We covered a lot of info on today’s show! Information such as helping a listener who has only brewed lagers up until now and he’s curious if he should use equipment exclusively for each style of beer he brews (one fermenter for lagers, one for ales, etc, etc). We also took a question about preventing mold. Our final question was about the appropriate length for liquid tubing when doing a keezer build and NOT using flow control faucets.
We want to hear from you!

In case you missed it, we presented a seminar last week for the 2020 #HomebrewCon ! Despite what Todd may have told you, #HomebrewCon was NOT cancelled (I won a $5 bet, you guys!) but, rather, it was restructured to being an online only event. Our seminar, “IN DEPTH: Draft Beer Systems & Building a Keezer” went smooth and we had an absolute blast doing it. You can watch it at https://www.homebrewhappyhour.com/in-depth-draft-beer-systems-and-building-a-keezer/ or by visiting our YouTube channel at YouTube.com/HomebrewHappyHour !
In this episode, we go over the fun of #HomebrewCon and we also take your questions! Specifically, we cover what to do if you accidentally put your gas or liquid disconnect on the wrong keg post (it happens!), natural carbonating your beer even if you keg, and a listener asks us about our favorite non-beer beverages to make when we aren’t brewing beer.
Lots of great info on today’s episode!
We want to hear from you!

We wanted to remind you that #HomebrewCon Online starts TODAY! If you haven’t registered yet, head on over to HomebrewCon’s website and sign up. There’s lots of fun talks, information to be shared, and yours truly will be giving a presentation on draft beer systems and how to build out a keezer. We had such a good time preparing this seminar for you all and I hope you enjoy it as much as we have. There will also be a coupon code given out to all #HomebrewCon attendees who make it to our seminar so be on the lookout for that as well! Have a fantastic rest of your week and we hope to see you at this year’s #HomebrewCon Online.
cheers,

Todd and James join me and we take YOUR homebrew related questions. We are also very excited to announce that we’re going to be giving a presentation at the upcoming virtual #HomebrewCon ! It’ll be on draft solutions and building a kegerator/keezer. If you haven’t already signed up for #HomebrewCon, consider signing up today. If you aren’t already a member of the American Homebrewers Association, your registration will come with that membership.
It was a great show covering topics such as the possibility of drilling thru the door of a “standard” kegerator , how to deal with foam issues from your draft system (check out the video below for even more info on that topic), and the best practices for dry hopping your beer. It was jam packed with info and I hope you enjoy this episode!

I had the pleasure of welcoming the Director of the American Homebrewers Assoication, Mr. Gary Glass! Gary is a long time brewer and has also been with the AHA for a long time. He joined me to discuss the upcoming Virtual Big Brew Day hosted by the AHA and we also talked about his history as a homebrewer and other things because, you know, I have a hard time staying on topic sometimes. It was a fantastic interview and Gary helped provide important information about the event that we hope you sign up for because it should be a ton of fun!
