- From pouch to glass we brew a craft quality Red IPA from the Mangrove Jacks Craft Series Kit.
We cover the recipe, show the process steps and equipment we use but most importantly the finished product made using ths kit!
And what did we get?
A big bold brew with complex citrus and fruit notes backed by a solid malt character of toasted and nutty flavours and a big bitterness on the end of the brew. Thumbs up in our books. - Jak na to + styl
Always good to watch your videos bud. My personal wish list grows. :)
The upside is there is always brew swaps!
Great video looking forward to doing this one next. Busy wrapping a Juicy Session. Just a question how do you carbonise your beer, batch priming , Carbon drops or measured Dextrose or plain sugar per bottle? Thanks for the great content
Cheers Darren!
Thanks for the generous comment. I use carb drops. I find it easier and quicker. But carb drops work best in 350 - 375ml bottles (1 carb drop) or 750ml bottles (2 carb drops). If you're on 500ml bottles it might be easier to look at an alternative. Judging by the comments and questions I see in our group I think most people would measure dextrose into the bottle rather than batch prime.
Great to see you again. Nice beer there and honest review, assessment & tips. What's refreshing about your channel is the respect given to extract-based brewing. I live in the US, where the hobby is in a serious, rapid free-fall decline (the AHA has even cancelled Homebrewcon this year). Shops no longer carry kits. This decline is mostly because the hobby is now so highly technical that novice-wannabe homebrewers are scared away by stainless steel contraptions, water calculations, yeast starters, pressure fermenting, closed transfer, etc. Nothing wrong with that stuff, but the US needs to follow your lead and remind folks that homebrewing is super easy, so that the hobby can thrive here like it once did. Sounds like you've got a lot coming up. Looking forward to that. Cheers mate!🍺🍻
Hey,
Thanks for the support. We really appreciate the feedback.
We had heard people say that the US was a lot more focussed on grain based approaches. To a degree this is something that is happening in NZ too, and was a big part of why we committed ourselves to kit brewing.
