Looks like you had a good un.

I'm envious of the temperature controlled fermenter in this weather.

i'll ask some dumb questions...

if you were pumping batch one to the boiler, where was the water coming from for batch 2?

i also notice that your letting the wort drop into the bucket when running off - i thought this you were supposed to protect from the air at this point?

i'm still learning

I've figured why make work for myself, it's not going to be a keeping beer and i've aerated the wort at this stage in the past without any problems.

Cool. It's been said that a great design is not when you can't add anything more, but when you can't take anything else away. That also applies to brewing i guess.

Nice one DaaB, I love the 100g of Goldings in at 15 minutes, I bet that will taste great.
