Join us as we talk to Lance about how science can show that what we thought we knew about Brettanomyces, Lactobacillus, and Sacch Trois, wasn't actually true.  We do a few deep dives into the paradigm shifts that Lance has helped to spear head in Milk The Funk's past.

Milk the Funk “The Podcast” talks about mixed and alternative fermentation for beer, wine, mead, and cider. “The Podcast” is an extension of the Milk the Funk Facebook group and wiki, where you will find the most up to date discussion on the science and techniques of mixed fermentation. The goal of Milk the Funk “The Podcast” is to cover the science we talk about in Milk the Funk, and to give some airtime to members who are involved in our group, including scientists, professional brewers, homebrewers, and beer historians. Our focus will be on specific topics discussed on the group page and bringing guests who we see our experts or innovators in that topic.

This is our MTF Live interview with Mike Matucheski. Milk The Funk tracked down Mike after wiki editor Dan Pixley posted about Charlie Papazian speaking about Mike and other pioneers in American homebrewing.
