  • 391: Kevin Ely of Wooly Pig Finds Small Tweaks That Make Big Impacts in Robust, Farm-Brewed Lagers
    Dec 13 2024
    Kevin Ely spent many years running the brewhouse at Uinta’s production brewery in Salt Lake City, but family brought him to a farm in rural eastern Ohio. Built next to the farm where his wife grew up, Wooly Pig (https://www.woolypigfarmbrewery.com) Farm Brewery is the result of applying big-brewery-systems thinking to the smallest, most self-sufficient farm scale. From embracing the imperfect but interesting well water on the farm to side-streaming brewhouse waste via their drove of Mangalica pigs, he’s using every tool available to reduce waste and costs while making the highest-quality beer. In this episode, Ely discusses: making farmhouse lagers on a small scale without sacrificing quality gently handling everything—from milling grains to fermenting beer via carefully boiled wort—for a more delicate beer using slightly higher-kilned pilsner malt for better flavor and fullness building character into dunkel with rye malt evaluating water sources and managing their unusual well water creating engaging beer experiences at the farm using livestock to process organic waste from the brewery And more.

  • 389: An International Look at Brewing Barrel-Aged Stout with Firestone Walker, Omnipollo, and FrauGruber
    Nov 29 2024
    Barrel-aging is nothing new for Firestone Walker’s (https://www.firestonewalker.com) Matt Brynildson. He got his first exposure to the process while working for barrel-aging pioneer Goose Island in Chicago, and for the better part of two decades has been exploring the impact of wood, aging, and blending in the development of beer flavor at Firestone Walker. A post-pandemic initiative at the Paso Robles brewery, the Brewmaster’s Collective (https://www.firestonewalker.com/brewmasters-collective/), has created new occasions to explore processes and approaches through collaborations with a range of brewer friends, and in this episode Brynildson is joined by two collaborators—Henok Fentie of Stockholm, Sweden’s Omnipollo (https://www.fraugruber-craftbrewing.com), and Enzo Frauenschuh of Gundelfingen, Germany's FrauGruber (https://www.fraugruber-craftbrewing.com). Together, they take a look at the similarities and differences in barrel-aged stout brewing in the United States and Europe. Along the way, they discuss: building recipes that can support strong flavors finding the balance between sweetness and drinkability artful flavor composition maintaining some semblance of house character through collaborations expressing barrel notes cleanly through lean and well-attenuated beers temperature impact on barrel expression varying ingredients based on the continent developing flavorful bases both through English malts and with blends of Pilsner and Munich malts managing barrel-entry gravity for long term success planning for adjuncts in recipe design adjunct addition processes and extraction efficiency And more.
