On Today's Show:

Don't let the craziness of election week keep you from enjoying the fun-filled episode we've got for you today! Todd and James join me to tackle your questions such as "what is the best way to take gravity readings of your beer if you're fermenting in a standard bucket", "how long will my beer last if I share it with friends in a growler instead of bottling it", "when upgrading my fermentation gear, should I convert a fridge/freezer and make a fermentation chamber or should I buy a conical and glycol chiller set up?", and "is it possible that my keg is causing my beer to go bad or become infected?". Lots of great questions and it was a blast covering these topics for you!

We want to hear from you!
