After receiving a couple of bottles of my friend's homemade orange wine in 2011, I was bitten by the homebrew bug and have been making my own concoctions ever since then. Due to the long wait for a fermented beverage to reach completion, it's a good idea to keep notes if one hopes to recreate a particularly tasty batch. It's hard to remember what strain of yeast one used on a wine that was started a year ago, not to mention the necessity of recording the original gravity of a brew in order to calculate ABV later. I started jotting notes down on paper but decided I wanted to maintain a more permanent collection of information that could be shared with others. I created this site to log measurements for my own reference as well as share photos and tips for other amateur homebrewers.
