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. All right, listening to the 370th episode of the Brulosophy podcast. That's just 30 episodes away from hitting the 400 episode milestone. Crazy, crazy, crazy for me to think. Anyway, as most of our listeners know, we reserve every 10th episode for our Bruin A series where we respond to a handful of questions submitted by listeners

of the show. I'm your host to Marshall Schott, and this week I'm joined by contributor Jordan

folks. I love these episodes. They kind of can go in any given direction, and I appreciate the

variety and excited to get into it. Yeah, I think I say it every time, but I love these Bruin A

episodes just as much as you do, Jordan, not only because they require a little bit less work than our typical content, but the questions we've been getting lately are pretty rad.

It just, you know, not stuff that's easily Googledable. Plus, it seems that people are finally starting to trust us when we say that they don't just have to ask about beer and brewing. And let me tell you, some of the questions on this episode are going to be far from beer and brewing related. One thing we have to ask about beer and brewing, and let me tell you, some of the questions on this episode

are going to be far from beer and brewing related. One thing we have started doing, though,

is prioritizing questions submitted by our patrons. It's just another benefit they get for supporting

us in that way. Now, if you enjoy this show and want to help us to keep producing it, we would

love for you to become a patron of brewlossify as well, which you can do over at patreon.com slash brewlossophy.

By making a small monthly pledge, you'll receive rewards like access to unpublished contributor

recipes, unique discounts at Yakima Valleyhops.com, and an invitation to a monthly live

Q&A session with somebody in the brewing world.

Coming up next month, March of 2025, Brulosophy contributor, host of the Brulosophy Show,

and the only person on the crew with an English accent, our very own Martin Keen will be taking the helm again.
