First brew day

[davidabcd]

One extra note on the glass carboys; just dropping a full one will cause it to explode. A quick search on this site or google will reveal the potentially gruesome results.
I dropped a glass one on my first brew day many moons ago and sliced my leg open to the bone with a flying chunk of glass.
They're heavy and dangerous.
After that I switched to PET carboys and never looked back; been brewing excellent beer for many years with them!

I used the glass twice, I think, but now only do the plastic bucket. My carboy sits there looking pretty but has gone unused.

Reading and seeing pics is why I went straight to plastic BMB because I have been known to slip and drop things.
