The Blog

Most homebrewers start their hobby with a small aluminum kettle, some malt extract, and a plastic bucket.

Indeed was no different.

Josh, our head brewer, was so enthralled with brewing after his starter kit that he walked down to the Green Mill in St. Paul to volunteer his time cleaning, carrying, and picking up the fundamentals of commercial brewing. Before long Josh crossed the Mississippi River to a job at Town Hall Brewery. After a couple years there Josh moved to Portland, Oregon where he brewed at the Main Street Ale House before returning to Minnesota's Town Hall Brewery two years later where he has served as the lead brewer for the past five years.

Thanks to the generosity of our friend and fellow homebrewer, Mike Mulville, we were able to acquire the use of this 15-gallon RIMS homebrewing system for use as our pilot system during startup phase of Indeed.

"The Mike" as we call it, is similar in design to a SABCO system. Digital temperature control, mash recirculation, and whirlpool make this system a joy to brew on.
