Re: Calculating Rate of Return, when Buying.......

Names are changed to protect the perps. But in logging country - long ago and far far away.
At age 14, me and Schroeder, borrowed some his dad's 'good' homebrew yeast and got rest from the Safeway home brew section, whipped up a beautiful ten case batch and started aging it in the rafters of their upper garden shed.
One saturday, we were helping his older brother in the lower garage on his 52 ford hot rod?? when a muffled explosion/s went off and his dad came running in a low crouch yelling about those #^&* deer hunters. When he looked out of the garage for the direction of the shot and saw the beer foam running down the shed wall - he just looked at Schroeder and said there WILL BE a shed inspection before church tomorrow. Took us four hours to clean up the mess.
ROI lost that day, skunky isn't always age related. Blew up a few more batches over the years, but improved with practice. Last great batch was 1987 with Danish malt from Bierhouse International - my SO said I stunk up the house and 'hadn't I noticed that I was the only one who drank it?' The ROI was great --BUT
If dryer sheet recyling doesn't give enough ROI - homebrew as a fallback position?
