During our December meeting, we were joined by Jen Blair, Beer Program Director at New Realm Brewing Co. in Atlanta, GA. Blair spoke to our group on the topic of basic all-grain recipe formulation for homebrewing. Learning the hows behind the whys of all-grain brewing gives brewers a deeper understanding and appreciation of their raw ingredients as well as their finished beers. Blair walks brewers through basic grain bill and hop calculations as well as share some of her favorite resources for building beer recipes.
