Brewing the New Grainfather All Grain Ingredient Kits
In this week’s Grain to Glass homebrewing video, we take a look at the new Grainfather All Grain Brewing Ingredient Kits by brewing two full batches from start to finish.
While we happened to brew these beers on the Grainfather G30 and G40 systems, these ingredient kits are designed for all-grain brewers using any suitable brewing setup, whether that’s a single-vessel system, a traditional mash tun and kettle setup, or another all-in-one brewery.
At The Malt Miller, all-grain brewing is still our favourite way to make brilliant beer at home, so we were keen to see how these new kits performed across two very different beer styles.
What This Video Covers
Rob brews Town Crier, a classic Best Bitter featuring a rich copper colour, balanced malt character, and traditional British hop flavour from Goldings and Fuggles.
Meanwhile, Rakey takes on Bay Break West Coast IPA, loaded with Centennial and Simcoe hops for bright citrus, pine, and proper modern West Coast IPA character.
In the full Grain to Glass video, we cover:
- What’s included in the Grainfather ingredient kits
- Preparing for an all-grain brew day
- Brewing the recipes from start to finish
- Mash, boil, and hop additions
- Fermentation and yeast handling
- Tasting the finished beers
- Brew day techniques and habits we use when brewing at home
Designed for All-Grain Brewing at Home
These kits are aimed at homebrewers who want a straightforward all-grain brewing experience with professionally designed recipes and quality ingredients.
Whether you brew on a Grainfather, Brewtools, BrewZilla, Guten, or a traditional three-vessel setup, the recipes can easily be adapted to suit your own brewery and process.
Both beers in this video show just how different all-grain brewing can be, from traditional British styles through to modern hop-forward IPAs.
