lightstruck/skunked/oxydized - I use oxygen scavenging caps when I do one of those. Light is also a no-no and you've got that lovely window. Looks like a cracking beer you made...Cheers!
I would of just done the standard fermentation to make that beer , I don’t know why you went with a pressure vat for fermentation, if because of carbonation and sugars it still would have been a great beer with normal fermentation and carbonation anyway , this looks like to much trouble for my liking but it’s your beer , ps would of liked to see your wife’s input on your beer , hope she liked it , great job despite some hick ups , have you tried open fermentation , I’m doing this for the first time open fermentation fingers crossed . 👍
@@thejadedenthusiast724 Ya boet, born in JoBerg, grew up in Cape Town, just have a twangy part northern Irish accent now. Most people guess Aus or Canada lol
Thanks for the tips on brewing our own lager! Tommy and I always talk about making our own brew for our show, by we (my brotha Tommy) is a lazy POS. Wicked video though, mate! Gotta get you on a beer show sometime. Cheers!
I have exactly same equipment, but with kegs and co2, 4 ferminators and fermzillas :)) ps dont buy inner temperature stick for fermzillas - they are all need to be glued after some time. And i cant add pressurized beer to bottles course there is too much foam and you can add only half bottle so i use kegs :)) i have about 30 brewings, ales were all awesome, but lager is not great at all. I even waited for month for it to become beter in keg, but not very good till now :)) and one ale sucks too - that i made now and tasted today, with mulberry, i suppose i mistaken with alphaacids % and it smells not bad but nothing special too :)) rest ales were awesome. Highly recommend to all people to brew ales, they are better but you need to drink it kind of 5-10 days when its ready. Lagers are seems to be hard and useless to do
i can't imagine trying to get norn iron ppl to pay 6 quid for a DIPA lol. my aul boy is impressed by how cheap i can make a lager though (i don't mention the price of all the gear..)
When low temperature mashing is used beer tends to overly dry and thin during fermentation and conditioning. To counteract the affect, a step is used that causes dextrinization and gelatinization to occur, or another higher temperature rest around 68 to 72 can be used, which produces more sweet tasting, nonfermenting types of sugar, and less glucose. At 63, rest mash for 30 minutes, any longer, and Beta denatures, but Alpha is still active. Increase mash temperature to 68 within 10 minutes with boiling water, and rest the mash for 20 minutes. Then, increase mash temperature to 70, or 72 with boiling water, and rest the mash for 10 minutes. Test for starch, no starch, sparge. The higher temperatures, and rest periods can vary to produce different levels of sweetness in the final product. The higher the rest temperature, the quicker Alpha denatures, and sweeter tasting, and lower ABV beer is produced. Pseudo, ale and lager are produced with the step mash method and under modified, low protein, malt. Crisp German Pils is under modified to high modified, and low protein to high protein, malt, depending on the bag of malt. Crisp produces low protein Marris Otter. Their Marris malt contains more sugar than their German Pils malt, but the Marris Malt's diastatic power is on the low side. The malt is high modified to over modified making it great distillers malt. When the home brew was made, the richest starch in malt, called amylopectin, which provides body and mouthfeel in ale and lager was thrown away with the spent mash, paid for. The rest temperature wasn't high enough to burst the starch, where the starch enters into the mash liquid, before Alpha denatures, and that is why the starch was thrown away. Amylopectin makes up the tips of malt, it is hard, heat resistant, complex starch that contains limit dextrin, and pectin, which are the ingredients that provides body and mouthfeel in ale and lager. In home made beer, body and mouthfeel are provided by starch carry over, Beta Glucan, and protein sludge. The finest ales and lagers are produced from dextrinous extract, not from extract that contains mainly glucose, sweet tasting types of sugar, and goop. To take advantage of amylopectin, and to produce stabile, balanced, extract, the decoction brewing method is used, where mash is boiled a few times. Under high heat amylopectin rapidly opens up and enters into the mash liquid. When the boiling mash is added back into the main mash, Alpha liquefies the amylopectin, and dextrinization, and gelatinization occurs. STAY PARCHED. STAY EXTREMELY PARCHED.
Dont try to make lagers at youre first brewings, guys. First of all all lagers sucks, even best from shop, in comparison with fresh ales. And second its complicated, longterm and totally useless for home brewing :)) ales rules, make ales, ales, and more ales
hahahaha fair point on the Ales argument. In my defence... I have brewed a lot of other beers from stout, pales, hoppy IPAs but this was just my first time trying an actual lager and to date has been my most successful home brew beer. that being said... it took ages haha
Nice to hear someone talking about their mistakes
It's the only way you learn
We need more videos with Dylan - the guys a legend!
Yeah seems like a good chap 😊

Really interesting to see the warehouse. I'm pretty sure it was Chris packed my last order.
Well done mate. Looks awesome. 🤙🍻🇦🇺
Just ordered myself a few kits to get going thanks to this video
Great vid, anyone who is informative, open and puts a smile on my face gets a subscribe, cheers bud
thanks dude I had fun making this one :)
good video

"Don't change anything! Hm... This can't be right! I will go with 20 liters instead of 15 like the instruction says..." 😹

17:33 That looks like one of the less reliable spunding valves. The Doutight Blowtie ones (red with yellow adjuster) are more reliable.
We've found it to be very reliable as long as all joints and seals are securely in place
Great video 👍
Thankyou
Fantastic video!!! Can you put a link to your fermentation chamber? I would like to check it out!
Yes no problem check it out here : www.geterbrewed.com/ferminator-basic/
Good job mate! that’s what it’s all about with home brewing all mistakes happen great job pal thanks I would like to make a beer lager……

If you have option to transfer under pressure you can help eliminate the issue your having with oxidising

Hi. Unfortunately not.
not only does it get you drunk, but it also sanitizes your insides at the same time..

The commercial craft beer scene here is still very juvenile but is starting to get good traction , homebrewing on the other hand is really booming
your accent is very interesting
Dillon is originally from South Africa but has lived with us here in Ireland for enough time for the accent to pick up a little point of difference

you don't need to sanitize your hygrometer.
aw stickers ?!?
Hmmm.......50+ degrees and a dry yeast? Real lager?
That needs at least 2 weeks to ferment with a cold crash
