-== London Hackspace Brewing ==
-A successful inaugural brewing session was held at the new Hackspace on the [[2013_August_Open_Day]].
+London Hackspace has an active homebrewing subgroup. We have a shared full-mash gas-fired brewing setup which is capable of a brew length of about 80 litres, as well as a CO2 keg dispense system. Anyone can participate, even if you've had no experience before, there's always cleaning to be done. :)
+Since our brewing equipment is gas-fired and the space isn't well suited to the steam produced, we brew outside on the loading dock. This is more pleasant in the summer than in the winter.
 Brewing as a "project" is being driven by [[User:Detonate|Det]], helped by [[User:Ross|Ross]], overseen by [[User:Russ|Russ]] with equipment borrowed from [[User:B3cft|B3cft]].

+== Get in touch ==
+A public [https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/london-hackspace-brewing Google sub-group] exists for planning brewdays, discussing recipes and the like. Other topics that affect the Space as a whole should be done on the main mailing list.

-== Location: ==
-Brewing will take place outside on or in front of the loading dock for various reasons, namely ventilation and easy access to running water.
-As there's no fixed hose fitting that we've found, we'll be clamping a hose on to the bathroom tap just inside the roller door.  This is used for the immersion chiller whilst cooling the wort.  Thankfully there's also a drain below the loading dock.
