The Brülosophy Podcast

Contributor Jake Huolihan joins Marshall to chat about a method that allows brewers to cut both time and complexity out of their brew day by skipping the sparge step. Commonly referred to as no sparge brewing, this method involves mashing with the full volume of brewing liquor, meaning a much higher liquor-to-grist ratio, which some believe can produce wort with varying differences in quality compared to traditionally sparged beers. We address these concerns and discuss an exBEERiment Jake performed on no sparge brewing as well as our experiences using the method ourselves.

For the first episode of The Brülosophy Podcast, we focus on the topic that started it all— the impact a high amount of kettle trub in the fermentor has on beer! Brülosophy contributor Malcolm Frazer joins Marshall to discuss two exBEERiments investigating kettle trub and how the results have impacted their own brewing methods.
