Brewing and Distillation- Intro Brewing and Distilling

Hi, I'm Jake and welcome to Brewing and Distilling! In this podcast I will be taking on the massive task of taking an in-depth look at all aspects of brewing and distilling, with the aim of promoting a good general understanding that will apply to both home and professional distilling! The rough plan for this is to cover: 

Brewing for Distilling:

 - Raw materials and sources

 - Processing raw materials for use

 - Yeast and Fermentation

Distillation:

 - Distillation Theory

 - Types of still

 - Stripping and Spirit Runs

 - Continuous Distillation



Aging and Maturation:

 - Blending and Dilution

 - Barrel Aging

 - Filtration

 - Packaging



Each topic will likely last multiple episodes and will dive into the nitty-gritty of things such as what is going on inside a grain of barley as it's malting, how yeast metabolises and grows, and the reactions that take place inside a barrel of rum!



Please let me know what you think, and if there's anything more you'd like me to cover.
