On Today’s Show:

Todd is out of town and I gave James a break from always having to answer the questions on the show for me, so our friend and frequent co-host of the show, Ladik Joe Ermis from Homebrew Supply joined me today!

It’s always a treat when Joe is able to be on the show and I appreciate him so much. In fact, he went out of his way and basically wrote out the entire episode himself! I’m excited to share with you “5 Reasons to Switch from Extract Brewing to All-Grain Brewing”

We want to hear from you!

On Today’s Show:

We covered a lot of info on today’s show! Information such as helping a listener who has only brewed lagers up until now and he’s curious if he should use equipment exclusively for each style of beer he brews (one fermenter for lagers, one for ales, etc, etc). We also took a question about preventing mold. Our final question was about the appropriate length for liquid tubing when doing a keezer build and NOT using flow control faucets.

On Today’s Show:

In case you missed it, we presented a seminar last week for the 2020 #HomebrewCon ! Despite what Todd may have told you, #HomebrewCon was NOT cancelled (I won a $5 bet, you guys!) but, rather, it was restructured to being an online only event. Our seminar, “IN DEPTH: Draft Beer Systems & Building a Keezer” went smooth and we had an absolute blast doing it. You can watch it at https://www.homebrewhappyhour.com/in-depth-draft-beer-systems-and-building-a-keezer/ or by visiting our YouTube channel at YouTube.com/HomebrewHappyHour !

In this episode, we go over the fun of #HomebrewCon and we also take your questions! Specifically, we cover what to do if you accidentally put your gas or liquid disconnect on the wrong keg post (it happens!), natural carbonating your beer even if you keg, and a listener asks us about our favorite non-beer beverages to make when we aren’t brewing beer.

Lots of great info on today’s episode!
