Thank you very much, Vito. I used to make home brew Laga beer using Laga products. After watching your very entertaining and educational video, you have reinforced and improved my understanding and brewing skills to the next level. I just susbcribed as well. 😊
Vito, what did you get me into? I bought the Pliney kit a few weeks ago and going to bottle today. In the meantime I've been reading Palmer's book, watching videos and buying more crap than I (er the wife) ever expected. If you saw the 4 orders this week going to the same address... yeah, that was me. Thanks man and cheers!
I hear ya, when I first started brewing, I told my wife we would save money. Boy was I wrong, but it's the best hobby I ever got into. Thanks for the comment, appreciate it! Cheers and let us know if you have any questions.
Yeah, that was very good indeed 👍 Someone gave me a brew kit (it's old) and my son and I are about to embark on producing our First 5 gallons of beer. So, looking forward to seeing your next video - even though I have been following you for years 👍 🍻 🍻 CHEERS 🍻 🍻
There's literally nothing wrong with using twist off bottles....in fact I remember when they first came out asking the homebrew shop owner, he said yeah but you need 'twist off" caps. You know what they were? Regular crown caps with "twist off" labeled on them...lol. Been using standard twist off bottles since the late 80's.
Vito, quick question. I got my first kit and did my first brew yesterday and it went very well! The steps outlined made it very easy, as well as watching this video about 20x lol. My question is: When I transferred my cooled wort to my fermenter there's a point where the level of wort drops below the spigot on the kettle. There was a good bit of sediment and what not that in it too. I opted not to transfer most of that liquid into the fermenter. Was that a mistake? Will that greatly impact my beer once fermentation is done? I didn't see this touched on in the video.
Shane, great question! You did the right thing by not transferring that, it’s called “dead space” and will have been calculated into the recipe, so you are all good.
There’s no exact timeline! Hoppier beers will see their flavor fade much faster than those that are sweeter and with more alcohol, which can be aged and have the flavor continue to develop in the bottle
I'm considering buying one of these kits to embark on my first brew. This video was extremely helpful, but I do have one question. I know the importance of cleaning and sanitizing based on your points earlier in the video, but I noticed that the sanitizer was not rinsed out of any of the components it came in contact with including even the bottling stage when taking the beer into the bottles there were still some of that foamy sanitizing solution in there. Is this deemed safe? I guess I am just curious if there is any danger to having any of the solution mixed in with the final product? Was just curious on that.
Hey Shane, we’re excited for you to start your brewing journey, and this is a super common question! Star San is a no-rinse sanitizer that is completely safe to use as shown in the video when used in the proper ratio, which is 1oz to 5 gallons of water. The product’s motto is “don’t fear the foam,” which is truly a common refrain we always teach new brewers! Let us know if you have any questions, we’re here for you! Happy brewing 🍻
@@MoreBeer_ Awesome, thanks for the quick reply. I thought maybe the amount that it was diluted down to makes it safe for consumption but figured I'd ask anyways. Can't wait to get my first kit
MoreBeer can't seem to fill orders in the right order. I ordered and paid for a Brewzilla Gen 4 August 4 and have not recieved it yet. 11/7. Orders placed in September have been shipped and recieved. What's wrong MoreBeer?
Temperature is my biggest problem. Its warm in Texas summer. Is the only time I need to be concerned with temp in fermentation. How about after bottling. Temps closer to 80 in my house during hot days of summer.
The first 48 hours or so of fermentation is when most yeast driven flavor is created and it's important to keep the temp within the given yeast strains recommendation during that time. For the hotter months try using Kveik yeast, they can ferment in the 90F range and still produce clean tasty beer. As for bottles, it's best to try and keep them below 70 as well to help cut back on premature staling. It won't ruin the beer per say, just not taste fresh longer if stored warm. Hope this help, cheers
"Dont want too much StarSan in there, it can mess with the flavor" *doesnt let anything dry and runs beer through tubing immediately after pulling it from the StarSan*
instead of all that damn tinfoil bs.. I took some old stainless steel lids, and drille a hole just for the hose, and i have a bong/plug when not having a hose in there. Simpler, esier, and much cleaner.
What do you mean "we don't want to make a Belgian beer ?" We make some of the finest and best beers in the world ! And on a side note, it's always a good idea to use real measurements instead of imperial ones.

Once bottled how long will it be good for ? 1 year…2years…3uears ?

@@vitodelucchi7347 Thanks, great info
"Dont want too much StarSan in there, it can mess with the flavor" *doesnt let anything dry and runs beer through tubing immediately after pulling it from the StarSan*
"lets sanitized equipment dry" bacteria infection or small amount low pH water mixed into your beer. Choose your own adventure I suppose...

Thanks Dany!!
Those hops look strange... it's like compressed tablets, I live very near where our Belgian hops are grown, and they certainly don't look like that.
Wish we lived where you do, dude!
They are pellet hops
