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

witnessing the conversion of wort into beer through the fermentation process. Even after 15 years,

I still get giddy when I see the first signs of airlock activity, a nice fluffy croissant

developing on top of my beer. The worst is when this takes too long. 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 into each pitch right pouch, which assures quick starts, healthy fermentation, and

predictably great results. I strongly urge all of our listeners to check out everything Imperial

yeast has to offer and let them know that you appreciate their support of the Brewosophy podcast while you're at it of questions submitted by listeners of the show. Yeah, as I told you at the top of, you know, before we got started recording, I actually really love these episodes that we do together. I love when we get these Brunez. I love you guys putting in

questions and giving us something to spitball and talk about. So just keep them coming. I think

these are some of the best episodes that we do and I really enjoy recording them. Yeah,

I say it every Bruin A episode that these are some of my favorite episodes as well. And there's multiple reasons for that one. I feel like in, you know, 36 Bruin A episodes, which is over 360, if you,

we haven't really gotten two of the same question yet. Maybe we have, and I just don't remember,

which would be perfectly plausible, given where I'm at my age and my life. But I'm with you.

They're just so much fun. We've got such clever questions that come in. And what I've been

noticing is a trend of people asking questions that aren't so much about beer, which is going to

happen in this episode. Now, one of the many benefits of being a patron of brewlossophy is that we often ask them for

show ideas as well as prioritizing their questions for these brew and a episode, which is what

we're going to be doing today. So if you're wondering how to become a patron or perhaps have no

idea what I'm even on about, patrons are those people who appreciate what we're doing

enough to support us over at patreon.com slash brewlossophy, whereby making a small monthly pledge
