Good morning. I was brewing beer with my father yesterday afternoon when some serious wind picked up. It did rain for a bit, but not for long. No hail for us and the wind was way worse than the rain.

Yesterday was an IPA. A couple of weeks ago it was a Belgian. We try to brew something sort of seasonal.

Good morning guys.
I had some hard rain last night for about a half hour.

I was trying to fix the gas gauge on my tractor last night.
I put in a new fuel pump/sending unit and it still does not work.
Now I will have to try and trace the wires.

Have you tried testing the gauge itself Andy?

IPA's and Belgian's, two of my favorites.
I don't know enough of the variables (boil, yeast, etc...) to make any comment about the craft/art, but I do enjoy the results.

We buy kits that take all the guess work out, just have to be able to follow directions. Have a looks at NortherBrewer, that is where we get the bulk of our supplies from.

I have not because it is in a sealed dash with the temp, fuel, and all the indicator lights. Almost like a car.
I might just add a fuel gauge in a mounting cup.

Good morning everyone!

Enjoyed driving through the storm last night on the way home! I'm surprised how much rain we get up here, the upper midwest was a bit dryer this time of year.

This is way above average, I don't remember getting this much rain before. At least not in such a short span
