TTL with added slug!

Post by farmhousekeg » Fri Nov 20, 2009 3:21 pm

Imagine my surprise on starting my first batch sparge of my TTL this morning when THIS appeared from tap of the MT!! :shock: :shock: :shock: Image
It was quite a big boy - about an inch long in fact. Just lucky it didn't stick in the tap! I guess it must have crept in under the false bottom between brews! :lol: I'll be checking more carefully in future.

Now does anyone know what special flavour or aroma a slug will add to my TTL? :-&

I dunno but it might be quite a slow fermenter!
