@@TyinAlaska Ha! Can't make any promises. This time the recipe was actually posted when I followed the link. I go to these types of channels a lot and the recipe is the most important thing to me. I like when there posted in the description.
I am absolutely hooked on this channel! Started brewing about a year ago in a bid to save money on alcohol and because I had 2 large apple trees (Cider). Martin and others have basically made the "saving money" aspect of brewing a bit of a moot point but I don't really care because I love this hobby - tech, science and beer are just a great combination!
Easily among the best Homebrew channels on TH-cam. You’ve come a long ways from your earliest videos. It’s been a fun ride so far. Loved the nitro. Keep up the awesome work. Cheers!
As far as I remember growing up, extra stout was always served in bottles and at room temp where was draught was always on nitro. Both great drinks, I always find the extra stout to be on the thinner side but that makes sense given the carbonation and higher abv. Gas it how you want its a great beer to have either way. Great channel.
Nice work as always Martin. Beautiful looking beer! It was cool to hear about your family heritage. I had the pleasure of visiting Ireland a few years ago. Wonderful place!
When you get further along and you do a cream ale, maybe you should split your beer in two when kegging, do 1 with CO2 and another with Nitro and do a taste test between them.
I love going through your videos, I wish i could brew as often as you do. This one is my fav so far, the nitro set up is impressive, I want to invest in that. The production on the videos is top class, keep up the good work.
Nice one Martin. Watching your video here in Ireland while I'm tasting my German pilsner🍻. Very interesting channel . Keep it up man. Btw I'm in bunclody on weekly basis
It seems you're using Nukatap with a Stout spout which contains an disk aerator with a few holes. Does it work also for Czech lager to pour "hladinka" with load of dense foam? I'm thinking, if the disk is replaced with a fine mesh screen as in the original LUKR side-pull tap, it may produce that dense foam. Or is turbulence from a partially open ball-valve another necessary ingredient?
Good video... for those at a certain level of brewing. I bottle my home brew and I make it on the stove. But I really want to be able to make this exact kind of beer. So, I have many questions. Do you leave the nitro connected to your keg when you aren't having a drink? Is there any temperature considerations once the fermentation is finished? I don't have a beer fridge. I've heard you need one for kegging.
Hey Martin, great video as always. Have you selected your recipe for the IPA yet? I have a good one with kviek yeast and HBC 342 I could share. You could talk about warm fermentation and/or experimental hops.
Hi Martin can you please advice or make a video on how to serve stout on the nitro tap. Eg how long you carb with co2 and what psi before switching to nitro mix. What pressure you serve at nitro and how long you keep it connected before you serve. What length beer lines you use etc. I have just installed my system and mostly pouring foam.
@@TheHomebrewChallenge martin how long you leave it connected with nitro before you serve it. I have changed my line to about12ft and serving at 25psi but not much luck
Hi Martin, yet another great video. When you take it off the Co2 and hook up the beer gas, do you leave the beer gas on until the keg is drained or just switch it on when your'e serving? If its Co2 only, how do you carbonate it? Thanks again.
Great stuff. Your editing skills are incredible. I’m hoping to launch a brewing channel and your camera angles and style are a huge inspiration. I especially enjoy the bits where you discuss brew tech or tips between shots of the brew day. Cheers.
I bought a Guiness Draught and and Extra Stout. The draught is a bit thin for my taste. The Extra is fuller and preferred. I suspect the creaminess of your Extra deceived the taster to thinking it was less than the Draught.
After watching many videos I have wondered, when you say the beer is “Age 4 weeks”, as in this video, is that after fermentation? So in other words, you’ve aged it for 4 weeks before serving?
Thanks. Not trying to be personal, but as a VO guy I'm interested in accents and dialects I don't know. Back on topic, I'm really enjoying the series. You've provided inspiration for many future brew days. Thank you.
@@TheHomebrewChallenge that's great to hear! From the videos I've watched of you using it and Clawhammer themselves it seems like it's basically the best electric starter or budget all grain kit/setup.
Hi Martin, i’m kegging my Irish stout this weekend and I have a brand new nitro set up with 75/25 beer gas. I’m not sure how to carbonate it though, you mentioned CO2 at 30 psi for 12 hours, and then switched to beer gas, but how long did you leave it on beer gas before you poured your first pint?
That is pure brewing porn watching a stout get poured on Nitro! Thanks for the video Martin. By the way, I successfully use 100% nitrogen to serve beers from my home keggerator setup. I fully carbonate the beer first and then switch to nitrogen and serve through the Kegland nitro tap. Its thirsty working typing this message....I think I need to go pour myself a nitro coffee stout!
Everytime I try to brew a dry Irish stout, it comes out like an Irish Extra stout! Still experimenting with dialing down the roasty coffee/chocolate flavors

Looks great! I'm definitely brewing this one. Love your videos, Martin. Keep them coming
Good luck. And thanks!
love your channel!
Thanks!
I think you should show all of the beers over the light coaster you used several videos back.
Ha yeah that did look cool with the Irish Red.
pls share ur water base profile and salt additions uve used on this one...........
Thanks
With a village backstory like that, you should call the imperial version The Undertaker

Would love to see that! My email is in the video description.
I wish I could get those other bottles in the US. All I've seen are the extra and the traditional dry Stout. Maybe I need new bottle shops 😂
Hi Martin can you please advice or make a video on how to serve stout on the nitro tap. Eg how long you carb with co2 and what psi before switching to nitro mix. What pressure you serve at nitro and how long you keep it connected before you serve. What length beer lines you use etc. I have just installed my system and mostly pouring foam.
I did 30 psi of CO2 for half a day then served at 20psi of beer gas through about 10ft of beer line.
@@TheHomebrewChallenge martin how long you leave it connected with nitro before you serve it. I have changed my line to about12ft and serving at 25psi but not much luck
Hi Martin, yet another great video. When you take it off the Co2 and hook up the beer gas, do you leave the beer gas on until the keg is drained or just switch it on when your'e serving? If its Co2 only, how do you carbonate it? Thanks again.
HI Did you just force carb with co2 and not the co2 and nitro mix ? thanks
Correct.
Do I need to use the diffusion stone with this beer like I do with coffee? Going to use beer gas instead of pure nitro. Thanks Martin
Yeah if you have it that will help.
Gone back to using the brew bucket as your fermenter of choice?
I have a bunch of beers fermenting concurrently so need all the fermenter I can get
Great stuff. Your editing skills are incredible. I’m hoping to launch a brewing channel and your camera angles and style are a huge inspiration. I especially enjoy the bits where you discuss brew tech or tips between shots of the brew day. Cheers.

I bought a Guiness Draught and and Extra Stout. The draught is a bit thin for my taste. The Extra is fuller and preferred. I suspect the creaminess of your Extra deceived the taster to thinking it was less than the Draught.
Agreed I think the nitro pour explains that too.
After watching many videos I have wondered, when you say the beer is “Age 4 weeks”, as in this video, is that after fermentation? So in other words, you’ve aged it for 4 weeks before serving?
Four weeks since brew day
Why did you change your brewing set up
Guinness makes an extra stout too
still cant find your irish red ale on the recipe list
Why do you need a different regular and nozzle? What's different about them?
Regulator is different to fit with the different tanks. And a nitro nozzle has a plate in it to take advantage of the smaller nitrogen bubbles.
If you don't mind telling, where's Lauren from? Sounds like has a bit of a mid-Atlantic dialect that I can't place.
Indeed. Southern England blended with Southern USA.
Thanks. Not trying to be personal, but as a VO guy I'm interested in accents and dialects I don't know.

Have nothing but good experiences so far. Especially pleased how well it worth’s with small batches.

Give it a try straight away. Nitrogen isn’t very soluable so it’s mainly used to push the beer though your nitro tap
@@TheHomebrewChallenge okay thanks, I will try that! What psi did you have your nitro regulator at for serving ? Cheers!
Usually around 30-35. But it depends on the length of your lines and your tap. Generally much higher than CO2 though.
@@TheHomebrewChallenge I read online that shorter lines for nitro work best, so I will try 5 feet. Cheers, happy holidays mate!
What was that pour though?
keep it up brother, ill be watching diligently form an hour 20 min south of you
where lies the difference between the stout, extra stout and imperial stout
Just tried to get the instructions for this on clawhammer but it directed me to the Extra stout instead
Nitrogen is N2. NO2 is Nitrogen Dioxide.
Yeah think I did say NO2 at one point... oops
We talking Wile E. Coyote style nitro? 💥💥💥
Bahahaha...: clink clink clink "warriors... Come out to plAY-ay!"
Blasphemy ! There’s only1 Guinness stout ! The “pint of plain “ is your only man
