Thank you for keeping this HOMEBREW FRIENDLY!!!! most people dont want to spend thousands of dollars on equipment for this, and with a little bit of tools and work, this is amazing.
I kinda lost track of this channel and homebrewing in general when I became a Brewer. It's odd, I stopped brewing at home altogether when I started doing it as a job. Something wrong there. So here I am, checking back in, putting on playlists in the background while I ez mode brews on my Anvil. I love the channel, glad I rediscovered it. Slainte!
Good tip get a cheap aquarium pump and make a little recirculation system in a plastic tub with ice, it would ensure the water is always cool instead of warm from the tap
Great video! The way you explained the process as well as some of the reasons why you were doing certain things really helped me. I stopped and started it so many times just to make sure I had everything down. Really well done and much appreciated.
This was the video that got me into making beer. I heard chrono trigger and said; "hell yes.." the rest is history. Thanks for all the inspiration dude!
I got an all-grain IPA kit from my local brew shop by accident (instead of malt extract) and came here to figure it out. Great fucking video! Clear explanations and makes it feel possible to step-up my game. Thanks!
I have probably rewatched this video 5 times now, all of my ingredients just arrived and I will be brewing my first batch today or tomorrow. Thanks for the video!
One suggestion to keep your beer clearer; find a way to organize your "brewery" such that, once you set you primary and/or secondary fermenters in their temp controlled location, you do not have to move them again to rack them. This will keep the beer much clearer. The final rack bucket with priming sugar in it, can be...needs to be, moved up higher for gravity filling, but it no longer matters about moving this bucket about. I do realize that things are done a little bit different for demonstration purposes ;-)
Have been brewing 1 gallon batches and time to scale up, been watching your videos all day yesterday and today. Awesome video and I’ll be using your Amazon links to get all the supplies!
Thanks for the good info on all grain brewing. I've been doing extract for almost a year now and considering upgrading to all grain but wasn't sure if it was a big step or a little step. Now I am sure that it is something I want to do and I feel like I finally have a decent road map on what extra equipment I need and how to go about it.
Dude, why don't you have more likes?! lol. I'm sure you'll have more. I brewed my first all grain yesterday and found your video today. I almost felt like throwing every f**king thing through the f**king basement window sticking my head in the washing machine on spin f**king cycle!! If you're watching this, guy who I bought the system from, you know who you are! Any way, glad you're here. I even thought about making my own video, before I saw your's, still might, but you explain it all. You can't tell someone how to brew all grain beer in a 3 f**king minute video! I'm venting this morning. I have to pitch my yeast, the temp is down, and I found out I could let it set for 24 hours, although that's NOT what I wanted to do. I'll let you know how the beer turns out. There a LOT of "Pre-sh*t" you need to know before jumping into brewing!! People don't know that. They only find out like I did and wish they had stuck with drinking PBR and watching cartoons! I'd like to make a video about THAT! Or maybe you can. The "Non-anal" home brewer. Dude, you don't need a F**KING science degree to make beer!! It's meant to be a fun, communal experience that you do over, improve and pass on to your offspring. Wow, glad I got that off my chest. I've subscribed to you man. thanks!
i just discovered your channel. I'm just getting into homebrew, love your vibe and teaching method. But most of all, I love your choice of music. I heard Chrono Trigger in there, nice touch!
Thank you for sharing this video, I really enjoyed it and thought you were very nice and interesting and I actually was able to learn from you. Thanks again, God bless you
A couple of months ago I started thinking I might want to make a counterflow wort chiller one day. And I got to thinking what I might do with my coil chiller. I thought, hey, I'll put it in a bucket of ice and run water through it before it hits the counterflow chiller! I felt like a friggin' genius. And you've already beaten me to the punch.
Watching this, a pretty cheap trick you could use to improve the effectiveness of your Ice-side is to add a good amount of salt to the bucket too. This is a bartender's trick to rapidly chill something. The salt will drop the freezing point of the water to somewhere below zero, so it will stay a liquid colder (this is why they put salt on roads in winter in some places). The added minerals (salt) also improved the heat conducting properties of the water. So the end result is a mixture in the bucket than can get colder AND can carry away the heat even better.
Awesome. I am just waiting for a few things to arrive in the mail before I start my first homebrew. I am excited to do this and your videos have been super helpful.
Listen bros I pounded a few to many home brews last night and recommended everyone in the home brew Reddit page to your channel. This can be a blessing or a curse.
Great video! Here's a suggestion: for the water inlet and outlet of the wort chiller, you should bend those away from the top of the boil kettle so even if there is a leak, they just drip on the ground instead in the wort. looks like you have plenty of slack to work with.
Hello sir. I'm a stupid beginner brewer. And of course your new subscriber🙌🙌🙌🙌. I love your clean & Clear description. I'm gonna make with your recipe. I can't find some stuff like specially beer yeast, or liquid yeast or grade one hops in my country. But I do my best Thanks for every thing Googi from Iran✌
I'm rewatching this video and noticed that between this video and the "Do's and Don't of Brewing" video you now no longer suggest having people over on brew day. LOL I can only imagine how many brew days turned into drinking days. Keep up the good work. Your videos kick ass!
I don't have friends the brew or drink craft beer so all of my brew days are a solo brew. Brew days are already busy, so why complicate things with other people.
Great tutorial. BTW, you can make your starsan last MUCH longer by using SPRAY bottle for most sanitation, and just a cup of mixed Starsan occasionally for shaking up in carboys, fermenters and kegs. Also, using distilled water, it doesn't go 'bad'. I think I confirmed this years ago w/ a staff person at the company that makes it.
Just a cool idea that i use for the chiller, if you dont have a 2nd chiller, take a 25 ft fountain pump ($20 home depot/lowes) you can cycle the ice water through the chiller and recycle the water back to the ice water and it will melt some, but it i found that it works pretty effeciently.
i watched your 'last video forever' vid and i wanted to come on your most recent vid and comment. i found your channel tonight because i was looking up brew stuff and the youtube ai was nice enough to show me your stuff. love you guys and the humor. i binge watched all your stuff tonight so i subscribed and am looking forward to seeing your new stuff if you feel like making it :P or whatever live your life.
Wonderfully explained bro!! This is best video.. I have only one Qs - after your wort is ready you kept it open especially when outside. I was more worried looking at it in case something falls in 🤪... Just curious should you usually close the lid while wort is cooling to 75/80 deg?
Awesome vid man. Much thanks. Side note, I use a cooler to hold sanitizer as I can fit a 5 or 6 gallon carboy in it and roll it aroundto get sanitize. Plus easy to sanitize all the other equipment
My well is over 100ft deep. After i run through whats in my pressure tank and water conditioner its always 55 degrees, even in august. In winter i have about 20 gallons in the tanks sitting between 35 and 45, depending on what it is outside.
Just watched one of your later videos where you say glass carboys suck. Had a little laugh watching you ferment in one in this video. Clearly early on huh? ;) You guys rock!
Right! After moving so much it’s just finding everything. I left my super fancy pink 2 tier system at my parents for storage years ago. I have a plate chiller and a chugged pump but I can’t find my old copper wort chiller lol. Just placing the old pieces together
Just got my AG kit, never brewed before. But I wanna do this shit right. Have a huge interest in barrel aged beers, gonna order me some 5 gal oak, and used bourbon barrels as soon as they are ready. Can't wait to start making some sours, and BA beers.

I am fortunate enough to have a deep freezer. I put my cooling pipes in a bucket, fill it with water and put the bucket in the freezer to create a massive block of ice. I fill a container with water and use a 7000 liter water submerable pump and recirculate the water. The block of ice struggles to melt because of the size, this way it cools down beer quicker than you can say "cold beer"
Hey man! Really enjoy the content! Looking into to whole grain brewing jjsy curious if you needed some sort of rubber washer or anything in-between the the valves from the orange coolers to keep everything from getting in between the walls? Thanks again for all the information!
CH, I have a boil kettle and all the parts laying around to add a temp gauge and ball valve to it. Anything I need to watch out for before drilling a couple holes in this thing? Will gaskets work or do I need to look into welding on a nut like you got? Thanks braj
Thanks so much for the awesome and inspiring videos. Worked my way through the equipment list, got any tips for saving $$$ on Hot Liquor tanks? Here in Hawaii a HD cooler is $60 and another ball valve is like $18. Mahalo! PS. I promise to buy one of your badass shirts once I finish my all grain setup.
I stoped spargeing like that years ago. Just dump all the water in at once. stir well. Leave sit for 5-10 min, then circulate til wort is clear. and drain. Tada. No it does not give anything bad to the wort. Most of the sugars are converted by right temp the first 10 min of mashing.
HB4L just put out a water treatment video. However, i would suggest using water adjustment calculators like the one on brewersfriend.com or use the bru'n water spreadsheet found by googleing bru'n water.
@@HOMEBREW4LIFE Guys - can you do something with culturing yeast from like Sierra Nevada Celebration or Stone IPA? (and BTW, the force carbonation vid.... OMG I L'dMFAO on the "taking a dump" statement... effing classic..) I also really appreciate the fact that you are showing cost savings ideas - like the sparge and oxy.... The excessive costs are really what has prevented me from leaping to All Grain.... but your all gran vid has me "re-cataloging" everything for another go....
Yo James. It's possible but I've never really done it. Most large commercial brewery beers are filtered to the point that there is zero living yeast left in the bottle
Been brewing many years and now going back to all grain. Question? is it practical to mash and extract the wort one day and heat say to 180F and cover overnight. Then next day boil and finish? It will make two 3 hour days rather than one 6+ for me an older guy with time. Waddaya think?
I have brewed a few batches in the past two months it’s been great! I just filmed my self and made a channel last week about brewing! Trying to stay busy during Covid
Great vid mate. I used to brew a lot of different beers when I lived in the UK but now living in Thailand I cannot get the ingredients needed, plus (more importantly) it is illegal to make home brew here :( However, I do engage in making good red wine from a local dry tasting red berry (which has a long name which eludes me) and a good wine yeast I bring back from the UK when I visit :P
It's a rare gift to be able to explain things in such a way that fancy lingo becomes english & you don't come across as condescending. thanks

@@HOMEBREW4LIFE Guys - can you do something with culturing yeast from like Sierra Nevada Celebration or Stone IPA? (and BTW, the force carbonation vid.... OMG I L'dMFAO on the "taking a dump" statement... effing classic..) I also really appreciate the fact that you are showing cost savings ideas - like the sparge and oxy.... The excessive costs are really what has prevented me from leaping to All Grain.... but your all gran vid has me "re-cataloging" everything for another go....
Yo James. It's possible but I've never really done it. Most large commercial brewery beers are filtered to the point that there is zero living yeast left in the bottle
HOMEBREW 4 LIFE Go for it man!! And post all failures 😉.
Been brewing many years and now going back to all grain. Question? is it practical to mash and extract the wort one day and heat say to 180F and cover overnight. Then next day boil and finish? It will make two 3 hour days rather than one 6+ for me an older guy with time. Waddaya think?
Anybody else getting into home brewing now that we're all on lockdown?
YUP!!!
Yep!
I have brewed a few batches in the past two months it’s been great! I just filmed my self and made a channel last week about brewing! Trying to stay busy during Covid

Cheers tim!
0:19 Is that the secret ingredient you pulled out of your "back pocket"? 🤣
Cool cool cool!
Great vid mate. I used to brew a lot of different beers when I lived in the UK but now living in Thailand I cannot get the ingredients needed, plus (more importantly) it is illegal to make home brew here :( However, I do engage in making good red wine from a local dry tasting red berry (which has a long name which eludes me) and a good wine yeast I bring back from the UK when I visit :P
Cheers!
Great video thanks. Love FF music as well.
cheers Ian!
