Secondly, homebrewed beer can be every bit as good as — if not better than — a lot of commercial beer, with more flavor and character than most. In fact, avoiding mass-market beer was the original inspiration for homebrewing. Thirdly, homebrewing is a hobby that pays many dividends, from having your own house brand of beer to hanging colorful award ribbons on your wall to earning the undying admiration of your beer-drinking buddies. (Warning: Admiration can be addictive.) In this chapter, I give you an overview of the topics covered in detail in the rest of the book as well as a bit of the history of homebrewing and its recent surge in popularity. COPYRIGHTED MATERIAL Homebrewers Abound! Becoming a homebrewer means you’re in good company. According to the American Homebrewers Association (AHA) in Boulder, Colorado, an estimated 1 million homebrewers are brewing in the United States. That’s a lot of brewers. And the hobby continues to expand every year. Recent estimates indicate that over 1,000 homebrew supply retailers and several hundred homebrewing clubs have popped up in response to homebrewing’s growing popularity.

It is because so many of you show up and go absolutely apeshit over these incredible young bands. Bands that play LOUDFEST can‘t wait to come back over here because they have heard for many years how useless it is to book shows in College Station. They had no idea about downtown Bryan. Rola at Revolution Café & Bar and Eric at The Stafford have filled a rather large void. Down- town Bryan picks up that slack. So many of the older people who came out to their first LOUDFEST last month 979Represent is a local magazine had no idea that any live local music goes on around here, let alone ANYTHING at all in downtown Bryan. for the discerning dirtbag. They assumed it was Northgate or nothing. So many bands have heard the horror stories from other bands about getting dicked over on money, parking and promotion by the few Northgate clubs that still book bands that they see Aggieland as a market to avoid. LOUDFEST is helping to change that attitude. Editorial bored LOUDFEST is booked every year out of a sense of brotherhood. We book bands we like and want to see.

For more information, please contact [email protected]. A Room with a Brew: A Comparative Look at Homebrewing Laws in Japan & the United States CHRISTOPHER J. FRAGA* Following the enactment of Prohibition, it took the United States almost four decades to legalize homebrewing. Subsequently, the nation experienced a booming interest in beer. And not just beer, but good beer. Drinkers found them- selves invested in both quality and variety. This interest has matured into the craft beer industry. Even in holdover states, where state laws prohibited homebrewing far past 1979, the craft beer industry has experienced near exponential growth following the legalization of homebrewing. This has resulted in significant economic implications. Given these consider- ations, nations with restrictive homebrewing laws, like Ja- pan, should consider easing them.

  • Homebrewing Faqs
    TRAINER’S NOTES Homebrewing FAQs LESSON OBJECTIVE: Review some of the frequently asked questions customers may have about homebrewing. ESTIMATED COMPLETION TIME: Approximately 4 minutes for the video. HOW TO USE: Show the video. Use the Summary section if you wish to review the main points in the video. Use the Additional Discussion section to spend more time on this topic. SUMMARY OF POINTS FROM THE VIDEO: • Q: What does it take to homebrew? or, Can I do this? A: Yes, you can do it. Many in the homebrewing community say cleaning and sanitizing the equipment and vessels is 95 percent of what is required to make great beer. • Q: What do I need to brew at home? A: Here is the basic equipment: • Stainless steel kettle (if the customer does not already own a large stock pot). • Fermentation vessel (food grade bucket) and lid. • Bottling bucket with a spigot and bottle filler. • Hydrometer and test jar (for measuring the amount of sugar in solution). With proper measurements the ABV (alcohol by volume) can be calculated for your beer. • Autosiphon (for transferring liquids between vessels). • Airlock (to allow the escape of CO2 without letting air back into the vessel). • Bottle capper. • Cleaning product—Powdered Brewery Wash (PBW). • Sanitizing product—recommend Star San—use small amount in a tap water solution. • Carboy—glass or plastic vessel for secondary fermentation (optional). • Q: What kind of investment is required? A: Equipment kits—from $69 to $139—depending on optional items and whether or not the customer has a brew kettle. This is a one-time purchase that can be used for all successive batches.

  • The Time, Space, and Money Involved with Homebrewing
    The Time, Space, and Money Involved with Homebrewing By Billy Broas Homebrew Academy Founder Time The important time factors are: • How long it takes to brew and bottle your homebrew • How long it takes for your homebrew to be ready to drink I’ve included a slick interactive graphic (you’ll see more of these inside the H.A.) that is a timeline of the brewing process: Click to view interactive graphic To recap, there is: 1. Brew Day: 3-6 hours 2. Fermentation: 2 weeks 3. Bottling Day: 2-4 hours 4. Carbonation: 2 weeks So there are two major days in the brewing process, brew day and bottling day. There is also a 2 week waiting period for fermentation between brewing and bottling, and another 2 week waiting period after bottling while the beer carbonates. You’ll see that the entire process, from brewing until the day you can drink the beer, is one month. Those are only guidelines, however. The time until ready depends on factors like alcohol content, beer style, and ingredients. I’ve brewed some batches that were below average after 2 weeks in the bottle, but after outstanding after 6 months. Typically, higher alcohol beers need longer to condition. After two weeks they are a little bit hot and need time to mellow out. On the flip side, wheat beers are best when very fresh. For new brewers, I recommend that they don’t brew a beer that requires extensive aging right off the bat. The temptation to sample is too great with your first brew, trust me! American or British ales are a great way to get started.

  • Rub of the Green: How You Can Help Mother Nature … Or Not,New
    A 3D World Illuminates Back in a former life, I was a scientist — a biologist, technically — and somehow I managed to excel in the intricacies of genetic mapping, tracing the effects of divergent and convergent evolution and explaining why males and females have varying levels of investment based on the principle of anisogamy. Yet certain fields of science and technology have always eluded me, so when I visited the new virtual reality installation at Brown University, I was content to understand none of the mechanics and just play around like a kid at Disneyland. They are calling it The Cave, but it bears more resemblance to the holodeck in “Star Trek.” Project Manager Tom Sgouros welcomed us Motifers (I visited with fellow Motif writer Mike) into a special- access-only building, where 20 computers, 69 video projectors, 145 mirrors and about a mile and a half of video cable would soon work together to make us feel like we were shooting asteroids and walking inside of the human brain. But that was yet to come. Sgouros explained that this was not the first virtual reality installation at Brown. Their first installment — one computer running seven projectors, with no mirrors, inside of a small cube — fueled the desire to go bigger and better. It’s like going from a potato gun to a cannon, except this isn’t all about fueling the fantasies of science nerds; the primary intended purpose for this installation is research. Hence the brain. The first thing Mike and I were instructed to do, after removing our shoes, was to put on the glasses.
