Don't be in a rush

Post by teutonic terror »

While brewing my smoked porter yesterday, I was tying the spoon to the handle
of the brewpot with a piece of wire, to sanitize it.
I pushed down on the wire, and the spoon flipped up, throwing boiling
wort onto my chin, t-shirt and both forearms. Hyshhh! :o

Needless to say when I took a shower a while ago, it's almost like
being sunburned in those three spots.

Advice, don't be in a rush, because, damn that hurts! :redface:

Sorry you scalded yourself.

But I often find that I have to remind myself, "Less haste; more speed."

Always gotta be careful of the everyday stuff that can be dangerous.
I got a fairly large second degree burn from a hot oven door that decided to flip closed.

Glad to hear that the injuries were a lot less than they could have been.

Stay safe my friends!
