Started a little "Dunkel Vee" tonight. This batch was smooth sailing all the way through. The smack pack rose nicely, the brewing process went well and the ice bath dropped it to 90F in 30 minutes. So it was a bit of a shock when I pushed the rubber grommet through the lid. Thanks to Merry and some ingenuity, we replaced the lid with the one from #3 (which is going to be bottled this week and is done fermenting) and just left the grommet in the wort because we didn't have anything long enough to get it out, plus I had already pitched. However, it is bubbling away in the brew room so it must be okay for now.
