Thanks

Last weekend (Saturday) I brewed up a couple batches, one IPA, and a Heffeweizen, both are fermenting at the moment. I should have started brewing a while back for a party I have coming up on October 13th, but procrastinated. Basically my beer will have 3 total weeks from starting fermentation...

I did this, it didnt make much of a difference. :(

Congrats, time to start that second batch ;)

LOL, thanks. I use it mainly to hold the tubes in place, but I screwed up drilling my stopper, so the duct tape is on there too. :D
