    Words for the dead.

    I've made a few friends on here. People I think of outside this site. People who's conversation I value, who's name and face I know.

Cider Update · 12:36am Dec 13th, 2016

The English will stay in the conical fermenter until I have the Belgian in bottles.

In the U.S. one has to register a distillery apparatus with the ATF, and the pay takes on what you plan on distilling before you distill it.
