Sipping on a can of Asylum by Left Coast. The best Belgian Triple I’ve ever had. Yes GO ANGELS!!!!
Welcome to the 240V club man!! I definitely recommend a pulley for that grain basket. Cheers!
Already ordered! That basket is a beast!!!
Looks awesome! Sweet garage makeover!
Awesome dude! I love my system. The 240v should definitely speed things up compared to mine.
Love your videos! But damn, you were the almost last BrewTuber not on the clawhammer system ;)
Love your Garage setup though! Great job and now feel intrigued to do a Kölsch😊
This round of the WBC has been the best of all of them.
I see that you are a baseball cap fan. What's your favorite cap design? Mine favs are: New Zealand, Curacao, Cuba, and the number one was the China cap.
Cubas is cool for sure!!! I like team Mexicos away uniforms too!!!
I love my Clawhammer 20 gallon system too! Great video and that's a delicious looking beer. cheers to the makeover!
I've had my eye on this kit so it was nice to see someone try it out, and what made it even better was when you decided to brew a Kölsch. Yum. My #1 style!
Cheers 🍻
Love mine
Always love your videos braj. Looking forward to seeing more from your improved brewery
Nice looking system. You can get your wort cooled down to pitching temps in one pass through your chiller? I need to recirculate through a counter flow chiller for a few minutes to get to pitching temps. Anyway, congrats on the upgrade. I think you’ll love brewing on a electric system.
Winter ground water temps…68 F, straight from kettle to fermenter. Now when summer hits it’s going to be a different story, probably need to recirculate for a bit.
I am new to homebrewing but I am a mechanic at a soda plant and when we have a gasket that does like yours on your fermentation tank we put just a tiny bit of food grade lube on the back just enough to hold it in place. That might help. Great video always enjoy your stuff
I’ve got some keg lube and I’m brewing again today. I’ll give it a shot!!! Thanks for watching, cheers 🍻
Nice! I still haven't brewed a Kosch. Clawhammer system looking great! Cheers!
Kölsch is good, I’m sure you’d like it!!! Cheers 🍻
Cheers! Thanks for sharing!
Great video, I have the 110v clawhammer system and enjoy it very much. One day I plan to get that 240v controller as the heat times Im sure are closer to what you get from a propane burner. One of the things I like to do is run the thermometer on the out spigot while I mash just to double check that the controller and mash temp are sthe same. Also by turning the flow down on the pump as you cool will get you much better cooling temps. I believe Martin Keine did a side by side with the exchilerator and ate chiller abouta month ago that I found very helpful. You should also try a kettle sour now that you can hold higher temps for a steady time, it would make a great video. Thanks for all the great content!
Cheers
Oh yeah buddy welcome to the Clawhammer fam! I think you'll have a lot of fun brewing on it. And that shirt looks awesome on you!
For sure!! Shirt is super nice quality! I need to pick your brain on where you get yours done!!!
Great video. That claw hammer system is bad ass.
I have that same Northern Brewer fermenter and I have the same issues, every time. Watch out for the cheap gaskets as well.
Ya it took some fiddling and replacing of the o ring on the sample port as well but once I upgraded those I had no real issues.
Garage is looking great Brian! That table and Clawhammer supply system add a lot!
Once you go electric you won’t want to go back. Cheers!
Ya it’s been pretty sweet!! I love that I don’t need to babysit while it on. Set it and forget it right 🤣 Cheers 🍻
I use a screen on my system and the pulley is the only way to go for pulling it out. Couple of guys in the Brewtubers have the Clawhammer and they love it. Love the video. Sláinte
Thanks! Ya I have since got the Kegland pulley and it works fantastic! And so far the Clawhammer system is super rad!!!
Definitely going to need to move your pulley system over for that grain basket! If you are confident in your cleat securement you may even be able to skip the “hooks” for the grain basket completely. What an ending to that game last night! My girlfriend even woke me up before my night shift after the grand slam. Cheers and happy Sunday!
My boys and I lost it on the grand slam!! That was pretty sweet!!! Cheers 🍻
Brewing your cream ale today!!
I’m looking at getting the claw hammer supply 240v system also.
Brew bucket is the way to go!!
That cream ale is good!!! One of my favs for sure!! Cheers 🍻
Love the hat, go Halos
Great video brother! Would be interested to hear your thoughts on brewing with propane versus 240V electric system. I've been a garage-propane-brewer my entire career lol. Cheers 🍻
Stepping up the electric brewing game! Also, nice new garage set up.
Thanks Beast!!! I’m digging the new set up so far!!!!
Great video! I have the same system and have found that I can lower the plate chiller wort out temperature by reducing the flow with the kettle out valve, allowing the wort more heat transfer time in the plate chiller. Hope it works for you too. 🍻
Yeah, I haven’t messed with it too much yet but that makes sense! Thanks!!!
Dude loving the new setup! I love seeing my beer in your fridge haha! Too left, probably the last ones left in the world hahah
For sure!!! They’re good, not going to be around much longer 🤣 Cheers 🍻
Love the upgrades. What’s the tune at the one minute mark?! Cheers!
Where there differences in efficiency when switching systems?
I knew my old system very well and was getting great efficiency. I am still figuring out this new system and did see a drop in efficiency with it but I’m sure once I get it dialed in it will improve. I think my old, used grain mill needs updating too and would help with efficiency as well, cheers 🍻
Not trying to be "that guy". Just trying help you out.
Think maybe a little keg lube, on the gasket, would help hold it to lid some?
I’ll try that next!!! Thanks and cheers 🍻
Hey, this 240v controller has a built in GFCI is it necessary to add a GFCI breaker?
Did the finger in the fermenter add any flavor? )heh)
Enjoyed the video
🤣🤣 at least I sanitized right?!? Cheers 🍻
There is no information here at all. Good marketing video for CH, but still no 90 bend on that inlet lid. How’s the CH system positively differentiated from any other ebrew system?
Where did you get that brew table?
Amazon! It was one of the Amazon essentials, cheapest I found and works great!!!
The basket system on the clawhammer system is an accident waiting to happen in my opinion. Otherwise seems to be a decent system. Maybe a bit over priced for most homebrewers. Just an opinion. Good video bro!
Ya, I can see that!! Cheers Curt 🍻
The modularity of it is nice, but yeah they definitely need to update the basket and kettle to be like every other AIO system with the simple lift and twist. The hooks are a boneheaded design choice IMO
Send me your other brew kettle
Nooooo! How dare you! You were the last of my propane buddy. Wait, I guess there is still the old school guys in Minnesota. Lol.
Just kidding btw, the new brewery looks amazing. That 240v system seems very smooth. Very happy for you.
Cheers!
I know, I know, not getting rid of anything though! I’m sure I’ll still use it!!! Cheers 🍻
