Thanks, man! I really enjoy watching your experimental brewing videos and seeing you really push the envelope! Interesting stuff and entertaining! You are a craftsman for sure! Cheers!

This is the best video I have seen so far on a small scale but professional brew op. Nice job Tony!

Thanks, man! Preparing the cups ahead of time certainly help prevent forgetting something later on in the brew day. Cheers!

Cracking set-up Tony.... Thanks for the brewday tour man... Nice!!

Thank you for including your cleaning regime! You answered some of my questions.

These setups and yours looks fantastic, definitely triggers my wow factor, but I have never seen anyone brewing with a set up like this actually look they are enjoying the process. It always looks like the souls gone out of it and gone industrialised.

Awesome video! I like the look of the Blichmann's setup.

Looks great Tony! I am getting closer to finishing mine and I am jonesin' to make my first brew. I will do a video to show where I am at in the process. Cheers!

I'm going to call it between 6 and 7 hours. I've never had it faster than that. Thanks for your feedback Dan. FYI, I'll be using the 1oz hop addition in the Gruit as you suggested earlier, and Immo pointed out in his brewday with BHBrewing. I think he used Sterling, but i'm probably going to have to go with something else, maybe Saaz. I'll have to see what's in my freezer that day. ;-) Cheers!

Great brew day Tony. I hope everyone is well. Cheers

Nice one tony what a great set you have...it's amazing..keep up the good work....cheers

Thanks Paul! Your intros are epic. I'm looking forward to taste the NZIPA. Thanks for the tip! :-)

Thanks! It's been great the last couple brews. Some folks don't agree, but different strokes for different folks I guess. Honestly looking at that Hydrometer meter think I only got 1.066 out of it, but it finished at 1.010, so 7.4% is going to be enough. :-) I should be tasting it soon! Cheers!

nice video mate very good procedure its good to see other people enjoy driving there system

Duly noted! :-) It was more of an experiment with some 5 month old Dennys Fav. Thanks for your comments, I am really happy with it. Cheers!

That is most definitely a candidate for the BYO Home Brewer Drool System. Very nice set up you have there. Enjoyed watching your Brew day Cheers ! 17 !

very nice brew day Tony, like the hop addition cups, hood is super, FV's look awesome, i hate clean up. Cheers

You getting a new grain mill? My corded electric drill was really bad and doesn't have the correct setting to variate the rpms so I went out and bought a new battery electric drill that does the trick. Cheers man!

Tony wow you have a serious setup really impressive. Way to Go!

It's nice, that there are such people, who, despite the long hours of their own time, makes such video for other people to get some knowledge :)

I know it's really hard to tell from watching my videos, but I kinda like these Blichmann gizmos and gadgets. ;-) It made a big difference for me and I like it a lot. I read some forum posts before hand they were not all great reviews, so I was really hesitant about it. But in the end, I knew it couldn't be any worse than than big screen. The PH tester is really great. I feel more sure about where my brew should be with it, although I still have yet to get my water analyzed. SOON. Cheers Kevin!

Great video, as usual!! I'm glad I saw it in your popular ones list. I also got really tired of that screen from TheElectricBrewery. Total waste of $70, I cannot understand how Kal, or anybody else, can use it. Might be user error on our side, but for me on top of getting clogged really easy on hoppy beers, the flow just stops when the level of wort is underneath it. And to make things worse, it forces the element to be higher up. The rest of the system works flawlessly, and I really love brewing with it! Cheers!

+1 for Brewing Classic Styles.

Yeah, there's really no need to hydrate Safale 05. Just pour it on the head and it'll hydrate on the way to the beer.

Awesome setup for a start! Im building my own HERMS system but im a bit green on a couple of things. In your HLT is the water recirculating from the bottom of the pot into the pump then out back into the top of the pot, keeping the water in the pot moving around the coil to keep the overall temp of the water more even while you are mashing? Guessing this acts as a "stirrer" to reduce stratification.... am i on the right track with this? Cheers!

Hi Tony, What is your setting gap betwen the rollers? Do you use a feeler gauge? Thanks

Thanks Chris! Cheers!

wow¡¡ Many greetings and thank you very much success at all¡

Question, how long is your brew day on this system?

love the hop blocker! I might have a Christmas present come a little early! nice views on the video! 1.068, nice job! you are going to love this beer! you might have a hoppier flavor, seeing I use hop bags! my aba (the second one) went crazy in the primary! haha great video tony! cheers and hhbw!

hey, dude. are you able to make a braggot from all grain? (basically it's a mead but with hops and malt)

Why do you need the fan for an electric boil kettle?? Why exhaust those awesome smells out if you don't have to?

Looking forward to the video! Cheers!

I think you spent more on your home brew setup than I did on my car. Anyways nice setup.

great video. Just moving from gas/propane to an electric HERMS system. Just seems so much more energy efficient. No running out of gas.

I live in wichita ks... Planning to buy one to take to my country .

Hey Tony! - Great video! It's been hard to find a good video demonstration of a Blichmann homebrew setup but you've nailed it. I'm in the process of building my own, I was wondering one thing though; when you pump the wort from the mash tun into the boil kettle, how do you avoid pumping in any grain? Is the grain cake sat below the tap or do you have some sort of filter?

All is well. Just starting vacation so I've got no complaints. :-)

OK, well I thoroughly enjoy brewing on my rig. What nobody likes is clean up. ;-) What are you brewing up these days? Cheers!

Great video! How are you controlling flow from the mash tun to boil kettle during the sparge? It looks like both the MT and BK valves are full open.

Okay I think I'm seeing the purpose of the whirlpool its to not have a heating element directly under the grain? I'm assuming they may scorch?

Love me some NZ hops, but I'd probably save the Nelson Sauvin for a late addition. It's such an expensive hop (in Brazil at least) that I feel the need to taste and smell every gram of it =P

great video,jelous of your setup. interested in a short video explaining your controller cheers

Nice setup! A technical question: how long does it take to raise sparge water to specific temp for example 64 oC? And how You control the presure in pumps for not overfilling wort tank? by hand(water flow control) or other way ?

Okay I may post more questions as I'm watching the video. But I'm currently in the propane stage and looking to go electric. Why do you prefer this method over the bib method? And what's the purpose of recirculation?

At 20:40 you can use a mini/regular Autosiphon clamp for your tube.

Gday tony great video . Do you have a spec lust for the equipment in this video ? Regards Morry

I really like you'r uploads, leeching some good tips/wisdom/experience from time to time :) Daydreaming about a similar setup but trying to have a higher "wife acceptance factor-WAF"(storing equipment and receipts away from my better half.

Hey Gary, just found your channel recently. your videos are very informative. Thanks for taking the time to make them. Do you have a water filtration system or just use the tap water?

Hey tony... Awesome set up. Got a question on those blichmann kettles you use (sorry if you already answered this someplace), but did you add those inlet and outlet ports yourself? I don't see where blichmann sells that configuration anywhere.

Tony, You have a great brewing system there, I envoy you, I'm looking to do the same sort of setup one day soon

I didn't see you actually mash out. Did you up the temp in the HLT to 76C and slowly raise the temp of the mash that way? Seems like that would take a good amount of time. Thanks.

I meant the whirl pooling while mashing. Like why wouldn't you just have the 2 pots and mash in one instead of keeping the grains in one and recirculating the hot water through the hlt is it to not Scorch the grain?

So this setup is all automatic besides swapping some hoses?

what a nice setup,

Hi Tony , i`m putting together a system and ordered a bunch of camlocks & hose for my kettles . On my F camlocks they came with some "dust plugs " but I have no idea how they are supposed to connect with each other ? Do you have these , and if so, are they just wired together or how are they connected ? Thanks !

The only reason not to the use the plastic cups. Tastes better using glass. Also, I have read a lot of negative complaints on the blichman hop blocker using pellet hops. How has yours worked out?

hello excellent video, you have the recipe or the type of dark beer you drank?

Where I can buy the brewer containers?

hi tony i have been watching a lot of your videos and learning a lot as i build my brewery in my basement. the electric control box. where you put your holes on the kettle ect ect. you have had great advice and thank you for all the videos you put up. but this video i had a question that i am not to sure about and its about the blichman hop stopper. i went on there site and looked at the hop stopper and saw that there holes are a lot lager then the screen you have been using. and it makes me question you on that choice. how much sediment is actually making past it and getting into the fermenter. I'm not questioning you knowledge but i just don't get it. i don't use blichman products cause they are very expensive so i settled for some jarhill 15 gallon pots i found on ebay. I'm not to happy with it but maybe blichman will send me some of theres for free. long shot but its nice to dream. let me know either way i am interested in knowing

hello, thanks for advance contestar.- the secon one, I think it is a stout if you have the recipe thank you very much

cool set up

love your intros, always makes me thirsty. rock on NZ IPA, with mot-chew-e-car, lol

cool system...did you ever use just the regular 3 keggle type system ? Does the cost of a Blicman justifiy itself? How much are these now anyways ? Do you think a hop straining bag would help out at all ?

Music indeed! Next time, cheers man!

Are the equipment expensive? How much?

Great video, Ever tried Fermcap-S

how do u control the speed of the transfer to kettle and sparge. I noticed you opened the ball valves all the way and u said do it slowly

I am wanting to brew this IPA, but aside from the ingredients, I can't find much specifics. Do you have instructions one could easily follow (strike water to kegging)? Any help would be fantastic. Thank you!

Hi Kevin! I didn't think that for a second. I was trying to be ironical/comical, then just explain it a bit more. :-) No offense taken. Cheers!

Thanks for the tip! ;-)

It's pronounced "Maw Chew Weka" according to Time4Another1. :) One helluva set up!

hello friend,How much electrical power HERMS and How much your homebrewing? thanks

Massgrowstv and Massbrewstv ❤'s this!

You pronounce it perfect in the vid

I'm sorry I mean wine brewer equipment... Thank you

Ringnes is actually Norways biggest brewing-company, which again is owned by Carlsberg Group in Denmark. :)

Hey Tony, can you actually buy those O2 tanks in Norway? Can't get em here in Denmark. Definitely some jealousy from the south on your setup ;) Cheers man

brewing beer while drinking beer and then reading about brewing beer..........that's bad ass

Ringnes is the largets Commercial brewery in Norway. Like most commercial breweries, they do not produce good beer,

Yeah, when I wasn't thinking about it or worrying I would screw it up... Haha. Cheers!

Homebrew Wednesday - NZ IPA Brew weekend - Stone ABA clone & Larmo22's New Zealand IPA All-Grain brew day on HERMS, step-by-step.

Great video :)

Very informative. Thank you.

Классый видос, начал планировать строить пивоварню по принципу HERMS. Thanks, this is good!

It takes about 28 people to dislike a good video on youtube.. Im not sure if those are even people

liked...cheer's and thanks

love the video--I would suggest not milling next to my yeast starter though. But,to each his own

I could not agree more. :-)

cool

I get it...you like hops!!!!

even maw-chew-weka is hard to pronounce, lol

15.18 -15.22, there is a fried egg in the brew kettle! ha ha .

MO TOO ACH AA

The yeast is very happy indeed. Eating all those delicious sugars and shitting out alcohol in return for us to drink.

went to high school with a girl with your last name

Ringnes is Norwegian beer

9:00 wait....did you say grain BREAD????? loooool

Mott-oo-ek-ka hops =)

way to much hops GEEEZ
