I am so happy to be partnering with Monster Brewing Hardware because, for the LONGEST TIME, y’all have namedropped Monster as THE best consumer grain mills on the market. They’re affordable and they’re durable – the perfect combination for a cheapo like me. I’m also so happy to be featuring the owner/operator/sole employee doing it all over there – Mr. Fred Francis, on this week’s episode. Fred is very down to Earth and reminds me a lot of why I love this industry and the Mom & Pop stores that are the backbone of this hobby we call homebrewing.

So, with that being said, it’s time for another episode of our Homebrew Happy Hour podcast!… THE home brew #podcast where we answer all of your home brewing questions and discuss anything related to craft beer! This week, I’m so happy that Todd and James are both on the show. It was a great time recording and we covered a lot of ground, I think.
