I also upgraded my grain mill. . .
And got a TV (an old one) for my brewery.

I like them. They never stick, and even though they should be easy to clean, I've never had to.

Nice kids.
I do have a safety complaint though. In pic #2 the little one was too close to the boiling wort/pot.
I know there's a million things going on, but just try to be a little bit more careful next time.  
Oh, another pic came up too with the boy. Same situation. All they have to do is lose balance and reach out for something to grab...it'll be that hot pot.
Sorry, I just had to comment.

Yeah, I'm normally holding onto them when they are putting in the hops. Momentary lapse in judgement for a picture's sake.
I'll never complain when someone brings up something about safety.

On another note: Now that everyone has seen my setup--- I was thinking of painting the surface of my bench there with a glossy paint of some sort to decrease the permeability of it.
Any ideas on colors?? I was thinking Grey, possibly white. I'm concerned about heat reflection, etc. I think painting it would look nicer, and would be more sanitary.
