Re: busted for not paying road taxes on biofuels?

   Hey Matthew or some home brewer that is wanting to help someone else
   getting set up I need some instruction. My plans are to be able to
   get 100 gallon batches going, but not having seen the site or even
   seen a batch made I am in the dark. Is there someone that is willing
   to spend a little time with a beginner and show him/her the ropes to
   not making errors that have been made in the process by beginners?
   Drop me a line when available. Thanks, Nick
