Literally laughing out loud.
There is a loop hole in the 18-batch, or anyone's "limitations" in the form of two batches a day. I've done it with a brew bud in about 8 hours. That's a long day but hey, I sit in an office pretending to work "some" days while covertly surfing my favorite brew sites.
Oh yeah, what do you do when your wife hates anything hoppy?
She does like sour Belgians however. Still up for a swap?
