Well, another day of canning down the drain. I got a call from the boss early this morning telling me that a co2 line burst during the night and that we could not can today because the resevoir was empty. I had never thought of this, but he said to me later in the day that there was about 2 inches of ice around the fittings where it leaked out! So now we have to wait till everything melts, sterelize the lines, fix them and then me might be able to start canning-Monday we will try again. So what does a brewer do when his day gets ruined like this, and all the fermenters are full, he cleans. So I spent the entire day scrubbing and shinning equipement as well as inspecting and cleaning the brewing line and hoses. At least, at the end of a day like this, I am surounded by the best antedote for a hard days work-beer. Ah yes, a nice cold brew, it tastes so good at the end of the day. So relax and have a microbrew!
Cheers
