- Here is your step-by-step guide to dumping the cone of a unitank. No matter the size of your unitank, this process essentially stays the same across professional and home-brewing vessels.
From understanding how to use a diaphragm valve, the importance of cleaning in brewing, and the process of separating hops from your beer, this video is the first full process tutorial on CZcams!

Love these videos! Can you show things like how you sanitize your hoses, like when sending wort from the BOil kettle to the FV etc
Absolutely loving the youtube videos. I’m not a pro brewer but I do like to glean a thing or two (fastidious sanitation) from them. You probably aren’t taking requests but I’d love to see a video where you taste a beer a few times during the ferment (days 4, 7, 10, 14 etc. if you even go that far). No one really talks about identifying when a beer is ready, especially when yeast is still in suspension. Should cold crash happen as soon as terminal is reached? Post vdk test?
This is my new favorite channel
This is our favourite new comment! thank you
Honestly the best vids ever. Unfortunately the team has not diminished my want for opening my own brewery
thank you. good luck if you decide to take the plunge!
I’d like to see how you dry hop in those tanks without introducing oxygen.
Awesome
Audio works for me. Top video. Keep em coming. Racking arm wasn’t something I dump but now it’s in my process ❤
Thank you! We're happy to see you're learning and we are glad to help.
Gotta work on that clamp fu mate. Breaks my heart seeing you put one on and not doing a little flip.
Wicked video man, would love to see another step by step brew day including ingredients 🍻
Coming soon!
Thanks for a very informative vid. Keep them coming
Thanks, will do!
Are you talking about Jasper towards the end of this video? Used to love his content, think he had a brewery in Montana. Cheers!
Yes! Jaspers voice filled our house most nights in the early stages of our plan for a brewery.
Cheers guys for the awesome content!!
Certainly no where near a 1200L uni yet but can still use the info for sure!
Thanks for watching!
Awesome video as always, I'd love to see your yeast setup
Plenty more to come!
Another very illustrative video. Thanks. Couple of questions: Why do you sanitize those exit points? aren't you just dumping that excess hope?, are you doing it so "bacteria" does not travel back up into the tank? --- Also, you are doing this dump to help cleaning the beer? what happens if you don't do it? wouldn't it just still fall down and get your beer clear above? or is the amount too much that its level is above that racking arm? thanks for any feedback!!
Level but also beer sitting on hops for longer than ideal extraction time (12-36 hours for depending on dryhop methods ) leads to a shift in what they’re contributing. We want the good oils mostly tropical/citrus/sweet fruit which typically a freed from the material on a relatively short period especially if you rouse or recirculate. Longer time leads to grassy and some unpleasant compounds being extracted and hops as he mentioned are a royal PITA when packaging and you want it clean as possible not counting having hops in package leads to more unpleasantness as noted. Quick is key so dumping is key.
Hi David
Thanks for your question.
We sanitize all exit point when pulling anything from the tank to kill any bacteria. It is essential to maintain a high level clean product.
If you don’t dump the cone, the yeast start to stress which can create
off flavours in the beer. Also you need to remove the hops from the finished beer, if they stay on too long the product will start to get astringent from the hops &
Undesirable flavours like garlic and onion can be perceived.
If you use a flat bottom fermenter at home, after the beer has finished fermentation and had a diacetyl rest you should cold crash and then send it to the keg as soon as possible to avoid sitting on the yeast and dry hop.
Cheers! Keep brewing 🙌
Check out yeast autolysis for more in depth info.
Can you explain why you use the acetyl acid and the isopropyl alcohol and why you use each for each of those steps. As a homebrewer, I generally just use StarSan for sanitizing and and PBW for cleaning. Thanks!
Hi
We use peracetic- acid which is acetic acid(vinegar) and hydrogen peroxide.
It sanitises and kills bacteria. We use the isopropyl on afterwards as a back up. We allow it to evaporate off to kill off any bacteria or wild yeast. What we use is for the commercial setting.
Cheers - keep brewing!
Hey mate, are you just running co2 through regular air compressor hose?
Hi, the hose is a food grade hose. Ours was from a company called Now Chem. A chemical supply company. It wasn't cheap either. Cheers
please use mono audio, else very nice ;)
Thanks for the tip. We’ve fixed it for the next recording. Fingers crossed it’s going to work
There appears to be no audio, is that on purpose
If you have opened the video on your phone it may be on mute 😁
I have no audio either, I hear the music in the intro :(
@@lewishanger8932 We have noticed that some headphones are only picking up one side of audio. It's possible if your only wearing one earphone you may need to switch sides. We are looking into fixing this problem
It's because the voice audio was only set to the left channel. When editting the video you need to duplicate the left channel over to the right.
@@AndrewLynch9 Ah thanks Andy. Seems my speakers are only working on the left channel.😆
