I know I said “Happy HomebrewCon” at the top, even though this is NOT our HomebrewCon presentation, but I mentioned it because HomebrewCon is going on RIGHT NOW as you’re reading this… or, if you’re late to this episode, it already happened and we probably had a blast and totally didn’t mess up our presentation or do a bad job at all, right?!

If you don’t know what HomebrewCon is, the best way to describe it is “an awesome 3 days of informational seminars, fun hang outs, and growing as a homebrewer”. Go over the HomebrewCon.org right now and sign up to join the fun.

Todd and James join me this week to tackle your awesome homebrewing questions. We recorded from the brew room at HQ because James was having a brew day on our new Brautag system! It’s now available at Kegconnection.com (CLICK HERE) and we couldn’t be more excited. Also – we still have 4 passes to HomebrewCon Online to giveaway and you can enter for your chance to win by clicking HERE. Drawing will be on Monday, June 14th. 

Also – if you’re listening to this episode and wondering “I follow them on Instagram and I didn’t see anything about blending beers this week” it’s because Todd and I drank too much before we remembered that we didn’t blend any beers last night. We’ll get to it another time, especially since I’ll be up at HQ ALL NEXT WEEK as we prepare for our HomebrewCon Online 2021 seminar on brewing on a HERMS system.

It’s been a while so I am super stoked to welcome back Homebrew Supply’s Director of Operations, Mr. Ladik Joe Ermis! Joe is an incredibly under-utilized resource, mainly because he’s SO BUSY managing the day-to-day production operations for Kegconnection LLC. I begged him for an hour of his time and, lucky for all of us, he was able to join me this week and tackle your questions.

Todd and James are back on to help me take your questions and get thru another fun-filled episode of our show. Thank God too because the questions we have for this week pretty much require the expertise of Todd & James so I’m thankful that 1) Todd was feeling up to doing the show and 2) That James was available because I rely on that guy’s wisdom SO MUCH for this show.

I gave Todd and James a break since Todd is out of town for a medical procedure and James works so hard – they both deserved the week off. However, I was thrilled to welcome my friends Tyler & Laurie from the Brew’d Up podcast on the show. We’ve had Tyler on before and it was great catching up with her as well as meeting Laurie and learning more about what they’re brewing, how they’re brewing it, and all about their podcast.

James and Todd are back with me to take your questions and chit-chat the day away. We had a PACKED episode today and I, personally, had such a good time recording it with these dudes. Questions about whether or not it matters how your sparging water hits the mash, what kind of tunes are we listening to when we brew, how to keep your beer glassware clean, and one listener wanted to know if he should throw out his batch because he caught his dog drinking from the boil kettle (BEFORE the wort got to boil, of course).

We’re back with another fun-filled exciting… ok, I have to stop there. Look – I definitely have fun every week and I definitely think our show is exciting but I’ve had some people tell me that it’s not as exciting as I think it is… Either way, I was joined by Todd and James to take your questions and provide the answers to the best of our abilities. I think you’ll learn a lot this week as we had a nice selection of questions.

James and Todd joined me, once again, because I need help if I’m going to get adequate answers for you all! Kidding aside – you know that doing this show with these dudes is the highlight of my week and I’m proud of the show we’re bringing to you today.

On a related note per a wager I made with Todd last week, you’ll be happy (or sad, depending on how you feel about me) to learn that I DID avoid getting my balls kicked by Todd because I did manage to publish the second part of his extract brewing series on time! WOOHOO!

I had the pleasure of being joined, once again, by my favorite people who I work with and record weekly podcasts with – Mr. Todd Burns and Mr. James Carlson! They helped me take your questions and we covered a wide variety of topics today. I even got to pretend like I’m an expert on kombucha, so I had a blast!
