We start off the How to Start a Brewery Series with one of the most important aspects of brewing great beer: fermentation temperature control. That's why we invited Tom Stone from Thermal Care to walk us through everything brewers need to think about and plan for when installing a glycol system.
In this episode we discuss:
1. Why fermentation temperature control is so important
2. How to find the right glycol chiller for your brewery
3. How to lay out your glycol piping for maximum efficiency
4. How to properly build and insulate your glycol loops
5. Oh yeah, and we drink a couple beers

Special Edition: Hopsource with Chris Swersey from the Brewers Association
Kaleb puts his nose to work at Hopsource smelling new experimental public hop varieties. Hopsource was a week-long event hosted at Yakima Valley Hops by the Brewers Association and Draught Lab to sniff out future superstar hops.
Chris Swersey from the Brewers Association walks Kaleb through the sensory evaluation process as well as talks about how the BA is supporting the public breeding program, what goes into breeding experimental hops, and what your nose can tell you about hops in a single whiff.
Apologies for the episode getting cut short, but please email Kaleb@yakimavalleyhops.com with any follow-up questions for a Part 2 with Chris in a couple weeks.
