10 bucks, plus the minimal cost of running the fridge for 20 odd litres?
Great value!
If it tastes mediocre, then wait until your third glass of fist-class brew, and you won't mind it at all.
Wonderful brew if you are having a gathering, as well.
If your guests complain, they are itching to be ejected!
The only time the statement "I homebrew to save money" is true
i use woolies raw sugar, makes it smoother, may try brown sugar soon
Great video. Very surprised that it came out at 1.000!
I'm glad this video popped up in my feed. Subbed. Please don't stop making videos.
I plan on making a follow up to this one
Great video thanks for sharing
I've got 2x wallies Larger cans in my fermenter as we speak almost ready 💪😜🤙
Bit of dex and light malt. Used 1/2 of an old yeast cake from my previous lager. Will be Cold crashing in the next few days. I must say that wallies Larger extract tastes pretty good aye! You could put it on pancakes haha!!!
New sub looking forward to more uploads Cobber
Brigalow ginger beer and cider hybrid, with rice malt as the fermentable, and tinned peaches for flavour
It’s now $11.50 and 1kg sugar is $2.50 😮😮
All of it was on sale at the time too.

Townsville, i was bloody born there 👍👍👍
Haven't seen that countdown (nz woolies) home brew kit in New Zealand yet. It will be even more twangy then coopers kits
Part of the sweet flavour might also have been brewing it at 26C. I'd try to keep it at 23C max and better at 20-22C, would probably taste cleaner. Also I used to add sugar right out of the pack like this, but found I had a lot less issues with odd flavours after I dissolved this sugar in water and would boil it for a while before adding to the fermenter. The sugar isn't sterile, there can be wild yeasts and such in there. I do appreciate that you followed the recipe so you'd get the same result as someone who would do this. Had a homebrew mate who used to run a 60L fermenter and he'd drop 3 of the cheapest kit tins in there instead of adding sugar.
All kit beer beers are twangy. Doesn't matter what u do. But I would never brew at 26 Celsius
This was the first, and probably only time I ever brewed at a temperature above 20°c, I just brewed in the middle of the recommended temperature range, I think the temperature range was recommended based on someone brewing with out a brew fridge.
As I said, I was following the recommended recipe on the can, I have another video where I go a little more cowboy.
@@Matowix that temperature was chosen based on the recommended temperature range printed on the can, this was the first time I had brewed at a temperature so hi too.
@@users-bibi50 no haven't tried it yet
On ya Johnny, I'm in willows qld. hot hot. I'm brewing Cooper's, I call it home boo boo, lol. I can only get better. Churs good vid.
Willos is pretty reliable for the woollies larger
I've done a heap of no name beers they mak a great base for a partial
You are a brave man PCH :). I reckon Kveik Lutra/voss would make this beer decent with like your said malt/dex mix and dry hop it.cheers mate
It was actually sweet.
But not good. It was okay.
I will be revisiting this one. I'll be going 2 cans of woollies lager, dry hoping, adding fruit, and using US05
@@parrey1985 I look forward to that vid mate
Making me a batch as I watch this haha
👍 Deeragun...... Sugar is best but for $10 i would rather a goon😂
Kit and Kilo! sounds like Craigtube
Ok thats an alright way to aerate. I beat the christ out of it with the brewspoon , once the foam builds up and you are dragging that down under the surface THATS how you get the air and liquid to truly mix , it has a certain sound when its happening right
TOWNSVILLE! Mate....i was bloody born there👍👍😊😊
I think good aeration is more important for wort that's been boiled.
But I also don't think there is such thing as to much aeration.
I've only been in Townsville for 2 years, it's not a bad place to live.
Nice one dude
Thanks mate
The homebrand beer kit is probably coopers and perhaps a little light but should be fine. The crystal sugar in the homebrand packet is still pure cane sugar but will take time to dissolve v a finer sugar like a brewers sugar or even castor sugar.
Woolworths closed here in the state decades ago.
7:20 LMFAO, mustn't be that great!! :) :) Legend
When you can make 23l of beer for under $10, all it really needs to do is got yourself drunk.
I think I used half to water my lawn
2 case's for 10 bucks , that's pretty good
Hi Johnny Top video if your trying to save a buck . Can you recommend a brew that is close to Great Northern Original Lager . Im just starting out and dont want to make a batch im not gunna drink , Cheers Larry
Not sure if it's any good, but Morgan's has an extract recipe
1 tin Morgan's Australian lager
1 bag Morgan's master malt beer enhancer.
12g priser of Ringwood. Steep for 10min
1 Morgan's premium lager yeast. Ferment between 11° & 19°c
Just wondering do you not rinse your fermenter or other equipment after sanitizing?
Don't fear the foam
Why do you guys brew like this without boiling, hops, steeping grains? In the US for small batches we use a partial mash technique.
This is a supermarket home brew. And the video was just simply following the recipe.
Mate!!!! Just stumbled across your video. I’m in the ville too. Where do you get your gear from?(apart from woolies 🤣
Mate!!!! Don't live in the ville anymore. But when starting out I got my extracts from Mayfairs tobacco and homebrew. Then when I switched to all grain I went to Townsville homebrew warehouse
@@parrey1985 young thing I was curious to ask you was how did you make the fermenter that you boil your water end. I noticed it’s a 30 L foodgrade bucket, but it seems like you’ve added the elements and temperature control in there and I was curious as to how you did that.
@Geoff Joyce I've heard some people call them a "death bucket", they are safe up to 180°c.
I got it from Townsville homebrew warehouse
If you brew it again try fermenting it at lager temps
As I said in the video, I was following their recipe. And being the beer that it is, I think the idea is to not need a fermentation controlled fridge.
At this point in time, I'm not doing this brew following the recipe again, it's not that bad, but it's also not that good.
cheers mate, I will give that a crack!!
Hey what is the ink bird your using
An "inkbird".
You plug it into the wall, then plug your fridge into the "cool" side, heat mat into the "hot" side, then set the temperature.
The inkbird will turn the fridge on when it starts getting a bit warm, and the heat mat when it gets cold. I have it set at 20°, when it gets 19° the fridge turn, at 21° the fridge turns off. If it stays on too long, or I move further south I might need it to trn the heat mat on.
Raw sugar and filtered water 🍻🇭🇲
Is this all that was in the mix do you know ? I mean did he prime the bottles or keg ? I’m wanting to do a stout the same instead of sugar maybe honey ?
What U use to clean with
Starsan
How many weeks or months did you let that ferment?
Followed the instructions as prescribed buy woollies.
1 week fermentating, 3 days cold crashing
@@parrey1985 I don't have a fermentation fridge to put it at 20degrees what could i use to keep it at that temperature!
@Kiwi Kitchen Precious I don't recall what temperature I had my fermentation fridge set at (25° I think). But I had a lot of people say the same thing "25° is to high".
The instructions gave a really broad range, and the higher temperature was right in the middle of the range. And I think this is the case because this is a budget brew, and not intended for serious brewers
@@parrey1985ok Since i don't have a fermentation fridge to make beer and to keep it at 20 or that high 25 temperature ill just make it and try to keep it at that temperature inside my garage i live in nz so the weather where i am is quite cold anyway it probably wouldn't of mattered if i had a fridge or not im quite confident that where i live i have got the cold kiwi weather doing it for me hopefully plus I've got a home brewing heating pad to keep the temperature low if it does get to high.
Diggin this video
Your welcome
Rain water makes a big difference when brewing.
What was in the tin. U had the start just the Woolies beer and sugar then U adding other stuff
If it's the silver tin, that's the Woolies lagar, with the label removed
With the water is it tap, boiled, distilled? What’s the go there
Filtered, but I have seen people fill it from the tap with a garden hose
@@parrey1985 cheers,
So you dont boil anything ?
All grain yes.
Extract no, mostly. Partial mash yes, but I've never done a partial mash, because from what I hear it tastes just like extract, and All grain is so much better.
What the name of the sentasier
Starsan
Do you use tap water
You can, but I think I filtered this
FG 00 and it's too sweet huh
Do you get a headache drinking this?
It's not that bad?
Lol diacetyl
I tried it,was ok nice flavour .the only thing wrong with it,it would not hold a head
I experienced that too.
Did you keg or bottle? I kegged, but found I needed to leave it in the keg a little longer, or have a bit of head space in the keg. Then it started getting more head.
I bottled.
@@garrycharles7526 carbonation drops, or bulk prime?
Carb drops
@@garrycharles7526 I haven't made anything on it. But look into bulk priming, it's quicker and cheaper.
Look up a video on it. I haven't made anything on it, but there's enough out there that I'd just be repeating what they've told me
How could you do it to yourself?
The views
Thankyou
Probably would have been less sweet if you had to use dextros instead of table Sugar.
Why would you brew at such a high temp? If you have temp control I would at least have fermented at 20c
The way I usually choose the temperature is I look at the recommended brewing temperature range, and set the temperature in the middle. This one was a high temperature range. I think this is because it's a cheap homebrew, and most people brewing won't have a temperature controlled fridge.
When I use US05 it's usually set to 20°c.
Also don't forget, the final gravity came out at 1.000, so this probably wasn't that poor of a choice
@@parrey1985 having a final gravity of 1.000 doesn't mean much if the beer tastes crap. A super dry finish is likely because the high temp made the yeast throw off alot of fussil alcohol
@@jmgacousticmusic still as I said, I chose the middle of their temperature range recommendation.
The beer wasn't that crap, but it also wasn't that good.
I'm still willing to attempt the toucan, where I'll use a better yeast, and I'll pick the middle of their temperature range recommendation too.
But for the record, all grain is so much better.
@@parrey1985 all grain for the win.
Is 26'C really mid temp range for this product? What are the upper and lower? Maybe it's Bakers yeast in the provided yeast pack. I was half tempted to buy a few cans a couple of weeks ago but gutted out and Coopers Lager is only a few extra bucks in Coles. It might be something I can make do in my shed that saw my 2 recent fermenters of Coopers reach 30 for a few days. Not sure how they'll taste and it forced me to buy a fridge, STC1000 and build a temp controlled ferment chamber. Ready to go today so I'll have to eat the leftover xmas prawns.
Bro. Ending gravity at 1.000 is definitely not sweet. It would be one of the driest beers I've ever seen.
This was one sweet beer.
But definitely not a good one.
Hahahahah, some years back I made a 940... Was a Homebrand Lager and 1kg Homebrand sugar. Sugar cost $1 and the lager kit $8.40, hence the 940. Beer wasn't too bad. Was a bit thin with a weak head (a bit like Joe Biden). If you had a bbq with lots of beer drinkers, nobody would know the difference....
Poor choice home brewing making woolies lager hahaha
Should we not be blowing Woolies trumpet? .. Its a multinational cash grabbing company, wiping out small business via "competition".
Why not promote the original idea of Home brew from the Coopers family in our beautiful🇦🇺 ?
May cist $5 more to brew, but a lot less foreign investors..
Sorry that tune did for me after just three minutes.
Can you please make a reaction video to The lady of heaven movie Trailer? I know this isn’t your type of content but sometimes change can be positive. It’s coming out in AMC theaters on December 10 , 2021 in the US plus you can order the ticket in advance in their website and it is expected to have a worldwide release in various countries and it’s fine, your reaction video doesn’t have to be professionally made. Your immediate action to this noble cause would be greatly appreciated. ❤️😃
What?
Sounds like a big ol' can of Spam to me! Who let this bloke in?
