podcast. We've got a hell of a show planned for you today.

Brulosophy contributor Ray Found is joining me to talk about one of the most

integral components to making beer. We're going to get to that in a little bit.

First off, some stuff that we need to talk about first. We just released the what I'm calling the general

home brewer survey that I'd really like for everybody who's listening right now to go and take it's really easy to find just go to bruolosophy.com and if you go to the home page and you scroll down you will see eventually a an article titled 2017 General Home Brewer

survey now what is this survey it's actually something that I started back in

2015 it asks a whole bunch of questions that basically give us an idea of what

home brewers look like today. And it's not the most well-written survey. I know some questions

can be asked a little bit better, but it's pretty interesting,

and that's really the whole point, is just to give us some information on what Home Brewers look like.

So please go check it out, BruLosophy.com, and scroll on that home page until you find the 2017 general

home brewer survey.
