PhD in microbiology with a specialty in yeast who owns a very successful whiskey distillery and subcontracts out excess capacity to the big boys. This will open your eyes.

I was interested in the fact that Dr. Pat is probably the chief supplier of liquid enzymes to HD members.

Thanks for sharing that video.

I was fortunate enough to speak with Pat on several occasions and he was a huge help. The guys knows his stuff.
