Andrew Voss is a local hop farmer here in Arvada Colorado and he is also a member of the Olde Town Mash Paddlers Homebrewing Club. He is a very experienced hop farmer and I invited him on the show to talk about how to grow your rhizomes into hops you can brew with. So get ready for those late summer wet hop beers and get growing some hops.

Today’s show is a bit of a different format. I will not have a guest on this episode today we are going to deep dive into a specific homebrewing subject. That subject is going to be fermentation chambers and temp control. We will also go out to some to the brewing community and see how then do temp control. Sit back and relax and lets deep dive together.

I personally have not home-distilled. I have seen it done but never have I distilled myself. With the advent of these new electric brewing systems where you can but a still top for them, I wanted to talk to someone about what you would need to get started. Then I asked George Duncan of Barley and Hops Brewing on YouTube to join us and talk about what you would need to get started. We also talked about the cool hydrometer he built for the blind using and Arduino. It is super cool.
