    Another US-05 experiment... temperature fluctuations

    I know most of my beers run 6-10º warmer than ambient. Just made a black ipa and its in my basement holding steady at 59-60 and beer temp is sitting at 68 currently. Not much air circulation. But other beers I have done have barely warmed above ambient. I think its black magic or witchcraft...

    Feeling a little stupid

    You do not want to let the nylon grain bags catch fire

    although I hate to tell this I was moving my keggle off the burner to my beer stand and bumped bottom against leg.

    Direct Fire MLT Insulation Project

    What kind of mineral wool are you guys using. As a insulator by trade I know some of that stuff can be very nasty till its all sealed up. Looks great though.
