I dabble in homebrewing, and the chemistry of brewing is very much a mystery to me.
However, the latest BeerSmith podcast (#14) has Dr. Charlie Bamforth going into some detail about what the enzymes are actually doing during the mash.
And it’s fascinating.
Dr. Bamforth is the Professor of Brewing Science at U.C. Davis, a chair that is endowed by Anheuser-Busch, and I think I could listen to this guy all day.
If you’re a homebrewer, or even remotely interested in how grain turns into this lovely concoction, give it a listen.
