As an established grower there are lots of reasons to pull out one variety and replace it with another.  What, when, why and how?

It’s our first recording in two months.  Wait, what?

Is this our new name?  Or a discussion of the science and business ramifications behind hop creep?  Maybe it’s both……

Fabricating is, of course, building something proven with a plan and purpose.  When you’re in need of a quick fix you “cobble something together”.  So what is Fabricobbling?  Using the experience and skills at your disposable to create a one-of-a-kind machine that you, and only you, require.  This week we’ll entertain you with hop yard fabricobbled devices.

We’re back with Alex from Lion’s Tail Brewing in Neenah, WI.  This time we get into Covid impacts, talk about his brewhouse and play some games.

Carping, hilling, scratching, ripping, root pruning.  Let’s get dirty!

Chemistry episode!  James’ courses at Siebel are back and this week he talks to us about biotransformation.  Yeast chemistry interacting with hop properties to create new stuff that wasn’t there before.
