Just a reminder that we will be hosting a Learn to Brew event tomorrow at Bell's General Store in downtown Kalamazoo. We will be getting started at 10am but feel free to stop by anytime during the morning and early afternoon. We're hoping to get 5 different brews going so you can see all the process. Bring your friends, family and co-workers!
This is a friendly reminder that we will be holding our monthly meeting this Monday, October 15th at 7:00pm at Old Dog Tavern in downtown Kalamazoo. This month's program is on brewing software. Do you have a favorite piece of software you use to make recipes, crunch numbers or track your batches? Contact us (chris@klob.org) so we can include it in the presentation!
