I brewed 10 gallons of BEER so I could compare these 2 yeasts!!!
I brewed up 10 gallons of a Mexican Lager with corn and split it into 2 fermenters. I fermented 1 with Diamond Lager yeast from Lallemand and the other with Nova Lager and served it to some friends and family. I'll be honest, I couldn't tell the difference, they were both good! You should totally try it out for yourself....cheers!!!

Diamond lager is my go to, consistently awesome, clean and crisp
Papa Gino’s the best!!!
Great video! It is nice to know that you can make a solid lager with NovaLager at 65F, vs Diamond at 55F.
Always a good day when a new Elementery Brewing video drops! Cool experiment and great results. I need to make more Mexican lagers.

Thanks for watching!!! I’ve got more coming up it just takes me a while 🤣 cheers 🍻
Super interesting comparison! Love the blind taste testing
What a timely video. I’ve been brewing with Diamond Lager a good bit lately and I just branched out with Nova Lager on my last brew day to see how it does in a Porter.

Nice!!! I’ll need to try it in an ale next!!! Cheers 🍻
I brewed all my beer last year using Nova lager very impressive. I found 16c to 18c best cleanest taste. Very fruity at 12c.
Killer vid braj!

As always, great video my friend. Fun experiment. Been on a Mexican lager kick as of late and have been thinking about brewing my own. Might have to take some inspiration from your version when I make my own. Cheers bud!

Another banger video as usual bro! Very interesting results too. I’ve been wanting to brew a Mexican Lager for a while now and haven’t taken the plunge, but getting some inspiration here. Well done sir, cheers 🍻

Very well done! I am trying to remember if I've ever used Nova Lager, but I can tell you that Diamond Lager has been a champ and always comes out really nice and smooth, especially for a Mexican Lager.

Haven't done any comparison but did do a few nova lagers at around 75F under pressure and they came out very good. Cheers.

I would like to try novalager sode by side with the same recipe and different fermentation temps as ive only done 18c so far and it has produced what i would consider to be a clean ale, not a lager. W3470 for me produces a more lager-like beer when fermenting at 18c which is the warmest ive gone without pressure for a lager yeast
I have used them both and I also prefer the nova because of the speed and temperature capabilities. Mash on!

Lol... stunning panel
Another great video! Old school Cleveland Indians (Guardians) hat?! ❤
I just picked up 2 packs of the Novalager, what was the fermentation time on it? Looking forward to making a Cold Ipa with it.

Good stuff My experience with Nova. The big thing is temperature range. Probably Good people can't tell the difference. 🍻

I have been searching (to no avail) to determine if NovaLager continues to ferment in the lager stage. It is my belief that normal lager yeasts continue to be "active" in the cellar. I want to cold crash NovaLager, but I am afraid of sending it to the cellar while it might still be active. The yeast might die at lager temperatures...
How was the Genie?
Great video, loved the tasting banter. We need to get you a new bucket :p jk Keep crushing it, always enjoy your stuff! Cheers 🍻

Are you using a tri-clamp to hold your pump onto the leg of your stainless steel table? Tell me more about this setup because I am interested in getting this for my setup!

Yes!! It’s a pump mount made by exchillerator. You can get it from there website, cheers 🍻
Was that Mr. White with you on the tasting?
