So I've got this feeling that I'm not the only one on this forum who enjoys making my own alcoholic beverage. I started brewing my own beer about a year ago and it's becoming a hobby that I value more and more (not at the expense of my bladesmithing, off course). I've noticed already that I can use some of my bladesmithing experience while brewing, I have for instance rigged up pid-controller for accurate temperature control of my mash tun. As we know from http://www.bladesmithsforum.com/index.php?showtopic=6905 beer and blacksmithing goes hand in hand
Maybe it's time we could start comparing notes about malts, hops, yeasts and other goodies that go into the magic brew pot?
