I Made An All-grain Brewing Video

[Julez]

After 2 month of preparation, videotaping, editing, and tweaking, my brewing video is finally done. The purpose was to give people an introductory overview of all-grain brewing, and show the mechanics of making beer using my basement brewery. It is by no means a complete thesis on the subject (there are great resources for this), but may inspire someone or give them that "A-Ha!" revelation when something finally clicks.

The video, in 2 parts, can be seen on my Youtube channel, and please excuse my accent!

Great work Joe! Have had only a quick look but will check it out more tonight. So much better to see a "real example" than to read it in a book.

By the way everyone - if you pronounce it in the Germanic way, you would pronouce it mash "toohn" similar to the same way we say "book". See http://german.about.com/library/anfang/blanfang_abc.htm

funny site

You're ambiunitist!!!

I suppose I prefer that to being called "bi".

The yanks are slowly moving to metric, I love it when they use units such as gms/gallon such as when adding salts to water.

We have lots of snakes out this way and they are all imperial rather than metric in length. "Four foot brown" has a resonance to it, rather than "a bit over a metre brown."

Thanks very much Joe for working so hard on the project and posting it up on utube.

All you people that have been thinking of ag, watch the video and then do it!

How long are those things on the end of your legs?

No more, I promise...

The word "tun" is Middle English from Old English in origin, so why would you pronounce it like a modern German would? I'll stick to the English thanks.

I've only watched part 1 - but it was excellent!!! :super:

Top work! Very nice setup too (I gotta get a brew stand and pump happening one day)

Keep up the good work

Now back to work before my boss finds out I was on youtube <_<

I not sure why a couple of posters are slagging the video

They say a picture is worth a thousand words ... but a movie is exponentially more

Even though it's in imperial I don't think that the measurements are the most important part - but rather the demonstrated process

Brewers should be appreciative of the effort that Joe has gone to in putting together a pretty top notch demonstration - rather than pointing out differences of opinion / errors

I can now send this link to people who stare at me blankly when I explain the AG process

Great work!

Now all we need to do is get Mercs Own to do something similar to host on AHB

Cheers

Edit: Put in transitive verbs and other grammatical corrections to make this whole thing make sense

Great work Joe,
I am looking to move to AG, and being able to see the whole process makes it a whole lot easier to comprehend.

 

[randyrob]

nice work joe! i don't think i could wait 5 weeks for my first all grain tho :icon_cheers:

Rob.

Bugger. It is too, I stand corrected. As they say, assumption is the mother of all F* ups...

In that case, it is "tun", not "tune" :lol:

I s'pose myself and a few others are guilty of being :icon_offtopic:

The point is it's a good vid, pronunciations and units of measurement aside. The purpose and usefulness of it is what counts and the contribution Joe has made to this all-consuming activity we all share...Cheers to you mate :icon_cheers:

:icon_offtopic: A very good point there re. snakes.
A 10 inch trouser snake sounds a lot more fearsome than a 25 cm. of the species.
Just thought I`d throw that in

stagga.

I'm with Tangent, bloody yanks. You put your balls out on a block for long enough......and your going to feel some pain.
If I was going to post this video link on a web site in another country I would expect a lot worse than what he got here.
Everyone knows he did a great job, so give it to him.

Tune :lol:

I can't see how putting sh*t on someone whose gone to the trouble of furthering the homebrew experience is in any way productive

Nor can I understand why you would expect such reciprocal treatment on any other homebrew forum

 

[chovain]

Imagine if we boycotted books for their use of imperial units... I mean, why did John Palmer bother writing that pile of crap?

 

[troydo]

Just got some "quiet time at work" and watched them both...

TOP WORK!

That video makes me want a march pump so bad!

Thanks joe

Troydo

 

[joecast]

Golf clap.

 

[bonj]

Great video, and you're a natural presenter. I don't care about the units. Anyone with half a brain can convert them easily to whichever units they prefer.

It's always good to see other's methods. Thanks for posting the link

 

[Kingy]

Great video!! Nothing like watching a brew day from the comfort of my own home and yes i gotta get myself a march pump they are awesome.
The units didnt even bother me as i wasnt copying a recipe i was enjoying his brewing procedures.

cheers

p.s The retailers should give a discount on the pumps for the month of march :lol:
