How to make Beer - Porter, that tastes like Guinness. Boil in Bag Raw Ale Method I kid you not. We try out a new heater / temp system in this video. I have mixed feelings on it to be honest. The Porter is great, I've made it before, and the mash bill is pretty inexpensive too.
I don't boil my beer anymore, we use the Raw Ale method and it works great!
This porter tastes surprisingly like Guinness to me, and it's a new staple around here. So, let me teach you how to make this beer, no specialty items needed!

A little honey, some dehydrated fruit pellets.... you know, meadmaking. This is the finale in the Craisin Meadmaking series.

Racking Mead - Mulberry Mead Racking - Morat Racking. Part Two of the Morat, or Mulberry Mead is Racking to Secondary, using an Autosiphon. Racking is the act of moving the brew from one vessel to another, usually using a siphon. Racking mead is done to help it clear, remove the lees, and remove any particles that we don't want in the final Mead, among other reasons to Rack Mead.

It's been about two years, and our Cyser has been aging all that time. It's the Super Simple Cyser made in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k3HrNV9SHow and yes, I mean the actual cyser made in that video, not just the recipe. It's in one of our fancy reused bottles and hasn't been touched. So, how does two year old Super Simple Cyser taste?
