Correct Transcript:

Good afternoon, beer lovers! Today, I'll dive into the fascinating world of craft beer production. First off, the choice of grains is crucial; barley, for instance, imparts a rich taste. The process begins with mashing, where grains are soaked in hot, but not boiling, water. This step is followed by boiling, where hops are added for bitterness and fragrance. After cooling, yeast is pitched for fermentation, converting sugars into alcohol and carbon dioxide. Lastly, the beer is conditioned, carbonated, and then ready for drinking.
AI explanationShows the answer. Tap to open.
Printed "selection", the speaker says "choice"

Explanation: On the recording the words are "the choice of grains". The words start with different letters, and the one you hear is much shorter.

Printed "flavour", the speaker says "taste"

Explanation: Listen again to "a rich taste". The words do not start the same, and the spoken word is shorter.

Printed "steeped", the speaker says "soaked"

Explanation: In the audio you hear "grains are soaked". Both words start with s, so listen to the whole word.

Printed "aroma", the speaker says "fragrance"

Explanation: Here the speaker says "added for bitterness and fragrance". The spoken word is much longer and starts with a different letter.

Printed "introduced", the speaker says "pitched"

Explanation: The speaker says "yeast is pitched", not "introduced". They end the same, so listen to the start of the word.

Printed "turning", the speaker says "converting"

Explanation: Listen for "converting sugars into". The word you hear is much longer than the printed word.

Printed "tasting", the speaker says "drinking"

Explanation: You will hear "ready for drinking". They end the same way, so focus on the front of the word.

"barley" matches the audio

Explanation: "barley, for instance, imparts a rich" is on the page. It looks like a small trick, but the speaker says it exactly, so do not click it.

"carbonated" matches the audio

Explanation: "the beer is conditioned, carbonated, and then" looks like a changed word here. It may draw your eye, but the speaker says it exactly, so do not click it.
