Welcome to Fermentality, a podcast about the art of homebrewing and fermentation. We started this podcast because we believe homebrewing is an essential and rewarding hobby but can also be isolated and closed off. At our homebrew shop Atlantic Brew Supply in Raleigh, NC, we've seen firsthand the need to introduce the next generation to fermentation's joys and make the craft more visible and accessible. That's why we created Fermentality – to celebrate and promote the hobby of homebrewing and to help keep the art of fermentation alive. Tune in as we explore the world of homebrewing and fermentation and share the stories and experiences of brewers from all walks of life.
