HaHaHa What a classic !! You are very lucky... Cheers mate! Wardos

Thanks guys, I am convinced I will be getting another vessel for the secondary, I can't wait to do another brew to see the difference in terms of beer clarity and possibly different taste with the wort not sitting on the trub for longer periods of time. I bet the wife will be spewing, another...
