20080208 - The tally from last year

2007 was a pretty gung-ho brewing year for me. I've been brewing quite a bit and also purchasing some new equipment. I was wondering just how much I spent on brewing and brewing equipment. So here's the tally:

TOTAL $2372.87

With that total I made 150 gallons of beer. I think I had one or two gift certificates that saved just a touch and I know that one batch was commissioned by a friend (he paid for the recipe). About $1000 was for equipment that I can use the rest of my life - I got another CO2 tank and a beergas system.

Simple math of 8 pints per gallon gives 1200 pints and $1372.87 in recipe costs so my beer is costing $1.14 per pint? Hmm. Premier beer - it's worth it!
