I have the HLT's full of water and ready to turn on at 2:00.  That way when I got home, they will be ready to go.

So I want to brew a "Klingon" ale.  Start with my Right Rye Red recipe and bulk up the grains to make it 8% ABV then add in caraway and black peppercorns.  I think that's today's brew.

Bought a couple of temperature controllers off of E-Bay to make temp probes for the HLT's.  Keeping a constant temperature is critical in brewing and until I have the controllers installed, it's a manual job.  Which is fine, just not as exact.
