We do a taste comparison of a simple Pale Ale between Kveik yeast and standard American Ale yeast US-05.
John brewed a very simple beer for a simple yet interesting hopped pale ale. He fermented each beer with the two different yeasts at relatively the same temperature. That is to say John didn't go to any extreme lengths to ferment the Kveik hot nor did he ferment the US-05 beer exceptionally cool.
We compare the flavor and aroma profile of these beers and discuss new variables and new way to play with and learn about Kveik!
Tell us about your Kveik yeasts experiences in the comments section!
CHEERS!

I’ve brewed a couple of times with the Lallemand Voss strain, it is amazing. Started to ferment vigorously within 4 hours (in Australia, with temp control @30). Have done this experiment with it and US05 before and both were great. Biggest difference was the voss had dropped clear and was drinkable in 5 days, us05 was the same but it took 2.5 weeks to clear out. Great work guys, keep it up

Back with US05! I just made an IPA with it and it turned out actually amazingly. I was pretty surprised. Love these videos gents. Thanks for putting in the effort during lockdown. There’s literally nobody else making these kind of brewing “experiment” videos. Cheers

Hey man! Thanks for watching. We're doing our best during these covid days to keep things coming! Its getting better. Stay safe and Brew On! -Mike

@paulguyett 2 года назад

I've switched to Kveik Voss from US-05 and have been pitching at about 40C. It ferments out in under 2 days and has no off flavours at all. Adding a healthy dry hopping for 2 days means I'm drinking the beer 6-7 days after brewing.

@BrewDudes 2 года назад

Awesome - thank you for your input! - John

@ThomasLeskin 4 года назад

I’ve never used the strain you guys used but I have used a few different kveik strains. Not all Kveik are the same. If I was gonna compare a beer against US-05 and wanted it to be similar, I’d use Bootleg Biology Oslo since in my opinion it’s most similar. It’s kinda like a really fast and quick fermenting US-05, otherwise for certain stains it’s like comparing US-05 to Conan. With my Kveik beers, I’ve usually just chilled to about 90-95, pitched and let it free fall to whatever temperature it ferments at. There’s lots of cool strains though. Glad you guys are trying it out. Recently been trying the Lallemand Voss Kveik as well which they just started selling in the US

I've got a Pilsner going right now with Oslo

@JohnnyReverse 4 года назад

oslo is far cleaner than us-05 it is almost as clean as pilsner yeast

@Jonobos 4 года назад

Ferment the kviek hot if you want more fruity esters. If you ferment cool (75 is cool for kviek) it ferments pretty clean. 90 degrees, just go for it. Also, a teaspoon or 2 is plenty for 5 gallons. I brewed 60 gallons of cream ale with 2 packs of omega voss. 75 degrees fermented cleanly with a massive underpitch. It is very versatile.

@BrewDudes 4 года назад

Good ideas. This was our first pass. Hoepfully more to come. Cheers! -Mike

@tman9338 4 года назад

Jonobos So can 1 dry pack (11g) be used for a 10gal hazy (8% ABV) ??? Also do u know if you can wash or top crop from dry Kviek yeast??

@wilhelmdekock2637 4 года назад

I've been doing split batch experiments with Kveik and US-05. So far the closest kveik strain i've come across to US-05 is Oslo. Bottling a second such comparison this weekend but was really surprised how close they were on an American Wheat Ale. Main advantage with the Kveik is that new brewers could get away without temp control. If you keg and possibly also filter, you can turn a beer around in under a week with Kveik.

@BrewDudes 4 года назад

I'm doing a 1.074 OG Cream Ale with Omega Hot Head Kveik yeasties and they are beasties! I pitched at 74 degrees yesterday and today it's blowing out of my carboys through my blow off tubes. I think I will be able to keg in 3 days. This stuff ROCKS!! Perfect timing for this vid! Thanks Dudes!

Im currently cold crashing an IPA I made last weekend with Imperial's A44 Kveiking yeast. I kept a fermwrap around the fermenter and hooked it up to a temp controller to keep it at 97F. The yeast ate the beer down to 1.008 in less than 48 hours! Really hoping to taste tropical fruity esters that will compliment the loads of hops Ive added during the boil and that I'll also put in the keg.

@johndemmer3496 Год назад

I just did a low IBU split batch pilsner centennial smash. One half fermented with dry Lutra at 77degrees and the other, US05 at 67degrees. At nine days from pitch the US05 is clean and citrusy but the Lutra has an unpleasant over-ripe fruit and dirt taste and smell, without lemon on the nose like the US05 batch has. My previous brew with Lutra had the same taste/smell. I wanted to like Lutra but won't be using it again.

@JesterThinking 4 года назад

It's interesting that y'all detected some phenol character; the kveik strains I'd read about are all phenol negative, but, sure enough, White Labs mentions phenols in their white paper. Also, the thinner body on the kveik version might be because of the lower pH kveik tends to produce. I love seeing these sorts of comparisons, thanks!

@BrewDudes 4 года назад

Thanks!

@jumpjasper5276 4 года назад

I did the same test and I did end up with dryer notes and citrus Fruity kind of flavor on premium Kaviek yeast .I was able to do at 68°. Fermentation 4 days.

@ajoyce 4 года назад

I have tried these old farmhouse beers and to be honest they are just ok. Keep in mind I do use kveik yeast often and enjoy it in the right application but some of these kveik farmhouse beers are historic for a reason. That being said I think there is a great application to use these strains for modern styles. I have had lower pH beers from most kveik strains as well.

@BrewDudes 4 года назад

Love this comment. I've been thinking this too. Its not like Kveik was invented yesterday either right? Cheers! -Mike

@curtpick628 3 года назад

Interesting how much cleaner the 05 looked compared to the Kviek. I've heard several people say exactly what you alluded to on the body and unconventional phenol on the Kviek. Great comparison.

I have watched this video 2-3 times in the last year. In that time I brewed the same beer using these yeasts and I also noticed the kveik yeast was more tart, like white grape sourness, in the beer. Same results as y’all! I think it’ll do better as a pressure fermented yeast or as a NEIPA yeast when you want those esters

@tylerb6081 4 года назад

Thanks for the video. Like you guys, I'm not completely gaga over Kveik. I do like the Voss strain but given the choice I'd rather have a clean American strain like Chico/1056 or M44 for my hoppy Pales. I also get a wild Kveik note (hard to describe in words), almost phenolic but not quite. I've fermented at 33 and 28 C both with good success. I've also had the same experience with very hazy beers with hop heavy styles. One upside as well for Voss Kveik is that is sticks like glue to bottles, so you get a full pour without sediment.

@BrewDudes 4 года назад

Great thoughts, thanks. We are still experimenting. We are mostly curious about how well Kveik does all these crazy things its reported to do. So we will keep experimenting. Cheers! -Mike

@CanadianBrewingChannel 4 года назад

Good old US 05. My favorite strain for building and testing new recipes. I have moved away from Kveik because I found it would dullen the taste of the beer. Reminds me of the flavors you wold get if you used really hard water.Cheers!

@BrewDudes 4 года назад

Thats an intersting take. We will have more testing to see ourselves if we like it. -Mike

@wernervos935 3 года назад

It is an interesting comment. For me, US05 is just too slow. Don't have the patience for it. I believe that for hoppy American style beer it is a great strain. My go-to strain is Mangrove Jack M31...a Belgian style yeast with a very dry finish. Having said that I just brewed my first Tripel with Voss....I am impressed. Very clean profile even with a finishing alcohol of 12.4%. Temperature between 22 an 26 deg Celsius.

@CanadianBrewingChannel 3 года назад

@@wernervos935 Interesting! I will have to try Mangrove Jack M21. Cheers

4 года назад

Those are actually only two yeasty besties that I use. US05 makes me a cleaner drinkable pale ale, kveik makes good juicy ipa. I use kveik in pressure fermenter, with heat belt and us05 in a stainless bucket inside fermentation fridge.

@jonthebeau4653 4 года назад

I have used Framgarden, Voss and Hornindal in hoppy beers and I did not love any of them. It’s been mid 80s to mid 90s here in NW Ohio for several weeks now so maybe if I lacked temp control I would think differently but I have a chest freezer fermentation chamber and I prefer other yeast.

@BrewDudes 3 года назад

@troys1101 4 года назад

One thing you have to factor in with kveik (as you tasted) is that it will produce a more acidic beer compared to most other strains. If you factor in the extra drop and adjust accordingly then you can remove the tartness from the equation and this naturally affects malt, hop and bitterness perception. Mash at a higher pH and buffer it towards the end of the boil. Adjusting your mash profile and grain bill - as you mentioned - will also help with their relative lack of mouthfeel. They're a very useful group of yeasts for those who lack fermentation control or hot climates where water is valuable/drought restricted and it's a struggle to get wort down to pitch temp. The flaws can be accounted for during the brewing process.

@jcinsaniac 4 года назад

I haven't bothered with Kveik yeast, because the only thing it seems to deliver is SPEED and perhaps, a bit more freedom if brewers who are starting out and they cannot yet control fermentation temps...just not beneficial enough for me to abandon more traditional methods since I have invested in a fermentation chamber and all that. If you can't do that, I'd look into this yeast. Kveik does have the benefit of longevity - it seems much harder to save/cultivate non-Kveik strains than traditional strains. (It may help that I tend to mostly use dry yeasts...your mileage may vary.) Good info! Cheers!

Any point in time you're having trouble looking for something you might as well make the trip down and/or give a call and if we don't have it, my boss Jim can probably get it

@Kazaii64 4 года назад

www.garshol.priv.no/download/farmhouse/kveik.html Reference this for max growth temperature for the yeasts (tested by NCYC yeast lab). Just to ensure that you will not kill it. You'll find it's generally 40-42c. That doesn't mean optimum temperature. I do 30c in the winter. 33c for strains closer to 30 (on that list) in the summer. Then 35c for strains that like it 35c+ in the summer (just about the highest my fermenter will heat to) Welcome to the Kveik train! You're right that the hype train has really died down. Lars released a new book and it was an excellent read. It's not about Kveik, but about the lost & dying culture of farmhouse brewing as a whole. Very very insightful.

@ghunter7931 4 года назад

Temp control is so easy and cheap to set up these days there's no excuse for not having it in place. And I find it easier to manage fermentation at sensible temperatures rather than the very high temps recommended for kveik. How they managed to maintain such high temps historically in Norway must be associated with another very long yarn.

Also if you ferment Kviek at 85 degrees versus you know as high as you can go you got a lot less cleaner fermentation.. I've literally gotten as much kviek strains as I possibly could and I've gotten some multiple strain forms straight from Norway... Voss is incredibly clean hornidal is amazing for ipas..

So we occasionally will show a technique of ours, or a piece of equipment we find cool. But most of the time we like to relate our experiences with ingredients and process. Then share that and have discussion with other brewers in the comments. We are just two dudes having fun and relating our experiences openly so that others have another data point. You should tune into some of our hop videos. Often we taste things that aren't on a market focused label for the hops we play with. I think that's pretty useful, at least it has been for us.
