Back when I lived in a country where beer was not the cheapest beverage at the supermarket, I got into homebrewing. It evolved from a way of merely saving money to brewing some really nice beers, especially as I like the science of it. Got sick of cleaning bottles all the time, so being an engineer I came up with a better solution.
Only problem was having to leave it behind, I miss it almost as much as I miss my Midget...
