    This video provides an excellent overview of the recipe formulation process as well as the tools needed and how the recipe is put into practice in a commercial brewery. Matt's expansive knowledge, coupled with his articulate communication style makes understanding a complex subject, with lots of interdependencies easy to understand and apply to the home brewery. I have bookmarked this video and will definitely be watching it more than once! Great job putting this together and producing it. Paul

    honestly one of the best videos I've seen in this subject area. One thing I'm struggling with is scaling from homebrew to microbrewery recipe - especially in term of hops; as i've read that hop utlization increases with large batch systems. How do you figure it out when first producing a batch in a new brewery? Do the equipment suppliers give you a best estimate percentage for their brew system? Is it just expected that a new brewery will need to run a few full size test batches to get the recipe right and therefore you need to factor in that wastage into the budget?

    There are probably 100 people in your community who know nearly as much. It’s all pretty basic information, any home brewer who has been at it a few years is likely to know all of this. No disrespect, it’s just that this is extremely basic knowledge for anyone who brews from grain.

    I’m brand new to home brewing. So new I don’t even have a set up yet. My question is this: When he’s talking about a 60 minute addition or a 20 minute addition is he talking about 20(or 60 or whatever) minutes into the process or left in the process?

    Yes, he is referring to the time left in the boil. So a 60 minute addition will have hops boiling for 60 minutes.

    A spec sheet comes with each bag of malt and the sheet should be used before buying malt and before creating recipes because malt is inconsistent. The info on the sheet ties in with topics motioned during the vid. High modified malt is pretty beat to death for making ale due to modification 42 to 46 Kolbach and high protein 12 to 16%. The higher the Kolbach number the malt becomes less rich in enzyme content. The higher the protein, basically, less sugar content. Kolbach, SNR and protein are listed on a spec sheet. A protein rest is performed in a small volume of mash, the entire volume of mash is not rested. The beer becomes insipid when the entire volume of mash is rested at low temperature. Crystal malt can be rancid. When the malt is rancid it does the reverse of what it is supposed to do. The pH of beer is too low for dry hopping to work. Staling occurs immediately when hops are added to beer in a keg and in a secondary vessel. That's why Randall's are made. First wort hops reduces hot break, that's it. A handful of crushed black malt does the same thing. When hot break is reduced less hops are needed. It is best to skim off hot break as it forms and add bittering hops after the hot break ceases to form and skim off the sludge from the second break. The wort will be cleaner, hop character sticks better and less hops are needed. The wider the span between the Alpha, Beta numbers the more imbalanced the hop is. You mentioned that various temperatures are used during mashing to activate enzymes that form different types of sugar, but then you said that single temperature infusion within a temperature range of 148 to 156F makes ale and lager, it seems like the ducks don't line up. Does the method that utilizes several temperatures produce higher quality beer than single temperature infusion beer? If there is a difference in quality which one can be called ale and lager? If we use a Beta rest would we need to purchase a secondary fermentation vessel and add a couple of more weeks onto the brewing process? If we use a Beta rest would we need to add priming sugar and CO2 for carbonation? Why is it that a recipe recommends to purchase a certain base malt but omits the Beta rest? Is the recipe recommending that a person should buy malt that lacks Beta amylase? If we do not use a Beta rest which is the time when conversion occurs is the final product ale and lager? When you mentioned the decoction method where mash is boiled a few times. Does a certain type of hard, heat resistant, complex starch enter into solution when mash is boiled and during dextrinization Alpha releases limit dextrin from the starch? Isn't limit dextrin responsible for body and mouthfeel? Why is the starch noticeable in spent mash from infusion brewing methods? It seems unwise to throw away starch that was paid for and needed. Recipes omit boiling the mash and since the starch is thrown away, is that the reason flaked grains which are supposed to add body and mouthfeel are added to a recipe? It seems to make more sense to use the starch already in malt to make beer with instead of purchasing high fiber ingredients that nothing is done with except for a soaking in hot water.

    This is a good video but often you talk about mouthfeel/body without discussion of how caramel malt and other non-fermentables effect mouthfeel. I have made more than one stout that I have mashed at a relatively low temp because I knew the the body would be provided by the non-fermentables in the mash. Don't get me wrong, this is a good and in-depth discussion but I feel like you could have addressed this even if only tangentially.

    This video has a ton of great information no doubt, but this is the kind of thing that new home brewers will watch and turn what should be a simple and fun process into something complicated and daunting. I work at a homebrew shop and I constantly have people new to the craft coming in overly focused on details that are beyond their level. I need to reel them back in to focusing on the most basic principles and keeping it simple initially. Theres no sense in fiddling with water pH and step mashing if you haven't gotten your sanitation and carbonation practices down. Even more basic, theres no sense in breaking the bank on great equipment before you make a drinkable extract batch with a pot and a plastic bucket. Most of this information only applies to advanced home brewers who have made the journey from kits to clones to really wanting to be the best they can be. If Joe 1st batch thinks that he needs to know all this to homebrew hes likely to get discouraged very early on or at worst never start at all.

    I would tend to agree but for me personally I think as much info as you can get is good. I'm going to be starting my first batch soon and will be keeping it very simple. Going with a kit and premade recipe to make sure I can do the actual process correctly then go from there. That being said, here I am watching really in depth videos about the subject because the more I know the better my beers will be and the faster I can progress as a brewer. Keeping it simple is definitely the best way to go to start out and props to you for helping out the people who come to your supply store! Without my local brewer supply store getting started and having help would be a lot harder.
