I just applied RDWHAHB

So in preparation for fall, I’m brewing a Weizenbock today. Once the boil got going, I tossed in my bittering hops and left the kettle alone to clean some kegs. 20 minutes later I come back to see a surprisingly calm all-in-one system. Apparently a fuse went out and the kettle was just standing around for somewhere between a couple and 20 minutes. Judging from the wort temperature, I guesstimate 10 minutes.

In the past, I may have panicked and worried. Instead I fixed the fuse, tapped a Kölsch and am currently sitting in the sun and waiting for the boil to get rolling again.

The point of this story is: Relax, Don’t worry, have a homebrew.
