I was anxious to 'get back on that horse' so to speak after I burnt a batch a few days ago and had to dump it. So I kicked out a Vanilla Porter today... went well, no unpleasant surprises, decent efficiency (80%) and is fermenting after 4 hours. Nice.
Here's some pics for those of you who brew in cramped apartments to relate to...
1. Protein rest. The towels work to keep the temp stable. Lauter water in pot next to it.
2. Mixin' the mash... love the paddle! It doubles for some interesting activities in the bedroom with SWMBO. Just jivin' ;-)
3. The brewery. (Note luxurious view).
4. Lautering away. It ain't no fancy HERMS set up, but it does the job!
