Class Overview 13/10/2010
We have harvested all kombuchas and honey-whey coolers. The data would be posted tomorrow. We have had a foreign visitor who is a cellar master in Manchester, UK. It was really fun to have him around and we are now going to do some "life sampling" in to the pubs in the neighborhood.
Talk to you soon,
