Well just got done with the pilot batch,and things went pretty good.Did a multi step decoction mash to hopefully convert the unmodified feed barley ,and ended with a OG of 1.065 gravity! The wood and garbage fire brought the wort to a boil in under an hour.Using the urine technique for sanitization of the equipment worked great!Using the old junkers fuel lines was a little slow(3/8th inch for 100 gallons),but it worked.The old junkers radiator cooled the wort down to 80 degrees in about 2 hours(a little slow).Filled two of them oil barrels up to the rim and pitched a whole jar of red star yeast in each.Fermentation took right off with a nice layer of lime green foam at the top.I'm gonna keg the beer up next weekend in some of those junker gas tanks that have been sanitized using the urine technique found on this forum.I have a couple local business interested in serving my brew!!I've decided on a name for the brewry-Prestige Brewing-Kinda got a ring to it huh?I'll be havin a barrel tasting later this week if anyone wants to come out-PM me for more details.

Sounds kind of gross for various reasons... Picture it... "Here have one of my beers that was mashed in a hot tub that I had my ass in."
