Welcome back to our #BrewDay: How to Brew Beer at Home series!
Part of our mission statement is that we exist to help preserve the craft of homebrewing, and also to help promote the craft of homebrewing. We are passionate about making beer and wanted to produce a video showing just how easy a #brewday can be.
In this video, we're continuing from the extract recipe kit we brewed in part 1 and now we're ready to transfer our beer from the primary fermenter into our secondary fermenter.
The equipment kit that Todd is using in this video can be found at the link below:

On Today's Show:
I'm, once again, graced by Todd and James's knowledge as they help me tackle your submitted homebrewing questions. We start off by taking a question from an avid extract brewer who is curious is he can do anything to a favorite recipe of his to help make the finished beer "a little bit dryer". Then, we talk about the importance of sterilizing additions (dry hopping) and how we go about doing that. That was followed by a question about upgrading to PVC-free beer lines and if the more premium liquid lines would allow for leniency regarding how often one needs to clean said lines (spoiler: Todd says clean them every two weeks!). Finally, we wrap up the show with a conversation on creamer functionality in CMB faucets and why it's a good thing. This was right up James's alley!
We want to hear from you!

Happy to have you back, homebrewer!
On Today's Show:
Todd and James are BACK from Germany/Austria! Even though I'm super jealous of their trip, it was great getting a recap of the Brau tradeshow as well as the fun they had while visiting Vienna.
On this week's episode, we discuss hygiene for your home kegging system. It's an often overlooked part of the draft beer experience but having clean tubing and dispensing components will make a *huge* difference in taste and pour. I always worry that episodes like this will bore our audience but I really do believe you'll learn something from today's show!
We also have November's live Q&A booked for members of our Patreon community! Live, at 1pm central on Friday, November 29th I'll be welcoming longtime friend of the show, Jason Chalifour. He'll be helping me take your questions on recipe building, malts, and anything else to do with brewing beer. This live Q&A is available to ALL Patrons at EVERY level. So, donate as little as $1 and get access to our private Facebook group as well as perks such as these live Q&As.
