I am a Homebrewer [video] Release

[Edcculus]

Awesome video! I think Grodziskie may be on my list of brews this year!

 

[uechikid]

GREAT JOB!!!!!! Thanks for sharing.

 

[Laughing_Gnome_Invisible]

Terrific video! Some good talking points in there too about how the internet is helping beer, especially. Well done Poland!

Unfortunatelly not.

It is special glass for Grodziskie. Grodziskie was called polish champagne.
Here you have export label in English.

About recipe, the hardest thing is that Grodziskie was made of 100% smoked (oak) wheat malt. And in Europe there is no malting company, which produced this kind of malt. So many of us use wheat malt + smoked barley malt, but some of us smoke wheat malt on their own.
The recipe I used is:
smoked barley malt 1,5kg
wheat malt 1kg
aroma hops pellets 50g (it was Lubelski, similar to Saaz)
yeast like to koelsch, e.g. S-33

Mash:
5 litre water temp. 40C - add malts
30min in 37C
add 2l hot (boiling) water
20min in 50C
add 3l hot water and heat
30min in 70C

Boiling:
90min
30g hops at the bginning
20g hops after 20 minutes.

EDIT:And the most important it was bottle conditioned.

I'm making it! Please, what was the final quantity for the recipe you posted?

I have a warm fuzzy feeling about our new Polish connections.

Just saw this, oddly enough while I was in Germany. Awesome work guys!

Time to put my PR hat on and get the word out about your video!

Passed this on to Greg Koch of Stone and he used the IAACB account to retweet it:

RT @IAACB: Polish homebrewers create an awesome "I Am A Homebrewer" vid inspired by I Am A Craft Brewer. http://bit.ly/9jTkiy (via @olllllo) 14 minutes ago from TweetDeck

I think the views went up about 100 or so after that!

Yes, I was glad to hear that too.

I have learned SO much and all of it vicariously thru you all before actually becoming a brewer myself. It's great when most experienced forum members resist the urge to lambast a newbie for asking a dumb question (because that only serves to make us feel like we're not worthy to be part of the members only club). Sometimes we just don't know what to search for to get the answer to our questions and have to ask them.

The Wise Mr. Garrison said:
"There are no stupid questions, only stupid people."

Can't wait to be one of you!

I got another response on the video- this time from Hanoi. It's a news piece done on their brew club-so not in the same vein, but still interesting to watch!

 

[passedpawn]

Cool, james. That dark beer with the froth head looked pretty nice. If I ever end up in Vietnam (yea right), I'm looking those guys up.

 

[chumprock]

This is probably the best tribute to the "I am a Craft Brewer" video so far:

 

[passedpawn]

I LIKE IT! Very funny parody.

 

[jamesnsw]

That parody made me laugh sooo hard.

And I think is a very nice way of saying to all of us- let's try a new genre for future beer videos.

But Sour Patch Kids in beer... I could go for it

 

[mc_eric]

Lol! F***ing corn!!!!

 

[bob1852]

Epic!

My favorites:

"**** corn!!!!!"

"My beer is so uninteresting that it's now interesting"

"****ing corn!!!!!!!!!!"

 

[humann_brewing]

hilarious!

 

[Fantastical]

Great video!

 

[Homercidal]

Hilarious!

 

[IrregularPulse]

That was awesome.Werewolves!

 

[Boerderij_Kabouter]

That is one of the funniest things I have seen in a while. I literally laughed out loud and am still chuckling to myself. Damn that is some funny stuff. I have sex with craft beer.

 

[Hannable1975]

I just found this today. I have spent the better part of 2 HOURS watching the vids and reading each link.
1) To the HBT folks who made the video - excellent. It's good fun.
2) The Polish folks - I dare say your vid was the best - it was educational on top of being an homage.
and 3) The parody a few comments up - that;s top shelf. F***ing corn!

Congrats and cheers folks - good fun!

 

[humann_brewing]

Just remembered this video and had to go back and see it again after all these years. Good stuff

 

[firestem4]

Never knew about this. That's really great!

 

[Gavin C]

Great to see the avatars behind the people who made this happen. Great job to y'all. I know it's years old but still great nonetheless first time I saw it was today. Happy National Homebrewday 2015. Huzzah!

Thanks to all involved.

 

[tferranti]

That was great. Nice job

 

[Laughing_Gnome_Invisible]

I had forgotten all about this video!! I was not a part of it, but I remember it was all a load of fun to watch at the time. Oh happy days!

 

[TheCADJockey]

Sweet! When are we making a new one?
