Welcome to the Dude Stew Brews channel. What started as an inside joke, turned into a perfect homebrew name.
I've been brewing beer since 2013 and just recently started to get really into it and started designing my own recipes. Come along for the brew ride and maybe we'll learn a thing or two together. Cheers!

What’s a lambic vs saison?
In very simple terms: A lambic is a fairly sour beer. Per BJCP, "...sourness taking the place of hop bitterness in the balance" A saison on the other hand isn't really all that sour. It has a funky smell/taste to it that is unique to a saison and is fairly well balanced otherwise between the malt and hops.
oh yeah I guess I confused the funk with the natural fermentation that Lambic has. @@dudestewbrews
Love a good saison!!! Haven’t brewed one in a while, maybe this is my sign that’s it’s time! Cheers 🍻
Such a fun/unique flavor profile that you won’t find anywhere else. Well, if you do end up brewing one, I look forward to the video you put out! 😁🍺
Either way, your videos are entertaining! Cheers 🍻
Thanks buddy! 🙂
Looks refreshing!!! I need a low ABV option, this looks like a great way to get a second beer out of the same brew day!!! Cheers 🍻
The main recipe is great too! Both definitely have their place. 😁 Have a great weekend Brian! Cheers!
I wonder if you could do something along the lines of a radler with the addition of some grapefruit peel or similar (or possibly even an oleo saccharum) ?
I had no idea what a radler was until you mentioned it. After looking up what it is now I want to try it. I bet it would work well with this beer!
I like your style ...thanks for sharing..
As in check your pants?
You're in Spokane, and don't know how to pronounce Willamette? Dude...
Gotta love Bale Breaker! I have to say, I'm surprised you got close to their beer with just a 2oz dry hop, I can't remember last time I added less than 2oz/gallon into an IPA or pale ale😅 Way to go though! Have you tried emailing the brewery with your recipe? Curious what they'd say. Hope you're digging all the fresh hop brews around the PNW right now!
They make some great beers there! Probably could have used more dry hop additions to get more of that hoppy punch but the flavor profile is pretty spot on. I can't take full credit for the recipe though. Found one online YEARS ago and modified it to my liking. Not a bad idea to try emailing the brewery and see what they say. I sure am my friend! Love me some fresh hop beers. If you're ever headed through Eastern Washington hit me up and we'll enjoy a beer together!
@@dudestewbrews Might be a while, but I went to CWU in Ellensburg so it'd be fun to make a trip out. You ever go to the Fresh Hop festival in Yakima? That's on the bucket list for me.
@@secretlevel5951 oh man I learned about it last year. It lands on the same weekend we go to Leavenworth for Oktoberfest though so we haven’t had a chance to go. Definitely on my list as well!
Great video! Any issues with the unit holding pressure? I'm considering picking one up but I've heard of some sealing issues. Cheers
Thanks! Holding pressure was an issue initially. I contacted morebeer’s support and they sent out a new lid clamp and I haven’t had issues since. I’ve brewed probably 8 batches now under pressure without issue.
Really dislike hops... I wish there were more beers that didn't have them.
No doubt this beer was lovely but at reaching 1.000 would that have lead to a very thin tasting beer with less body?
For a while I believed that, but just recently I brewed a saison that also reached 1.000. Doesn’t taste thin and has plenty of body and flavor. Either way, highly recommend trying out the beer! Cheers!
Nice brew day video! I’ll be brewing a Stout in the next month or two. I also enjoy a dry stout. Cheers!
Silly nitpicking here: 'Draught ' is pronounced 'Draft' Great video, I'm enjoying your content :)
“Pub” is English! Supposedly the Fullers strain. Imperial’s Irish offering is “Darkness”. Both great, but both can throw big diacetyl if rushed. Nice beer!
A good call out. Double checked Imperial's site and sure enough, it is an English strain, not an Irish strain. Also, yes! I can confirm that diacetyl was a concern with this beer and required more time to mature before packaging. Appreciate the input. Cheers!
Thanks for the video. I like your nice and easy approach which makes the hobby enjoyable. I also have an Anvil and they work really well. Your initial pH of 5.6 is actually spot on. The classic brewing texts point out this pH for the mash with the acid addition towards the end of the boil to bring the beer down to pH 5.3-5.1 So it is as easy as adding your lactic acid at 15min before end of boil and before the Whirlfloc. The Whirlfloc works best in the pH range of 5.2-5.1 Nice job on the end beer clarity. Looks good.
Appreciate the kind words. Try to keep things simple and cut out all of the fluff. 😉
I just made a summertime stout as well 😂 been craving a stout and really don’t care if it’s “too hot” for a stout!!! Cheers 🍻
The beauty of homebrew. Make what you want, when you want. Hope it turns out great my friend! Cheers! 🍻
Awesome job been waiting to see how this video turned out. Glad I could help
And you got to enjoy a decent amount of this beer too 😉 Always appreciate the help!
Last weekend I brewed an 'experimental' beer. It was a cross between a 'light American lager' and a 'bohemian pilsner'. I wanted a light beer but wanted to see if I could find some happy crossroads between these two categories. The experiment also played with beta-amylase times/temps vs. alpha-amylase to find a balance between being too dry (or too thin). Just watching lots of Czech pilsner yt videos as there isn't much I can do until it ferments out and lagers, and found your YT channel. 8.4 gallons had the extended beta-amylase mash times/temps to get an OG of 1.032 (goal was 1.034) with 4.2 gallons with a longer alpha-amylase times/temps resulting in an OG of 1.029. Goal is 1.007 for FG, but it could go lower given the beta/alpha experimentation. Malt was mostly the floor-malted Weyerman Bohemian, with some flaked corn, six-row, carahell, carafoam, and melanoidin - definitely walking both sides of the styles. The color of the wort was beautiful and probably an SRM of 3.0 to 3.5 range, and almost clear to start with. Hops totally Czech Saaz. WLP840 stepping fermentation up from ~50F to eventually ~58F over several weeks under about 13psi. I'm guessing it will be at least four to six weeks before I know if this was worth it, or just a waste of time. I doubt there will be any local/regional competitions to get feedback even if submitted via BJCP 34C 'Experimental Beer'.
Glad you stopped by my channel. Sounds like a great experiment. Hope it all ends up tasting delicious.
I'm halfway through and I'm bored
Yeehaw !
I trip on how much $$$ or how little you can spend on this hobby. I have fella's in our club that have $5,000 systems and their brew sucks! 😄 6 weeks in the fridge fermenting, oh it's gonna be tough! I have uploaded this recipe to Beersmith 3.0 cloud & given you all the credit. Thank you.
Expensive doesn’t mean better, for sure. Greatly appreciated! May your wait be worth it. 😁
'promo sm' 💕
I am a huge fan of BrewBuilt and eventually my entire system will be all BrewBuilt. I need to get one of these
Definitely recommend! I’m on my third batch in the Brewbuilt and the cooling jacket is a game changer. Other than a sealing issue that support helped me get a new part for, I’ve had no issues.
Did a Czech Lager and can not wait to get it on tap! Great video
Thanks! I need to brew another myself. I’ve been craving this one ever since I kicked the keg.
Did you use distilled water?
I used tap water in this brew. My city tap water leans on the malty side with the following chemistry if you'd like to recreate it 1 for 1. Bicarbonate 198ppm Calcium 43.9ppm Chloride 8ppm Magnesium 20ppm Sodium 6ppm Sulfate 4ppm
Dude.. I've been waiting for a couple years for someone to a series like this. You get yeast, water, and malt vids periodically; but no one wants to dive in on HOPS. Actually, just found your channel today! Saw you comment on Elementary"s new vid. So glad I found it. Can"t wait to see how these vids evolve.
Exactly my thought behind the series. Glad it could help a fellow homebrewer. My freezer is stocked with so many variety of hop, so expect many more in the future.
I’m assuming you had about 5 gallons in that 6 gallon Torpedo when fermenting? Any issues with the krausen sputtering through the spunding valve?
You are correct. I did roughly 5gal in the 6gal keg. No issues to report.
Nice video, that one goes on my to-brew list! Greetings from Heidelberg, Germany :D (yes, that's the same Heidelberg as in the malt name :))
Nice job keep up the great videos. I have an Anvil 6.5 and love it glad to see it on brewing videos. Question what does raising the temp to 175 for the last 10 min do? I have never done it and I’m curious. Thanks
Thanks! Love my anvil. Makes things so simple. My understanding is that raising to 170ish for 10min at the end helps the wort flow better through the grains and into the kettle.
@@dudestewbrews thanks I’m going to try it.
"Who's right & who's wrong".. in the Czech community the sulfur/ diacetyl is expected and a sure sign it's fresh. Good stuff. Don't knock it. By the time imports get to the US it's old and worn out.😅 ... So I heard...🧐
Ha, if that’s the case, then this beer is on point. lol Delicious either way.
Sulphur & diacetyl are not green apple flavors! More yeast and/or lower fermentation temps would solve the green apple flavor. Or a higher pressure level like 30PSI.
@@timpolster Correct 2 x pitch of yeast. Diacetyl is butter.
Don't you think you should leave it for a few weeks more and the apple will go away? Or that you could have raised the temp at the end of fermentation? Just asking i've never brewed a lager yet lol
A great question. In my case I believe I didn’t have enough yeast. That being said, your suggestions are correct and are exactly what I did as well. From my research I’d recommend raising the temp to room temp or a little above when you are 5 points from final gravity. So long as your yeast are happy and there are enough of them, the beer will ferment out great.
@@dudestewbrews im planning on doing one with polish hops using my fridge set to max temp i Measured 12C and to take it out to room where it is 20C at the end of fermentation. Make a starter or use two packs of yeast. Thanks for tips. Ive Heard that with w34/70 it is possible to do the whole fermentation at 20C though
@@starwars1357 very nice. Sounds like a good setup to maintain the proper temps. Hope it turns out great! Happy brewing.
Crazy I just filmed my tasting on my Czech pils today!! Great style!!! Cheers!
A fantastic style. Look forward to seeing yours! 🍻
Nicely done. Love the Anvil! I’ve been wanting to try rye in a recipe. This looks like a good one. Keep up the great videos.
Thanks for the kind words. Highly recommend this recipe. A local brewer gave me the advice of using 15-20% rye and it worked out great.
Nice job glad to see you using an Anvil Foundry! I love mine. Keep up the great videos!
Did you add a pound of base malt for efficiency (or was that a typo?) I also love Torpedo. I think originally there was something like Hallertau in there but they switched it up with Citra, and didn't know Magnum was used throughout, awesome. Crystal is a great hop btw, but so is Liberty. Looks like another winner. I haven't done many clones, since half the fun for me is crafting the recipe. But in terms of learning qualities of grain, i found that actually eating a few kernels out of the bin is a good way, because it's surprising how well you can pick out that flavor in the finished beer. Sorry for the paragraph lol
Checked my recipe against what I have in the description and the video and it looks right. BIAB unfortunately sacrifices some efficiency like you hinted towards, so it is a bit extra grain compared to a traditional mash tun system. Good call on trying some of the grain raw. I too have done that and is a good way to understand the flavors. Always appreciate the comments. Cheers!
@@dudestewbrews oh, i see, you scaled it up a bit - didn't notice your batch size (5.25 gal). i was comparing to what's on Sierra's site (13.25lbs 2row)..don't mind me lol.
@@filmscorefreak Oh yes, that makes sense. I scale most of my recipes to 5.25gal to account for some trub loss, that way a true 5gal makes it into the keg.
i wonder if lack of a hard boil contributed to the lack of hop aroma; but maybe also it was higher ferm temps (releasing more co2, thus hop aroma) and being a pretty high abv (i've noticed even in pro/commercial beers hop aroma tends to be less with high abv). nonetheless, looks excellent!
All great thoughts. I'm leaning towards the high ABV thought, any of those could apply though. Will definitely be remaking this one in the future with a lower ABV target.
It’s so shiny! Can’t wait to taste what comes out of this bad boy!
Great unboxing, and we love hearing your first impressions. We're looking forward to seeing you make some great creations with this guy! Cheers 🍻
