Hate the term "pour"

What black magic are you practicing?

without shipping on a bag of grain i could do it....when i lived in nor.cal. and morebeer was my LHBS, bag of malt pick it up for $32-36, say 8lb's of it, pound of crystal. maybe an ounce of hops. repitch yeast...BAM! cheap beer!

and this before i was using NG so the propane would have been about 3 bucks...maybe 4....(i did eventually learn the sound of a jet engine is just the sound of me spewing unburned propane into the atmosphere, got three batches out of a tank instead of 2...)

Nothing fancy... grain by the sack, hops by the lb., harvested yeast. Bitters are easy to bring in cheaply because they’re maybe 7 lbs of base malt ($7 of Golden Promise) and an ounce or two of hops (maybe $1 or $1.50 worth of Bramling Cross or EKG).

Even if you’re poor you can pore over prices until it’s coming out of your pores, all to reduce that price per pour. (There, back on topic.)
