got home from work today and went to take a shower. My downstairs bathroom smelled like beer, and it was running down the wall of the shower. went upstairs to the closet where Mr. Beer has been sitting, and find that the gasket around the tap is leaking, and has lost about 1/3 of the batch. One thing about it the beer sure stripped the finish off my wood floor in the closet. It had been fermenting for 9 days. I went ahead and bottled the remainder this evening and put the bottles in the pantry in the basement. I had been planning to let it stay in the fermenter until next weekend but we'll see how it turns out.
