In this video, Mike walks through his deep dive into mash pH and water chemistry. He collected mash pH data across fifteen beers using a proper pH meter. The goal was to understand how mash pH affects attenuation, clarity, and overall beer perception. This video is a long one but it’s well worth it for […] The post Mash pH in Homebrewing Beer Research Project appeared first on Brew Dudes .

Mike brewed and we tasted a British Brown Ale for this post. Mike has been thinking more about attenuation in his beers. This batch was part of that ongoing experiment. Not a surprise, but this experiment is a part of his return to British-style brewing. These are styles he brewed often years ago and he […] The post Adventures in Attenuation – British Brown Ale appeared first on Brew Dudes .
In this episode, Mike poured an American Pale Ale and walked through a dry hopping experiment using corny kegs. The beer was brewed as a seasonal pale ale with a focus on hop expression and fermentation performance. Mike wanted to test whether loose dry hops inside a keg fermenter could improve hop character without clogging […] The post Pale Ale Dry Hopping In Keg Experiment appeared first on Brew Dudes .
Mike set out to brew a clean, crisp American Blonde Ale. Instead, he ended up with something that looked suspiciously like a hazy pale ale. Mike called me over claiming instant carbonation magic. By the time I arrived, it was pouring with a solid head. I had no idea what the style was supposed to […] The post American Blonde Ale Experiment Gone Hazy appeared first on Brew Dudes .
