Take a leaf out of Colins, SubSubs and ATs book, why not start your brew after tea, it's not like you to have an early night
The thought of coming downstairs the following morning to all that cleaning up just doesn't appeal to me
Seriously though, my neighbours a postie and he gets up for work at 3am.
Our walls are paper thin and my cursing would probably keep him awake

...me of little faith

I could be wrong but i think that was the brain child of Wez

although I doubt anyone person has the monopoly on brewing in the evening so apologies to anyone else I have missed out

Whoo there big fella, i was just pointing out that if my memory serves me correctly it was Wez who started the current evening brew trend on the forum. At least it was him i got the idea off. No need for words like monopoly

Blimey, 3 pages in and the boiler isn't even on yet

That is one tasty looking set-up though, hope it goes well tomorrow

All is go for tomorrow
Really really looking forward to this brew...it's been too long coming
Fly sparge or batch sparge
Just noticed the initial picture of the brewery, the mash tuns up ended to allow the replacement foam to dry off

Good luck with the brew and your new brewporn V, I hope there's no haze in store for you. As to the previous quotes about late brewing it was Wez who mentioned it on the forum first. I have always brewed later in the evening due to tending animals in the morning and working 2-10/10-6 revolving shifts so I'm kind of a night owl anyway. I don't mind cleaning up in the morning as most of the spent grain gets spread amongst the chickens, pigs and cattle. They'll be happier when I start brewing barley wine or 10g brews
