First brew day of 2012

I finally brewed for the first time this year on Monday, April 23rd. I brewed a hefeweizen using a 65-35 wheat, barley blend DME for my base. I am fermenting with a Bavarian wheat style yeast. While I haven't been brewing this year, I have been working on the brewery. I now have three burners installed and propane connected to all. I am currently adding some fittings to my newest ketle for a sight gauge, ball valve, and thermometer. On a side note, I tried out some silicone tubing for my blow off tube on the hefe fermentation. I really like it and am planning to gradually change to silicone tube throughout the brewery.
