On Today’s Show:

Now that we’re on the other side of 250, we bring you back to our usual format. Actually, before I go on I should say that I’m so thankful for every one of you who tuned in to our live brew day last week and I was overwhelmed by the positive feedback! A ton of you also asked if we’d do more live brew days so I managed to twist Todd’s arm into supporting that idea. Stay tuned for more details!
Todd and James joined me this week to take on 4 great questions. First, we have a listener who is going to mimic the set up we all use (1 immersion chiller in the wort and one in an ice-bath of it’s own) but he wants to know if he should also put his boil kettle in an ice-bath.
Then, our next question was from a listener who was gifted a mash & boil electric all-in-one and he wants to know if he should or shouldn’t sparge. Spoiler: we all sparge even on all-in-one brew days but we go over why you *should* and what you can do if you’d prefer to NOT sparge.
After that, we take a question from a listener who needs help harvesting yeast from his fermenter. What all needs to be saved and what is just trub?
Then we wrap up the episode with a question about upping the ABV of a beer AFTER its’ primary fermentation is complete. Can this be done and how can it be done, if possible?

We want to hear from you!

On Today’s Show:

I had a blast on this week’s show as Todd and James both joined me to tackle your questions. We started off the show with a question about Perlick flow control faucets and why they aren’t “full” flow control. As Todd called them, “flow control light” might be the better phrase. Learn more about why CMBecker flow controls are your best solution for proper restriction flow control.
 
Next, we have a listener interested in learning more about what a diacetyl rest is and when you need to do one. Specifically – are you utilizing a diacetyl rest for hybrid beers like kolsch?
 
After that, we address a question regarding when to compensate water volume: pre-boil or post-boil. There are a lot of factors that may change how/when you do it but I think we addressed most cases.
 
Then we wrap up this week’s episode with a question about brewing crispy pilsners. What’s the most crucial part of the brew day to achieve crispiness? Tune in to find out!

On Today’s Show:

Todd and James join me to take on YOUR homebrewing questions which included –
A listener wanted to know what he might be doing wrong because he’s 12 brew days into the craft and hasn’t been happy with the head retention every beer has had. We give our opinions on what might be causing it and a bunch of options for troubleshooting and resolving!
Another listener is upgrading from buckets and wants a conical fermenter. Even though he’s only brewing 5 gallon batches (for now), will using a conical made for larger volumes (10 or 15 gallon batches) be an issue while he’s still brewing 5 gallon batches?
Next, we took a question about kettle insulation after a listener saw an ad for one. Why would you use insulation on a kettle?
Then we end this week’s show with a question about “fixing” a stout that finished WAY too dry. First off – Todd says that there is no such thing as TOO dry. What do you think?

On Today’s Show:

Todd and James join me to take on YOUR homebrewing questions which included –
 
One listener wrote in about secondary fermentation time and is it necessary to let the beer sit up to 4 weeks?
 
Also, another member of our community emailed me asking if using a wort chiller is “necessary” during brew day and if he can get by without using one. This was a tricky question with a lot of factors in our answers but I think we covered it good.
 
After that, we took a question regarding an “infected” keg. The listener who wrote in has been having issues with beer having off flavors in this one specific keg he’s serving them out of. Bad brew days or an ‘infected’ keg?
 
Then, we wrap up this week’s episode with a question about rehydrating dry yeast versus sprinkling it on top of our wort.

On Today’s Show:

Don’t call it a comeback but all three of us are finally back on the show together! Just in time too because Todd and James are about to be heading out and flying into Denver for the 2021 Craft Brewers Conference. I don’t want to talk about why I’m not going with them. 😐
 
On the show this week we did have a great time. Our first question was about the hop testing pale ale I brewed and the specialty grains that I had forgotten to add to it.
 
Next, a listener asked us about what type of milling he should do to his grains if he’s brewing on an Anvil Foundry.
 
After that, we took a question about filtering your wort in between the kettle (during your brew day!) and whatever device you’re using as a fermentation vessel.
 
We then wrapped up this week’s show with a question about dispensing from a keg that is lying on its’ side. Good idea or terrible idea?

We want to hear from you!

On Today’s Show:

Sorry about taking last week off! I was actually out sick and I’m still recovering from it but I’m ‘normal’ enough to crank out a new episode for y’all and I’m thankful that Todd was able to join me as well. In this week’s episode, we help a listener who is brewing off-site and wants to take their portion of a batch home with them immediately after brewing so they’re curious if anything might get ‘messed up’ in transit. 
 
Then, we take a question from a new brewer who wants some advice on taking hydrometer readings. Should the test tube be only clear liquid or is it OK if some floaties make their way into the tube?
 
After that, we have a listener write in who is looking to switch to electric brewing but they want to know how often they should expect to calibrate the temperature controllers on an e-brewing system. 
 
Finally, we wrap up with a question from someone who accidentally transferred beer into a clean but unsanitized keg. Is his batch going to get infected or is he over thinking it?

We want to hear from you!

If you have a question that you’d like us to discuss on a future episode, please click on the “Submit a Question” link at the top of our website or you can now call in your questions via our questions hotline @ 325-305-6107 and leave your message after the beep. This is a friendly reminder that, if we choose your question for a future episode, we give you a $25 gift card to that episode’s sponsor!

cheers,

joshua
