Nice video Martin 🍻 I have that same scale I found it to be accurate. I've only got one complaint that complaint is. The scale automatically turns off whether or not it's plugged into the wall or running off a batteries. It can be kind of frustrating when I'm transferring from my unitanks into kegs. Other than that for the money I think it's an awesome scale!

Hi Martin, great video, as usual. I try to suggest friends to brew elegant and not too heavy beers along with strong and dense ones. I think that it is more challenging to brew balanced, clean and light beers than strong and malty ones. So I appreciate this video. Keep going!!
@TheHomebrewChallenge 3 жыл бұрын
Agreed. It was nice it have a break from the big beers.
@Sibula 11 ай бұрын
Definitely. A heavy dark beer can easily mask some mistakes that are obvious in a lighter beer. On the other hand some issues, like with yeast health or mashing, will often be even worse in a strong beer (although the end result can still taste pretty decent). For example a while ago I made a stout that ended up very unfermentable (a mash temperature issue combined with low calcium, I assume. Haven't entirely debugged it yet.), the apparent attenuation was under 50% and the beer was like 3.5% ABV. It still tasted pretty good but it definitely wasn't a success.

Martin, What is your opninion on hop bags. I tried them but I can't seem to get the hop flavour into the beer. Nowdays I just toss'em in the wort and let gravity do it's best at the end of fermantation.

Yeah have done that too so long as the fermenter isn’t prone to blocking.

Hello Martin, Does it matter if you use a high AA or low AA for bittering of you adjust the quantities? Is there a harsher bitterness with the same IBUs with the high AA?
@TheHomebrewChallenge 3 жыл бұрын
Probably not a huge impact. Large amounts of lower AA hops might lead to a slightly more vegetative character.

Hey Martin! Love the channel, recently starting brewing and getting plenty of great ideas to fill my kegs from you. Do you use tap water for your brews? I also live in Raleigh, and just use my tap water. I see there are some pretty detailed water reports from the city but I haven’t dug too deep into water chemistry yet. I would guess it changes depending on which style you are brewing but do you have any base water chemistry adjustments you make on every brew? Thanks!

I use tap water too, run through an RV water filter to remove chlorine.
@andersv20 3 жыл бұрын
6:25: I was always told never to use low alpha aroma hops for bittering because all the aromas are just boiled off anyway, meaning that not choosing one with a higher alpha content and just reducing the amount is just a waste of hops. However, I know that traditional German and Belgian breweries often singlehop with saaz anyway?

@Blackoakx2222 3 жыл бұрын
you can do a SMaSH type recipe if you're doing all-grain. Its a single Malt and single hop so it gives you an idea of how hops/grain impart flavors in beer.

I’ve been discussing with Clawhammer this same topic- it’s always optional, but not needed it their system. You may pick up a little more efficiency, but not worth the extra work/time. Great company with awesome customer support!!
@hugovandenberg313 3 жыл бұрын
With my Grainfather not sparging is not really an option. My efficiency drops too much. The sparge is a lot smaller than on my old system though. I used to have about 40% of my water in the sparge, with the Grainfather it’s about 20%.
