Welcome! Even though I was never at MrBeerFans, your story is familiar. Many of us went through a similar experience at the Mrbeer Forum. BeerBorg is a nice friendly little home.

no more little brown keg even for AG.
Finally stepped up to a pickle bucket, glass bottles :o ( no more Dew PETS) Stainless wort chiller ( how did I do 30 batches of beer without one)
Wow I guess there is hope for me after all :D
How did you get all the pickle flavor/smell out of the bucket?
