We had JUST finished recording this week’s episode of Recipe Recap & Review, so pardon us if we’re still giddy from the delicious beer we drank for that show. If you missed out, check out the episode here https://www.homebrewhappyhour.com/recipe-recap-review-ep-05-my-first-pale-ale/ For THIS show, we catch up on brew days we’ve completed, talk about some upcoming stuff, and take YOUR questions. Specifically, we cover whether boiling your wort for an hour is arbitrary or intentional, how to calculate when to add hops in case you had to boil down your wort for the sake of gravity, and best practices when storing your jockey box. We kind of cover the spectrum in this episode and we had a great time doing it! We want to hear from you!
