Default A mess and a half
I ordered an extract kit from Austin. It came today and the extract pail was cracked.

That is one heck of a mess. Just nasty sticky nasty all stuck into the packing pellets. It took a while to wash it off the other items (lucky they were in sealed bags).

Yuck.



Austin sending another pail.

Yeah, Austin was nice about it.

I just have never really had a mess like that. Usually I have a small spill or smear of malt, I wipe it up with warm water and soap, problem solved.

This was a heck of a nesty mess, and I was scrubbing my hands for a while to get it out from under my nails.
