Brewing investment

Invested in a variety of yeast and cider making equipment. A friend of mine came by and tried some of my home brew. Next visit he went home with some of my cider and left me a new (to me) work station and 24" monitor. What an investment.

Exactly what it's supposed to be.

Only thing better would be getting my hands on specific yeasts used by, say, De Garre.

Quick to do it's work against a high OG Tripel (chewed through 1.108 in three days). Would have liked more spice notes, but c'est la vie.
