I once made kvass (with actually black bread) following your video from long ago, and when a friend asked “how much alcohol?”I literally answered like boris “nobody knows” It seems I’ve truly mastered the gopnik way
"The point of Gopnik bear is not to get drunk but to surprise your liver that you are not drinking vodka". My stomach hurt after I stopped laughing. Boris is the best youtuber by far. So original, so dedicsted. Not boring useless content. You are the best Boris.
I remember seeing Boris’s video of kvas making like 3-4 years ago. I became insanely hooked and started brewing kvas on a regular basis. One thing followed the other and i got into beer brewing all thanks to Boris. I really found a new passion in it, and after a year i bought proffessional equipment, and enlisted to a brewmaster’s course. It has been two years since my first brew, and i just graduated as one of the youngest brewmaster of my country, recived a job offer at my favourite craft brewry, and having plans to open my own micro brewhouse after i finished uni. With all that in mind, and with all respect and gratitude to Boris for setting me on this journey, i have one question in mind: what the actual hell is this fermented gopnik juice?
From my (completely uneducated) perspective, this looks like the simplest possible beer that anyone can make. I mean... the only remotely expensive ingredient on this list is the malt extract. The only other ingredients are just sugar, a block of regular yeast, and water which are dirt cheap for most people with the ability to watch UA-cam videos regularly. If you're a wayward gopnik with a few bucks to his name and some convenient vessel for fermenting large quantities of liquid, I don't see how this WOULDN'T get you drunk. I mean... it can't possibly be any worse than the swill that American macrobrewers pretend is beer.
I much rather take the kvass route instead of the malt extract, amp up the fermentable sugar content with table sugar, and spend a bit more money on the project and buy some top fermenting yeast with clean taste to it such as the us-05. Regardless it’s nice to see the slavic spin on the budget beer, here in hungary we did the same traditionally but instead of the syrup we opted for bread and unmalted barley for the taste, and maybe even wild hops if there was any growing near.
@@tehandroidmaster Technically not actual beer. More like cloudy, self-carbonated sugar wine. There is no enzymatic starch breakdown going on, just metabolisation of simple and double sugars.
You've trained Artyom very well for supervised outdoor fun. That is the body language of a calm, happy and relaxed kitty who is comfortable wherever Boris takes him.

Would love to see a collar with a little bell to make sure he doesn’t kill all the birds around lol, since he’s just visiting I doubt he’s meant to hunt the mice
@@JUJU-yg1xi I don't agree with you, i think its kinda cruel to ruin their natural hunting instinct. I got an NFC now, and after i moved her to my garden allotment, she have hunted down every mouse, rat and moles. I don't have mice or rats in my loft or walls, and my garden is free from moles. She even cleared out moles from all the nearby gardens.
Belgians: We use ale yeast for the fruity, spicy flavors it can bring. Czechs: We prefer lager yeast and soft water for a crisp, refreshing beer. Russians: BRED
@@darrendaly1234 best way to measure is to use original and final gravity. Basically a measure how much sugar is in the wort (after the boil) compared to what’s left after fermentation. You’re probably on average going to see roughly 5-7% or so, and possibly up to 10% but usually higher alcohol content can only be achieved with specialized yeasts and high OG. Actually scratch that. I’m not sure what sorts of numbers this particular beer would reach, (maybe 3-4%?). I would personally boil my wort for several reasons, not just because it’s sterile, but also because you’ll get caramelization out of your malt sugars (and because it releases the hop alphas for whatever hops are on the boil) and for a higher OG.
only boris can make an 8 minute video where 3 minutes are messing around, 4 minutes are playing with his cat and only a minute is spent actually brewing, and yet still make it the most informative video on youtube
I haven't seen anything from Boris in years but I'll never forget when he taught me and my best friend how to make Kvass in our kitchen when we were 16 lol
@@peepeepoopoo7723 It tasted good! Although my mixture wasn't sterile enough.. because the new vat that I used was leaking so I had to..with my idiot brain close the valve of the vat..but the mixture was already inside. I tried to clean my hands thorougly but to no avail. The mixture died and it contained no bubbles whatsoever. The taste was good but I'll try a new mixture in the near future.
Captian homebrew here: usually ales take 3-4 weeks from brewing to drinking, on the flip side lagers should be at least 3 months old before consumption, and there are strong beers that require even more time up to a year. Still, it’s nothing compared to red wine, or scotch
@@merce5434 a quick British ale yeast like S-04 can rip through a 4-5% beer in 2 days. I've served a 1.050-1.014 beer 5 days after I brewed it and it was delicious.
I had no luck at fast fermenting with english ale yeasts, even at lower degrees with TC it came out to be too estery and yeasty, and my latest best bitter had to rest for a month before the phenols weren’t too dominating any more. On the other hand i had pretty good results with the US-05, having maximum attenuation at day 6, with a clean and crisp taste to it. Hell, not even talking about kveiks :D
Wyeast 3711 French Saison yeast is another one that will tear through lower gravity worts. If you force carb in a keg it's possible to have a beer ready in 24-48 hours.

Malt extract can be pretty hard to find in grocery stores, unless Whole Foods is your idea of a normal grocery store. It can be bought online pretty reliably though
I made the kvas with the Boris recipe. It was gooood! I just started making regular beer recently. I'm going to make a hard kvas soon. It's definitely worth trying.
a quick finnish lesson on the different names we have for different beverages: kalja or olut = beer kotikalja = "home beer", a slightly alcoholic and sweet beer, apparently similar to kvass kvassi = kvass sahti = unfiltered farmhouse ale sima = traditionally a type of mead, but nowadays it's usually made with sugar instead of honey kilju = sugar wine
@@quandale_dingle6353 We may have more than 50 ways to pronounce single animal or object. But when talking about alcohol we like to keep things nice and simple :D
We also have a cheaper substitute to kotikalja in finland which is called kilju "which is basically pruno" We use 2 Liters of orange juice, a kilogram of sugar and some turbo yeast and let it settle for a week. It will be around 8-18% alcohol depending on the quality of the mix
As an industrial maintenance mechanic, sometimes you don't have pliers and you do have a hammer and a flat object. Works wonders on anything not smooth
@@kubaGR8 Because even if you only use malt extract and no real grain, you need to boil for about an hour to kill any and all bacteria and wild yeast, then you need to disinfect all the equipment and containers to make sure there is no bacteria or wild yeast. You need special yeast that is both resistant to higher alcohol levels and that has the correct flavor profile. Boris just said fuck it, I am stronger than bacteria and went for it. Complete insanity but It seems to work for him, atleast for now..
@@moskiito2501 Malt extract is very common even for "gourmet" brewers. Regular yeast will of course work and won't be harmful, so no issue there. but still, disinfection is important, you don't want Boris to fall ill.
Hey, Boris, I am now getting your videos suggested to me on UA-cam again, and I am so happy to see you still making these, great job, love your videos, they make me laugh, smile, and puts me in a good mood after a long slow day, thank you for continuing to put so many smiles on our faces over the years.
I have been making my own beer and wine for 40 years . I'm a 4th generation wine maker and it's works the same for wine as it does for beer no fancy sugar or yeast just grab the stuff in the kitchen and make wine . as long as the fruit is clean and the containers are clean as bleach can get them you will make wine. just mash the fruit in a 5 gallon bucket you have cleaned add 50 / 50 water to fruit add yeast and sugar put on a lid and wait after 3 days strain out the fruit put the juice in a large glass jug cap it with a balloon and let it set for up to 2 week or tell it stops bubbling . let it set for a week with a cap on the bottle to settle out any solids then bottle it or drink it it's done. you may need to add sugar if it's to sour it will have consumed all the sugar you put it but it will have turned it all in to alcohol . If you do add sugar wait to see if it starts up again if it does it's still making alcohol and will just get stronger .
The gopnik king is looking better than ever! I haven’t checked in for awhile, to my everlasting shame, but wow, boris looking fit and fabulous! Artyom looks in good health as well, sweet boi that he is
I've made beer before and I remember doing the following: 1; Using barley grain, which I boiled 2: Using yeast 3: Adding hops 4: Waiting about a week, before putting into bottles. I've also made cider before and it's way easier. 1: Press apples into juice 2: Wait.
If anyone is curious about how to measure the amount of alcohol in the beer you'll need a hydrometer and preferably a measuring tube. After mixing the sugar and malt together take some and pour it into the tube then take your hydrometer and place it in as well. Makes sure to spin the meter to remove any bubbles or other things that could throw it off. Wait for a little and once it stops bobbing write down the number at which it stopped. The number you will write down will be on the hydrometer, not the tube. Pour what's in the tube back into the pot or drink it I don't really care. Wait until the beer has fermented and then pour some of that delicious nectar of the gods into the measuring tube again and then also the hydrometer. Write down where it stops bobbing. Now subtract the first number you wrote down from the second one. Whatever you get for the answer multiple it by 131.25 and then the number from that is your alcohol percentage. Also, don't forget to convert it over to percentage.
@@Demonslayer20111 Yeah, lots of people don't drink responsibly and it's clogging up the hospitals with non-covid related cases, and people tend to not social distance adequately, so there's been a 3rd wave now that has hit us, including the Delta variant.

Boris is perfectly within reason to call that "kotikalja". It IS pretty much kvass. I use kotikalja malt extract all the time to make roughly 12% beer just like this. Sugar, yeast, malt extract. Good stuff
Hey Boris, Thanks for making such fun and educational videos. I really envy your Babushkas house in the country. There's a part of me that want's to leave the sweltering and dry Southern California and buy a piece of the country life in Russia and be left alone. Alot of times things in the west are not what they seem on the surface.
If you put it in plastic soda bottles and you make sure to burp it regularly the chances of it exploding are not that high... Or get an airlock, which has 0% chance of exploding.
@@PwrTorch if youre interested in brewing your own beer most of the kits you buy will be glass for just the fermentation step, after a couple of days you bottle the beer and then add a little sugar to the bottles before capping them. thats the point where they can explode and they can absolutely explode scattering glass everywhere, i would 100% recommend keeping them in a box with a lid so when (and I say when because every time ive ever made beer ive always had at least one explode) the glass is contained and you dont have to clean up a huge very dangerous glass mess like have had to do (not in my bathroom, thankfully in my unfinished basement that I wear shoes to go down in anyways)
There's a plant called alehoof a.k.a. creeping Charlie that is not only an invasive weed, but a clarifying, preserving, and bittering agent used as a hops substitute throughout history.
@@ΣπυρίδωνΔούκας Mugwort is also a viable hops alternative although I would think if one is allergic to hops you should do a skin test with mugwort before eating it.

And remember to keep Vadims away!

As an industrial maintenance mechanic, sometimes you don't have pliers and you do have a hammer and a flat object. Works wonders on anything not smooth
@@ZananoQuinito Thats an Interesting Addition to my Post. Thank you very much and have a good day, sir
This goes against everything I know about brewing beer and it’s awesome.
It really does. I’ve been brewing for close to 20 years now and I was practically screaming at the video while simultaneously laughing just as hard.
@@praiseboognish1979 Because they pretty much made slightly alcoholic malt water, or...?
@@kubaGR8 Because even if you only use malt extract and no real grain, you need to boil for about an hour to kill any and all bacteria and wild yeast, then you need to disinfect all the equipment and containers to make sure there is no bacteria or wild yeast. You need special yeast that is both resistant to higher alcohol levels and that has the correct flavor profile. Boris just said fuck it, I am stronger than bacteria and went for it. Complete insanity but It seems to work for him, atleast for now..
@@novideohereatall Relax bro, its the classic way to make proper eastern european homebrew. This malt extract is sold at every bigger grocery store.
@@moskiito2501 Malt extract is very common even for "gourmet" brewers. Regular yeast will of course work and won't be harmful, so no issue there. but still, disinfection is important, you don't want Boris to fall ill.
Hey, Boris, I am now getting your videos suggested to me on UA-cam again, and I am so happy to see you still making these, great job, love your videos, they make me laugh, smile, and puts me in a good mood after a long slow day, thank you for continuing to put so many smiles on our faces over the years.
I bless the higher power for bringing this video to my feed. I have found my new favorite channel.
Boris playing with Artyom is the most blessed thing I've seen this month
I hope this vid gets the statistics it deserves from this precious amount of work. Keep going on Boris, I love watching your content :)
Perkele! Olut/kalja on hyvää and love Boris.
Boris' dedication to drink with his mask on is immensely respectable.
It actually works too XD (I have tried it and you can actually drink through the mesh pretty well!)
@@dirkudo1075 Yeah, they have no problem eating bread as well in Stalker.
I just literally watched the two mead vids less than an hour ago and now this, perfect timing.
i made the mead my self now for a few times... WORTH IT!
Hi Boris! I´m from Brasil and I like your "gopniks" videos. Congratulations from Brasil, friend! Enjoy kvass!
4:20 Да! Finally is Life of Artyom part 3!
Artyom is a big cat now
Boris playing with Artyom is so wholesome
Nice to see that the algorithm is treating you well again :)
New uamee song and Boris video? Today is an amazing day!
Love ur profile Pick comrade it is also my discord logo
Ahh yes, Charles
My toughts exactly! A nice day!
I have been making my own beer and wine for 40 years . I'm a 4th generation wine maker and it's works the same for wine as it does for beer no fancy sugar or yeast just grab the stuff in the kitchen and make wine . as long as the fruit is clean and the containers are clean as bleach can get them you will make wine. just mash the fruit in a 5 gallon bucket you have cleaned add 50 / 50 water to fruit add yeast and sugar put on a lid and wait after 3 days strain out the fruit put the juice in a large glass jug cap it with a balloon and let it set for up to 2 week or tell it stops bubbling . let it set for a week with a cap on the bottle to settle out any solids then bottle it or drink it it's done. you may need to add sugar if it's to sour it will have consumed all the sugar you put it but it will have turned it all in to alcohol . If you do add sugar wait to see if it starts up again if it does it's still making alcohol and will just get stronger .
Your videos make my day komrad , shoutout from Brazil .

Boris playing with that cat gives me life. Happy last day of June, Boris and Co! I hope your July is full of good things.
The gopnik king is looking better than ever! I haven’t checked in for awhile, to my everlasting shame, but wow, boris looking fit and fabulous!
Artyom looks in good health as well, sweet boi that he is
The ONE person who gets recognized more in public with a mask on.
Don't forget about Swaggersouls but you are still right
brewing beer? since when did you get this fancy
kvas is all one needs
Kvass is gud
Just straight ans simple kvass.
@@chillgamer3171 no alcohol no bs
Kvassflix and chill.
i bet he was making kvass but left it for too long
You live in such a cool place, i love the old stuff around and the nature.
I've made beer before and I remember doing the following:
1; Using barley grain, which I boiled
2: Using yeast
3: Adding hops
4: Waiting about a week, before putting into bottles.
I've also made cider before and it's way easier.
1: Press apples into juice
2: Wait.
"Do not drink when you drive, and is all fine!" This is gold! Keep up the good work.
Boris is one of the nicest people
If anyone is curious about how to measure the amount of alcohol in the beer you'll need a hydrometer and preferably a measuring tube. After mixing the sugar and malt together take some and pour it into the tube then take your hydrometer and place it in as well. Makes sure to spin the meter to remove any bubbles or other things that could throw it off. Wait for a little and once it stops bobbing write down the number at which it stopped. The number you will write down will be on the hydrometer, not the tube. Pour what's in the tube back into the pot or drink it I don't really care. Wait until the beer has fermented and then pour some of that delicious nectar of the gods into the measuring tube again and then also the hydrometer. Write down where it stops bobbing. Now subtract the first number you wrote down from the second one. Whatever you get for the answer multiple it by 131.25 and then the number from that is your alcohol percentage. Also, don't forget to convert it over to percentage.
So the formula is:
(First number) - (second number) = (Number) × 131.25
@@briskman8368 more like: Alc% = 131.25(second number - first number)
@@FullOnStriker ok thank you
I never thought I’d hear the sounds of the steel pan in a Boris video. Brilliant , love from Trinidad and Tobago🇹🇹🇹🇹
I'm a serious russophile and this is one of my favorite Russian programs. Thanks, I love it.
Good timing! We've moved to level 4 lockdown. No alcohol sales. Viva, Boris!
I uhh... What? Theres a pandemic so no drinking allowed?
Omg, where? Poor kids. I hope they get justice someday.
@@Demonslayer20111 Yeah, lots of people don't drink responsibly and it's clogging up the hospitals with non-covid related cases, and people tend to not social distance adequately, so there's been a 3rd wave now that has hit us, including the Delta variant. Anyway this is the reasoning the government has put forward to us...
@@TheN0odles then close the bars? Banning alcohol outright is just stupid
@@Demonslayer20111 I agree
Who else Immediately presses the like button as soonest a new boris video comes out before even seeing it?
You know it'll be good because it came from the slav king himself ❤️
My whole childhood smelt of my dad brewing beer, used to hate it now I love it cause it brings me back to my childhood. It’s also funny since I can pinpoint the smell in area that I’m near
thank you for teaching us so many important stuff boris, and as a polish person i will make sure that one day kielecki will sponsor you
So happy to see Artyom! Also, I'm slightly jelly of the big sauna in the backyard! It seems almost ready to use. Have a good summer too Boris, and Anatoli, and Artyom
Greetings from England Boris! Love your channel. So as appreciation for content bought one of your hoods
Ah, it's good to see Comrade Artyom after a while.
it's funny how "vadim's house" is an abstract concept not limited by space XD
The world is Vadim's house
What do you mean? Vadim's house is right next door!
Which is also an abstract concept not limited by space.
@@zyriantel9601 wherever boris goes, vadim goes with him. house and all. XD
I tried this recipe, and it came to about 8% ABV just using baking yeast. Haven't had a chance to try it carbonated yet, but looking forward to it!
Wow, that makes my interest grow Sir. I only drink strong beer.
Boris is perfectly within reason to call that "kotikalja". It IS pretty much kvass. I use kotikalja malt extract all the time to make roughly 12% beer just like this. Sugar, yeast, malt extract. Good stuff
"we use HIGHTECH technology!"
**proceeds to hit the container with wood plank and hammer**
Is highest technology know to all of Slav kind blyat
He should've used AK
It's not even a hammer. He hits it with a back of an axe )
and it WORKS. if it's stupid but it works, it ain't stupid lololo
Good old Soviet technique.
Doesn't work?
Hit it hard.

Hey Boris, Thanks for making such fun and educational videos. I really envy your Babushkas house in the country. There's a part of me that want's to leave the sweltering and dry Southern California and buy a piece of the country life in Russia and be left alone. Alot of times things in the west are not what they seem on the surface.
Can't wait to blow up my garage with over pressured beer trying this
Me neither. But since I live in an apartment and don't have a garage, the only option seems to be blowing up my bathroom.
Use a friends garage for that.
Got a Vadim nearby? His garage would be a much better option.
If you put it in plastic soda bottles and you make sure to burp it regularly the chances of it exploding are not that high... Or get an airlock, which has 0% chance of exploding.
@@PwrTorch if youre interested in brewing your own beer most of the kits you buy will be glass for just the fermentation step, after a couple of days you bottle the beer and then add a little sugar to the bottles before capping them. thats the point where they can explode and they can absolutely explode scattering glass everywhere, i would 100% recommend keeping them in a box with a lid so when (and I say when because every time ive ever made beer ive always had at least one explode) the glass is contained and you dont have to clean up a huge very dangerous glass mess like have had to do (not in my bathroom, thankfully in my unfinished basement that I wear shoes to go down in anyways)
What was that? You’re in the shower? No. Get out. Boris has a new video.
I love the kitty so much. Hes so cute!
Here comes the classic: Two gopniks, one keg.

I love koerwa beer and gopnik barbeque and patato very much!
I started the video thinking, "It's a shame I'm allergic to hops and can't drink beer" and ended it cheering that I can make this one day!
If you can't drink beer due to an allergy just drink vodka!
Step one: put loaf of bread in cup.
Step two: pour this on top.
Step three: puncture co2 can below the water line.
Enjoy
There's a plant called alehoof a.k.a. creeping Charlie that is not only an invasive weed, but a clarifying, preserving, and bittering agent used as a hops substitute throughout history.
@@ΣπυρίδωνΔούκας Mugwort is also a viable hops alternative although I would think if one is allergic to hops you should do a skin test with mugwort before eating it.
@@themadscientest I think I might have to give that a try. Hops are difficult to grow where I live, and this mugwort seems even less water intensive.
