61 <!-- Page published by Emacs Muse begins here --><p>Once upon a time I brewed beer. Then I lost access to my roommate's
62 kettle owing to moving three hundred miles, and there was much sadness
63 for my poor kit lacked all but this very expensive kettle. A new
64 kettle has finally fallen into my hands, and so beer may be brewed
67 <h2><a name=

70 <p class=
"first">I started brewing again with a few friends (makes it much easier to
71 actually get around to doing it when you have help). Since multiple
72 people are involved we are using
<a href=
"http://wiki.calefaction.org/HomeBrewing">a wiki
</a> to collaborate. This poor page
73 will probably remain dusty because I can just put things there

78 More Recent Brews
</h2>
80 <p class=
"first">I decided to at least make a stab at being unlazy and actually linking
81 to the files that are stored with the website. I keep a reasonable
82 brewing log (probably dry and boring to almost everyone) in the files
85 <p>I'm only bothering to list recipes that have been brewed and bottled
86 here
—information on anything in the pipeline is at the
<a href=
"http://wiki.calefaction.org/HomeBrewing">brewing wiki
</a>
87 since it is liable to change a lot.
</p>
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 is no longer actively maintained and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>
90 is I've switched over to that. Meaning my newer recipes are in
<a href=
"http://beerxml.com">BeerXML
</a>
91 that theoretically can be imported into other programs, but may very
92 well only work in Brewtarget.
