I am a father first and foremost. I am an electrician by trade, and I used to grow pot professionally. I enjoy bodybuilding and all that comes with that "sport". I like making things that are consumable and have some sort of effect, thus brewing is right up my alley!

- It was all by accident. I go to a LHBS to buy dextrose (glucose) for my protein shakes (I make all of my own supplements with my own recipes based on tons f research; I like making stuff). And, at some point, I started drinking hard cider. One day, I was getting some more glucose, and the though occurred to me that I could brew it myself. So I asked the guy behind the counter what it takes to make hard cider. He gave me a slip of paper with a very vague recipe. Then I asked how much would it cost to get the stuff I needed to make a batch. It was hella cheap, so I bought the things to whip up a batch. A month later, I have four 2 liter jugs and two 2 gallon jugs brewing right now. How do you know when to stop?!
