I already do it as a hobby.

I just needed a way to disabuse myself of the fanciful notion that I might actually do it as a business. :)

You could do it as a business. You probably just can't run it out of your home. - TWuG Mar 29, 11:31 6
- yeah, capital investments aren't even in the picture. - znufrii Mar 29, 11:35 4
  - and if you lose one batch, whoops. -- nm - loosilu Mar 29, 11:36 3
    - which reminds me, you have no AC in your house. -- nm - loosilu Mar 29, 11:37 2
      - well, that too... :) -- nm - znufrii Mar 29, 11:38 1
        
        that's another capital investment you will need. - loosilu Mar 29, 11:39

when we did the math, we figured out that our homebrew was not much cheaper than retail beer. -- nm - loosilu Mar 29, 11:26 4
- that's pretty much what it works out to for me currently as well -- nm - znufrii Mar 29, 11:29 3
  - therefore how do you make a profit? -- nm - loosilu Mar 29, 11:30 2
    - well, I wouldn't likely be buying my ingredients retail if I were doing it at that scale, would I? - znufrii Mar 29, 11:34 1
      - that's not enough to make it worth while. -- nm - loosilu Mar 29, 11:34
