I think whats important is to keep notes on what you put into each batch and ferment. Temps etc. that way you learn from what you have done and can make changes where you see fit.

So many good tips!!! My other half and I are just getting everything ready to start making our own! We are going to convert our old tucker box freezer in to a keg holder with taps etc! A friend of ours did it and it looks amazing and works well!!!

I have done that several times for customers who wanted a "plug & play" type bar. I just built a wooden pine-slat frame around the freezer with a nice wooden top. You couldn't even tell it was a freezer underneath. Thermostat in the freezer to keep the temps at 1 - 2 °C, then a font out the top. The lid still opened like a regular tuckerbox, but everything was nicely hidden away beneath the wooden outer shell. I did similar with corrugated iron for a real "outback" feel once as well.

I think the important thing is to experiment with hops /fermentables and wierd additives ( chillies ) and keep notes so you know whats good and what isnt
