  • If you’re an extract brewer and want to get the advantages of pressure fermentation, this video will show you how simply and sanitarily.
    What are the advantages?
    How about faster fermentation times, carbonating in the fermenter and turning your fermenter into a keg that you can drink straight out of or hook up to a kegerator tap system.
    With just a little bit of equipment you’ll be smashing out beers with a higher level of fermentation control.
    It’s easy. Watch this and see how to mix up the extract kit and add it to our Fermenter King Junior 20L Pressure Fermenter/Keg.
    Junior fermenters are super affordable, awesome, space-saving pressure fermenters that are perfect for Fresh Wort Kits, Extract Kits or any brewery side project.
    With their strong tanks, floating dip tubes and their build in handles, Junior pressure fermenters offer brewers flexibility in their application for serving or fermenting.

    Get them here:

    Or try the 30L Chubby Fermenter. Same equipment as Junior but with a, bigger 30L tank

    Maybe try 35L or 60L and Go bigger, get more control, built in dry hopping port, thermowell and centralised floating dip tube, yeast collection.

    Also available in 35L or 60L One of the most popular varieties out there. Super strong and easy to use. The Snub Nose was and is the first closed bottom P.E.T. pressure fermenter on the market:

    great video mate! i already have done one extract kit in a junior & it turned out ok but never thought of mixing in a bucket first! and mate you are so funny! sanitise your life :)

      Ken, you probably have more experience than a lot of homebrewers when it comes to using P.E.T. pressure fermenters! We just wanted to stress the point of not mixing hot in the fermenter itself. Truth be told, it was actually kind of fun just making an extract beer again but used every bit of restraint to just make the kit itself and not throw more hops in!

    Great stuff. I'm sure it will be covered in subsequent videos, but in terms of dispensing directly from the FV, do we need to worry about trub and hop matter (if dry hopping)? And is the life of the beer limited if the beer stays on the trub for, say, 3 or 4 weeks?

      Hi Andrew. We're going to make another video on the cellaring and tasting after hooking up directly to a tap system. It's easy. Short answer is no, there isn't any issue if you drink the beer over the next few weeks. You can always transfer to a keg easily without oxygen if you want to take your time to age the beer and remove it from the yeast cake. Since we shot this video last week, the beer is finished, clear and ready. We actually tried it today and
      As for dry hopping, when you cold crash, they should drop to the bottom with the yeast. The floating dip tube will draw the beer off the top so well above the sediment layer. If you think there might be particulate matter in your dip tube, you can always push CO2 down the liquid post to clear it. To dry hop, simply depressureise, remove the lid and chuck them in, then repressurise. There's heaps of methods that work.

    Great video mate. I'm a total novice and only ever used extract kits. I'm definitely getting a FK-J. Can you still dry hop in one of these? Cheers 🤙🍻

    • @Keg-King
      @Keg-King  ปีที่แล้ว

      yes absolutely! just depressurize the Junior and remove the top then dump the dry hop and close quickly.

    I'm wanting to get into home brew, just extract kits really, for now.
    My Mrs bought me a king king junior, 20l capiticy. I know you've brewed short in your video, but how feasible is this for brewing all kits short?

    • @Keg-King
      @Keg-King  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Easy. It will work for just about any style. As the brewer you can always find clever ways to work around your equipment limitations. Brew strong or water back, it's up to you.

    Thats one thing I never thought about as a rookie brewer. Fermenting under pressure already carbonates your beer right out of the fermentor?!!!
    What pressure do you ferment at?

    • @Keg-King
      @Keg-King  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      We do ales at around 10psi and lagers at 1 bar or 15psi. You can dial up the pressure a bit before you finish when you bump up the heat for the D-rest. Then cold crash to get the gas to absorb into the beer. We hook up a gas cylinder and keep 10psi as we drop temp to 2C. Leave it for a day and it's right around 2.5 to 2.6 volumes. Perfect for pale ale. You can always adust for achieving other carbonation levels in other beer styles.
      We just tasted this beer (it's Friday here in Oz)
      and the next video on cellaring and tasting is being made. It's funny because for an extract beer, for any beer, it's good without having invested too much time or money in bringing it to existence. Cheers!

    Do these plastic, clear fermenters discolour over time? I've been brewing for several years now using a somewhat white/opaque fermenter. Certainly not clear. After about 3 years, I notice there is a distinct stain on the inside from many worts.

    • @Keg-King
      @Keg-King  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      No, not really. They remain clear. The diptubes will certainly discolour a bit over time because they're silicone, but the PET tank remains transparent.

    Do you still let us go through the grain room and select our grains like before covid?

    • @Keg-King

      Absolutely! We have a lot of traffic, feel free to come in, we do have the best self serve grains selection in country after all.

    To be honest I boycotted keg king because you demanded customers be vaccinated well before governments mandates

      We have followed government mandates to the tee. But it's all in the past now, come on in and have a look in the shop, I'm sure you will find something you like.
