Episode 4: My flights improve my slugging

Episode 4: CLICK ME FOR POWER


This week I talk about batch #2 of home brewed beer I was a part of, this time WHEAT beer.  Also discuss an IPA flight that will make you wet your pants.  Any questions, please email me at baseballbeerpodcast@gmail.com or twitter @baseballbeerpod.

 The remaining....stuff after putting the wort into the carboys.  Looks more delicious than last week!

 Working on the mash to put back into the pot for our WOOOOORRRRRTTTT

 Boiling pots.  Lots of heat (on a warm day)

 Inside with air conditioning, watching the pots boil

 Transfering water from pot to mash maker

Stirring the rice/wheat/barley into the hot water to make our mash... the baseline for Wheat beer.

Episode 3: Home Brews value comes from walks

This weeks episode dives into home brewing.  Here are some pictures from the day!

 This is what it looks like right now, fermenting.  But the cooler is blowing a lot more bubbles.  The carboy is full of the wort we created using hops, liquid malt and grains made to mash.

 From the mixing pot into the carboys.  Pure wort.  You want sugar water with a stroooooonnngg aftertaste?  Have some!

 Throwing hops into the boiling mash that we're trying to turn into wort.

 Stiring the mash with the liquid malt in preparation for the hops

 It's exactly what it looks like.  Teabagging grains to get the mash.  Weird grunting noises may have occurred.

After the carboys were filled with the wort, this was the leftover goop in the pot.  It looks exactly like what you think it is.  Can't say if it tastes like it.
