In this video, I brewed a New England IPA (NEIPA) in an attempt to redeem myself from the last time when my NEIPA oxidized, since I bottled it. Wielding kegs this time and building on lessons learned from the last recipe, I succeeded this time. This particular NEIPA came out wonderfully, with a creamy mouthfeel, high drinkability and loads of orange, tropical, and citrus hops flavor. While it wasn't 100% safe from oxygen during the ENTIRE process, I minimized exposure by keeping my dry hop additions quick and by flushing the keg with CO2 as much as possible before transferring. I'm happy to report this didn't oxidize at all for at least the 6 weeks this was in the keg.

Looks great! That color is perfect for what I like my NEIPAs to be. You can also mash higher (156ish range) to improve body even further and leave some residual sweetness in there if it were to need it. Your dry-hop rate (and getting good results with it) was also refreshing haha I’ve seen so many people dry-hopping at >2 oz/gallon. And agreed on the transfer and kegging conversation. Purging the keg and gently transferring helps tremendously. Once it’s in the keg, you’re good to go. I’ve never had an oxidation issue that way. With that being said, I now have closed transfers capabilities and am looking forward to seeing if it makes any difference with this style. Cheers!

@TheApartmentBrewer 4 жыл бұрын

Thanks!! I'm interested to see of mashing higher would make a big difference. To be honest I think the level of sweetness/body left by the flaked grains was enough but it would be fun to push that a bit. I'm with you on the dry hopping rates, there would be no beer left if I went higher! Hopefully your closed transfer system is working out well and making it easier, I'm happy to say this beer isn't showing any signs of age any time soon. Cheers!

We've had success bottle conditioning NEIPAs by purging the headspace of the bottles with CO2. From my experience that was the biggest culprit. Our technique is more elaborate now, bottling straight from a pressurized Spike Flex with a Blichmann beergun, but it worked fine in our old days of just using a CO2 tank and purging with the hose right before capping. Might as well keg if you can, but if you're like us and have no space for a kegerator and have to split your beers between households, it works remarkably well.

@TheApartmentBrewer 4 жыл бұрын

@TwoandaHalfPintsHomebrew 4 жыл бұрын

@@TheApartmentBrewer The spike's been great for what we needed it for: The ability to pressurize to help with cold crashes, CO2 purging the dry-hop, and bottling straight off the fermenter. I do like the cone bottom and rotatable racking arm, and the fact that everything is triclamps. One day we'll experiment with using it as a unitank to carbonate. It's a great tool, but you can do a lot with a PET carboy with carboy hood and some CO2 for less $$$.

New subscriber here - enjoyed the video! One trick I have learned over the last year or so about staving off cold side oxidation is to add a bit of sodium or potassium metabisulfite (aka Camden tablets) into the keg before you transfer into it. The sulfites will scrub out oxygen and can help stabilize the beer. .3 grams is enough to dose a 5 gal keg, so it's dirt cheap insurance. I heard about it on Brulosophy and started doing it, and my beers improved quite a bit. I'm pretty sure I was oxidizing them somehow during transfer... But this seems to help correct that. I'd love a pressurized fermenter, but I can't afford that and honestly have no room for one. Anyway, just something to maybe play with in the future. Cheers!🍻

@TheApartmentBrewer 4 жыл бұрын

That's actually a very interesting technique that I dont think I've heard of being used in beer before. I know winemakers will use campden tablets to halt fermentation and clarify their wines but never considered it in beer. Just be careful nobody sensitive to sulfites drinks the beer! I may have to try this.

@@TheApartmentBrewer Definitely worth a Look! I haven't seen any effect on clarity, but I've definitely noticed a difference in the "freshness" of the beer. Hop character seems to stay longer, and no more sweet candy oxidation flavors. I obviously try to avoid as much oxygen as possible in other ways (i.e. racking into a closed, purged keg through the liquid out post, dry hopping in the keg vs fermenter, etc), but this seems to have helped catch whatever was sneaking by. 😊

As usual really enjoy your video’s. If you don’t mind can you provide a detailed procedure for a “whirlpool” procedure. I do not have a recirculating system. Do I create a whirlpool manually with a spoon during the hop additions? Temperature? Etc. thanks so much.

@TheApartmentBrewer 3 жыл бұрын

So the term whirlpool can to an extent be used interchangeably with hop stand. Meaning you don't necessarily need a physical swirling motion in your kettle. Yes you can do it with a spoon, you will gain all the same benefits but you will quickly lose temperature which may work against you. Ideally you keep the hops in for 20-40 min with a temperature range of 160-180 F. The benefits of the physical whirlpool include keeping kettle trub in the center of the kettle so you have less pickup and having more wort interaction with your hops. You can still get the same effect from a nonrecirculated hop stand though, it just may not be as dramatic.

Thank you for this real helpful video! I have a question about the kegging part of it. I've never worked with C02 before, but I really want to get into it because it prevents oxidation so well. So I was wondering, when you fill your keg with C02 preemptively, is there a way besides looking at it of knowing when you've added enough C02? And also, when you then add your beer to it, is that a moment where you have to release C02? Or do you not have to worry about over pressuring the keg at that point? Im not sure what the point is where you have to start worrying about blowing the keg up 😉

@TheApartmentBrewer 3 жыл бұрын

You never really have to worry about overpressurizing a keg. They're rated to something like 150 PSI and your CO2 regulator will start venting well before you reach that pressure. I just eyeballed the inside of the keg to look for mist. Not the best method I'm afraid but it did work!

@anisawant4960 2 жыл бұрын

Hey, how you doing. If you want to not mess with potentially exposing the beer to air at the 3rd day and thus avoid dry hopping all together, can you instead make those hop addition may be as late boil addition or the whirlpool? Well, I guess the question is if not dry hopping, how would you alter the hop additions ? and if you think dry addition is particularly important for this IPA then why ? Nevertheless the content that you put out is incredible!!

Calcium doesn't increase creaminess, afaik. It is more directly related to hardness of the water, along side of magnesium. Calcium rather improves your mash efficiency and decreases tannin extraction. Lack of it can increase haze due to oxalate salts precipitating. Calcium also helps with bittering compound extraction. The beer looks beautiful though.

If you purge by pressurizing it multiple times and letting it degas in between there is no guarantee that all the oxygen is gone since the gasses form a perfect mixture during pressurizing. Give it a try! Its quite easy, probably will cut down your gas usage slightly and assures you of a 100% certain oxygen free environment. Keep up the videos, and I hope I've helped you out somewhat! Kind regards from a Dutch brewer.

@TheApartmentBrewer 4 жыл бұрын

That's a method for sure. No, simply purging does get 100% of the oxygen out, but it was good enough for my purposes. Three weeks later, no color changes in this beer! Thanks for watching.

@catscats50 4 жыл бұрын

I'd never thought of that you're right. Because water is much heavier than CO2 it won't readily mix with the water as CO2 would with air in regular purging. CO2 is slightly heavier than air but will mix when agitated in the keg. Regular purging probably only gets rid of 90% of the air I would guess.

I always enjoy and learn from your video’s. Regarding Pilsner Malt with that much in the recipe in the past you recommended a 90 minute boil due to DMS issues. You did a 60 minute boil apparently with no DMS issues. Just your thoughts on that? Appreciate it. Thank you

@TheApartmentBrewer 3 жыл бұрын

It's a fair question since there seems to be a lot of disagreement in the homebrew community about that subject. I used to do a 90 minute boil quite religiously when using pils malt but now I've found most modern malt available to homebrewers is much higher quality than it used to be, making it less likely to generate DMS. in fact I just tasted a helles I made with a gentle 60 min boil with the lid cracked and it was fine.

As someone who works at a professional brewery and homebrews NEIPAs you cannot make these using plastic buckets. to minimize O2 exposure use a glass carboy and closed system CO2 transfers. its pretty cheap. Jason from Hops and Barley TV has a good video showing how to do this.

@TheApartmentBrewer 4 жыл бұрын

Sure, glass is less oxygen permeable but I have to disagree - you can absolutely do it with a plastic bucket as long as you are careful. Unless you're accusing me of lying about this beer, this method when used with kegs resulted in a very pale, juicy, aromatic true to style NEIPA that stayed fresh for 5 weeks. I dont at all believe that you MUST use certain equipment to make a certain beer at all. Are we really homebrewing if we're not pushing the boundaries of convention?

@fleshboundtobone 3 жыл бұрын

Given that you do BIAB with proper sparging (as opposed to full-volume mashing) if you have a target pre-boil gravity in mind then how do you know it's time to start sparging? E.g. for a target pre-boil gravity of 1.055 can you know to stop at 1.0XX because Y litres of sparge water will get you there? I'm also relieved to see you adding so much Calcium Chloride and it producing a great-tasting beer, I will need to add a similar amount and was worried it would be too much of one salt.

@TheApartmentBrewer 3 жыл бұрын

Well, I wouldn't say I really do BIAB, since I really just use the bag to keep my grain in one place and make cleanup easier. Yeah, it's not really that precise, but I sparge for volume and not for gravity. I have my method dialed in and adjust my beersmith recipes accordingly. I take all of my first runnings and pretty much every time I only need about 2.5-3 gallons of sparging to get to my target preboil volume at my target gravity +/- a few points. I find that mash efficiency is a much greater variable with various grain bills than sparge efficiency, so I just go for volume. If I'm really worried about hitting a particular OG, and I need to make up or lose some gravity points, I'll just adjust the boil length since I have a fixed boil off rate and always make more wort than I need to put in the fermenter. Hope that makes sense!
