A few years back I got tired of having to choose between the mass-produced swill that most Americans have fallen into calling beer, and the decidedly better but pricey imports & hand crafted micro-brews. So I decided to try my hand at homebrewing beer and wine.

My favorite homebrew shop also happens to be run by an engineer who turned a hobby into a business....hmmm.
