On Today’s Show:
Todd, James, and I take on your questions in this week’s show.

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!
