Logo, T-Shirts, Etc...

Who is it that has the Logo, and is it done now? I.E. does te pig have another leg and such? I'm planning on going to the Chilli and Brew Fest in Snowmass, and it would be great to have some info to put out about the club. Maybe we could attract some other people that might not have heard about us yet. It would also be nice to have things to take to the AHA Conference as well, and that's coming up pretty quickly. Anyone able to scan the logo in and make it usable? Can anyone make business cards that we can put contact info on? Who's interested in getting T-shirts made? Post up some ideas and/or e-mail everyone and we'll go from there.

Accident at New Belgium

Anyone else hear about this? Apparently this guy is in critical condition after getting buried in malt at New Belgium yesterday. On the news last night they said that people found him with just his hand and forearm sticking out of a pile of malt. I guess he was the truck driver that was unloading a truck full of malt and somehow he fell in and got dumped out through the bottom of the truck with the malt.

New Mash Tun Manifold

I was at Lowes the other day and got a wild hair to build a new Manifold for my Mash Tun. CPVC is so cheap, I decided to go for it. Last brew day (Big Brew) I was disappointed in my efficiency, and apparently left quite a bit of sweet wort in the Tun. I measured the dead space with the new manifold and only have about 2 cups left over. I was going to try to thread the old Stainless Steel mesh over the pipe, but it wouldnt quite fit.

Here are some pics:
