61<!-- Page published by Emacs Muse begins here --><p>Once upon a time I brewed beer. Then I lost access to my roommate's
62kettle owing to moving three hundred miles, and there was much sadness
63for my poor kit lacked all but this very expensive kettle. A new
64kettle has finally fallen into my hands, and so beer may be brewed
65again.</p>

68Current Activity</h2>
69
70<p class="first">I started brewing again with a few friends (makes it much easier to
71actually get around to doing it when you have help). Since multiple
72people are involved we are using <a href="http://wiki.calefaction.org/HomeBrewing">a wiki</a> to collaborate. This poor page
73will probably remain dusty because I can just put things there
74instead.</p>
75
76
77<h2><a name="sec2" id="sec2"></a>
78More Recent Brews</h2>
79
80<p class="first">I decided to at least make a stab at being unlazy and actually linking
81to the files that are stored with the website. I keep a reasonable
82brewing log (probably dry and boring to almost everyone) in the files
83themselves.</p>
84
85<p>I'm only bothering to list recipes that have been brewed and bottled
86here&mdash;information on anything in the pipeline is at the <a href="http://wiki.calefaction.org/HomeBrewing">brewing wiki</a>
87since it is liable to change a lot.</p>
88
89<p>Since old trusty <a href="http://www.usermode.org/code.html">QBrew</a> is no longer actively maintained and <a href="http://brewtarget.sourceforge.net/">Brewtarget</a>
90is I've switched over to that. Meaning my newer recipes are in <a href="http://beerxml.com">BeerXML</a>
91that theoretically can be imported into other programs, but may very
92well only work in Brewtarget.</p>

95Ginger-Chamomile Wheat Ale</h3>
96
97<p class="first">Cheap and quick to make this is ready to drink after a mere 11 days
98fermentation and another five or six carbonating.</p>

106Nowruz (India Pale Ale)</h3>

119
120<p class="first">An attempt at experimentation&mdash;an adjunct (blackstrap molasses), a
