Bummer !
I have just set up my brew for tommoz. I have got timers and sh1t to start my heating before I get up, so that it has water in the HLT at temp when I get to the "brewhaus" I turn up at 0900hrs and the water is at temp to pre-heat my MT.
SWMBO brings bacon sandwich down about 0930hrs, I see her again at lunch time !
I am so lucky to have a very cool and understanding wife

I think behind every homebrewer there stands an understanding wife. Well, either that or an empty bed....

I find handing her the sums of brewing beer as opposed to buying beer helps enormously .. something to do with more shoes or something or other ..
