Overview

What is the Food Hacking Base? Well it is an independent project focusing on food, drink and bio activities happening at main hacker events since CCC camp 2011 in Finowfurt. The project is run by enthusiast who love to play with variety of digestibles, welcoming new people who wants to come and run the show together, trying to be excellent to each other. As a group we will set up a well organized experimental kitchen, workshop venues, presentation desk and other needed facilities creating food, drink and bio hub sharing the knowledge and experience. It is an open platform focusing on experimental and educational so you can join variety of interesting activities ranging from entry friendly tasting events like our famous "Cheese Rendezvous" or bit more educational and practical workshops like "Kombucha is Easy", Beef Jerky Marking, to really specific projects like "Experimental Incubator Build Up", Probiotic Drinks Everywhere et cetera. The schedule will be packed with events, therefore many reasons for you to visit us. For all of this and more we need people who make it happen, who tell others what is it about, spreading the word and of course we need you to contribute also financially. Some of us have more time but less money and for some it is the other way around. It is up to you to consider your particular situation and your preferred form of supporting this project, we appreciate it all, just lets make it happen!
