I've heard about those homebrew kits. The problem is that we're talking
about the occasional explosion, right? Like, I've got my attic I could use,
but it gets hotter than hell up there in the summer. And I've got my little
aluminum shed outside, but that's filled with tires, skis, dog food, and all
kinds of gardening crap my wife digs out every summer so she can torture
whatever poor plant she plans on planting with a lack of water. She planted
strawberries in december and I'm like "doesn't it start snowing and freezing
in a week or two?"

The strawberry patch is currently hidden under about a foot of snow right
now...
