High Gravity Brewing

Brewing beers with high original gravities (above 1.065) requires some modifications to normal brewing procedures

Yeast Fermentation

Fermentation is the heart of the brewing process. During fermentation, wort created from raw materials is converted to beer by yeast

Clarification & Flocculation

A bright beer is the result of good brewing techniques, an understanding of the fundamentals of clarification, a good filtration system, or a combination of all three.

Oxygenation & Aeration

Oxygen is a critical additive in brewing. Oxygen is the only necessary nutrient not naturally found in wort. Adding adequate oxygen to wort requires a fundamental understanding of why yeast needs oxygen, how much oxygen they need, and how to get oxygen into solution and the factors affecting solubility of oxygen.

Wild & Sour Brewing

Brewing beer with wild yeast and bacteria adds a new level of complexity to an already complex process. Making beer with these specialty cultures is less precise and much less predictable than brewing with a single yeast strain. The rewards however can be tremendous if a brewer has patience.

Lager Brewing

Brewing a true lager takes a little bit more work and specialized equipment than brewing an ale. The most important factors in brewing a good lager outside of recipe formulation are: yeast strain selection, pitch rate, and fermentation temperature.
