I once readed that in some places where mead is traditional, they have this sticks and ceramic vases that have been used for centuries and passed from father to son and this sticks and vases contain yeast from all the other fermentations so they are basically brewing mead with the very same wild yeast strain as they ancestors, which sounds pretty cool and somewhere in the world I am sure that it can be found with beer too, maybe in a family homestead somewhere in the world, they are doing their farm ales with a 500 years old yeast strain or something like that

Yeast had no value historically, if your culture died you'd ask your neighbor for some. Thus regional areas developed monocultures. The trick is to never boil it. Never freeze it. And at least once a year use it. You don't need a giant log like that, either. I use an old paint stirring stick I sanded raw (that has never been used, obv) and ground some detailing into for the yeast to catch and wrap it in clean flax linen with lots of gaps, like hessian, when I store it. The cloth has shown some yeast build up too over time.

I'd love to see a video with White Labs where they analyse the log yeast and isolate the strains!

came for the log, stayed cuz' of the SLEEP tshirt

I have watched this video several times because I want to brew this same beer with a log I found. As luck happens we were in Marquette, Michigan walking along the beach on Lake Superior and came across a perfect sized piece of driftwood to use in this process. Its been in the garage for a while and I plan to brew this beer in the next couple weeks now that I have Pilsner Malt I am going to use a different hop but will keep the hop additions the same as they did in the video. When you tell people you're going to brew a beer this way they are totally blown away.

Probably the coolest video you guys have put out.

I loved that vicelabd episode and show. Really cool to see a spotlight on home brewers. And the second I seen the “log beer” thumbnail I knew exactly what I was about to see and I wasn’t let down. Thanks guys! Hope the beers are still coming out well with that yeast strain.

Amazing vid guys, you're definitely pushing the bar way high up there, love your experiments which bring the history or beer back alive.

Excellent video. I saw that episode of Beerland and thought it was a brilliant and original idea (well original in a modern homebrewing sense). Great to see things developing for him.

This is like the magic spoon or stick that pre-germ theory brewers would use; it would become inoculated with the yeast and bacteria from previous batches and would carry over as a starter for new batches. this would not only get things started as soon as possible, it would mean that a particular brewery would always have a similar tasting beer from batch to batch

Did you write everything down in your "logbook"?

Do all logs have yeast growing in/on them or how do you pick an appropriate one?

There are many like it....but this is my log! Hilarious!

The first time the log was used, did he add yeast or it's only wild yeast on the log?

Thank goodness it’s that kind of a log...

Question: What if you dipped the ph meter into the mash instead of pulling out a sample? Would a reading straight from the mash be as accurate? It’s going to get boiled after so I’m not sure if sanitation is an issue at that point - AND you would save soon to be fully converted wort, right?

I don't see any issues with that-- you might want to check with the manufacturer of your PH meter to make sure the high temp won't damage the probe.

Interesting video. Very cool. As an aside, I was very surprised to see you boiling with the lid on. Everything I've read cautions against doing that, claiming that DMS would be a big issue.... Especially while using pilsner malt. Some people even advocate boiling pilsner malt for 90mins instead of 60 to avoid that. Ive never noticed DMS, and have boiled pilsner for 60mins regularly, but still have not considered keeping the lid on.... Did you have any DMS issue at all?

Hi guys! I just wonder, as I’m not so much into beer. Could that “mash” be distilled to become a 40% alcohol? What I’m looking for is to find a way to ferment the mash using natural yeast from the nature, as the yeast bought from a shop is a strain that ferment quickly but taste shit. And as we all know, the yeast make the taste. Cheers

To increase ABV, you need stronger yeast, that won't "drown in its own shit" =, meaning it can survive higher ABV and you need more sugar to feed said yeast.

Next time you should dip your beards in the wort to inoculate with whatever you have in those things XD
