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

witnessing the conversion of Wirt 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 croyson 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 Brulosophy podcast while you're at it. All right, on to the show. Ask any brewer what the most important factor in making a quality batch of beer is and

fermentation temperature will likely top the list. Indeed, all commercially available yeast

have suggested fermentation temperature ranges, which only serves to buttress that fermenting

either too cool or too warm can really have undesirable consequences, especially in certain circumstances.

You're listening to the Bruososophy podcast. I'm your host

Marshall Schott and joining me on this episode to chat about the impact

fermentation temperature has on a blonde ale is contributor Martin Keene.

Yeah, Marshall, I was thinking about that. When you buy a packet of yeast, it says on the packet, the fermentation temperature, and I can't think of anything else, any other ingredient that we use in brewing, where it does specify, like when you buy grain it doesn't say

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

it makes my brain and your brain and and most of us here of Brullosophy think well

what happens if I go on the low end or the high end,

or what if I ignore this completely and go completely outside of that range, what's going to happen?
