Avoid drinking/dealing with alcohol do you don’t burn in hell forever.
Still my favorite video series on brewing. I think this is my 3rd or 4th view.
theres far more simpler ways to make beer found on youtube. calcium? wtf you dont need that. dextrose works just fine, use half blackberry honey with it if you want.

great vid thx
I NEED A REAL SPOON
thumbs up for weed as a supplement for beer!!
With wine, you just pitch the yeast into a fermentation container, not prepare it and activate it with all this nonsense.
If you want to get away from all of those plastic jugs of water, use a Berkey filter. It is stainless steel and you can filter 99% of all impurities out of your tap water, and works by gravity. It is what I use for my brew! Plastic is poison…
Should i do a yeast starter for a 5 gallon batch?
beeeeeeeeer bellyyyyyy hahaa
Nice
very informative. music was too loud, annoying.
this song was on monty python and the life of brian
lool omg i have had a great idea , canabis brew
Very pleasent video, and thorough. I make beer myself (current favorite: Porter/Stout). It looks like you have lots of fun making brew.
Great vid, very instructional. I could do without the 1970′s porno background music, but otherwise, AOK.
thats cool. people should post cool facts like that more often.
You are exactly right. I made an error in reporting the starting temp in the video. 170F water will drop to about 153F after adding the malt, which is the perfect range for optimum alpha amylase activity
yo did u guys kow that hops and canibus are in the same family?
ok just a question. u say you need to get the water to 160degree Fahrenheit 5:28 and i think you might be wrong. you are adding what looked like allot of grain. shoudent the temperature of the water be raised to about 170 to compensate for the possible 10 drop when adding the cold grain? sry if my comment seems silly or is badly worded
i want a beer
LOL the song is great
When he’s talking about getting the correct portion of water to malt to balance the PH, is it really 1.35 quarts of water to 1 pound of malt? I’ve looked around the internet for more information but can find anything. Is it correct?
Great stuff – I’[m truly inspired. My days of sobriety are over.
That depends a lot on how well you sanitize. I’d say 6 months to a year.
hi, likeyour vids, but have you ever tried brewing a lager using oak chips ? if not could you make a vid using oak chips
I enjoy your video’s!! once you bottle your beer how long can you keep it at room/refridgerator temp?
Craig could be right about the old yeast. But… If I were you I would leave it in the fermenter for about 3 weeks before testing, how do you know yeast has finished? Have you measured gravity 3 days in a row? One measurement isn’t enough to determine if yeast has finished? In colder temps yeast works slower so could take longer, not sure what the temp is in Quandry this time of year ;P. Most people, regardless of temp, give it at least 3 weeks before bottling.
What are you visualizing? Christ, get some help there.
WAT A BUMHOLE
love your videos
How did your beer turn out?
It’s all in the can.
I don’t understand don’t u need hops to make brew?
hey Craig, i havent gotten my kit yet bu if i dont have asterilizating solution what else can i do and whats the chances of getting a brew right the first time i try it?
The only thing I could find close to this adjuct is malto dextrine. Any clue if this is sufficient?
much better than the last vid i watch was a freakin rocket science lesson, i dont like the IPA hoppy stuff , is the pre hopped stuff good for dark malty brew ?
hi craig i need help i just made ginger beer and its flat what do i need to do
just bought my starter kit yesterday, my journey into home brewing begins.
When brewing how do you get the alcohol level higher
hey craig i have just started brewing and the kits on the way, but i couldnt wait so instead of using coopers yeast extract i used marmite wich is the same thing but cheaper in the uk, my drink is brewing and i will tell you how it goes any then you could try it.
Craig, you’re the best Man. I’ve learned soooooo much, and you make it fun. Thanks!
Use spell check. drinking this beer makes your hair turn white.
Fantastic videos I just trying to brew mine today my tube doesn’t come with a hole to put a air lock in doesn’t that matter???
hey craig i aint doing a beer brew yet but just quick question about flementing im doing an alcoholic fruit juice and i shook the container now the yeast is not floating on top is this a bad sign lol its 5ltr batch and i have already put a sache thats does 22.5 ltrs in it so not 2 sure if i can actualy put anymore or if it might still work ok with it not flaoting on top
can i substitutes hop with neem tree fruit? (azadirachta indica), i live in bali indonesia…is it possible to grow hop plant in bali? thanks for your reply…
Can of malt extract
Great vid. One tip though. Put the can upside down into a tub of hot water. This makes it a lot easier.
