Thank you! It'll be far out since I just found out that my home town does not allow the manufacturing of alcohol, and before I proceed with any planning I have to petition for a referendum on next November's ballot to try to change that law

Love the labels!

Agreed, I am a wife and have kids, and I love to brew. A large portion of my basement and house is taken up by my brewing equipment. Marriage doesn't have to end your fun. My husband loves the fruits of my labor and my 4 and 2 year old love to help me

I was looking into starting a small craft brewery and thought cans would be more cost effective. But with a quick Google search I wasn't able to find a good source for cans. I found one site that I called to get a quote and no one answered, so I was hoping people here had experience and knew...

What does everyone use for a recipe calculator, and or recipe storage? I have an app on my phone for it, but it's missing a lot of ingredients.

Im not sure if this is where I should post this but I was wondering if anyone could steer me in the right direction of where I coukd find good priced used oak barrels. I've seen them posted on here before and wasn't sure where else to look. I've called local wineries, and did a Google search. I...

Thank you for all of this info! I read before that they have triple the lycopene that tomatoes do. It's weird with how abundant they are, that they aren't harvested and used much. I'm not sure I'll have the time to gather 18#. Do you think that it would blend well with another juice, or even...
