It's a good while since I dropped by,so first,hello! My brewing is basically from kits ( not as advanced as some of you chaps),wine and beer. I also make fruit wines and WOW.This past few months I have been making what you guys call a 'sugar wash'. It is a recipe from Andy Hamilton's ' Booze...

Sorry lads, not been around in awhile. I am still brewing, mainly kits, but I want to expand into all -grain brewing. Cheers!
