Make a lager in 3 days with pressure fermentation! Learn how to pressure ferment your homebrew in this video. Tesla's Elon Musk has yet to release his Giga Beer, but when he does, we imagine it'll be pressure fermented, just like this. After all, how else will it be reproduced with such low atmospheric pressure on Mars? We created a pressure fermenter using a corny keg and to test it out we brewed a delicious light lager. This beer is the definition of an easy drinker - light, crisp, clean, and just all-around-great.

If you haven’t heard of pressure fermentation, right here is a great place to start. You'll learn about what it is and how to pressure ferment in this video. In short, your beer will ferment faster, cleaner, and it’ll even save you money!

Before upgrading to a Fermentasaurus Snub nose, I pressure fermented in kegs. I also served straight from the fermenting keg (with a floating dip tube) for a ESB and have zero issues with off flavors over the month and a half.

Just got the All Round, but I almost feel like doing it in kegs with everything being solid & no plastics would look like the upgrade. But definitely I felt I wanted to see what was happening inside so I chose to go this way instead.

Next-level quality! Def gonna try that one out! One thing I didn't quite get is what is meant with cold crashing. Do you let the fermenter sit at 0-4°C for the next 48h? I can't imagine that this is the case since you only let it ferment for one day before and I guess at such low temperatures not much of fermentation is happening. So, for how long do you cold crash it?

I have conclude that by pressure fermenting lagers you only gain fermentation to higher (room) temperatures and faster fermentation. I believe you don't avoiding lagering time which many out-there say that they gain. I believe the lager needs lagering...

You are kidding me, this was brewed with Saflager from grain to glass within a week?! I have a pack of Saflager that I ordered by accident, the only thing I'm missing is the clearing agent (and I'd have to replace the hops with something else). I already have the pressure fermentation gear. I'm going to be making this baby a little brother one of these weeks!

I think you missed the whole point. I have been pressure fermenting (in a corney keg with 1.5 inches cut off the dip tube) for many years. You should oxygenate the wort - pitch the yeast - then seal it up and pressurize with 1BAR. Purge the oxygen twice or 3 times. Let it go at room temperature for 4 to 7 days. then transfer to another keg. If you have an out to out transfer tube (after pressurizing the serving keg, and purging twice, and bringing it to 1Bar) put the spunding valve on the in of the serving keg - NOTHING WILL TRANSFER because you have 1bar on both sides of the transfer. SLOWLY back-off on the spunding valve until beer starts to transfer. Take it easy so you don't stir up the sediment -- never move the fermenter. When you get gas transfer, pull the hoses. This guarantees that your beer is NEVER exposed to air/oxygen. Put it in the kegerator under serving/carbonation pressure for 2 weeks, then drink...

I just tasted my lager with S-189. Non pressured. 2 packs of yeast to 30 litres of 1.052 OG. Primary 3 weeks, 6 weeks lager, 2 weeks in bottle and tastes like acetaldehyde. I hope this will clean off for christmas :( But your method is definitely faster than mine, don't know if it's better tho in the end. On topic: S-189 is rated up to 22C (71F) so I think this test should be done with a lager yeast that is not rated for such high temperatures.

When fermenting a lager under pressure, is it still worth doing a diacetyl rest and then time lagering while still under pressure or does having it under pressure take care of a lot of that?

@michaelsabottka2956 2 жыл бұрын

the pressure takes care it that, when i do my pressure fermented lagers, from start to finish ready to drink in 12 days using using saflager w-34/70 or US-05 yeast, also tends to finish drier than not pressure fermented, will finish at 1.004. Will transfer to a clean keg around day 4, cold crash for 24 hours, then add some unflavored gelatin from walmart and pressurize for desired carb level and let it sit for the rest of the week

How much headspace do you think is needed so that foam can't clog the spunding valve?

@ClawhammerSupply 2 жыл бұрын

You don't need much headspace as long as the pressure is constant. It actually prevents blowoff. However, if you should lose pressure during fermentation for some reason...well, then you'll need as much headspace as you would normally allow for.
