Pizza is stupid cheap to make at home. Domino’s is currently offering Minecraft pizzas that are less than twice the size for more than twice the cost. But making it at home means no grease soaked collectable box.

Cost per person before toppings: $2.77 It is very hard to fit even a dollar worth of toppings on a pizza.

    Love making pizza at home. I think I “invented” my own crust with different flours + used beer grains (make my own beer at home) and folding techniques. I’m in NY and people as me how good NY pizza is……I prefer mine. Also I get to add as much toppings as I want and I like it eXXXXtra crispy ;)

      I have made my share of spent grain goods. I had to stop brewing because it just got too expensive for even basic supplies. I used to be able to make 5 gallons of pretty much any high end beer for less than a dollar a bottle. But at the same time beers started costing $12 a four pack the cost of supplies just didn’t make sense anymore.

      I still keep an eye out for fermentables that are too cheap to ignore and try to squeeze a small batch wine out of it if I can. But my beer days are probably gone.

        I feel ya! I quit brewing when my wife got diagnosed with Celiac. It just didn’t seem right.

          Time to check on vinting. You probably have almost all the supplies except maybe a press for cider, some pectic enzyme, tannin and citric of malic acid. The press is only real investment.

        I hear ya. I’ve been slowly doing it as much. At this point I get beer kits as a gift and that’s pretty much what I do now once a season. What are you go to beer recipes?

          Anything from Brewing Classic Styles by Jamil Zainasheff is a winner.

          Almost everything else was a one off or I kept changing bit after bit and never settled on a final form.
