    Episode 29: Jon Dieter and His Gold-Winning Hazy

    Jon Dieter just won Gold at this year's National Homebrew Competition for his hazy IPA "XXM: Double Extra Medium" - and in this episode, Jon talks about his process of making hazy beers for competition, for himself, and how he juggles the two. He's got some sweet insight on making these IPAs stand out and how to make the brews that you want. His curiosity is unmatched, and that's led to making really good beer...especially in this category. Jon's Instagram "XXM: Double Extra Medium" Grist -- (for 5-gallon batch values) 56% - Gambrinus Pilsner (9lbs) 12.5% - Golden Promise (2lbs) 12.5% - Flaked Oats (2lbs) 12.5% - Malted Oats (2lbs) 12.5% - Torrified Wheat (2lbs) Acid malt for pH adjustment in mash 75 minute boil Hops -- (5-gallon batch values) FWH - Simcoe 1.7AA (.5oz or 14g) WP 170°F - Citra (2oz or 56g) WP 170°F - (10g each) Citra and Mosaic Incognito Dryhop Post Fermentation at 50°F or 10°C (8oz or 227g) Citra Cryo and (4oz or 113g) Nectaron.

Yeast -- Bootleg Biology: Classic New England Notes: Jon needed to add 1lb pilsner DME during fermentation to hit his target ABV of ~8% with his efficiency numbers. Single-infusion mash at 152°F or 66-67°C. Water is a 2:1 Cl:SO4 with target values being 150:75ppm Thanks again to Jon for talking with us and giving us his winning process and recipe. Cheers!

    Episode 28: Why I Love Homebrewing and Think You Should Too

    Please take the survey here: Where Are You In Your Homebrewing Journey? This episode goes into a couple of reasons I love homebrewing. Yes, it is a creative and fun outlet for many (myself included!) to experiment with weird and different flavors; but I also like a few other aspects as well. I think beer is an under-appreciated beverage. Many people think that it's either a tasteless, classless beverage brewed with syrups of a manufacturer's choice or an over-flavored, bitter, snobby craft drink. And while those can be true, I think that intention of beer really is to be a flavorful, drinkable, sociable, and inclusive alcoholic beverage that brings all people together. I want to help people get to that point of making amazingly delicious, fresh, and highly assimilating drinks that people enjoy and have fun with. I may break my legs coming down from my soapbox... If you haven't already and want to learn more about how I make great NEIPA, head on over here and sign up to receive a short video series on it! Progress Your Beer And episodes will be coming more frequently and on a better schedule than they have the past couple of months. So please stay tuned!

    Episode 23: Fermentation Temperature Control

    Fermentation temperature control is arguably the most important aspect of brewing great beer.

    Episode 22: Czech Premium Pale Lager-What I've Learned

    This episode is about the basics of making Czech Premium Pale Lager (Pilsner Urquell). I think this is one of the most beautiful beers every created as it uses a lot of brewing knowledge and prowess to pack so much flavor into a low ABV and infinitely drinkable beer. It's always been a beer style I want to master, and I've gotten as close as I can. I share the process and ingredient selections that I've learned make the best version for my expectations of the style. Enjoy!
