Persona:
- My SCA persona is 13th century Welshman whose father left the priesthood for the woman who would eventually become my mother.

My father and mother both had experience in the brewing arts and handed down their knowledge and skill to me.

Current Interests and Activities
I enjoy doing research. I particularly like to find modern scientific support for common practices in the Middle Ages. I am researching the development of lager beer in the 15-16th century. I am particularly interested in the evolution of yeasts that allowed for the cold fermentation characteristic of lagers. Here is a link to a research paper I wrote for Kingdom A&S 2016.
I recently began to read the latest literature on genetic analyses of yeasts used for wine, bread, beer, and sake. This research gives us some insight into domestication and population migration in earlier millennia.
Researching the origins of Nocino as well as making this unique liqueur. Currently, I am experimenting with the effects of oak from different origins on the flavor of Nocino. Here is a link to the first part of a series I wrote for my blog. Each successive part links to the next entry.
Researching the modern research on hops that validates the use of hops for menstrual problems in the Middle Ages. Here is a link to the first in a three part series about this issue on my blog.
Arrow-making - self nocked arrows with horn or hardwood inserts.
Shooting exclusively Period equipment since 2015.
Beginning to shoot a crossbow and make crossbow bolts in 2016/2017.
