Tonight around 12:30am I found out something very important while pitching yeast. I decided to try out a 5 gallon bucket mixer to aireate(?) my wort. Awesome idea, it gets a ton of little bubbles into the wort, except for one minor issue.... If you have a variable speed drill, make sure it's on the low speed setting. I didn't and ended up with wort all over the damn place. Thankfully my 11 month old isn't sleeping at night, and I had to take the bucket out on my driveway, a little risky? Hell yeah, but waking a sleeping child is worse than losing some wort to wild yeast. So, moral of the story... look at your drill before pulling the trigger, oh yeah, and don't hit the sides of the bucket, it'll scratch it all to hell.
