Hey Bearded , which flavorings should I get , the Extracts or the ones that just say Flavor Fountain, or does it matter ? Also the ones I have from Olive Nation doesn't have the TTB Label on them , does that make any difference, or should I get the ones with the TTB Label on them ? Thanks PS: I know that these may be some stupid questions but I'm just starting to get into giving home brewing a try and this is all new to me , also would you do a video on making a hard lemonade like Mike's Hard Lemonade, Thanks .

@@stevedarnall8556 These are good questions. The TTB labeling just means the extracts are colorless, but you can use any of the extracts for this project.

I'm not a big fan of artificial fruit flavours, because they are too strong BUT if you flavoured it more at a baking aroma level, rather than a full-on sweet syrup level... Banana, Almond and a tiny bit of Coffee or Cocoa to give a dark choc-chip taste. It could be awesome.

I'm in the middle of a keezer build and wanted an option for seltzer and soda, ya know for the fam. So I'm carbing water then adding stuff after. I took a beat out of George's book and added some glycerin to my water profile and I have to say it's next level for everything, seltzer, soda, mixers, vodka - soda - syrup. The flavorings I've been using are all different sources and I mix em because real flavor is complex and most extracts are one or two note. I even source from vape suppliers. So far I only have the peach dialed in. 2 ml per 12 oz brewmaster peach (from morebeer) + 4 drops Lorann peach (from a vape shop). Spot on Georgia right off the tree peach flavor. Now I'm working on pear the two Lorann flavors I have are touching but not hitting. Lemon and tangerine are another challenge. It's almost as much fun as brewing beer, almost. Trial and error and a butt ton of notes but in the end I'll have things down and can move onto automated post mix systems and all my own flavors.

I've tried a few version also. A little citric acid helps be closer for sure to commercial. I did comparison of Table Sugar, Inverted Table Sugar and Dextros. Dextros was the most neutral and clean, second was the Inverted table sugar (close to dextrose but still something there) then lastly the table sugar had a flavor that seamed to decrease over time. I find typically I hit .990 to .995 with sugar typically. You can also carbon filter it to make it even clearer and less flavor before adding the flavors. I typically make a clear seltzer and then add flavouring in drops in the glass.

OK, so some flavouring ideas for all of you. When I make mine, I often flavour them with real fruit. You can make a simple syrup flavoured with fresh or frozen fruit(creates a sweet drink, harder to balance flavour vs sweetness), or simmer pure fruit juice reducing it(far more control between flavour and sweetness - just reduce to desired balance from light to full syrup). Now you have a flavouring agent all of your own, which also adds.a nice light coloring to the final product! Keep in mind that more sugar = more alcohol and not neccesarily more sweetness. My comments about balance assume you've halted fermentation ability via a quick pasteurization, or other means. BUT, you can also use these as a flavouring/priming sugar, leaving a dry flavoured product(which is what I actually do in most cases).

Thanks for the clear and concise video, I'll make sure to use your links :D I have some questions -- can you tell me the ideal temperature range for the primary fermentation? And the range for the bottling/secondary fermentation? I'm in Australia so I've got a completely different climate to yours. I have a heating/cooling set up to get to the right range though. Thanks again!

23-24C should be fine. Check your yeast packet for the ideal temperature range. They'll have it listed on the back.

Came out freakin' clear.👍 How long to carb them? Want to make a 5gal batch soon and will keg it w/o extract. Flavor to taste in glass. Try any other yeasts?

About 5-6 days if you can keep the room temp around 70F. I think flavoring each glass is a cool idea. Haven't tried any other yeasts, but anything that brews clean will work. Brew4Life channel did a kegged seltzer video with a kveik yeast that came out super clear. I'd check that out.

Why would some bottles be super sulphery and others fine? I bottled in regular 12oz bottles... Opened a black cherry and it's undrinkable. Opened a mango and it was great. Thought I followed along right along with the vid. Those are the only 2 I've tried so far.

I'd been wondering about hard seltzer, now I know! Curious, you didn't use a pop bottle to check for carbonation level this time, thought with the glass bottles it would be safer??? Anyway, looks like things turned out awesome as usual, and thanks for sharing. Merry Christmas brother. Rev. D.

Don't need the pop bottle if you're not trying to manage sweetness and carbonation. Since this is a dry seltzer you just add enough sugar to carb it like a beer. Merry Christmas Preacher:-)

If you are bottle carbonating a dry brew, you use a set standard of priming sugar in each and every carbonated brew. Consistent, repeatable amounts are safe; Ex. 1 oz white sugar per gallon of brew. Bottle carbonating a sweet brew (ie-ginger beer) is where you should use a plastic bottle, because you would be pasteurizing and need to know when to stop it.

I've tried this recipe with RO water and ran into an issue with low PH and having to adjust it back to 4.5~5 PH range so that the yeast can do its job.

That's great. I will have to give that a shot. Do you think correcting the PH down to 5 with citric acid would carry over enough tang or would you go lower? Merry Christmas.

It might. I'm also considering adding a tsp of lemon juice right at bottling time to see how that goes. Merry Christmas:-)

Good video. I am wondering about the taste / smell of the brew before flavoring - because under the "who can you trust these days" protocol 1) cherry flavor "Water Soluble Flavoring made from Propylene Glycol, Water & Natural Flavors" 2) "Industrially, propylene glycol is mainly produced from propylene oxide (for food-grade use)." 3) "Propylene oxide is an acutely toxic and carcinogenic organic compound" Quotes - 1 from OliveNation, 2 & 3 from wickedpedia

Yes:-) You can use Bentonite. It's clay powder that cider makers use to clear cloudy cider. Here's a link amzn.to/3krAwuc
