Quote from: "fakr"so are you brewing today Senior?


Not yet, but hopefully this afternoon.
I started the day keg washing like a madman and discovered about a dozen kegs that needed doing, then emptied the infected barrel in preparation to move the cooler to the brewroom...still not caught up, if not this afternoon, bright and early tomorrow...hey maybe double batch time! Why not start out with a REAL BANG...40 Gallons in one day!

So the wiring is all done now so I have remoted the 3 plugs on the EBC over to the wall so that there aren't any extension cords running for the pumps or heat controller.

It's pretty much done, a little caulking to tidy it up, and that's it.

About to post videos of the Hoppy Porter in the Brewhemoth...

Beautiful stuff. And I think very affordable considering the size of it as well. Nice.
