Experimental Brewing 69 - Sunshine Hop Dreams and Disastrous

Post by denny »

https://www.experimentalbrew.com/podcas ... trous-days

Two big things on today's show as we get ready for HomeBrewCon! The first, we asked you for your Brewday disasters and boy did you deliver. So we're going to run through some of our favorite stories of things gone horribly wrong. And in more positive and hopful news, Drew talks with Richard Smith of Florida Hops, LLC about the challenges of pulling off the improbable - growing hops in the humid heat of Florida. We'll find out new techniques he's establishing and the impact of Florida terroir on our favorite hops!

1) I too have had the dreaded "grains in the spigot" of my mash tun and had to scoop out/pour the mash into other containers to clean it out. Then back in......)(&$(*^@&*#%!@&^$#%!&*$&)@!!!!!
2) I'm intrigued by the notion of hops from Florida. We'll have to wait and see but where there is a will there is a way.
3) Cheers for the shout-out on the podcast, Denny.
