Great to see you back. You were the first homebrew channel that I subscribed to. One thing, it was difficult to hear you on occasion. Hope it is ok saying that. Looking forward to more brew days 😀
Nice to see the trusty BM still going strong in the new brewery, which looks amazing btw 🍻 I need a new pH tool with better temperature correction, the one you use at 07:24 - is that the Milwaukee MW102 PRO+ ? It seems to do what I need and a lot faster than my current pH meter, which is also limited to 60°C.
Hello Glen from Tasmania Australia where it is 'minus 14C' '-14C' mid winter down here and it is a cold one, if you want crystal clear beer try Biofine in your kegs, I pulled out the dip tubes and replaced them with floating dip tubes so it draws beer from the top of the keg, 30ml of biofine mixed in the top of the beer in the keg and your beer will be crystal clear in 24 hours, biofine is much better than Gelatin too
Thank you Glenn for another great video. Like you I have now puchased a Grainfather mill and I am very pleased with the crush. I tried setting 5 initially but a much better result for me in my Speidel BRAUMEISTER was the number 6 setting. I notice you are not using your BAC Brewing plates. Did you have a reason for not using them. I love your fermenter, it makes everything very easy. Cheers mate keep up the great videos.
Hi, great video, congratulations. One question, how can I find a crane like the one you use to lift the bagasse? Is it purchased or did you build it yourself? Thank you very much!
Great job. One question, did you pressurize during initial fermentation or did it pressurize organically through the fermentation process? If not, when did you add the C02? Thank you. Btw, I also purchased the F80 and love it but it is having trouble keeping 2 bar. It drops to 1.5 bar and stays there.
Hi! Thanks for the kind comment. The CO2 is added by the fermentation process it self. I don’t add CO2 during fermentation (I don’t know this is the right way) sadly to hear your fermenter is leaking gas, probably the big seal on the lid… but why these high pressure? For carbonation? I ferment with much lower pressure 😄 Cheers mate 🍻
@@homebeerbrewery thank you for the quick response. The 2 bar was part of a recipe I tried. I agree 2 bar is not needed. One of my professional brewer friends told me to actually keep the spunding valve open during initial fermentation and close it after FG has been reached. He then puts about 1.5bar of pressure into the tank to speed up secondary. Cheers and thanks again for your awesome videos.
I use a whirlfloc tablet 10 min left on the boil, after cooling just let the trub settle on bottom. Result is Cristal clear wort right to pump out the normal spigot or ball valve, I tilt te BM a bit and when the wort isn’t clear at the very end I stop the transfer. Works for me. 🍻 cheers
So, how is the BM vs B80, just press the button and done? :) I think it's still makes sense to use the BM for easy brews regardless of some comments. I have the newer version with the cooling jacket incorporated within the BM and also a wort pumping device, so I can use less external tools.
Adding oxygen after just splashing the wort into the fermenter it’s not necessary to add more oxygen us using dry yeast right of the package. When reused, after harvesting it’s necessary for sure but even after minimal doing it I had great results in the past. Not with this fermenter, BT sells a “oxygenation kit” for it but again, not necessary for most of the dry yeast. Cheers 🍻
@@homebeerbrewery yeah I've never had major issues and I usually don't re-use yeast but after a Bohemian Pilsner of mine turned out a bit too sweet, I considered buying an aeration kit for my Miniuni. That would also allow me to brew big beers like Barkey Wines which I love.
Happy to have you back! Happy you're happy to be brewing again.
Gotta catch up on your latest vids..🇺🇸🍻🇺🇸
Thanks for the kind comment, cheers from NL 😉🍺🍺🍺🍺
There is just something so satisfying seeing the good old braumeister in work
Indeed 🤭
It's great to see you again Glenn. Awesome looking pilsner. Cheers!
Nice to see you back Glenn. Your videos were how I started AG brewing and I still have my BM20. Your audio was very low on this video sadly.
I know about the audio troubles, it’s the ventilation hood. Will try something different next time. Cheers and thanks for the comment! 🍺
Man I wish we could smell through the internet because I imagine that brewery smells amazing on brew day
Over the years, thats stuck with me; “nothing is better than a good homebrew”!! Too right man, agreed 🍻 #insta

1st. class Glenn, great set up, thanks!
A very well deserved brew! Lovely work. Most impressed with the fermenter , the scales! and the waste dump.

BM is a awesome machine! The PH meter is indeed a Milwaukee MW102 PRO+ 2-in-1 pH and Temperature Meter with ATC. Cheers 🍻
Great video! You sir are a class act.
Very impressive new brewery!
I love this videos! Greetings from Argentina!
Dream setup Glen

Thanks for all the good advice! Cheers 🍺
Thanks for sharing ... nice brew day. ... No need for 90min boil tho, I do 30min even with Pilsner malt ... no issues 😉
I often hear about the short boil times, will give it a try next brewday for sure. Thanks for the advice! Cheers

Thank you for the kind comment! The crane is made by Brewtools , you can search for “troll” on their website. Cheers

Thanks for the Video 👍. I use Braumeister 20l. How do you filter the wort from the hops before pumping into the fermenter?
I use a whirlfloc tablet 10 min left on the boil, after cooling just let the trub settle on bottom. Result is Cristal clear wort right to pump out the normal spigot or ball valve, I tilt te BM a bit and when the wort isn’t clear at the very end I stop the transfer. Works for me. 🍻 cheers

Magnificent video. I would like to know where you got the stainless steel coil to cool the wort.
thank you and greetings.
Thanks you, the immersion chiller is custom made and not for sale anywhere unfortunately 😔 Cheers and thanks for the kind comment.
You have a fabulous brewing space mate. Interested to learn why you bought a B80 when you had a BM capable of similar sizes?
I purchased the Brewtools B80 just to explore the system, love it but can’t sell the good Braumeister as well 😉 Cheers
@@homebeerbrewery I'd love your job, it must pay very well - you have some beautiful gear (not too mention brewery).
@DrunkDelilahBrewery I am just good in saving money, and remember I always sell stuff again after use. My job pays well but nothing special 😉 Cheers
@@homebeerbrewery 🤣🤣🤣 - Teach me how to save !!! lol. Nice work.
No more B80?
Yes I still own the B80, just a batch with the BM again 😋
How do you oxigenate the wort?
Nicely done brew by the way. Nothing beats a fresh homebrew made with this level of care.
Adding oxygen after just splashing the wort into the fermenter it’s not necessary to add more oxygen us using dry yeast right of the package. When reused, after harvesting it’s necessary for sure but even after minimal doing it I had great results in the past.
