One of the experiences I trust every home brewer shares is the feeling of awe that comes from

0:04.4

witnessing the conversion of Wirt into beer through the fermentation process.

0:08.9

Even after 15 years, I still get giddy when I see the first signs of airlock activity, a nice fluffy croyson developing

on top of my beer.

The worst is when this takes too long.

0:17.8

You all know the anxiety that comes from checking on a batch a day after pitching and seeing no action. This is why we love Imperial yeast who pack 200 billion cells of the purest yeast

1:33.9

mash it at this temperature and so forth. So when you do get that then it I think

1:39.1
