This is my area for taking notes and describing my journey through the process of studying this ancient discipline (as well as supporting tasks such as beer/wine for spirits).

| Sep 18 | First vineyard built - Shawn's Standard v1.20 |
| Sep 18 | Applied to Alchemists Anonymous guild |
| Sep 19 | Forge session - copper sheet/straps (plus other stuff) for alembic/assimilation bath |
| Sep 27 | Accepted into Alchemists Anonymous |
| Sep 27 | Bench session - glass jars and pipes (plus other stuff) for alembic/alchemist's bench/thermos |

| Sep 30 | Bench session - glass rods (soda) |
| Oct 14 | Mega Session Day! 4-5 hours of Master Casting Box/Student Forge/Glazier Bench for cooperage, beer kettles, alchemy/chem buildings and more |
| Oct 21 | Finally built chemistry lab (and upgraded to level 1), assimilation bath, alembic and alchemist's bench. Surprised to learn bench runs on petroleum. |
| Oct 21 | Built grain oven and grew barley for beer; need papy paper for malting trays |
| Oct 24 | Started two new vineyards - Eigam Copper and Tedra's Tannin |
| Oct 29 | Made my first small barrel |

| Dec 6 | Installed glassware and calibrated to level 3 - thanks to AmmonRa for the set! |
| Dec 10 | Started growing Eigam Bronze grapes for high sugar |
| Dec 28 | Bottled Bronze wine (#6) |
