  Is my Whisky Gluten Free?

  Sep 2, 202653 minS2

  Not long ago, a client was looking for a gluten free whisky yeast. I had never looked for something like that and boy oh boy did the rabbit hole get deeper. From the Science department, to the FDA, just about everyone has something to say on the subject. So sit back and pour yourself a finger or four, it's time for...The Beer Craft.

  Ai is Not a Brewer

  Aug 5, 202657 min

  I had an interesting experience in the homebrew shop the other day. A thirsty brewer had a hankering for Rogue Brewing's " Dead Guy Ale." The grain bill he asked me to fill was... different. The gravity looked normal, but the 15+ pounds of base malt and Munich didn't make much sense. I asked if his brewhouse efficiency was super low because you don't have to be a good brewer to get over 6% ABV with 15lbs of grain, and the gravity for this beer was lower still! I didn't know that AI can suffer from the Dunning-Kruger effect. The chatbot was so confident in the recipe output that it reminds me of the one guy you know. The one with the hair, the drives that car, the one who thinks he knows everything, and clearly doesn't. This week on the show, we break down what you can use ai for and what to avoid, right here on....The Beer Craft.

  Summer doesn't mean brewing season is over.

  Jul 1, 202657 min

  In this episode of The Beer Craft , Ben and Andrew dive into Northwest Brewers Supply's new Summer Brewing Series —four recipes designed to keep you brewing through the hottest months of the year. We tackle the biggest reasons brewers put the kettle away when summer arrives: warm fermentation spaces, busy schedules, and the misconception that you need a fermentation fridge to make great beer. Then we introduce four beers built to solve those challenges. You'll hear the story behind: Easy Summer Blonde – the perfect comeback batch for brewers who haven't brewed in a while. Lemondrop Wheat – a crisp, citrus-forward American wheat built for patios and sunny afternoons. Hot Garage Pale Ale – proof that with the right yeast and recipe, summer brewing is still on the menu. Sunset Amber – a smooth, malt-forward amber made for BBQs, fire pits, and those Northwest evenings when the hoodie comes back out. Whether you're dusting off your brew kettle after a long break or looking for your next seasonal recipe, this episode is packed with practical advice to help you brew with confidence all summer long.
