I loaded up an old Dell P3 computer of mine with Debian Linux

And out the brewery blog on it!  It should be much faster now!  Took some time to figure out Apache’s reverse proxy modules – so that I could put both the brewpi fermentation controller and the web server all on one external IP address – but it works!

If you want to do something like this yourself, find an old computer and load Debian Wheezy on it.  Make yourself a LAMP server by following these directions.

Install your favorite CMS or blogging scripts – or just create your own web page and the main server.
