I'm stuck in Afghan the Trashcan for the next few months and I'm trying to plan my new system and had some questions. I'm currently running a turkey frier HLT and 10gal cooler w/ RIMS and plan on buying some Update International kettles for a BK and HLT and converting my keggle into a MT with...

I made 5 gal of AHS's wit on 3 January with a massive starter (fresh smack pack stepped up twice). I had an insane ferm for three days @ 60-65 degrees with a blowoff tube. I thought it was safe to put an airolck on it on day 4, only to have to clean it out two days in a row. Now, 2 weeks later...
