    Love it. Thats what home brewing should be about. Do it your own system. Not buying a 2000$ system pushing 2 buttons and call it a day.

    We live that boujee lifestyle and use one of those food prep services, food in a box through the mail (what a world).
    They keep the food cold by using these plastic bag freezer packs, and there's normal 2 or 3 in the box.
    I keep about 20~ of them in my brew fridge/freezer and use them in place of ice, and just toss any broken ones.

    I use old plastic carboys and 5gal plastic water jugs to store grain. To fill them up I use a funnel. Its so easy to weigh grain no scoops, just pour from the jug/carboy.

    Love your content, keep up the good work. My favorite episode is the creamicle IPA one.

However, I like to review it every 6 months or so and I admire and appreciate how in depth and intuitive it really is whilst being relatable and entertaining. Sending love from down under bro :)

    When I was new to kegging. I didn’t use a hose clamp and the beer line popped off in the night and pumped 5 gallons of my hard earned brew into my fridge and all over the garage floor 🤣 sucked balls. I use the ones with finger tightening grips now for ease of use. Some lessons are hard learned.

  • @scottnieradka6836
    @scottnieradka6836 3 года назад +1

    I like the oetiker clamps better than the worm hose clamps. Yeah you have to buy a 20$ crimp tool, but the clamps are cheaper and they make a nice seal and never loosen. The amount of times ive slipped and stabbed myself with a flathead trying to tighten a wet worm hose clamp inside a kegerator, or a keg that just went flat cause a hose clamp somehow decided to loosen itself.... the oetiker tool is worth it.

    • @hubb412
      @hubb412 3 года назад +1

      the only problem would be the trub / sediment from the yeast in the fermenter and the challenge of adding your priming sugar. I imagine if you're REALLY careful and use tablets for priming you could pull it off. If you're careful about your transfer into a bottling bucket you'll minimize o2 exposure. Recommend kegging as quickly as you can afford it.
