That's awesome! Still, what I really wonder about is how you would brew in space. Without gravity you have no head space. The bubbles don't "rise" because there's no up. How do you build a fermenter that allows CO2 out without also squeezing out your fermenting beer? Would your beer be more carbonated because the gasses would just settle in the beer rather than rising to the top? So many questions. Come on science! Get on it!
I'm picturing some sort of fermenting bag that's gas porous but not liquid permeable. In fact, that sounds like a good invention for earth brewing too. Eliminate the risk of O2 or germs getting in.
