this is pre-hot break....




i actually didn't get a hot break until i added the hops. i had a good bit of headspace in the pot, so it boiled up and fell into itself. never had to kill the heat.

once i switch that into secondary, i'm going to see if i can fit a large and small carboy in the refrigerator. if so, i'm going to try to brew the 60 minute ipa recipe in the "extreme brewing" book by sam.
