Scott's Midnight Brewing Company

Scott's Midnight Brewing Company This page covers my home brewing hobby from raw materials, to brewing, to drinking beer. All things great were once simple.

I started home brewing in 2008 using malt extract, a cheap five gallon pot, a kitchen stove, and a couple of plastic buckets. I named my home brewery operation "The Midnight Brewing Company" because I am by nature a night owl and also because in the early days I brewed almost exclusively late at night when my wife was not around to complain about the smell! Now I brew "all grain" batches using a C

hapman 10 gallon stainless steel mash tun, a Digiboil electric hot liquor tank, a propane burner in the garage, and a dedicated temperature-controlled chest freezer as my fermentation chamber. I am not afraid to brew anything or tackle any new style, but my favorite beers to brew and drink are the styles that originated in England, Scotland, and Belgium. My brewing philosophy centers around a relentless pursuit of brewing better and better beer.
