Someone mentioned having a collection for concentrates for the group. If we actually have an abundance of concentrates, we could look into a small collection for 5ml dripper bottles as they can be cleaned and used at every event.
We would love to have @Silver at one of our meets :), I would like to post a summary and insight of our meets on the forum to show others what we do and share the knowledge gained and give a bit of insight to those considering the DIY way. One of the main reasons I wanted to start this thread is...
