I was really wanting to brew this weekend, but I didn't get motivated to go to the brew store yesterday so I will have to just do some drinking instead.
 
For the 1st time I am trying the wet tee shirt with fan method of keeping the temp of the primary fermeter at a steady 68 degrees and it is actually working.
 
I guess it could always be worse though right?

Guess I was right - it got worse. After giving it the recommended amount of oil I tested the pump before starting and it was working. When the time came to sparge it refused to dance. Tried sweet-talking it and made a few hollow promises but to no avail. It absolutely refused to do the tango. Oh well, I'm only out the price of the grain - and a new pump. I'll be giving it's successor much more attention.
