We start off the How to Start a Brewery Series with one of the most important aspects of brewing great beer: fermentation temperature control. That's why we invited Tom Stone from Thermal Care to walk us through everything brewers need to think about and plan for when installing a glycol system.

In this episode we discuss:
1. Why fermentation temperature control is so important
2. How to find the right glycol chiller for your brewery
3. How to lay out your glycol piping for maximum efficiency
4. How to properly build and insulate your glycol loops
5. Oh yeah, and we drink a couple beers
