I am currently a machinist in the heat treat field in the Aerospace sector for a major global supplier. I started brewing in 2005 and then stopped after moving to Ohio. I have recently decided to get back at it and am very passionate about my brew. I hope to get some refreshers and pointers as well as contribute when I can.
