Brewing the Capitals Belgian recipe tomorrow for a last minute addition to the barrel. Everyone is more than welcome to pile round and I'll be sticking on a Sunday roast also. Belgian brown on tap with bottles of PH Celebration from a couple of years ago in the fridge. Kicking off at 9 for the day and again, all welcome!
I'm in Thurles now by the way!
Forgot to mention, I'll be stripping 6 beer engines down to their knickers, servicing, repairing if necessary and putting back together also.
I'll be there around 9 :30 ish. Looking forward to seeing the guts of a beer engine.
Best of luck lads

Ahh! I nice blanky to keep it all snuggly! I do that too! Hopbomb suggests injecting the lid with expandable foam insulation!
I have a can of foam which I need to inject in my cooler.
I probably need about 2litres in total but hate leaving the other 42litres in the can.
