It is amazing how much the beer can change. My farmhouse ale got way better over months. I was freaking out when I just brewed my hefeweizen and kegged it. The first 3 or so pours were like it was in the fermenter and yeasty. Absolutely horrible. Fortunately, after wasting a few pints, it was fantastic and looked like it was supposed as well as taste. Never had that much crap at the bottom, but I didn't do a hefeweizen before. Also, I bottle from my keg but I only bottle to give to friends. Great content and cheers!
Nice video! For my bottles : i rinse them just after use, again after getting the labels off, and then into the dishwasher at sanitizing program! When dry, is store them in boxes and use them like that. Caps, i use straight from the package. Never had an issue… just my way😇
for sanitizing the bottles I recommend you to check out a bottle washer. It has some spring mechanism and a reservoir for sanitizer which makes flushing as easy as 3-4 pumping.
Wow Glen. Production values are amazing! Real step up from the Beardyman. Great that I do most things the same on bottling day. But need to get a conical fermenter by the looks of it. Going to be a long year till we see you taste this. Happy Christmas.
Thanks for the video Glen and great to see you back. Quick question - what bottling system is that? I have one of the plastic wands and am looking for an upgrade.
Thanks for sharing Glen - so many steps to remember! Can you programme your machine to output a predefined quantity (i.e. your bottle capacity) into your bottle?
Absolutely, I begin with a recipe and within the app I can specify a volume up to 40L and it will scale the recipe ratio for that volume. I then connect the app with the machine and brew away. When its in the fermenter I then work out how many bottles are required 👍🍻
You're back. So much has happened since you were gone. Looking forward to more content.

Bottling is satisfying when it's done but my god its a laborious task
Absolutely, there's a lot involved but its worth it in the end 👍🍻
Amazing video Glen. Great to see the return of the videos, keep it up 💪🔥
Thanks a million buddy, some interesting content on the cards. Hopefully you'll make it down with your dad over the summer 🤜🤛👍
@@TheBeardyManCraftBeers I will for sure 🤜🤛

Thanks for that, it's great to share our different ways and I might just give this shot....I feckin hate bottling 😅👍🍺
Ah, this brings back memories of when I used to bottle. Once I started kegging, I never looked back, lol.
I thought I'd never go back bottling, but I think this one is better suited to bottle conditioning and aging.....much prefer kegging tho 👍
Glad to see you return. I purchased a grainfather and other equipment after watching you channel. Only to see you quit making videos shortly after.
Great job as usual Glen.
Another great vid, the mallow man year again must get in contact to bounce a few ideas off you, I'm not on any social media so get stumped sometimes
Hey Barry, cheers bud! Yeah we definitely need to hook up for a beer to bounce ideas, sure just DM me here to arrange 🤜🤛🍺
Excellent video
Thanks a million Peter 👍🙌
Brilliantly done 👍 Putting the camera body under the drip is optional 😂
Cheers Don, the things I do during these videos - too much going on in my head 😂🍻🤜🤛

I was only looking at these recently actually and need to upgrade my bottling equipment, so thanks a mil for the tip 👍🍻

Hey Ian, thanks very much! Conical fermenter is the job, I might get more. New vid to be published in the next couple of day 🙌🍻

Nice video, what are your thoughts on plastic bottles.
Never actually used them, but I've heard good things alright 👍
