It is refreshing to learn that these little mishaps can happen to brewers of all levels... Good luck with your preparations for the big opening!

Got 2.5 batches into fermenters last week. If you're wondering what's up with the half batch, it wasn't intentional. Had a door begin leaking fairly quickly from the top--looks like the hinge is bent. Of course, I thought I might be able to reposition it with the level well over the door--suffice it to say that hydrostatic pressure makes a mess out of your clothes in a hurry. I'm of the opionion that there is something unnatural about all karaoke.
