You need a bigger bucket!!
How do you mean Ullage? "Stale or infected beer that is unsaleable" I don't think you really mean ullage

Sorry, that's the truck driver in me. In haulage Ullage means the volume by which a liquid container falls short of being full, although in brewing it refers to wasteage. So yes I do mean ullage but maybe not in this context!

I also have the body of an 18 year old; if the police ever find it I'm done for!

I really do need a bigger bucket; it came over the top 5 times this morning! Each time I skimmed back to to the wort as well!
