We are going to begin compiling a recipe database that will be available for anyone to upload their favorite recipes that they want to share.  This is one of the many sections that is still under construction, but will be available soon. The tools section of the website will be a place for various brewing tools and calculations.  Refractometer calculator, hydrometer correction calculator and some other interactive tools will be available.  In addition, we plan on having a current water report for the High Point city water to be posted as well. Our first meeting was attended by an overwhelming 16 people and hopefully that will continue to grow as time moves on.  Our primary goals as a club are to become a strong community of brewers who work together and learn from one another.  We want to become an involved member of our community by participating in any local events that will allow us to share our homebrew with others so that we can show what a generous group of people our hobby has.  Our current meeting schedule is to meet the second wednesday of every month at 6:30pm  at Liberty Steakhouse and Brewery.  We hope to see you there!
