15 minutes into a 90 minute boil for the Flying Dog brew kit. The hot break was like thick cream. I had a little trouble with the mash, getting an extra 1.5 gallons. Details on that later.

My brewery would… I actually like my job, a lot of that is I really like my staff. Plus, a lot...

Thanks everyone for the nice thoughts for Billy. He’s my best friend other than Janice. I’ve always done right by him, and I’ll continue to do so no matter what I have to do.
