Robin Aitken
Wellington homebrewer getting started on his own all-grain setup, with earlier experience from a 40L all-grain brewing class — the same starting point as Owen and Matt. Brews on a 35L BrewZilla Gen 4, ferments in a bucket with no temperature control yet (managed by relocating the fermenter), and bottle conditions in flip-top bottles. Not all of Robin's brews are recorded here — the stats and totals on this page reflect only the batches added to the site.
