Anyone else into homebrew? What kind of setup do you have and what kinds of beer have you brewed?
I'd love to homebrew, especially since my sister works for a brew supply store in Chicago and I can get all kinds of good stuff. She actually gave me a real nice kit with a for several different types of beer for Christmas a couple years ago but I haven't gotten the chance to brew any yet. It'll probably be a year or so until I have the time and patience to do it right. Not unlike biodiesel brewing.

Making sure everything is thoroughly sanitized is my biggest concern. I can hardly do anything right now without getting interrupted and forgetting what I was doing before the interruption.

I'd like to learn how to make vodka, too. I'd just like to see what kind of vodka I could make out of Maine Potatoes.
