Today, getting what you need is as easy as a trip to the store. From food to clothing, energy, medicine, and so much more, Andy George will discover what it takes to make everything from scratch. His mission is to understand the complex processes of manufacturing that is often taken for granted and do it all himself. Each week he’s traveling the world to bypass the modern supply chain in order to harvest raw materials straight from the source. Along the way, he’s answering the questions you never thought to ask.

I really liked the guy showing you around. He was so knowledgeable and passionate and eager to share a small part of his knowledge with you (and in turn us). It was a joy to watch.
Exactly what I just thought! What a wonderful person!
he was adorable!
Best comment!!!!
Intelligent
Virgin America offers your videos on their flights. This is really high-quality
Awesome! I know we prepared some content for that propose, but never got any confirmation if it actually happened. Glad to know its actually there!
1:41 “all the foam, all deh *bobols* ”
My favorite part 😂
@Kurt Lamprecht umm how??
@Kurt Lamprecht eh, the guy has an accent...though I hear "bobols" as "boobles".
What amazes me is how fast he speaks English and the only mistakes are on his pronunciation. Racist??? I wouldn't think so!!!
Part 4 is me sitting and drinking tequila while saying "Man, I think Andy's job is cool."
Ew, bitter sour crap.
HeavenHammer tequila is good, you are just drinking subpar liquor
LMFAO
That guy was very well spoken and was very articulate in the way he shared his knowledge of the process.
the guy showing us around is a genius
I tasted anejo Tequilla and it cant be compared to the cheap "shot" one. It tasted more like a good scotch. Very mild and pleasant to drink. Awesome Video series!
Keep in mind, there is very good blanco and reposado tequila too. the cheap shot one would be bad even if it had been aged to an anejo tequila!
Maybe that's my problem. All the tequila I've had tasted like turpentine and gave me bad headaches. So, I hardly ever have it.
@@Nemo_Anom let me guess... Patron?
All tequila is mild and pleasant
I want to love something like that man loves tequila.
icampos89 nah fam I want someone to love me like that man loves tequila
Alright, you both have a good point. I want to love something like that man loves tequila, and I want someone to love me like that man loves tequila, and I want to love someone like that man loves tequila.
@@NotSoCrazyNinja I love lamp
You should all try weed man
Han Solo lamp
How has this channel not become more popular?
TimesScorpion7 it is now :)
Veruz Not enough though
Rhinopocalypes still an improvement
Veruz True
you should do cigars
Zabuza Momochi why u hate Haku?
Loved it man, you're making awesome content.
xBeau Gaming Beau I love your videos and how to make everything's videos, thanks for the eyegasm
That guy seemed awesome.
Zac Gorenc just a business man. Don't think to far into it.
Donovan Fulton Not really, personally he’s passionate about what he does I don’t think he’s worrying about what money goes into his pockets like your version of “business men”.
ToastyCarrot went over your head.
I really love how this guy talked about tequila. I enjoy my tequila either straight or in a whiskey glass with ice and splash of lime. That depends on the quality of course. I've had tequilas that have been like motor oil and others that taste like caramel or oaky and although both are good the latter are much more enjoyable. Also yes! For cocktails use the bottom shelf stuff. The expensive stuff should be savoured. Like you'd never use an aged scotch in a whiskey and Coke. Don't do the same with añejo tequila
This is my opinion:
I think you might want to upload episodes weekly, if you finished your project, to keep viewers interested so they stick to the channel. RUclips's algorithm also likes schedules, so keeping a schedule for a project is good. That may not be possible for every project you have but if you're finished with one I think you should put the episodes up on a weekly basis and not just upload all of it straight to RUclips. I understand that this suggestion may not be possible but it's worth a shot.
I really want this channel to grow because it shows potential to make the best of the best in terms of documentaries. I mean it already is one of the best in my opinion.
Thanks for the input, we've been experimenting with our format some. These brewing episodes were all originally intended to all be single self-contained episodes. People responded really strongly to the Wheat Beer one and being able to watch the entire processes in one video, however it got lower than average views, likely because it was a longer than average video. That's why we split this one into three parts, to see if that would help attract more viewers, but still made the full series available all at once.
We were attempting to do weekly releases before, but producing that much content at the higher production quality we aim for was killing us. Especially since we are making almost nothing off this.
We'll be announcing a new format soon that we're hoping will work a lot better with the RUclips medium then how we've been doing it so far.
I wish all the best to your endevour. I love seeing the making of things and going so far back on the production line (growing your crops, processing etc...all by yourself) made me appreciate even more the things I can buy readily at the stores.
Great job! I'm already spreading knowledge of the channel among my friends who share my interest for how things are made
Shannariano Thanks!
i think you just need to be patient and the subscriptions and viewers will follow. i've enjoyed all the content you've put out and it looks like you at least have fun doing it even though you might not be making too much currently. hang in there. it's good stuff.
How To Make Everything Seriously I have so much appreciation for the content you put out, it's truly unique and fascinating to watch ❤
Definitely, I have a lot more appreciation for tequila, so thanks for showing me everything Andy.
I love a quality reposado! This video is so educational about how the noble, humble agave becomes fine complex tequila
It's meaningful because it's their culture, it's their live. It's really a part of their soul. When things are so hands on, so everyday, all around you, that's meaningful.
Good quality tequila is so very expensive in the middle east, but now and then I indulge my self with a bottle of Herradura tequila or Don Julio tequila. But my go to tequila is El Jimador which is 100 % agave and good quality tequila.
I love how the guy described the way some other tequila makers make theirs but refused to say what most people in his position would say that "they make it this way and we make it this way which is why ours is better" he just said they are different
im really curious since there is not exact limit to how long you can let in sit in the barrel i wonder what the oldest tequila they have or have seen or tasted
I like the way he says bubbles
Awesome Content!! I wish this " How To Brew Everything" series was longer (per episode) and more in depth. I would rather watch stuff like this, thane regular T.V. Your perspective as a new brewer is relatable, but your leg work is unique and highly valuable! Please extend this series. There is much to discover about the fermentation/distilling/brewing process. I've been a subscriber for a long time, I love this channel. Great job!
That tequila maker is the coolest guy ever, he really made the video great.
Great video to educate people on Tequila. It is really supposed to be sipped and enjoyed with respect.
Showing some love for his burned shop. Give the brother a like so he can continue to make content. Good stuff here.
It's amazing that there are some tequilas out there that are so cheap when there is such a process to making the stuff!
It's because producers can legally sell 51% tequila and 49% anything else and call it tequila
And that would explain why they're so terrible! Thank you ;)
I don't drink much but man do I want this
My friend recently went to Cancun and I really love tequila so I told him to pick me up a kind that we don't have in the states (Michigan - at least to my knowledge). So he got me a bottle of Antiguo, I got so excited when I saw it on the distillers hat, currently on a buzz from it right now, cheers!
This video makes me want tequila
The Herradura brand is hard to come by, but worth it if you can. Patron is excellent and its widely available.
This is a beautiful video, love the way that guy showed you around!
I think he truly enjoys doing it himself far more than watching how others do it. Like don't get me wrong he likes this too but he is a doer
If I ever get the chance to go over to Mexico, I would like to mix with the locals. They're so passionate and humble.
This guy should collaborate with Lewis Dartnell from "The Knowledge: How to Rebuild Civilization in the Aftermath of a Cataclysm"
+ThisIsNot AnAlias working on it!
Oh my God that would be amazing
I love watching you show people to now what people do for a living and show us to apreshete thing that be take for granted
Make a video about dutch cheese?
I would actually kinda like to see that.
Nee liever niet
Cheese is really easy to make
I just subscribed to your channel! Such interesting projects.
I loved how he was so passionate about everything surrounding the production of tequila.
The message he wanted to send or has reached another person!
Thank you for you videos and keep up the amazing work!
New found respect for tequila :) I really want to see more people following your videos man they are amazing!
This was such a good seires that guy was so knowledgeable it was beautiful to see someone so passionate about his job
I enjoy watching the videos so much that I forget to hit the thumbs up. So I'll go back and do that now. Awesome series.
Nice video, I personally own agave fields in the Tequila community and have family that work for the Herradura, Orendain, Sauza and Cuervo Tequileras, Angel is great, top notch on his field, this is a nice little town..I go over once or twice a year,,,but not during their summers, is to hot and not enough air conditioners...
This was awesome !!!!!! He knows everything from A-Z
i like how he said bubble.i was expexting andy to fall in though.ps i liked the vid
Nice video! Although they did not show the diffuser used to make their other products such as Jimador and Antigua.
Wow the passion you put into this channel is just insane. Awesome work man.
Really good tequila is just like really good burbon. Craft distileries are ten times better than the giants. This was a very well produced video series. I love burbon. But my mommas a true texican. I love tequilla too. ❤❤❤❤
This guy should have over 10 million subs
Jalisiense here. I think that the best tequilas are tapatio. Herradura and jose cuervo. They are the best i have tried.
He should really try to make whiskey! That would be really interesting!
Such a passionate man.
i never drank tequila the same again. waht was once a shot is now a mouthful of flavor.
Keep up the good work, I would love to see longer and more detailed episodes.
I just love the smell of tequila, so I can imagine how GOOD that liquor brewing must have smelled! 😋😋
Not to be a Debby downer or anything but this method of tequila making is not super traditional and is somewhat frowned upon by the tequila/mezcal "professionals". For mezcal, fermentation is traditionally done in wooden barrels and some people get triggered when people use metal barrels and newer tools and stuff. Great video though, it still hit some cool points about the whole process :-p
i guess the wooden barrel fermentation would lead to a much lesser yield than the metal vats, which would in turn produce less tequila and raise the price of it a lot more. but i bet it’s very good, like using wooden barrels for whisky or something like that.
amazing videos, a lot of good and new informations. just... thank you
j just got into the art of tequila. ..this was a great video
Man, this made me wish I wasn't allergic to the agave plant. The guy was so knowledgeable, and it was so obvious how happy he was to show everything and how to make it.
Unfortunately, i like breathing too much to drink tequila.
Maybe you could do a how to make an instrument (maybe a guitar or lyre) making the wooden frame, wood stain, catgut strings, and even use your book to write the music down with, just an idea.
He was so informative. Thanks for sharing!
Uploading more doesn't have to mean filming more.. There must be a ton of footage you cut out. Ideally you should upload a video every day. You deserve way more subs
Don't actually think I've actually tasted anejo, but this interesting process makes me want to give it a shot.
I'd recommend it, this was the first time I'd had añejo tequila and I was surprised how good it was.
I live in Guadalajara, Jalisco, so take my advise, there is also good brands and sub-brands of Tequila, añejo is always better than blanco or reposado, but a good brand añejo is far better, for brands I recomend Don Julio, Maestro Tequilero or 1800 brands, taste that añejos and you will like them a lot.
+How To Make Everything
I love the first few videos you made because they really emphasized the concept of How to make everything "from scratch". That was what really made your channel really unique and interesting. But I guess, there was a shift away from the concept of "from scratch" and the though the later videos were still nice, they did not deliver the same excitement and interest as your earlier videos.
Perhaps viewers are sadistic and love to see how you spent so much money and effort to make a sandwich which tastes horrible? ;)
Yeah, what attracted me to this channel was the "from scratch" theme. I'm okay with the occasional deviation from that, but I'd hate to lose it completely.
Fantastic series guys. Looking forward to the next episode, cheers!
You guys should sign up for Tad. It is a way for viewers to give money, without actually having to give money, but instead they just watch ads.
I feel this distillers pain about tequila abuse. I once went to a new years party with an 80 dollar bottle of 2 year old anejo, and about an hour in found people pounding it with the lemon and salt reserved for motor fuel grade tequila. I was...upset. Those people aren't my friends anymore.
Man, I love this channel. I watch every video as soon as it's uploaded. I've shared your stuff, and it's a shame this channel isn't more popular. Good stuff. I think subtitles are needed for your guide, though. He was informative and spoke pretty good english, but he spoke it really fast which made it hard to understand at points. Good stuff though, regardless. Can't say I'm a fan of Tequila, but this was still super cool to watch. Thanks!!
Thanks for sharing our videos! I think we're still in the process of figuring out how to make our format work best on RUclips, so hopefully once we figure it out we'll start getting more traction.
I debated back and forth on the subtitles, since I feel like he's understandable 90% of the time, but there's definitely a few points it gets difficult.
I wasn't a fan of tequila before we shot this, but now I am. Definitely made me appreciate it more now.
Maybe the optional subtitles for people if they're struggling to understand the accent.
Do you know what the red spots are on the agave?
I think they're like bruises on apples.
I believe that's a sign of ripeness of the agave and that it's ready to be harvested, like a banana turning yellow.
so why do people do the lime and salt? is it tradition or something new?
The salt and lime are used to help mask the taste of poor quality tequila. It supposedly dates back to the late 19th-century when tequila started to become more popular and a bunch of lower quality tequilas flooded the market.
ah ok cool
Lol, HTME comment has more likes than yours
Great video! But why did you break this into these short videos? I wanted to see more of Mexico and the people who were working there :)
Well done.
You should do tea next than brew kombucha wd we love to see that process
Can you give details step of process after harvesting agve??
Tequila Herradura is the best tequila hands down
Thank you for sharing this video this is very informative
So good!!
so what's your opinion of Casamigos Tequila? I think it's pretty decent so far. I got the agave azul version it's blanco
Can you do the same thing with pineapple?
Despite looking pretty similar agave and pineapple aren't that closely related, so it probably wouldn't turn out that similar. However like any sugary substance, pineapples can and have been turned into alcoholic beverages before. "Tepache" is a traditional Mexican fermented drink made from pineapples.
How To Make Everything
Oh wow, that's cool. Thanks a lot for replying. I really enjoy this show
Great videos with amazing content
I love your vids man keep doing what your doing.
Love this channel
How to make a bed?
Imagine being on top of that fermenting chambers then you accidentslly drop a bit of your saliva. 😂😂😂
Back to square one then bois.
Who thinks he should do Phõ?

Thanks for this video!
Man had a awesome beard
Fantastic
That Mexican guy is sooooo handsome! OMG!
amazing!
I like tequila i love mexicooo🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽
at the end, did he say NOT to use good tequila for margaritas? I had a hard time understanding him and the CC isnt correct.
He said to NOT use tequila añejo for cocktails or drinks becouse its a waste
Using anejo for margaritas is like using 20 year old scotch to make a whiskey cola.
"boobles"....he he he
Will this series have an episode about brazillian cachaça?
I would love to do an episode on it, if we ever have the budget to travel to Brazil.
Well I hope so!
How do you have this level of production value and aren't all broke.
Wait a minute! Isn't this channel great?! How come they have less than 500 likes for this one??? Talk to Casey Neistat ASAP... he's working for CNN now and this is great content!!
Since a teen i always wanted to make my own tequila...i have Agave plant in my yard...no one knows what it is.
Once my parents and grandma had chocolate tequila
distilation is not chemical process its phisical process
I don’t understand how the Aztecs discovered this
Why only let it ferment for 3 days to 6%. Id let it go for 2 weeks and get to 14%
Hm!
