Our February meeting will be the first meetup at the Hacker Lab’s new location, 2533 R Street at 7 p.m. on Tuesday, February 12.

Our style for the evening is ciders and meads, and we’ll try a few examples.

Pitching enough healthy yeast is a key to making good beer. Our educational topic for the night is a discussion of yeast pitch rates and starters, with some demonstrations from Manny and Rob. We’ll also harvest some dregs, and there will be some yeast and starter wort to take home.
