    Despite having made a bunch of meads and a few wines at this point, I still somehow have never made beer or cider. This recipe is inspiring me to try a braggot.

      There are some great stove top extract kits out there that can get you started at a pretty approachable entry point, too! I know our local homebrew shop here sells 1 gallon ingredient kits for people wanting to dabble.

      I know city steadying did a braggot with a hopped liquid malt extract which looked really easy for beginners as well. I’m trying it as we speak with a the liquid malt extract can’t wait to find out how it works. Only I’m doing strawberry, hopped liquid malt and clover honey. It started fermenting last night and then when it’s done I’ll carbonate and bottle. Essentially just pour and mix everything together but you won’t get those other more interesting grains and hoops. I think you trade complexity for simplicity with this method.

    Last weekend I bottled a 5-gallon batch of Skeeter Pee (thank you for bringing the recipe to my attention!), and it was my first time bottling a batch in 100% 12oz bottles. Usually I fill 750ml wine bottles, with 5-6x 12oz bottles for the dregs. I was not prepared for how much work it is to fill 53 (!!) bottles at once!

    Hey Doin The Most! I have been a really big fan of this brew in particular and have made it multiple times. I actually just made a batch yesterday except this time I started with 5 gal of water using same grain bill and then used 2 gal of sparge water around 160f. Then boil for 1 hour instead of the 15 min to help promote clarity. I also only use 1 oz of Amarillo at 15 min left as my only hop addition. I ferment inside of a keg using pressure fermentation because I find it makes for a really clean and crisp beer with no fear of oxidation or infection. Everything about the brew was very smooth but I actually got a different result for my OG than normal. I think the sparge water increased my efficiency causing my starting gravity to be 1.064. I'm really hoping it doesn't affect the overall balance of the brew because this is my favorite. Woke up this morning the my keg whistling away! Lowered the spunding valve to around 7 psi and it started spraying foam haha😂. Very happy fermentation going on it seems. Just wanted to share. Thanks for all you do!

    I made close to this recipe recently - my only changes due to what I had lying around were I used Simcoe instead of Mandarina Bavaria and I had some fairly generic wildflower honey to use. Even with more generic honey this turned out delicious, good reviews from friends and family alike! My one regret is only making 1 gallon to start and it's so good that I just have to try it in the truly proper to recipe way next. My first time trying a braggot and a resounding success! Thanks BC!

      My recipe for 1.5 gallons batch :
      375g of Orange Blossom Honey
      680g of Two-Row
      204g of Munich
      204g of White Wheat
      102g of Honey Malt
      102g of Carapils
      50g of Acid Malt
      4.5g of Amarillo Hops
      9g of Mandarina Bavaria Hops
      Kveik Voss Yeast, pitched at 1g/L
      (boiled for 35 min, used ~2 gallons of water + 250 ml sparge)
      added hops at 15 min before flameout
      added orange blossom honey @flameout and swirl in making sure nothing stick to the bottom
      cooled and transferred to fermented with all the trub because it had a huge honey smell to it and that generally work fine for me
      took reading - OG: 1.070
      didn't add any nutrients (honey + trub should be enough), no whirlfloc (might be a mistake) and pitched 7 grams total because my OG was higher than expected
      not sure why my OG is so high, maybe I didn't scale it properly or my yield was better (asked for double grind on the grains and it was really fine)
      should be good none the less, will update when I tested it !
      and goddamn that honey is good!

    What up doin the most. Big fan of your channel sir. Quick question: Once fermentation is done in about 11 days can I prime and bottle right away? Also if I don’t prime and keg instead will it be ready to drink a week or so sooner? I did a double batch of your recipe but substituted out the orange blossom for Wildflower and used 2 ounces of hallertau hops and 1 ounce of German opal. In 1 6 gallon carboy I used Kveik yeast and the other carboy American ale yeast. Excited to see the results. Thanks!

Not sure if i can get all the grain ingredients tho but just wondering if i can’t boil a full 6 or 7 gal wort is it ok to just boil a 1 gal/4 liter wort and add water to 5 gal like you’ve done in previous recipes.
