Sometimes, going old school is the best choice. This English IPA is a style you don’t see that often but in this video we find out what makes it unique and why putting in on cask at home is the best way to unlock some incredible flavors!

What about beer freshness when you rack to a cask? Is there a way to serve on a beer engine from a bagged keg (like a PolyKeg)?
When I see your Clawhammer system, one of the things that really stands out to me is the spraynozzle attached to the lid.
The systems we can buy in the Netherlands tend to have a nozzle with laminar flow. I’ve been talking to other Dutch home brewers and they tend to advise me not to use a spray nozzle, since they think it will cause hot side oxidation.
What are your thoughts about the oxidation risk? Why does your system / all clawhamer systems use a spray nozzle?
If you are concerned about hot side aeration, this system may not be the right choice. That being said, myself and a rapidly growing number of homebrewers have yet to find any evidence of it having a perceptible impact on homebrew scale batches. Brulosophy have done a number of tests on this that also seem to indicate that while it is a chemical process that does indeed happen, its effects are not perceptible until you scale the process up enough to professional brewing levels.
@@TheApartmentBrewer Thank you for the reply! 🙂 I’ll take it into consideration. A spray nozzle will probably add some convenience to my system, because I can leave out the top filter plate which is now kind of necessary to spread the wort over the malt bed, which means I can also more easily stir every now and again.
I’m not completely sold on either the spray nozzle or the laminar flow nozzle yet.
At the moment I use a silicone hose with holes cut in it to spread the wort evenly. It kind of works, but the downside is you can’t stir properly or the hose will submerge into the malt bed.
All upsides and downsides of several methods to consider.
Thank you for helping me out! 🙂
Would love to make this, but would Red X be a substitute for the Admiral Kilnsmith?
Maybe, it is probably way more potent. Maybe a blend of Vienna and crystal 40 would work
Hi Steve well I am going to brew this IPA recipe in a couple of days. I will use Windsor, but do I need to pitch 2 x pkts of said yeast? Oh, and by the way the Golden Ale I brewed, again from your recipe is now conditioning but straight after fermenting it tasted wonderful. How long would you condition this Golden Ale (the answer is most probably in your video and if so, I apologize for wasting your time) Thanks Pal
I think as long as your OG is below 1.060 and you’re fermenting relatively cool, its fine to pitch a single pack of windsor. The golden ale is best fresh, so it won’t require much conditioning time.
Just getting back around, I’m going to be making some British/Irish styles this winter and am also looking for a beer engine set up.
The few IPAs on cask I had overseas were a little hazy so the haze isn’t too out of character
