Bloodshed

So, today my new hobby finally drew blood. While attempting to remove a piece of plastic tubing from the racking cane of my auto-siphon, I broke the cane and cut my finger. Not a major injury, but it makes me feel more complete as a brewer.

Other than that, I bottled Blackacre IPA (finished at 1.006 - 6% ABV) and racked Bar-None Brown to the secondary. It has achieved 1.010 so far, but I don't expect it to attenuate any further at this point.

Tomorrow I need to brew, because I crushed the grain for this batch almost two weeks ago. Has it all oxidized and started to turn? I guess we'll find out.
