Bag to Glass: Are Fresh Wort Kits Worth It? | The Malt Miller Fresh Wort Kit Review

Can a FRESH WORT KIT really produce beer that rivals an all-grain brew? In this video, I put a fresh wort kit to the test from bag to glass. I brewed The Malt Miller Fresh Wort Kit Base 1, then added my own twist with LAX dry yeast from WYeast and a big dry hop charge of Galaxy and Superdelic hops to create ANOTHER GALAXY PALE ALE 4.2%.

The final beer: 🍺 20 litre batch 🌿 85g Galaxy + 85g Superdelic dry hop ⚗️ Pressure fermented @8psi ⏱️ Minimal brew day effort The question was simple: Are fresh wort kits worth it? I compare the real cost of: ✅ Fresh wort kits ✅ Premium extract kits ✅ All grain brewing Including ingredients, electricity, brew daytime and the hidden cost of spending 5–6 hours brewing. The result surprised me — especially for modern hop-forward beers where the hops are often the biggest cost. I’ll taste the finished beer, talk about the haze, flavour, aroma and whether I’d use fresh wort kits again.
