On Today’s Show:
We’re back to tackle your questions about brewing and all things fermentation! We start off discussing the consequences of cold-crash suck back that sometimes happens from your airlock into your batch.
Then we take a question from a listener curious about when is the ideal time to filter your beer: pre-carbonation or post-carbonation.
After that, we talk about oxidation and if it’s possible to happen from carrying your fermenter from one place to another. There’s a lot of nuance and context necessary but the overall gist is – relax, don’t worry!
Then we wrap up this week with a question about secondary and “how long is too long”.
