David, I brewed a version, my own version, of this and absolutely fell in love with it. Incredibly drinkable, delicious, and 3-4 pints don't incapacitate you. And yet it has all the flavor of a much bigger beer. Brewed with verdant for 2 days with 2-3 psi then raised to 12 psi I served it at the brew club meeting on day 5 and people couldn't believe a beer brewed on Monday could be good on Friday, and it has only improved since. Thanks for the inspiration. It has also inspired me to make a standard bitter as another session beer.
Great to hear. I have a video recently with a different version that you try.

Interesting
🍻🍻🍻
I'm definitely a fan of the style, going to give it a go myself soon. Great video.
Irish Craft Beer Show Great stuff :) Glad you enjoyed it :)
Very nice brew video what a lovely calm voice you have, would love to see a brown ale video if possible. Cheers. Jim
The Old Farts Brewery I do actually have a brown ale on the channel already, its one of my older videos though :)
David Heath will take a look Cheers Jim
Cannot believe I have not seen this before. Yes My Dad and all of his Miner collegues drank Mild. In my home town area Ilkeston/Derbyshire the Mild was dark and there were a lot of MIners (at the time). In my formative years I drank Bitter one shilling and ten pence a pint. :-)) it's a while ago. Some years later on chance I stopped at a pub in the middle of nowhere and they had a light Whitbreads Mild, I regretted not having drank Mild earlier. I believe that the rumour that slops went back into the Mild was false for any Pub worthy of the name. Beer, Crisps and Darts with the occaisional trip across to the Dance Hall across the way. I didn't start home brewing until afew years later. Ingredients were not easy to get although Boots had a 4 lb can of Malt Extract and most, perhaps all Chemists had Wine making stuff and DME type Malt. I am not sure how long after starting I tried an All Grain but it would not have been more than a year and the books referred to the crushing of the Malt as "Cracking" and my first batch was done just that way with a rolling pin and a baking tray. The first cannot have had much of an OG but later I brewed regularly, say an a two-three week cycle and I used perhaps 9 or 10 pounds of grain and I made the result up to 1.045 OG (I have no idea why) with a few ounces of sugar so my extract was not too bad now I know more and can jusge.
Tis good to see the old folk reminiscing don'y you think :-)). Thanks for the video.
Haha thanks James, all interesting stuff. The mild is a masterpiece when done well. I think the slops rumour was an industry started thing, not every brewery could produce a good one! I hope the mild will see a revival one day but that time is not now with higher alcohol beers taking the spotlight.
Looks like I need to get more aggressice with my mash paddle. Great tips, Cheers!
Beer By The Numbers work it like you mean it :)
Brewed this using voss kveik turned out great thanks for sharing the recipe, much appreciated.
Great to hear, I really like how this has the taste of a stronger beer :)
Thank you. Very good video. I will brew a mild soon.
Great, glad you enjoyed it. Plenty more on my channel :)
Your heat belt looks the same as the chinese one I have with same unprotected soft insulation on the mains cable which concerned me somewhat. I removed the plug and slid over lapping sections of 6.4 mm shrink tubing over both wires and once shrunk down it provided strength and protection against shock hazard.
Ive had it for a long long time without an issues :)
I'm brewing this tonight in Taipa, NZ. Love your work!
+tclak Great, I am sure you will enjoy it :)
One of my favourite styles to drink, and one I have had a lot of success brewing. I will try the Mangrove Jack's yeast on my next mild. Thanks David.
+Peter Davis I am sure you will be impressed Peter :)
With your mild ale, I think you described its thickness almost like an oatmeal. What would be the liquor to grist ratio be? Would 2 be too low, 3 too high?
Between 2.5 to 3.2 is about right :)
Great video Sir very informative Cheers will keep watching
The Crewe Wolf Glad you enjoyed it :)
David: G'day. What about delaying your next presentation until you have your next brew ready to drink. It'd be great to see The Mild Man beautifully poured out for real inspiration.
John Freeborn Ive given much thought about how to do things and ive come to the conclusion that I really cannot do it this way because it means keeping alot of video footage for extended time. There will be a tasting video where the mild gets full focus later on. Thanks for your input :)
Nice recipe mate! Need to re watch for the recipe cheers
Many thanks Ken :)
David Heath Homebrew only thing is I’m going to have to use a different yeast
Many will work. S04, Nottingham etc.
David Heath Homebrew going to use Nottingham - might even post it! Cheers mate!
Great, do that :)
As a kindly suggestion, I wish to watch a Gose style beer that it seems a little bit tricky... Thanks. Good video as always
Tono TheQuick Thanks , I will keep that idea in mind :)
I brewed this a few months ago very good. Then one of my local breweries made their own batch and they used nitro, its even better.
Nitro is awesome for sure :)
Great video David
thanks for sharing how a guiness clone in the grainfather
+Rich Mottershaw Glad you enjoyed it. I tend to brew stouts with abit more taste than regular guiness. Try the foreign extra stout recipe that I shared a year ago on the channel that is close to the stronger guiness. Very nice beer that :)
Giving this another go as well!
Great, I really love this one myself :)
Howzit David, really enjoyed this video, thank you. Going to make a batch on Sunday whilst watching the Springboks hopefully not lose to Japan in the Rugby World Cup Quarterfinals. I always look at reviving old styles as a home brewer because its so easy to buy an IPA or Imperial Stout at the bottle store why not rather get into the time machine and have a crack at a traditional, not so common brew, making a Mild has frankly got me more than mildly excited :). I once did the George Washington beer, frankly that was pants!!! No idea how those buggers won independence drinking that
Have you ever tried making a Kentucky Common? I did it once just before the last football world cup and all the lads came around and to my surprise loved it. (My surprise was based upon my brewing skills not the style). I keep promising to make another.
I would love to see your advice/ interpretation on this old school long lost american style
Cheers
Thanks Tom, great to hear :) Yes some styles are just harder to get these days but it is great to brew them. I did try one of the Whitehouse beers once, was ok. :)
@@DavidHeathHomebrew Would you call an Irish red ale mild?
@@DavidHeathHomebrew Mild ale used to mean fresh as opposed to stale ale for example porter that was not aged in vats would have been mild porter. It was also a pale ale that by today’s standard would be a bitter regarding IBU’s and quite strong up to 7 percent until world war one.
No, an Irish red is not even Irish in reality and not a mild either 🍻🍻🍻
@@DavidHeathHomebrew I know French but mild was brewed by two breweries in Ireland until the 1950’s all of which came under Guinness control
another great tutorial
alan Beresford Glad you enjoyed it Alan :)
As always thanks for the great video. I figured out what I like about your style, its that you video and then dialogue over later. It’s nice not to hear the breathing that is present on most videos as they try and talk and work at the same time. This way video and verbal don’t get in each other’s way. On the Kviek yeast subject, are there any beer styles you think they would not work with? Looking to get my hands on some in the NW USA and see what it does for my brews. Thanks again!
Thanks Christian. Doing the dialogue later also ensures that the content is complete and precise :)
So far kveik seems to offer a solution for all styles except lager but apparently some say this is possible with certain strains at lower temps. I am yet to try it though.
Hello david great videos you have here on yout Chanel i have learned alot :) Will espe kveik be any good in this style of beer here
Many thanks Danni. Yes kveik works great. For this one Framgarden or Voss gjernes will be good.
@@DavidHeathHomebrew i Will give it a go i have voss gemt in the freezer
Not sure if you've covered it before but what kind of water do you use? Tap or Bottled? Also, do you do water additions? Cheers to another fantastic video!
Eric Thilges I am very lucky here. The area I live in has fantastic water that comes from the local mountains, all I do is some very minor ph adjustment.
I do enjoy a good mild. Shame they are so hard to find nowadays. Cheers
+Daft Cat Brewing Yes its crazy really but we can brew it when we want :)
Mr Heath! I've got a crop of Willamette which is due to be hopped in 16 hours. Looking online the closest recommendations to this use this hop is an english ale, as fuggles is the closest hop. Would you recommend this recipe in lieu of fuggles? Also, any tips on wet hopping?
Hey Ben, yes this can sub with no problems for fuggles or EKG. I would just use these hops for late boil additions or dry hopping as the AA% will be unknown. After the first end beer you will be able to judge if you can just go with regular weights or adjust up or down
I am going to attempt my first mild recipe. I will be using RO water, do you have a favorite water profile for this style of beer? I’ve seen Burtonized water to very soft water being used and I have no idea what to pick
The Burton profile will work very well.
Thank you. I’ll let you know how it goes
Thanks for this David. I am planning to brew it this weekend and was wondering if I could get away with subbing the Special II for Special I and the Crystals for Simpsons Crystal Light 113 EBC. Just trying to use what I’ve got. Cheers
Sure but it will change the recipe into something a little different. Special one has more subdued flavour for example.
Hi David, enjoying your videos thanks for taking the time to share. Do you use water treatments and conduct Ph readings? If so it would be great to see this in your videos.
I am very lucky here. The area I live in has fantastic water that comes from the local mountains, all I do is some very minor ph adjustment. I have shown this is some videos on the channel. I use ph 5.2 lock, which works just great for my water.
Hi David, great video.
I have been thinking about doing a mild for a while, as it's very difficult to buy it in bottle form and I like different styles of beer at hand.
Have you ever used Windsor yeast, I've heard it's good for this style?
Andrew Levett Glad you liked it Andrew. Sure Windsor yeast should be fine.
The grain bill here is about 3.8Kg grain. Is that enough for a 25l batch?
Sure, this is a low alcohol end beer.
I was in Liverpool about 30 years ago and someone bought me a "mixed", half bitter and half mild. It was perhaps the best pint I've ever had. I now live in Asia so I can't get it. Do they still serve mild in pubs in England?
Not that ive seen but I only visit these days myself.
@@DavidHeathHomebrew Thanks, I'm sorry to hear that.
Thanks, no problem, I live in Norway these days :)
Love your videos! After seeing this video, do you still rather get O2 into the worh this way than using pure O2? I have a O2 system, but dont care to use it if it is not needed.
God jul.
Mvh
Vidar
Great, thank you :) I am getting fast and healthy fermentations without using pure O2.
Thank you for another great video, David. I think, I will try to brew this one.
+Piotr Czarny Go for it, this is a great beer in my opinion :)
I'm have bought the ingredients for this one, but could not obtain the M03 yeast. I have replaced it with Wyeast 1028 London Ale. Hopefully it will turn out OK. :-)
Piotr Czarny That will work :)
I have brewed this one yesterday. :-) I ended up using Wyeast 1098 british ale.
I look forward to tasting it. :-) I like those mild ales quite a lot.
+Piotr Czarny Great, that yeast will work well. Hope you enjoy it. I find it peaks after 6 weeks but is very drinkable sooner.
Great video as always. As a GF newbie, (but with 20 brews on the stove) what do you think I should start with? Is this recipe a good one to start? Cheers!
Jose Alex Sant Anna I would start with what you want to drink within reason. Very strong beers take longer to be ready and lagers require much lower temperatures. Some more unusual styles require more but most "regular beer" are very similar in terms of the brew. Lots more on my channel, see what you fancy :)
Hi David,
I’m going to experiment with roasted chestnuts in my next brew and wondering where you’d recommend using them in the brewing process…? Thanks :)
I would suggest adding them late in the boil. 600g for 20L seems to be the sweet spot for flavour without compromise to the beers head retention.
@@DavidHeathHomebrew awesome, many thanks! Will persevere 👍
Cheers Sam 🍻🍻
Great video as always 😊
I would like a video with a parigyle with a barley wine and a pale ale. I'm interested in this after watching GF's blog.
I am also intrested in making a light beer (2,2%). Is it hard to make in a GF?
Jonas Löfkvist Im glad you enjoyed it :) Nice idea, thanks for that.
I Went in a microbrewery lately in Sherbrooke, Quebec, Canada. The brew-master is a French bloke. I tried a pint of his "English black pepper ale". He did not accept to give me his recipe but he told me very quickly and secretly: "1g/liter of grinded black pepper at 0 min". He told me to use an English yeast. What do you think of using your Mild English Ale to try a black pepper version? What do you think David?
Pepper can certainly compliment British and Belgian styles. 1g per litre is probably double what I feel fits for most peoples tastes though but naturally experimentation is best for your own taste.
David Heath Homebrew Ho! All right then. Great advise. I will brew it with something in-between. I will try it with .75 g/l. I will adjust afterward for a further edition. Thank you David.
Experimentation is the most fun part of brewing for me :)
Hi David, another really helpful video. Any suggestions as to the right sort of water chemistry?
Hi, I cannot see which video you replied to sadly. With water it is best to match the countries type for the beer style. So for a British Porter look for a London profile. For kolsch go German. All of this is built into packages like Brun water and Brewfather.
Nice recipe, defo going to my to-do list!
Any suggestions simple 1 grain, 1 hop brew? I'd like to get to know flavour profiles and I feel like this might be a good approach. Thoughts?
HappyDeux Smash beers are a great way to get started for sure. I suggest you pick a hop that you like that is dual purpose and give it a go. After that you could start adding a different new grain at a time to see the changes that you get. This approach is perfect for small batch sizes :)
Nice video David! I'm brewing a mild with WLP002 - pressure fermentation @ 10Psi, yay or nay? :)
Thank you. I would not use pressure. You really want the esters from the yeast for this style :)
I can't seem to find the M03 yeast anywhere. Could you recommend a substitution? As usual - great video!
Most English strains will work. MJ liberty ale or Fermentis S-04 for example. Hope this helps :)
The idea that milds are the seckond runnings of stouts/porters is wrong?
That is in part what they were for sure, or in some cases watered down from stronger beers.
how to brew a style beer, like Theakston Old Peculier Beer, or other porter type ales. I would also be interested in recommendations for brewing equipment, as just starting out. Thanks Mick
Hi Mick, I have a guide to the classic English porter here:- czcams.com/video/A4Y39YCZegg/video.html
Also you will see equipment recommend in this playlist:- czcams.com/play/PLeY07JqsrXM8qdQcqQnMGB2T5h9PLpt_Z.html
It is still current.
Hi Dave, if the grain bill is under 4kgs, as per this one, will this affect the Grainfather? Sorry, complete noob, have only opened my GF and will be using for the first time when I return from work. Thanks, Chris
No, it will be fine :) For even smaller brews you can buy the small batch pipework.
@@DavidHeathHomebrew Thank you. Much appreciated.
So I tasted this after a week in the bottle and it's promising! Used Gladfield (NZ) malts as a substitute.
+tclak That will work. Mines still in a keg and tasting very nice. It is one of my beers that will be BJCP judged later. Scores and tasting notes will go into a video shortly after :)
On further exploration and with a bit of age in the bottle I'm happy to report that this Mild Man Ale recipe is really, really good! Delicious, even.
+tclak Thats always been my experience with this recipe :) It tends to taste like a stronger style ale at 5% also.
Great video as always! The only thing that I missed was your playlist. What should one be listening to while brewing this? :)
🍻🍻🍻
Thanks for the video David. One question - do you ever hydrate your yeast prior to pitching and if so do you notice a difference between that and the sprinkle method?
Hey Mike, what you see is what I do. I have hydrated previously but noticed little difference. I notice that Mangrove jacks yeast say that there is no need to do it with theirs also.
Thanks David, wondering if I was adding an extra 15 minutes for no reason
David big fan of your channel ..I bet you know haha...But I was wondering do you brew as a profession meaning I'm from Canada and we have actual courses you can take to be a brewer ...You don't happen to do it as a profession do you or for that matter work in the industry ?
Ed I am now an ex professional brewer now but I still work in the industry :)
David Heath figured ...thanks David
Great vid, did you follow water volumes as per the app?
Vic Romano Glad you liked it Vic, yes I did :)
Great. I'm going to try this, thanks.
David what's the latest with the Grainfather recipe creator?
mlh47 All I can say it that its coming soon! Its not far off now :)
Fantastically interesting video very well done....scares me to death though!!!! I think I will stick to kits for now, you make the all grain process look simple and trouble free, but for me it would be far too complicated - not great at DIY!
🍻🍻🍻
Any chance you could brew a lager?
+Conn Hastings lol I was waiting for that :)
i David can you show the mash and sparging water amounts for the Grainfather .
George Jones There are calculators for this on the Grainfather.com website under tools :)
thanks David good vid.
George Jones Glad you enjoyed it. I put this beer in my kegerator last night, turned out very well :) Plenty more on this channel :)
Hi David i just need to make sum small brews with the small pipe work. Do you just divide everything except the water
George Jones The bittering hop cannot be divided. Very soon the GF recipe creator will be released. That will do conversions for you. Until that beersmith has a free trial :p
I thought you didn't need aeration when using dry yeast.
You dont but this video was made before that news came :)
@@DavidHeathHomebrew I see. That makes sense. I look forward to trying your recipe this weekend. I have moved from 3 vessel to Grainfather, for ease of brew. Cheers for the Grainfather hints and tips.
I hope you enjoy it as much as I do :) Yes, I never regret moving to single vessel electric :)
