The beer smell is great (like visiting Anchor Steam only you get to hang out with your dog), but there is a lot of pots and jugs that seems to multiply and never get put away. Kegging is definitely better than bottling, but watch the Stuff Creep. Also, you may want to have a prenup-style discussion with The Wife on your feeling of installing a kegarator in the kitchin. JUST SAYING. I have it on good authority that distillery and wine-making is much easier.<br /><br />But overall it is awesome. And when in doubt, relax. Have a homebrew.
