It's so cool to have my own The Homebrew Challenge recipe kits available now. The very first one (in both all-grain and extract versions) is here for this week's beer: www.atlanticbrewsupply.com/search.asp?keyword=youtuber&search=Go
Will it be available as 2.5 gallon kit?
The Homebrew Challenge where do u get that storage container from for your grain I can’t find anything big enough
At 6:37 What is that mesh bucket/basket you are using to Mash ? I have never seen one of those before, it reminds me of the brew-in-a-bag mash
Love that this kit is available from ABS, my local shop as well! And I was looking for a nice ale for summer to brew, I think this will do the trick! Keep up the great work!!
Justin The Fixer it is biab basket. He’s using the Clawhammer biab system.
There's a very easy way to dry hop without removing your lid on your fermenter. Buy the smaller version to the hop basket your using. When you first add your wort to the fermenter. Put the hops you are using in the hop basket and place it against the inside of the lid. Then place a magnet on the outside of the lid to hold the hop basket in place. Once you are ready to dry hop. Just pull the magnet off the lid and your basket will fall right in.
I really am going to have to try this!
Assuming that's made of stainless steel, how magnetic would that be?
SS is not very magnetic.
You would have to place another magnet in the basket. Is that ok to leave in beer? ??
I use magnets to dry hop in a pressure fermenter, works great
I had to find a piece of metal that is SS coated. I went to my local bolt and screw shop and they hooked me up.
That was awesome to see your son participate in your homebrew challenge quite the citrus flavor LOL.
You can definitely see how much better the later videos are, but this is still a good one.
Brewed this one 2 weeks back. Turned out really nice. Thanks
Great to have your son helping out! Loved the citrus influence. Appreciate the local homebrew store helping us all out for the future.
Tilt Hydrometer sounds like a great idea for a Firmzilla all rounder too! Legend.
I'm a huge fan of British beers. The yeast has this in your face flavor that I absolutely love. I prefer imperial pub, I actually won my first gold with a English mild and pub yeast.
I was deeply hoping that Oliver would take a sip.
😆 😵
good job with the kits.......
I thought it needed clarity but judging from your version it seems right on track. A hint of lemon which is an unexpected bonus. I am not sure I would make it again, but it's good.
Cute tasting session!
I have a tip for you: Instead of placing the hop sleeve inside the fermenter, place it in the keg. That way, you can purge the keg, transfer in an oxygen-reduced way, and then transfer from the keg into a clean keg for serving and longer shelf stability.
Ok yeah so dry hop in a staging keg then transfer out into a serving keg. Cool idea.
In February I stopped by Atlantic Brew Supply and purchased 165lbs of pilsner malt for my yearly supply! Great place to go.
Wow. Hope you had help getting that to the car. 💪
Love golden ales. It's a regular in my summer rotation. It's next on my list once this Belgian single is done.
My recipe is 95% maris otter though and challenger is my go to bittering hop.
Belgian Single is on my list.. hope yours turns out well
@@TheHomebrewChallenge it got bottled yesterday. Finished a tad higher in Abv than I'd planned as the yeast was a monster. Tasted good though. The real test will be in 3 weeks.
I'm now stepping up the WLP007 for tomorrow's golden ale.
Just wanted to like anything that brings more attention to the British Golden Ale. I have fallen in love with the style, as it is so drinkable and refreshing. More people need to know about 12A in the BJCP.
Completely agree!
It's amazing that it's your first day hop!
Just made one 2 weeks ago with all galaxy hops... It's almost gone. Awesome style to show off hops.
Love watching all your videos. So entertaining and full of knowledge. One of my fav channels. Keep up with the good work.
in uk , your son could taste the beer, as legally children can drink alcohol at home from the age of 5,hence why we like to drink beer so much
British spring barley Pale Ale malt is better for this style. More strawy, grainy, fine, light and sweetish(in taste, not the beer) with a touch of British Cara malt, so 5 to 10% accentuate the taste of it. Goldings is good, but some newer varieties could be better, like Pioneer, Boudicea, WGV, First Gold or Admiral, maybe in combination with Goldings.
This was good. Really liked it.
Excellent job by the guest evaluator! Btw very cool about the partnership, congrats!
What a great helper you have
I'll be using the grain bill but I'm experimenting with "challenger" & "East kent goldings (EKG)" hops
Great video Martin, as usual. Interesting comments on dry hopping. Keep on with this awesome work. Cheers!
Brewing this today! Only thing is your using 1.5 oz for the bittering, but the kits and instructions are shipping out with 1 oz fuggle. Not a big deal just a heads up.
Ordered the Golden Ale, along with an English Mild. Looking forward to brewing it while in lockdown.
That colour is amazing , I use a hop bag at the moment but that would be a great upgrade. I'm going to give that recipe a go ready for summer, hopefully lock down in the uk will be over and I can share it. I have some great beers on my kegerator at the moment but no one to share them with and show off so doing more youtube vids. Another great vid good luck with the challenge watching with anticipation 👍🍻
Petition for him to start making non alcoholic versions of his beers for his son to try hahha
Truly like you work! I might be wrong, but it should be possible to get the aroma of the hops, without their bitterness, by infusing them at a lower temp just before cooling and adding yeast. Since you use an electronic controlled system, it should be even easier! This way you'd eliminate the oxygen variable, you might want to check this with clawhammer supllies
Yeah good suggestion. Effectively adding as a whirlpool hop addition.
thumbs up again Martin........is Oliver having Neipa?...........enjoy guys....
Haha sure looks like it!
Nice. British Golden ale... my #1 style and one I brew regularly :)
Great Video. Glad to see your son helping you. #STAYSAFE.
I was chatting with a friend today about dry hopping. He happens to live in NC also. A couple coincidences..? I don't know but congratulations on the kits!🍻
should add salts with kit too, based on RO water to match your beer ;)
Loving the videos and recipes. Short, sharp, to the point and nicely put together. Curious as to why you filter your water though.
Thanks. It’s a standard RV water filter
I’ve been playing around brewing a British Golden Ales, next batch going to try Wyeast 1469 West Yorkshire Ale and see if that brings out some different flavours 🏴🍻
1469 is my go-to yeast for British styles, I make a British Golden Ale with EKG and Saaz and the West Yorkshire strain makes a very good beer of that combo.
Very cool Martin!
Great job, Oliver!
I'm color blind. Can't tell the difference between the beer and the orange juice.
well done, I think i might have to try my hand at this beer. cheers
Hello Martin, British Golden Ale is a lovely drink, especially for summer drinking. Really like your channel, you've got a good, personable way of explaining things. How come you're so slim-do you drink any of your beers?
Thank you 😊
Nice twist in the end with your son 😂
I really don't think popping the lid to dry hop in your SS bucket will introduce much of any O2. There will be a substantial CO2 layer in the deadspace that will prevent oxidation. I've popped my buckets open post fermentation for all sorts of reasons; to put things in, take things out, or just take readings. I've even stirred a few times for specific reasons with post-fermentation additions. I've not once had an oxidation issue. As long as you are smart in your approach, there's little chance in this off flavor occurring.
If you are still worrisome of oxidation potential, you could always take a keg disconnect off your CO2 hose and put a fresh layer on top before closing the lid. That will push out any potential O2.
This whole layer of protective layer of CO2 is homebrew logic mythology, gases don’t act like this and readily mix with one another quite rapidly. The more steps you take to avoid oxidation the better.
Oliver is a handsome young lad, another good vid, cheers
I have the same "hop sleaves" and what I encountered is the little ring at the top was rusting. I removed them and it's fine now. Just a heads up. I bought mine a couple years ago so maybe the issue has been addressed.
Thanks. Will keep an eye out for that.
Awesome Martin! Or we should start calling you Mr Maris Otter ha!
Glad to see your back on the CHS BIAB, I just got mine 2 weeks ago and have already done two 5 gallon batches.
Are you able to take a request to brew an Australian Gold Lager? Possibly featuring Pride of Ringwood hops
Mr Maris Otter 😂
Hello Sir. Really great videos and info you give us!! I am from Perú, South America.
I recently purchased a Golden kit in a local market. But I am not sure about the ingredients they sold me.
The kit comes with: Pilsen malt, Fuggles hope, S-04 yeast and some dextrose. Can I get a Golden Ale with these ingredients??
I'll appreciate all the help. 🙏
Yes you’ll certainly get a malt forward pale beer. Good luck.
Martin, do you think this recipe would work well with fresh/wet fuggle hops for the second hop addition and pellet fuggle for the dry hopping?
Hi, Martin, I really enjoy your channel. I wanted to mention that the kit has the wrong description for the all-grain version, it’s the extract version.
Thanks. Will point that out.
Loving this series, any chance your will share your recipes on Beersmith?
They’re all in my local Beersmith account. Need to look into how to share them on the cloud I guess.
@@TheHomebrewChallenge That would be great.
@@TheHomebrewChallenge I Would really appreciate this as well Martin.
Your definition of dry hopping is wrong. Now a days we add hops at the end of fermentation when we rise temperature.
Love it including your son
Great Video Martin! One question: For how long did you dry hop this beauty? In case you pointed it out and i missed it, I apologise
What about sugar ???is it not necessary??
If I add hops after initial fermentation is there a chance of diacetyl formation?
What about keg hopping? I keg hop all the time and it really seems to eliminate any oxidized flavor
That’s a good idea. Do you ever take the hops out or just leave them in the keg?
@@TheHomebrewChallenge what I do is I first suspend some hops in a bag from a piece of dental floss into the keg. I tie the floss to the handle so the hops are high up in the keg but not above the beer level. They stay suspended in the beer until The beer level drops below them
I use the same hop contraption but keg hop not fermenter dry hop
I keg hop all the time for the IPA recipes, don't worry about the hops in the keg. Leave them in there and don't worry about it, I guess it's the lower serving temperature at around 3c or 37.4f so they don't produce any grassy or herbal notes. Make life easy and drink wonderful hoppy beer until you kick the keg. Wow I'm gonna try this British Golden Ale as I'm a Brit too. Long live British Ales and the home of the IPA. One tip which I found important, try to use leaf hops if you can or try to sandwich pellet hops in between some leaf hops as this stops some hop particles from passing through that fine mesh. Also use glass marbles to weigh that keg hopper down if you use loads of hops too. Make sure it's maximum half full as the hops expand a lot as well. (had this keg hopper open once and blocked the beer out tube, totally nightmare which cost 3/4 of a keg.....arrrgggghhhh!) Love the show.
Hi Martin this beer is it possible to brew it as partial mash? im pretty new to this and havent done anything other than coopers kits so far but id like to try and brew this beer but i dont have a big pot and they cost a fortune here in Iceland so untill i decide to go all in im going to stick to my 25l soup pot :) how can i figure out a way to make it with grain and dme?
On 7:22 what is that container on the left for? Is it for hops as well?
🍻
Hi Martin, thanks for the good tips. Funnily enough, I've just dry hopped my first beer in my home brewing "career" and used the same cylinder you did. I had a question to you. I also dropped the hops before final gravity was obtained. How to you reconcile leaving enough time to let the beer finish (absorb byproducts and all) and not leaving the hops for too long? Two days after dry hoping, my FG moved by .001. So I'll check in 2 more days, I guess if it didn't move I will cold crash. How do you go about that bit? Thanks!
Hi Martin. Hope you and yours are staying safe. I noticed your UK Fuggle hops stated 6% 2017 on the footage, but the recipe (above) states it's 4.5%, did you re-calculate? . Is there a way to check Alpha Acids for aged hops? Cheers and great job Oliver.
Any reason why your clarity has seemed to go sideways lately?
Iliff Avenue Brewhouse right? It could be the London Ale iii yeast. I’ve used it for a London Pride and it was super cloudy. Switched the Pub Ale from Imperial. Much better.
@@gib859 Yeah I thought it might have to do with switching from lagers to ale. Even though London III is used a lot in NEIPA it's actually supposed to have high floc and I have heard of it clearing quite easy.
Probably should look into using Irish moss or gelatin. The lagers would have a good long time to clear up but I’m serving most ales within a few weeks.
I’ve used bentonite with great success on a cream ale. A tablespoon dissolved in a cup of boiled water and added near the end of fermentation will clear it almost overnight (though a week is better)
at what temperature do you ferment this beer at
How many vols of CO2 for this style?
I've never had this style, but it looks fantastic! Sort of like a mix between a bitter and IPA. A question about yeast selection: I've noticed you've used London Ale III for all of your British beers thus far (instead of London ESB for your bitters), but is there ever the feeling that the yeast character, which I know is very "English" in a lot of ways, makes the beers all taste a bit too similar to one another? I know that all the styles are somewhat similar in their origin/execution, but do you feel like there is enough variation between the classic English strains to warrant using different ones, or is there enough character difference in the grist/hops that it isn't an issue? Great content as always!
So far there has been a pretty big difference in taste - even in those bitters where I was only changing one ingredient. I do start experimenting with different yeasts in the upcoming beers.
Martin where did you pick up the containers with the green lids at ? .. i know about the big grain bins you have since the same company makes them for pet food.. but cant seem to find the small ones ..
Found those at the local dollar store.
Just wondering how much water you started with and did you treat the water other than filtering it ? I have the Clawhammer system too. I looking forward to brewing this beer.
I adjust pH for all my beers but that’s about it.
Have you tried any of the Anvil brand buckets yet? Thinking about getting one to go with my Anvil Foundry brew system.
I’ve not. Looks like a nice piece of kit.
I have the smaller Anvil. Very nice fermenter. Not much can go wrong with these! The lid seals, the spigot works, etc.
@@rpguitar Heck yea! I think I'll give it a shot
How do you do the graphics that show things like OG, grain type and amounts etc. I have a brewing channel and would like to do something nice like this instead of plain old captions at the bottom.
I bought some pre-made titles for Final Cut.
God are you guys .... CUTE . The only word to really describe that video haha! Keep going.
What is the effect of introducing the oxygen towards the end of the brew?
Oxygenating beer later on in the fermentation can add off flavours and oxygen is not sanitary like the c02. This is why alot of people dry hop earlier on when fermenration is high so that the oxygen is quickly pushed back out by the c02 from the fermentation. I found it off that he adds his dry hops later on.
11 points increase pre to post boil seems high, I usually get about 5? You must have a big boil off rate? Can you use metric for temps too please, I don't understand Fahrenheit 😀
I can usually get 7 or 8 points for a 60 minute boil but I don't think he ever mentioned how long his boil was.
I hope that is a juice ahahaahh
A Aroma hop for bitternees and a bitter hop for aroma? WTH?
🙃
@@TheHomebrewChallenge ?
Nice video as usual! but orange juice? really? looks like a NEIPA to me... ;) just kidding, Keep going!
🤣
I must say that almost all recipes are the same. Adding 10 gr more of hops? Ok, new style of beer! Adding 4% instead of 3% of a wheat? Another style of a beer =) I don't think that anyone can notice the difference between Blond Ale and British Golden Ale etc..
hops are over rated, I have had beers from people who put in hops at 60 min, 30 min, 15 min, 5 min, and at flame out then dry hop in the fermenter and all you can taste is hops, you might as well be putting cascade hops in a cup and adding water and drinking that, it is unbalanced and putrid, I don't mind commercial beers like Sierra Nevada Pale ale where there is hop flavor but I want to be able to taste the beer as well, a pale ale for me is hops at 60 mins and hops at 15 mins and that is it
