well just a quick update... got the new ball-valve and pickup tube. filled and heated to boiling. NO LEAKS!!! YEEHAR!!!
A health hiccup in the family has made me stop operations for a little bit (dont be worried, after what i went through last year, this is nothing... but i would look like an ASSH*LE if i was to go on my way and start AG'ing)
Thinking of sticking a couple of electric elements and a mashmaster in in now instead of relying on gas for mashing/boiling. Cant think of the users name but the idea came from a post that was on here a week or so ago. So i mite be off to Big W 2morrow morn and start looking at some kettles......
As for the grain, hops and yeasties: they were ordered a couple of weeks back and are now in my hot little hands.
just thought i'd give u guys an update on whats going on just incase you thought i'd abandoned this thread.
