I hope you dont mind ;).

But there are not a lot of dutch brewers that also post on forums. There are some slow dutch forums that are not nice to post on and the irisch, brittisch and scottisch forums are a lot bigger and a lot more knowledge on homebrewing.

And like to share my brewing projects and idea`s  :)

when reading the Hitchiker's guide all those years ago the Babel fish seemed so rediculous but right.
Now all we need is a hearing aid linked to google translate and it would be a reality!

btw.. how do you patent something??

i am not that known in leiden.. was born and raised in schiedam famous for ketel 1 the gin and wodka. And living in the north for about 7 years now..

and if I have any questions will ask here :) but making turbo cider and WOW wines for a year now and just got started with some beers from kits and that is going quite well now..

Would like to start with real beer brewing but dont realy have the space and money for it now.. But got some people into wine and beer making now so maybe we can do some brews together in the future..
