Cheers, gents! The right time never comes without a little pushing, so I'm going to start moving into making beer for money. Not having capital be damned! But I'm not stupid. I can't do this for free. And I don't particularly want to break the law. I need a commercial kitchen that has an...

I'm coming back to brewing after a year off or so. I basically liquidated my brew works when I went on hiatus. I kept the bare minimums to make a batch. So about two weeks ago, I did a Boring Brown Ale. Promash has the recipe starting SG at 1.039. I didn't check because I no longer have a...
