Now that you can't lift following your surgery, I think devising a "no lift" brewing process is needed. That youthful brawn, muscling that heavy equipment, won't Kast forever. But your desire for a good brew should.

Alright! I did see an Igloo "Cube" at Great Fermentations but didn't check the price. I think I got mine at Wal-Mart way back when. Or maybe Target. They seem to be a seasonal item.

Don,
I wanted to plumb the gas lines for my burners like you have yours, I just can't figure it out. Next time you have a open brew day, I'll come up and look your system over.
