Homebrewing counts as "Arts & Crafts"?

Lupercal:
A beer kit costs £50? I hope that's including the keg, sanitation equipment, and beer ingredients? Even then you can find them online for about £35.

I just bottled 38 pints last night of the first beer I've ever made. It was a "Canadian Blonde", and my Dad had a rather interesting idea to use golden syrup instead of sugar in the initial mixing process - it should add a subtlety to the beer that wouldn't have otherwise been there with just normal white sugar. I'm also led to believe different sugars can develop different tastes, colours, etc.

How long do people normally let their beer brew for? The instructions said only a week, but I was inclined to wait until the bubbling had completely stopped before I began bottling.

Border Reiver:
I wait til the final gravity stabilizes (same reading for two days)
