On Today’s Show:

Todd and James join me this week for another fun-filled episode. We had JUST finished recording this week’s episode of Recipe Recap & Review, so pardon us if we’re still giddy from the delicious beer we drank for that show. If you missed out, check out the episode here https://www.homebrewhappyhour.com/recipe-recap-review-ep-05-my-first-pale-ale/

For THIS show, we catch up on brew days we’ve completed, talk about some upcoming stuff, and take YOUR questions. Specifically, we cover whether boiling your wort for an hour is arbitrary or intentional, how to calculate when to add hops in case you had to boil down your wort for the sake of gravity, and best practices when storing your jockey box. We kind of cover the spectrum in this episode and we had a great time doing it!

We want to hear from you!

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!

Let us know what you think and enjoy the show!

cheers,

Joshua

On Today’s Show:

Todd was out but James was able to join me and help take a couple of intermediate-type questions for this week’s episode! It’s always nice when we can dig in to more complex topics and Mr. Carlson is the man when it comes to helping me understand. Specifically, we discussed the differences between RIMS and HERMS systems and why one may work better than the other in certain situations, and we also talked about brew house and mash effeciencies. It was a great show!

On Today’s Show:

First and foremost – we hope you are hanging in there and keeping healthy during these weird times. “Weird” is about as appropriate word as we can think of. I said this in a newsletter and I’ll say it again — if you need anything, ANYTHING, that we can provide or help you with then please don’t hesitate to ask. We love you guys and will get through all of this together.

On the show — James and Todd join me, remotely, to take your questions on adjusting your brew days when life throws you lemons (i.e – when you’re in quarantine at home!), choosing a grain mill to buy, and mill settings when crushing grains for partial mash brewing.

On Today’s Show:

We always love it when visitors come to town and we were especially excited to welcome Kenny Highman, aka The Brewer of Seville, back on the show AND live in studio. Well, not “in studio”, more like “in the barn” but you get what I’m saying.

Kenny made the trek from Ohio all the way down to the heart of Texas to hang with us. We brewed some beer, drank LOTS of beer, and caught up with him and what he’s up to these days.

On Today’s Show:

You might not believe this but Todd couldn’t join us today because… get this… he’s on a freakin’ helicopter RIGHT NOW shooting hogs from it. Yes, you read that correctly. James and I are both incredibly jealous of the amazing time that Todd is, undoubtedly, having. In case you’re wondering – hogs are a TERROR here in Texas and are vastly overpopulated on Todd’s ranch where they’ve been literally destroying the land which is affecting all the other wildlife that rely on Todd’s property. So… don’t feel bad for the little piggies 😉  !

ANYWAY – that means it’s just James and I today but thank God he joined me because I could not have done today’s show without him. We discuss whether you should follow the temperature ranges listed in your recipe kit versus what’s on your yeast pack (ideally — they’d both be the same ranges), we talk about how important pH levels are in regards to the mashing process, and a listener writes in with a question on best practices for cleaning his Grainfather unit.
