This fuckin brewer guy clearly knows his chemistry, A+ from me.
Not that my opinion is worth shit.
Don't Even Bother The brewer reminds me of Seth Rogen
The Roasted Potato lol i agrè thats why im careful while commen4ing but not in this case
dang this is one of the few channels that actually makes quality videos. Feels kinda weird that you guys aren't growing that fasy
+JEDUARD "fasy"
+murre mångs a whole new word for a even faster speed.
+EvoLifeSword Love it.
Fasy,? FACY??? WOT!!!!!
ZozTheKing The Real Zoz Man he meant fast
I've been homebrewing for years and I was really glad to see they did this with a homebrew company on a scale thats replicable by the layman rather than with a major brewer. Really well done!
Also, I screwed up my first wheat beer by making it 100% wheat.... this video actually really helped me troubleshoot the issues I've had with wheat beer in the past. Thanks!
What went wrong if I may ask?
AB-InBev owns Northern Brewer...so kinda is a major brewer.
NeReni how much sugar, per bottle, is being added to safely carbonate? 🤔
the.content.you.deserve about 3-4 oz of cane sugar for a 5 gallon batch or 4-5 oz of corn sugar
Ne Reni, so, what is 100% wheat? Should I add another kind of wheat or?
Love the longer format of this. Much easier to follow when watched all at once rather than split up. Thanks guys, great stuff as always - worth the wait!
+Chris probably not best for money though
+Justin Ejimah Not necessarily. Patreon is more significant for them than UA-cam revenue. I think this format might encourage more people to join up.. the content feels worth more in one long video, at least to me.. like mini documentaries.
+Chris I agree. I hate the fact that the videos are always broken up; I usually wait until all of the videos have been released for a certain thing he's making to watch them all at once any way. It makes it easier to follow.
+Chris Thanks, we're experimenting with the ideal lengths for these and if people prefer them longer or divided up. I added a poll card to the video if you want to vote and weigh in.
would 2 hours work for soaking the wheat
Lol i love when they're in the hops greenhouse and every time they switch the camera back to Andy u can see more and more sweat
+That one Innocent Bystander They turned off the ventilation system while we were recording so we could hear better and it really heated up quickly. It was like 40ºF outside, but once the vents were off it was almost 100ºF inside by the end of the interview.
+How To Make Everything kudos to you my friend for surviving that heat for who knows how many takes.
Brad is a treasure trove of straightforward knowledge about brewing beer.
I love the new mini documentary format :D
+TheKIRBYMASTER8 Thanks, we're experimenting with the ideal lengths for these and if people prefer them longer or divided up. I added a poll card to the video if you want to vote and weight in.
+How To Make Everything I just like having content!
+How To Make Everything Is it danger When you make Sonthing wrong ?
There's brewery near my high school and for the longest time I thought it was a bakery because of the strong yeast smell. I asked my friends where the bakery was and they were like "Um, that's not bread that's whiskey." lol
cool story
he always looks like you just told him that you slightly ripped his drawing
Oddly specific vaha
I agree completely! So stiff-necked, too!
My new favorite saying “smells like beer, looks like beer, must be beer” and then you taste it and “nope, that’s not beer”
I made my own apple cider once.
Bottled it too early and they all exploded on me.
Nifty trick. Boil a big pot of water then turn it off. Sit your bottles in the pot and it will kill the yeast and stop fermentation
@@kingRukus39 That doesn't help if you want carbonated cider.
Ew you carbonated cider who does that
Make a bubbler, or burp it every 5 or so hours. Until it kinda stops
@@wildsidecreations583 car onated cidre is enjoyed the world over, I might recoil from not carbonated cider. Try both :)
"How Beer Saved the World" is a really good documentary on beer history
Robert from Egyptians,Europeans
to shy guys talking to girls!
Is it on netlfix?
I am gruit
Andrew Forsyth beat me to it
Beat me to it
Beat me to it

Come on, continue the chain.
Beat me to it
I have been watching several of this channels videos today and I just want to say that the production quality of this show is very well done. I am glad I came across it in my recommended videos a few days ago. Very well done, and I also like the host, Andy. Some people think he's awkward with how he speaks to the people he learns from to make things, but the way how he gives very few gestures and is silent when they are speaking looks like respect to the masters of their craft. I somewhat strive to do the same in being like that when someone is teaching me something.
This was awesome! So good!
*putting honey into wheat beer*
Me, a German: NEIN NEIN NEIN NEIN NEIN!!!!!!!!
It's funny, i'm from Flanders and an uncle of mine is also into homebrewing (as am i, so he likes to talk about it to me) and he told me that Germany has very strict rules to brewing beer, you have to stick to certain recipes, you cannot choose your own ingredients and stuff. Which i find weird, in Flanders you can go ahead and put pumpkins or honey into beer, whatever suits your flavor!
@@geojelly9830 Yes, we got something called the "german purity law". It exists since the 16th century, and basically it says that the only ingredients for beer should be barley, hops and water. And I like my beer that way tbh
@@RicebeheaderPat Me too, classic beer is great but experimentinging with other ingredients is fine too in my eyes
@@RicebeheaderPat Actually it allows for malt, yeast, hops and water. It doesn't specify the type of grain used to make malt. Otherwise you couldn't enjoy your wheat beer, as it contains wheat and not just barley.
EXACTLY!
Love the new format! This was also a really interesting episode, can't wait to see what's next!
This is a binge-watch series for me
Hey can you make Sake, i would love to learn how to make Japanese rice wine.
+Darké Wolvé (CptDarkwolf) Definitely would love to make sake, if I'm ever able to make it to Japan someday.
It would be cool to see you go to Japan to do it...But good news! There are a few sake brewers in America, most of them Japanese immigrants... So it would save you time trying to find a translator. Here is one in Portland homebrewsake.com/home/contact-us/
And one near San Francisco www.takarasake.com/contact.php
I hope i like the help Btw.. do you mind if you do a special episode for me... Not anything too big.. Just something that interests me and im sure might interest other people.... Aka How to make ships/boats... Mostly the privateer ( and a little on pirates included)
actually technically sake is a beer^^
Neotoribaru well... It's both beer and wine but... Its more beer... Wine has to be main from a fruit and beer has to be made from a type of grain... But if you ever had sake... You would know why its like wine as its smooth bodied and quite aromatic, sometimes it has a fruity overtones... Depends on if you get cheap low quality sake though... Higher the quality... More wine like it is in taste... So its nither beer or wine... Infact people have been talking about making a new group altogether to put it in as beer and wine are both accurate descriptions of it.
+Darké Wolvé (CptDarkwolf) I have brewed beer that had fruity overtones. It's based in the yeast and what temperature you ferment at...I don't like fruity beers, so I am keeping my current beer on the cold side.
thank you for making these. I really enjoyed watching them. you have a great skill set. please continue your work.
This was SUPER interesting to watch, I loved this. I think this has been the most enjoyable episode you've put out.
This is by far one of the best episodes you guys have put out and i really liked the new format! It was a bit difficult to keep track of each episode but this is much better! congrats guys and I hope you blow up soon here on youtube !
you deserver WAY more subs than you got right now
+Honest Reviewer Yeah, I don't know how this channel isn't at 1,000,000 yet...
you desever better grammar
ethan huertas deserve
@@Trolld it was a joke
maybe because the presenter looks dead inside!
Binging on your videos rn. This one is my favorite. Great job on all the effort you put into the videos!
Brilliant as always !! Really inspiring, might give this a go during the summer period, thanks!!
This channel is getting better with every video. Loving the new show and format in general.
This channel deserves way more subs.
This guy really knows his stuff, mad respect.
Nicely done. As a homebrewer, I love to see that you brewed it on a small scale using simple techniques. I don't do brew in a bag, but I also use gravity instead of pumps. Makes the process simple.
best video in category of how to make beer,,very clear,informative, procedure and lots of knowledgeable deatails
Awesome first episode of the brewing series! Can't wait to see what else you guys have in the works. This has reminded me of my plans to try out a molasses type of beer that I wanted to try out, perhaps I will do that sometime. My parent's have the required equipment to make and bottle wine/beer so all I really have to do is plan things out and do it.
This is the best and most interesting channel I have ever seen on UA-cam! Keep the videos coming.
This episode was really interesting. Thank you HTME and Northern Brewer's
Excellent / well thought out complete video 👍🏻👍🏻
Pretty cool that you malted the wheat!
Market available brewers wheat is no higher in protein than standard six row brewers malt, 12 to 16% protein. When wheat is above 16% protein it isn't used for brewing. The higher the modification, the less the enzyme richness and the higher the protein percentage, the less the sugar content.
Try this next time. Dough in the wheat at 60F. Then, remove a small volume of mash and increase pH in the small portion to at least 8 and raise the temperature to 113 to 115F. It is called the ferulic rest. Rest the mash for 20 minutes. Before adding the ferulic mash back into the main mash reduce pH to 5.5 by using sauer malz.
After the ferulic mash has been added back into the main mash, adjust pH of the main mash to 5.5 pH. There is a reason for it to be 5.5, it has to do with enzymatic action. Then, remove a portion of the main mash (1st decoction) and increase the temperature of the decoction to 122F and rest the mash for 20 minutes. After 20 minutes, increase the temperature of the 1st decoction to 155F and rest for 20 minutes. Then, boil the mash for at least 30 minutes. and skim off break as it forms. The longer the decoction is boiled, the better. Enzymatically, nothing is occurring in the main mash, so you can screw with the 1st decoction for a long time. Boiling will reduce protein gum and burst complex starch. Return the decoction back into the main mash to reach 130F. During the 130F rest, albuminous protein will reduce, beta glucan will be reduced to glucose. Mash viscosity will reduce due to glucose formation. The simple sugar, glucose, formed during the 155F decoction rest and during the 130F rest will convert to maltose and maltotrios, complex types of sugar, during the next cycles. When the main mash temperature stabilizes, remove the 2nd decoction and rapidly increase the temperature of the decoction to 146F and rest the mash for 20 minutes. After 20 minutes, boil the decoction for 30 minutes. More protein gum will boil away, skim off break as it forms. After the boiling period has ended, return the 2nd decoction back into the main mash. Stabilize the temperature at 149/150F and reduce pH to 5.3 and no lower than 5. When mash temperature and pH stabilize, remove the 3rd decoction and quickly raise the temperature to 154F and rest the decoction for 10 minutes. Then, boil the decoction for 20 minutes, skimming off break as it forms. Return the decoction back into the main mash to reach 162F, Alpha I range, and rest the mash for 15 minutes. Mash out and allow the mash to rest, mud will form on the bed, do not stir the mud. Lauter, slowly. Using Lager yeast, first fermentation seven to 10 days at 55F. Second fermentation at 45F for two weeks. The maltose will be absorbed by the yeast and converted into glucose during second fermentation, causing gravity reduction when the glucose ferments. Keg when gravity reduces to 1015. Maltotriose will be absorbed by yeast and natural carbonation will occur. Priming sugar or artificial carbonation will not be needed. The final product will be superior in quality than what was produced during the vid.
When an optimum temperature is used, pH must be optimum, as well. A mistake that home brewers make, is in assuming that pH 5.2 is spot on during all of the phases of the brewing cycle. When the single infusion method is used, there is only one cycle, so it is more important to match temperature and pH with the enzyme being activated. Do not assume that Mother Nature creates malt to be so perfect that all of the ducks line up specifically for a home made beer brewers usage.
Try to find Meussdoerffer sauer malz, it is the finest sauer malz available to the home brewer, it is the malt used by European brew masters. It wouldn't be a bad idea to purchase a decent pH meter.

This sounds like the most punishing brew day ever ... Do you self flagellate while carrying out this painful process?
You should publish this and get your PhD!
BADASS! I totally dig projects like this. Keep inspiring brother!!!!!!!!!
Loved this! Especially beside your reboot, it's perfect
I watched your book series but you earned my sub today, very professional video and very informative.
This actually made me crave for some Wheat Beer right away!! Amazingly done, this video :)
This is a really cool video. Entertaining and informative. Keep making these!
Tons of great information. Thanks for the video. Thumbs up!
I like this format of the video
One of the best videos so far.
I love the way you like explaining how the beer is made
Very good episode!
This was awesome. I've made a couple Mr. Brew DIY kits that turned out well. Nice to see the full legit process in a mini-doc format.
Wow.. Wonderful explanation.. Awesome video... I like this one...
Gonna love this series
best episode so far - longer, informative and the interviews were much less awkward
Cheers! Awesome stuff!
The best kind of Beer. Cheers!
I love this new format as well as everyone because it doesn't make it so you have to keep track of things
Really enjoyed your vid i grew up listing to my grandmother making home brew during proabition. Once a batch blew up on her. Thanks to you i now know it was too much sugar. Now ill have another beer and think of her. Thanks man
dude!! amazing videos!!!
Great Video.. And awesome choice of using Northern Brewer.. Their UA-cam channel is what got me into Home Brewing..
Love your content. It's nice that its all natural
amazing episode!
great work!
Great presentation, I'm watching this drinking a glass of "wind and sea" wheat beer from San Diego karl Strauss brewery
awesome vid. especially since I wanna start brewing in some point in the future
The brewer dude looked chill as hell. This channel is amazing.
this video is pretty fantastic
This is fascinating to watch even though I don't drink.
Scott Mew you think that's bad I can't even legally drink, nor do I illegally.
It's not bad per se, unless you're counting the limited selection of beverages that I have to choose from. For the most part my abstention is due to family history, being Asian, dislike the taste of most alcoholic beverages and wanting to keep myself under control at all times. I really don't ever want to find out what kind of drunk I am nor let out anything that I can't take back. The most rebellious thing I did regarding alcohol was drink a glass of wine at my cousin's wedding 2 days before I was 21.
Scott Mew Well, each to their own. I'm 15 but have been drunk a few times. Never gotten a hangover though, not even after 8 beers. I too was afraid of what kinda drunk I'll be. I turned out to be a laughing one that cant remember the most basic things like rules of a simple card game.
You poor thing. Do you come from a broken home?
No, I come from a country where children drinking is a usual thing. It's not even punishable if it's your first time.
Good work !
this channel deserves so many more subscribers
Great format! :)
I can't stop watching your videos. I first saw your sandwichch video after another UA-camr mentioned the video and now I'm addicted. You should make some wine next but Idk how hard it is to grow grapes.
Neat Job!
Even the advert break was amazing. First channel that considers advert incorporation
Highly interesting !
Great vid, subed
I've been watching you for ever and just realized your from Minnesota, I live in Minneapolis
Great video . searching for a tutorial to grow my own wheat now
Extremely great channel
Great, now I want to do it myself
Nice job! Production value has taken a big step up.
Wow!! A 100% wheat beer?? I’d love to try that!!
Sai Yagnesh CH That wasn't wheat, wheat doesn't have "hair"n rye does and barley does!
Very informative
This was really interesting ^^
I started watching and at about 7 min in I paused. Went downstairs, prepared thin sliced salami, olives, cheese, pickles and some garlic bread. Came back up, cracked open my coold beer and enjoyed this video to its fullest
This is amazing
I love hydroponics and aquaponics too it's so facinating
Loved it
YUMMMY !!!!!
Well done, sir. Very well done.
Cheers to the Brewer! He made the beer, you just watched. You can streamline the process by bottling it a week early and letting it finish in the bottle without adding honey
nice vid!!
That looks really great, now I kinda want to work out a homebrew
I'm so glad this is a longer video. I'm sorry if I was a bit rude with my comment on an earlier video but i'm glad you did something about the main criticism I had.
+lostunsunghero No problem, I always enjoy getting feedback and finding out what is or isn't working for people.
+How To Make Everything You should plug the Patreon thing a bit more and add the typical "don't forget to like share and subscribe". In all honesty I know people hate it but it really does help get you gain viewership. You could add your own twist to it to make it personal, but definitely speak over that outro layout instead of music.
The reason I say this is if you think of end credits on a movie or tv show, nobody really pays attention. If you are saying it you are drawing attention to it.
your the most hardworking youtuber ever keep it up
I'm 17 and this video got me into wanting to brew beer
Now I'll have to get me a cold one after watchting this video and listen to my favorite bands Delta Parole and GNR.
Love the beer aftertaste
Sick hops dude!
Very good video 👍
Great video
I try this because i have hops around me , i discover today when bikeing around.
This was great! I really enjoy your videos, they are interesting to watch and you are a great host! liked and subscribed, Keep it up!
+Burrestamme Thanks!
I love wheat beer or how the Germans call it weizen beer , your channel makes quality videos , subscribed.
i loved it
