Yeah, the one on the right was already in place. My wife said to me today, "Hey, do you want to go and help me pick the kids up from school?". I said, "sure", and before you know it, we're pulling into the LHBS, and she walks in, and says to the guy, "I'm here to pick up a package, and out he walks with the conical (in a cardboard box)." BTW, it was cheaper and faster than Northern Brewer, or anywhere else online.

I was shocked.

I'm so lucky to have a LHBS and a wife like that.

I guess she got sick of me complaining when I had to revert to glass when the conical was full.

I'm fortunate, that's for sure.

well, we all have our compensatory mechanisms. . .

Now then. . I'm thinking of fitting a pelt mechanism to one of these puppies for a controlled temp conical. . . .
