Beer Christmas


My wonderful wife did a great job on Christmas presents this year.

She got me a Bayou Classic turkey fryer. I've wanted one for turkeys, but the burner is perfect for brewing beer. Much easier to get 6.5 gallons of wort boiling on it than on an electric burner.
If you get one of these, just make sure you don't use the included pot for brewing, it's aluminum and may leave nasty flavors in your beer.

She also got me a subscription to Brew Your Own Magazine, and a copy of Brew Like a Monk by Stan Hieronymus.

Way to go, honey, love you.
