Is your beer a home brew? Beer activism is more than just a college past time.

@whatsbrewinguk if your ever get the urge to do an all grain, i’d be more than willing to bring my kit over, try before you buy sort of thing, check out the worchester hop shop, he’s put together some nice all grain kits, nicely priced too

@chrisftw92 Thanks Chris – dry malt is not the easiest to dissolve, however pouring it into cold water means you don’t get it clinging on the bag and with a bit heat added it just dissolve’s by itself…however I’ll give this a try …keep the tips coming… I’m just a learner

Watching this on my tv with the surround sound on. I thought my washing machine had turned itself on.
When I add drymalt extract I find that pouring it with the dextrose into the fermenter and adding abit of water at a time while mixing it turns it into a paste. after that just adding boiling water turns it into a liquid without clumps.

@Szlyynaa Thanks for the input….i edit out most of my stirring as 2 minutes of stirring the wert is a bit boring…but i do add the water from a good hight and this really helps.

Quick tip; Try to stir the worth more to oxygenate it. Oxygen is really healthy for the yeast.
Thanks for nice vids btw. Keep the good work up!

@DevonHomeBrew Hi Matey, moving onto two can kits then after that going mini mash then eventually all grain…hopefully doing videos of my journey …..finding videos of uk brewers is a real hard find.

Quick tip for you about dried malt. The easiest way to do these kits is to add all dry ingredients into the bottom of your Fermenting bucket first, then add the 2L of boiled water on top. Pick up the bucket, and swirl round and round in your hands. Should dissolve pretty sharpish with little or no clumping.

Nice brewing videos man, keep it up, have you ever considered going all grain or atleast mini-mash style of brewing.

Fuckin hippy. This guy isn’t nearly man enough to drink beer. His own suggestions cause you to think he would be against brewing all together, for the mere Co2 created during fermentation of wort. Due up: a video with this fucker suggesting commercial breweries label list the Co2 emitted during the production of every 12 oz beer.

Liquor license, permit .. same thing. You cant sell homebrew without a permit.

Coperate brewing= shitty pilsners
Homebrewing/ craft brewing= good beer FOR ONCE!
