Bill's what? Letter? Hat? Fan fiction?
How do you know it was Bill's, and not Bob or Dave's?
Beer gun arrived - can bottle from keg now (well, once I get CO2 that is)

Nice! I've been curious how these differ from actual Blichmann Beer Guns. I hear that you don't have to lower the pressure on these Last Straw bottle fillers, but I personally don't ever lower my pressure when using my Blichmann (my serving pressure is only 8psi, so maybe that's why). I really do like how the beer line is threaded. I've asked Blichmann about whether they will offer a threaded beer in connection, but they said they don't see a need. I like to use a different line for sours and non-sours, so I felt a threaded connection was ideal.
Either way, enjoy! Don't forget to purge before filing!

Because if it was Bob's or Dave's Id just ignore them and Bill would not come after me.

GrainToGlass can you show a pick on how you have the thermometers and ball valves connected to the chiller? I just got one and would like to do something similar. Thanks
Looks like Ts with npt thermometers from brewhardware.com

And your choice of a ball-valve and thermometer. I went with SS Brewtech's thermometers because of the wider temp range and it matches the rest of my SS Brewtech equipment. The thermometer is a 2.5" probe, but with the length of the chiller's arms I'm sure a 6" probe will fit without a problem.

Got a pump and some camlocks yesterday. Can't wait to start using these for whirlpooling and chilling.
A 50 lb. "sample" pail of a new candi syrup and 20 or so lb. of hops samples.

An OBK box on the porch full of 24 PET bottles and 144 re usable bottle caps (my mates keep thinking they're trash)
700 gph pond pump
A new bottling bucket w/ lid and spigot, a bunch of grain, hops, 6 different packages of yeast - champagne yeast, T-58, BRY-97, Wyeast 3711, and a BugFarm (not pictured).
All because I needed to order a hydrometer. :rockin:

1kg of E. Guittard 61% chocolate wafers, to try my hand at homemade chocolate-covered bacon.
This is real chocolate you have to temper, not the usual store grade melting wafers that are chock full of partially hydrogenated oil.

A second Raspberry Pi 3. Damn you MCM electronics. You said you'd cancel any web order that went through when I called you. I am still such a geek.
Call em back. They may let you keep it.

I'm sure they charged me for it. I'm an engineer.. I have plenty of offers here at work to buy it at my cost...

I am actually meaning that if you contact them it may be more worth it to refund your money and let you keep it then pay for shipping back. They should have it recorded that you called and requested the cancellation. Couldnt hurt at least.
Great deal at Keystone Homebrew on these bottles. I'm pretty sure this is same bottle Russian River uses for IPAs like Pliny and Blind Pig and Maine Brewing uses for most of their beers.
16oz ~ 500mL is enough to share and not too much to drink myself.
