Stop Buying Beer! 🍺 Make This EASY Blonde Ale at Home

Want to brew beer at home the easy way? 🍺 In this video I show you how to make a simple Blonde Ale using the BIAB method (Brew in a Bag) — perfect if you only have one pot and basic equipment. This is my last brew before heading back to Italy 🇮🇹 and of course I had to make a hoppy version, almost like an IPA, using Apollo and Styrian Dana hops for a citrusy and floral aroma 🔥 🍺 INGREDIENTS 1,5 kg Pilsner malt 200 g oats 5 g Apollo hops (bittering) 6 g Styrian Dana hops (aroma) Yeast (reused or dry yeast) Total water: ~10 L ⚙️ METHOD (BIAB – Brew in a Bag) ✔️ Mash at 52°C or 125°F – 10 min ✔️ Mash at 67°C or 153°F – 60 min ✔️ Sparge at 78°C or 172°F ✔️ Boil for 60 min ✔️ Optional dry hopping for extra aroma (5 g Apollo hops + 5 g Styrian Dana hops ) 🍻 RESULTS OG: 1.046 FG: 1.001 ABV: ~6.5% Style: Blonde Ale / IPA hybrid (hoppy and aromatic 😎) 💡 TIPS You can replace hops with your favorites Avoid oxidation during transfers and dry hopping Don’t overdo priming sugar (max 8–10 g/L) Reuse your yeast for future batches 🍺 🍽️ FOOD PAIRING Perfect with: Homemade cured meats Spicy salami 🌶️ Fresh focaccia 📦 EQUIPMENT I’ll leave links in the description if available 👇 fermenter: https://amzn.to/4mvWqMN capper: https://amzn.to/4ticGUo BIAB bag: https://amzn.to/427Vi8R 📚 BOOKS & RECIPES You can find more recipes in our BOOKs The Homemade Series : https://amzn.to/4sZDU24 🔔 SUPPORT THE CHANNEL 👍 Like the video 🔔 Subscribe for more homebrewing content 💬 Comment if you try this recipe!
