(But I won’t get to play with it for a month or two. Sigh…)
Bryan S. was having problems with his 12.2 gallon cylindroconical fermenter. Apparently there was a leak he couldn’t fix. He offered to sell it for $200 and I jumped on it.
Later that evening (the homebrew club meeting was at his house) I felt guilty and I offered to fix his leak for free. (I have so many stainless steel fittings that I am like the ambassador for SS-tania…)
But, he was adamant. (And I later found out he was looking to buy a Beer, Beer & More Beer version and had to sell his existing equipment to free up the cash…) No problem, Bryan!
Since I can’t fit this into the glassware closet (where I ferment ales in carboys), I think I’ll dress up the outside of the frame that Bryan built so it looks good in plain sight. Make it all purdy… (Of course, Donna walked past it several times last week and didn’t notice it at all. Maybe it doesn’t matter what it looks like…)
Since I’m going to be traveling 75% of March and April, I think I won’t push too hard to brew again until May. (It’s not like I’m running out of homebrew…) Gotta maintain marital harmony, of course!
(But, I can’t wait to try it out!!)
