I will try the closed loop trick next time I transfer to keg. Normally I just hook fv straight up to gas and keep the keg gas post open. Yes have to agree that for hoppy beers, pressure fermenting is a game changer. It just makes it smell and taste fresher and cleaner than you'd ever get from a bucket. Also, the way I look at it is that as long as you are using (and enjoying using) the expensive equipment regularly then that justifies the cost.

@7:50 did you purge the transfer line too?

Just bought a Fermzilla Allrounder mostly for the ability to have an oxygen free process. But I’m looking forward to getting into the wonderful world of pressure fermentation. Your beer sounds absolutely banging! Cheers mate. 🍺

Use verdant yeast, bloody beast, ive done 20 brews on the one packet,

Yes it is, you should have two, one for the yeast, you won't have to hop on your yeast

Meat low carb to get healthy, watch the magic work, ditch the oats

Awesome!! 🍻🍻smooth sailing!!

Well thanks a lot Rick mate now you’ve got me looking at pressure fermenting. As if I haven’t got enough kit already🤪🤪🤪. Brilliant video by the way and a cracking beer by the looks of it

This needs a comment. You sound very Brittish, however using metric units! Cheers for that. Nice video! Enjoyed every bit. Will come back to your channel ❤

Happy day! So stoked that your pressure fermenting and close transferred paid off mate. Cheers 🍻

So great points there Rick. My thoughts are closed transfer and hope bong being handy for a lot of dry hopping for sure , otherwise not necessary, IMO. It's awesome that you've made a great brew and we will see if you're still using it this time next year. You've made a lot of very good beers in the past which is awesome. Well done and very interesting video. Cheers mate😎👍

Just brewed a double decoction Czech Dark Lager pressure fermented at 15 psi with Czech lager yeast at 65 F. Tasting great after kegging!

Blimey funny how costs tot up when ya passion for beer n brewing ignites😂 turned out well for a home recipe..excellent Rick👏👏

I did the same impulse buy on a hop bong!… lol. Another great video 🍻

Another great video Rick. Was this your own recipe or one from a book? Which book if it was? Love your infectious enthusiasm…..keep up the good work and happy brewing! Cheers! 🍺🍺

Cracking beer Rick. I have been looking at buying one of those fermenters for a month or so. I thought it was possible to add hops from the bottom collection vessel but i am not sure? The wife brewed a NEIPA on Tuesday this week as I am not able to lift stuff yet. She used all South African hops so maybe it’s a SAIPA😂 As usual the worry is putting the 150 gram dry hop in and transferring to the keg without getting the oxygen in.

Three things that have transformed my beers: 1. R.O. water, then dilute with tap water. 2. 1 litre yeast starters 3. Pressure fermentation for lager yeasts My last 8 or 9 brews have kicked arse due to the above. Great videos, great work, pal.

Really interesting review Rick, you are completely correct when you say that the cost of the homebrew hobby never stops 😂

After a rough day gardening in a very sunny and hot day i decided top pour a bitter. Ended up at the computer an a new video was there, enjoying yor story - happy days!😃 And yes - with my two allrounders i´ve been more consistant and especially on the lagers and some more hoppy brews. Had a lot of really good beers in the buckets as well and it´s totally possible to make nice bitters an so on with close transfers with the buckets. But i´m with you on this - these fermenters ar another level! Thank´s for another uplifting video! 🍻

Infectious enthusiasm as per usual. Chomping at the bit to get back at it. Watch this space. Citra and mosiac is a cheat code for IPA really isnt it? I'd been pressure fermentating for years (albeit with no hop bong) i sort of take it for granted now. I dont do it for all my beers especislly now i have the Stainless, it can in theory hold 3psi but ive never tried it. In terms of NEIPA, ive done a grand total of 1 in my 'career' so im somewhat of an expert, all the closed transfer keeoing O2 out is essential, but id also consider dipping your toes in the water treatment world.... even buy some mineral water from tesco, the extra silky mouthfeel when you get it right is totally worth it. Great vid as always mate. Cheers! 🎉

Great clip and beer again Rick! He who dares wins eh! 🍺😉👍

Great stuff . Congratulations 🤩Like what Big Banana brewing said . It’s all a bit of fun and I personally know what a great release it is to just chat about beer into a camera lol . All the best 🎉 🍻

Well done mate, Keep em coming. Far more watchable than what er indoors watches so I get to sit in shed and catch up with legends like yourself. Cheers again.

Awesome brew on!!! Smooth sailing! 🍻

Cheers Rick, outstanding voice mate🤣🤣😎👍

Oooh me ears😂 good look with the brew Rick👍

Congratulations on reaching 200 videos. Long may they continue! Cheers!

Congrats on the 200th video, looking forward to the next 200, it’s fun for you to make it’s even more fun for us to watch. Cheers 🍻

Excellent Rick, well done 👏

Thanks for the shout out. I wasn't expecting that. I'm really glad to see how much you've enjoyed that yeast, and I look forward to seeing how your next brew with it goes.👍🍺

I love your videos, your enthusiasm is infectious, cheers 🍻

It’s a celebration 🎉 🍻🍻awesomeness! Cheers to the future!

Congratulations on a major milestone mate. You hit the nail on the head by saying, do the videos first and foremost for yourself, because you enjoy it. It's what keeps you going. It's also a great archive you can look back on. I'm at an age now, where I forget some of the earlier videos I've made, but it's cool to remind myself what I've brewed in the past. Here's to the next 200 videos. Cheers 🍻

Only 40 seconds in and I think ye have had a triple or two😀

Well done Rick...you're always very entertaining (and on the move😂) brew some fantastic ales..like u say daily vids are not for u( too much pressure on yourself) keep going mate...your friend Slurpy 😊🍺👏👏

I can't recommend the Kegmenter enough (BKT and Angel sell them), it's basically a stainless Fermzilla, and fits in an undercounter. I've got two, love them.

You've done it all at this point, the tricky thing is trying not to churn out the same video all the time (which we all do anyway). 200 videos is loads and proof you're in it for the long haul and not too bothered about subs and views. It's just a bit of fun and you're learning new skills all the time like improving the editing and that side of it. Cheers 🍻

Nice one mate congrats on getting to 200 great video

Congratulations to a milestone!🎉📯 I really, really like to watch your videos! 🍻

Congratulations, Rick, keepb'em coming, thoroughly enjoy watching you. Always honest and jovial 👌👏👏👏🍺

Congrats on 200! Checking in from the US! I think your channel is doing well because you are so positive and upbeat! And of course that great accent doesn’t hurt… lol 🍻 keep it up!

Congratulations on achieving this magnificent milestone. Onwards and upwards!

Great work Rick :) shall be raising a glass to celebrate later on cheers :)

Nice update and a lovely beer there! NovaLager yeast is hard to beat. Congrats on the 200 video milestone. Cool T-shirt. The Tropical England blend of hops looks interesting. I absolutely love Paris. People can say what they want about France. But the band I used to be in, American Dog, could not have existed without the awesome French rock n' roll fans. Cheers mate! 🍺

43 hours to go Rick, will celebrate with a beer, hope your having a great one cheers :)

Awesome update! Congratulations on the milestone 🍻🎉🎉smooth sailing!

That lager settled down nicely Rick...see ya next week on the big 200👍

Congrats on the 220+ well done Rick. Some nice brews coming on. Cheers

yep I had a blue grifter with a lollipop stick on the spokes lol, loved the vlog 👍
