Work was slow so I cut out early to brew. I've had an electric HLT for a while but I just upgraded the power to the brewshop and had my boil control ready to go.
So I mashed in with a propane BK. During the mash, I punched a hole in the BK, soldered in a 1in half coupling, installed the element, leak tested while wiring the element and made the final connections in the controller...all in time to mash out. I still pulled off a 5 hour brewday...patting self on back.
I was 5 points high on the Mild though...not a perfect day;(
Here's some pics:
