    Default Greetings from California

    It's been a pleasant experience on the chatter. Last night i opened the first bottles of homebrew and one was good while the other just hasn't carbonated enough but the taste is there for it to be a great beer (it's only been a little over a week). Back in highschool i brewed 4/5 batches of rootbeer and though they were good, it just was never the same as these first few batches of beer. My name's matt, Born and raised in the east bay and currently studying City Planning at Cal Poly in San Luis Obispo.

    I'm really into music and DJ at the cal poly radio station, and ride my bicycles all over the place. And love to chat about anything really..

    here are some pictures from my first brewing experience, so thanks and ready to learn some shit and chat about brewing here.


    the fermenting chamber...

    my bottling room..


    thanks for keeping me around for more than 3 posts!
    you guys rock
    just kickin it...

    Your own fucking cave - very original. Can't buy one of those from northern brewer.
    So what would MODOK do if his memory got too full?
    He'd find a powersource and then he'd pick what plugs to pull.

    Wow, nice fermentation chamber. You need to hang a skeleton from some chains on the wall for when you take people down to show them your beer..

    Hey snails! Welcome. I'm in Santa Barbara here, not too far from where you are. O'Cairellian and Heinz57 aren't too far away either. Good to have some local HBC'ers. We gotta plan a meetup sometime, somewhere.
