We start off discussing the consequences of cold-crash suck back that sometimes happens from your airlock into your batch. Then we take a question from a listener curious about when is the ideal time to filter your beer: pre-carbonation or post-carbonation. After that, we talk about oxidation and if it's possible to happen from carrying your fermenter from one place to another. There's a lot of nuance and context necessary but the overall gist is - relax, don't worry! Then we wrap up this week with a question about secondary and "how long is too long".

Happy to have you back, homebrewer!

Click the link and join today -- https://www.patreon.com/bePatron?u=21132635 On Today's Show: Our first question on this week's show is about scaling up or down a recipe and what that means for your mash and your boil times. Spoiler: it doesn't mean much and we go over why. Then we tackle a question about pitching the "wrong" yeast on brew day. Will the batch be a total dud and dumpable or could it turn out to be a pleasant surprise? Next, we discuss why ball lock disconnects seem to be interchangeable (as in: liquid disconnects appear to fit on a gas post) yet when you accidentally put the wrong disconnect on a post, it's very difficult to remove. What do YOU do when that happens to you? Our fourth and final question on this week's show was about what grains and hops we would keep around at all times if we were buying in bulk. Another spoiler: it only takes Pilsner malt and Vienna malt plus some noble hops like Hallertaur to make a solid kolsch! :) We want to hear from you!

First, we talk about what to do when your fermentation just doesn’t take off. Is the batch ruined? Do you need to dump it? Tune in and hear our opinion! The next question we took was about whole cone dry hopping. Not gonna lie, I just nodded my head in affirmation during this part because I’ve never used whole hops at all. What are your thoughts: pellets or whole or both?! After that, a listener wrote in about repairing a single valve on a multi-valve manifold. Is it possible to repair and/or replace or does the whole thing need to be worked on? We then wrap up the episode with a question about using sanke kegs in a homebrew set up. How hard is it to fill one? Dispense one? That and more! We want to hear from you!

Our first question came from a listener wanting to know if he is going to be able to fix his 'flat' (under-carbonated) beer. Thankfully, for him, we have the carbonation pro - Mr. Todd Burns - to reassure our friend that there is nothing to worry about. After that, we take a question from a homebrewer who wants to know if it's OK to cold condition his fermenting buckets outside. The question was short and sweet and the answer was too (until I dragged it out because I love adding nuance to listener questions!). Then we heard from a Trub Club member who accidentally forgot to add his aroma hops during his brew day. Never fear - James Carlson is here to help.

After many years of consuming gallons and gallons of their beer and talking incessantly about Breakfast Stout on this show (to the point that Todd banned me from mentioning it ever again), I finally booked Founders' brewmaster, Jeremy Kosmicki for an interview. It was SO MUCH FUN too! Jeremy is such a down to Earth dude and we had an incredible time getting to know him and talk shop. Todd and James joined us as well and we all talked brewing, the craft beer scene in the 90's, a day in the life of a brewmaster, and lots more.

I especially love our guest for this week's show, Lorena Evans! She's been in the scene for a long time and is best known as Yooper on our favorite forums Homebrew Talk and our favorite brewing software Brewer's Friend. Lorena is, without a doubt, the best fermenting specialist that I know. She's an incredible brewer and has a TON of knowledge stored in her head. Seriously - ask her anything about fermentation and she'll have THE answer for you. It's incredible. If you're not a fan of episodes we do where we digress all the time and have a hard time staying on topic, then you *might* not fully enjoy this week's show. It was my fault but I just had so much fun with Todd and Lorena out on the ranch patio that it was hard for me to not geek out and enjoy myself in the conversation. However, if you're a fan of fun and organic conversations among friends then I highly recommend that you stick around and enjoy an interview with one of our most favorite people in the world.

How long is "too long" when it comes to chilling down the wort post-boil? & our final question "best practices for barrel aging beer in a keg?"
