At this point I’m just going to work through requests and show you some stuff that I’m currently working on in my homebrewing. As always, if you ever have a request, post it in a comment… [Read more…]

After nearly nearly two months off, I’m sure many of you have forgotten about my little blog. Well, I’m back! First of all, maybe I should have said this before I departed, but the reason I stopped writing was because I got married on July 14th, 2012. My wife, Sarah is the love of my… [Read more…]

I’ve covered a lot of the basics and the more intermediate/advanced topic of all-grain homebrewing. I definitely still have some smaller lessons to do (bottling, kegging, filtering, etc) – but I want to teach what people are interested in learning about.

Sorry for the delays, I’m working on big updates with lessons on hops, yeast, and an all-grain tutorial video as well.

I’m just finishing up my lecture for this. I have some out of town guests staying in my house so finding a quite space and the time to narrate has been problematic, especially considering it will be my first time using the software. I hope to get quite a bit more in-depth with the lecture,… [Read more…]

Shot this video 20 hours after pitching my yeast. I love US-05 American Ale yeast because it ferments so quick. I’d actually guess that by today, three days after pitching, my beer has reached its terminal gravity. That said, we want to leave it alone for at least 7 days, and usually 14 is… [Read more…]

I’m still getting the hang of making videos. Trying to actually make beer while talking about what I’m doing is harder that you’d think. Anyway, because I’m not super pleased with everything in the video (I feel I may have left some stuff out), I’m going to include a text guide as well: 1. The… [Read more…]
