Types of beta: You get the whole package - SPAG, structure and flow, plot holes, characterization (though this last is my weak point). I go through your story and flag anything that strikes me in any way, either good or bad. I speak American English; I can check for general consistency with British English, but can't Britpick.
Can't beta: Nothing is a priori off the table, but if I feel I can't beta your story, I'll let you know quickly.
