Howdy, Homebrewer! Welcome back to another episode of our podcast!

We hope you had a great weekend are we REALLY hope that you’ve got a brew day planned for this weekend. Not only do we have a brew day planned for the weekend, but we’re also going to be hanging out at Oskar Blues Brewery in Austin, Texas on Saturday (04/14) recording episode 82 (next week’s show) in their taproom! This is always a great excuse for us to visit breweries and drink beer. Sounds terrible, right?

Today’s show was a blast! We discussed tips and suggestions for folks looking to enter into homebrew competitions as well as RIMS brewing systems and how they compare to the other methods of brewing available.

Along with our friendly reminder that this weekend, we’re giving away the amazing COOLBOT (link above), it’s Friday and we have a BRAND NEW episode of our homebrew podcast for you guys. On today’s episode: it’s Joshua, Todd, and James discussing a question about using a refractometer and potentially getting away from using a hydrometer at all. The pros of using both, the cons of each, and lots more was discussed. We hope you enjoy this episode as much as we did!

Happy Friday, Homebrewer!

We’re excited about the holiday weekend and are happy to be bringing you another fun episode of our podcast.

This week we’re talking with the Vice President of Sales & Marketing at CoolBot, John Bergher!

It was great meeting John and hearing more about what the CoolBot is and the great ways we as homebrewers can use it. Even better, the team at CoolBot has been gracious enough to partner with us and our show sponsors to do a GIVEAWAY for a FREE COOLBOT! How cool is that (see what I did there? eh? eh?!)?

Details on the giveaway can be found HERE.

This week brings HomebrewSupply.com ‘s Ladik Joe Ermis onto the show to help Joshua (the helpless) field YOUR homebrew questions.

Specifically, we’re talking about false bottoms vs other methods in Igloor coolers, batch versus fly sparging, and ‘automated’ brewing setups! It’s a blast!

Thanks for joining us once again for another fun filled homebrew happy hour podcast!

Today’s show is packed with excitement! By “excitement”, we mean that ONCE AGAIN all 3 guys are in studio and taking your questions! Specifically, the guys discuss adding volume to mini-mash recipes (James has some fantastic input and advice) as well as a question regarding the development of your own mini-mash recipes and what the pros and cons are versus purchasing pre-developed mini-mash recipes.

Howdy, Homebrewer, and welcome back to another fun filled episode of our podcast!

Believe it or not, we were able to rope Todd back in to the studio and ALL 3 of the guys discuss your questions today on starting equipment preferences and a question on faucet choices. James is the man on faucets so Todd and Joshua may or may not have just let him talk for 20 minutes while they pretended to know things too…

Welcome back to one of the top 1000 shows about homebrewing!

We don’t actually know if there’s even 1000 podcasts out there about homebrewing, but we are confident that we’re in the top 1K if there does happen to be.

Kidding aside, we have a wonderful episode to present to you today. Todd is out of town again (we’ll go ahead and give him kudos since he took his wife to go see Elton John in Vegas, so we can’t hate on him too much) so it’s a Q&A show with Joshua and James! On today’s show, we take your questions regarding “What is secondary fermentation?!” and also “Does fluctuating temps really matter during fermentation?”.

What’s better than a new episode of your favorite homebrew podcast?

The answer: NOTHING. 🙂

When we don’t have a new episode to offer you though, the next best thing is a giveaway just for you all! Make sure you listen to this painfully long (2’ish minutes?) announcement on how we’re giving away $50 gift cards to Kegconnection and Homebrew Supply! You’ll hear how you can enter your name into the drawing AND how there’s ways to get multiple entries.
