"Remember, you got to be 21 years or older to be drinking this" - laughs in 16 year old german.

I’m glad he started with the equipment section because that was enough to convince me not to do this. Great video though

Wow, THIS video took me down a complete brewing rabbit hole. A year later and almost 20 brews later it showed up in my feed again!!

"YOU GOTTA SANITIZE EVERYTHING!" *Proceeds to put entire leg on counter*

“This is a simple recipe” ... “Don’t forget to make the appropriate goat sacrifice, calculate the distance to the sun to the nearest millimetre, and don’t forget to sanitise everything in your house”

At first I was thinking "Where the hell am I gonna find somewhere that has all those grain selections?" then I remembered we are in the same town XD

I’m now drinking my last saison and I will def brew it again, after 3 weeks of conditioning I must say I found the ginger was very perceptible but after 2 more weeks of aging the flavours meld much more and it’s delicious !!! When I first saw this video I was intimidated with making beer but after failing 2 of 3 brown ales I tackled this one and I couldn’t be happier !! Even though you were my 4th brew you were the spark that got me in to the process, thank you pantsy man!!! 😀

I’m a pretty avid home brewer and this is more advanced than I’d recommend if you’re intimidated at all. Instead of steeping grains and spice, you can try only extracts and hops for your first batch. Just by you doing it at home and it being fresh, it’ll be way more flavorful than some bigger beer companies. Instead of a fancy carboy, it’s fine to start with a bucket from Lowe’s or something. Drill a hold in the top for a stopper. Not ideal, but cheaper if you’re starting out. For bottling, if you don’t have glass bottles or a wand, I recommend saving old plastic soda or seltzer bottles. They hold carbonation well. I started with 2.5 gal batches and it was great. My first 5 gal batch, I had to use a 2 liter bottle because it was more than the bottles that I had. Priming sugar is great, but table sugar works fine in a pinch (also, 5 tabs per bottle is crazy. 1 tab is fine. That’s why the tabs are that size. Don’t over carb in a bottle. Chance of an explosion). There are calculators online to figure out how much you need. I recommend mixing sugar into water, then mixing that in the finished beer so it’s evenly distributed between your bottles. He allows more time than you need. That’s when a hydrometer is nice so you can check gravity, but most of my beers finish fermenting in a week and can bottle condition in as little as 5 days. Letting it go longer won’t hurt it, but if you’re anxious to drink it. And the hydrometer is nice, but most of the beginner kits are accurate enough that you don’t need one to start out.

I'm disappointed that you missed the chance to say "Beer-roll" instead of B roll.

I would add two things to this: 1) For starter brews, shake the carboy a bit after the wort goes in, this will help get some O2 into the beer, ultimately you want to use a stone and an O2 bottle, but if its your first one a good shake will do 2) you don't have to ferment for a solid 2 weeks. You can ferment to taste. I personally only take my beers to 1.018, this leaves enough sugar left in the beer to not be dry. That's the joy of home brewing, make it how you like it. And FYI, bottle bombs are real. My father in law had one blow on him. There was glass imbedded in the ceiling.

Dude because of you I started with making my own lacto fermanted hot sauce and am going to start with beer next week. Huge props, this stuff is crazy good!

I've been making beer for 10 years and came here for sourdough... this is probably one of the best straight forward "how to brew" specialty with extract home brew videos I've seen in 10 years. Cheers!

*smacks yeast* Me:oh that's cool *Puts leg on the counter* Me:ʘ‿ʘ

Since I've started brewing my own beverages I've developed an appreciation for different styles of brew. It's all fun for me to experiment with.

Hey dude! Idk if you’re gonna see this but this video is one of the reasons why I got into homebrewing! So thanks for the inspiration it’s been 3-4 years of learning and brewing and you showed me how “easy” it is. Thanks!

"Remember, you got to be 21" *Laughs in literally anywhere else in the world*

Went from "how to make kombucha" to "how to make your own beer" lmao

Please make a new brewing video, I know it’s time consuming but this is one of my favourite Weissman videos

Awesome step by step instructions. Just brewed a batch and bottled today. Can't wait to enjoy it!

I've always thought about making my own beer, but after seeing this video, I think I'll just pay someone else to do it lol.

"Tie off your sack" I'm good, that sounds painful..

Just glad in my groceries stores they have rows and rows of microbreweries beers. For sure you will find something you like in there. Quebec is a really good place to try a lot of beers, maybe not like Belgium or Germany, but it is something.

Ive been brewing beer wine and cider for the past 4 years!!! I absolutely love it!! The best tasting brew you will ever have is the fresh one you made by yourself!! And! Eventually it will pay for itself!! After you get all the supplies you need you can crank out bottles of homebrew at 23 cents a bottle!!

“You can use ginger if you don’t have galangal”. Yeah! Because I have everything else in my kitchen.

Went from kombucha to beer. Can’t wait for he vodka episode mr. Weismann

this definitely makes me want to brew my own! thanks for making an awesome video

This is absolutely my next challenge. My grandma loves a good beer and I would love to make one for her (I live with my grandma to help her and take care of her)

2:50 My Sac Cringed

Could you do a video on how to make vinegar?

Omg I just realized Joshua could be a darn spectacular super villain. You know all super villain have their own vanilla stories in their origin and how they were before they became one. Joshua fits very well.

"Ah yes, mum, take out our 6 gallon fermenter "

Pretty cool. I tend to favor the dry malt extract myself. This beer turned out to be 5.4% alcohol by volume. To calculate your alcohol by volume all you need to do is take your final gravity and subtract it from your original gravity reading and multiply your answer by 131.25 and that will give you your ABV. 1.050 - 1.009 = .041 X 131.25 = 5.38125. When you round this up it comes out to 5.4% ABV.

The different names for everything makes it sound like you’re brewing a magic potion

I literally had no intention on brewing beer but was curious and this video made my day. A video I didn’t know I needed! 😭🤣

The last time I dropped my sack into three gallons of hot water, the ambulance got involved. I realized that I need to follow instructions better.

My husband and I keep looking up how to do things (make beer, eggnog, sourdough) and you keep popping up. Thanks for the quality content 🍻

i love the way this video/brew was designed/integrated together. Thank you Josh :)

At my school there is actually a beer brewing workshop availabe for students over the age of 15. It's really cool, they even make different types of beer. ( drinking age in Germany is 16 for beer and wine)

I tried the recipe and followed the instructions, and the result was an AMAZING BEER!! THANK YOU

”You gotta be 21 years old or older to drink beer” *laughs in 14 year old in parents basement*

Another way to keep the carboy/bucket in the dark is with wick cooling. Wrap it in dark colored, wet towel (with the carboy/bucket in a plastic tub with about 1" of water), and secure it to the carboy.bucket with a bungee cord that's not too tight. The wick cooling works well in places like Florida, and keeps the wort at about 5 deg below the room temperature.

This is honestly one of my passions brewing is so fun i like to make meads and beers working on getting into distilling

I remember my second year of highschool, we did an experiment and we forgot about it. It kinda turned to beer after 2-4 months 🤣😅

my dad started with something like this, and now he does it for a living

one of the local micro brewery (unfortunately they ended up folding) had a farmhouse beer and it was great.

Fun to watch,ive never home brewed. First job in beer was a commercial system with a mash press. 2nd and current one in another commercial system.

You: ”You gotta be 21 years or older to be drinking” Me : Laughs in european

I'm French and I don't even know what "B roll" means. I just love it when you say this in every videos. Great fermentation Friday!

Thank you for making a beer recipe I can understand!! I have been trying to make beer during this whole year of Covid. I made an hard apple cider that turned to wine from the most complicated beer recipe on KZfaq I have ever seen. It failed me.in so many ways. It is still good wine but not what I wanted. Every beer recipe I see makes it so complicated that I do not understand it. Again Thank You so much for this easy recipe along with all your other recipes on here. You are seriously my favorite Chef on the Internet for how you break everything down and make it all simple with out a back story of your recipes or going too scientific on everything.

Brewing at home is the greatest smell there is. I haven't done it myself yet, but a buddy does.

i just wanted to clarify that adding salt your your ice bath will actually melt the ice faster not slower.... but it will also make your ice bath colder:p. The way this works is it lowers the freezing point of your water to approx -2 Celsius (seawater). This means the water can more readily transfer the energy into the ice melting it, but in doing so reduce the temperature of the liquid in your ice bath to below 0 Celsius. Which will have the overall effect of increasing the rate of cooling on your beer by increasing the temperature differential between your ice water and the mixture to be cooled..

Well this was really straight forward video from non brewing channel, great job! But there are few things you can improve if you want to start homebrewing. Dont bother with grains just buy the extracts. Saves time. Pick an easy beer to brew like pale ale, US-05 yeast are forgiving. Instead of carboy, buy yourself a bucket with a spigot, no need to buy a racking cane and buckets are much easier to clean. Use plastic bottles, just make sure they are brown or green. It saves you time, you dont have to cap it, capping tools can be expensive and also it gives you a chance to check for pressure in the bottles. Common rookie mistake is bottling too soon which in glass bottles means you just made few time bombs. Cheers.

“You have to be 21 years or older to drink beer” 18 year olds in Canada watching this: 👀

I love your intro song... been watching you for awhile and as a fellow chef I throughly enjoy watching your videos.

“Remember to be 21! O.o” - laughs in 19 year old Boricua

I started brewing mead recently, and none of it is done, but I can already tell it's gonna be lightyears better than anything I can find near me 😆

Great video. Honestly, seems like too much work so I’ll just continue go to my local brewery and enjoy the craft beers they produce and appreciate a little more the beer they make after watching this video.

Love the editing! This has to be the best non-“beer guy” how-to-brew beer video I’ve seen! 👍👍

So in simplistic terms you make "grain tea" and then put yeast in it?

Just got a brew set up given to me, I'm going to try this one first :) super excited to try this! And like u said completely make a beer to exactly how I like it!

It’s amazing how easy it is to make beer. Good thing I didn’t know this in high school…

Been making beer for seven years now and this is a great video. Well done Josh. Cyber high 5.

Before I watched this video I though to myself, This guys doesn't come off as a beer drinker. My assumption was correct.

wow thanks for this video, my beer has been turning out meh, but I make it in this way basically so ty

Joshua: “galangal and ginger is basically the same thing” Uncle roger: brings leg down from chair

I’m impressed with the beer style pick- saison is fantastic.

Lmao I will not consume a drop of this devils juice. But excuse me I need to ask my mom we’re we keep our large jars.

hey Josh, great production and channel. I have made several batches of beer using kits. just curious, why don't we mix the sugar in the carboy before going into the bottles to make it more homogeneous through out the bottles? does it matter? thank You

Dude, just wanna say that I absolutely love your videos.

Beautiful recipe and great instructional video! I have been brewing for a while now and Im really into making a brew called a gruit, which is basically an unhoped beer! I would imagine your recipe here would be fantastic unhoped and then using something else to add a bitterness! Great video! 🍺

Forget a cooking channel, you should start an ASMR channel. When you poured that beer you had me feeling mad tingles man

Question: is it possible to skip the hops? I'm not a huge fan of the bitter flavour of hoppy beers, so what would the consequences of removing them be? Are there varieties that are less bitter?

I opened this one up without knowing it's a JOSHUA WEISSMAN VIDEO! What can this guy not make?

Why doesn't this channel have a million subs?

"Remember, you got to be 21 years or older to be drinking this" *laughs in it isn't illegal if you don't get caught*

Dude Loved This Great stuff. Guestlist forever at our gigs. X

This guy again, he keeps popping up every time I search how to make something. Time to subscribe.

how the hell does this guy know everything you can do in your kitchen

I feel so sorry for every American who can’t drink beer legally until they are 21. Greetings from Germany and wow, your recipes are so well explained ! Thank you

This is (I believe) the second time you have referred to Grains of Paradise. A video about the many ways it can change everything would be cool. The explanation of what it is, a bit on the history, and how to use it would be perfect. Just an idea.

I recommend going to a Clark's Nutrition store if you're close to one in order to find alot of seeds nuts spices and just about anything else he used, pretty sure Clark's is mainly in CA though

Who else tryna make beer during their quarantine time? 😳🥴

Hey Josh You should try to make Root Beer for Fermentation Friday. Would like to see your take on it.

Im so glad my fridge doesn't bully me when i leave it open staring at its content for more then 15 mins.

I legit only just made a sourdough starter and watched your vid and then I decided to make beer and you came up again 😂

I laughed way too hard when he was slapping the yeast and his leg went on the counter

Man this guy BLEW up. I watched his ramen episode first, well done 👍

As a beer guy, this is the way to make it. Keep it up Joshua

So if you want “light” beer, do you ferment that in the sun?

WHILE YOU MADE THE PART YOU WERE IN THE BED I GOT A DUREX AD I CAN'T-

Joshua, I absolutely love you videos, you have more information on you page than bon appetite. I love your commitment to knowledge and making it practical for novices.

I'll make life easier for you who think there are way too many things here to get started: all you really need for some good beer is oats, hops and yeast. All you need to make it is a large cooking pot, a sieve bag and a fermentation jug with a tap and airlock. Thats it!!! The cost for all that combined is less than 50 bucks and you literally need to buy 3 things for ingredients and 3 things to cook it. I assume everyone has a sieve at home, and old bottles can be reused, especially with a flip-top. Sanitizer is a big plus but even that can be replaced by boiling everything. All the rest is extra that you can get later on, if you even want to.

As a professional brewer: -Partial Extract is a good place to start -Extract = NO KISS: Small advancements in equipment can take you to 100% ALL GRAIN brewing (do this if you can - the end product flavor is night and day different) -Brewers are trying to meet every customer's wants - this is a revolving target... as of 2022 there are around 9-10 thousand breweries in the US. Most likely there's one near you that would have something you would like! -Heart You Josh!

“Remember, you gotta be 21 to drink!” *laugh in 1940’s moonshiner*

0:56 Me (a 16 year old German) : is this some sort of American joke that I'm too German to understand?

Informative and engaging, enjoyed learning the beer-making process.

7:15 was expecting an ad there, respect the b roll my man

"i don't like beer that much" i could tell by the way you poured it
