Category: something fun

The last week of my photo a day project using work as an inspiration. It’s been good, and helped kick me out a slump.

Jan 23: this is mine. Goggles and gloves. #ppe #safetyfirst #brewerlife #fmspad

Jan 24: what I do. I tend this brewhouse and go up and down those 4 steps what feels like a few hundred times a day. #brewerlife #brewhouse #stainlesssteel #shiny #fmspad

Jan 25: in the background. The background noise of bottling day is filled with clanks, clatters, whirring and the occasional crash #brewerlife #bottlingday #noisyaf #wearyourearplugs #fmspad

Jan 31: something colourful. The chemical hazard chart is the most colourful thing here. #ppe #brewerlife #fmspad

I’ve done a photo-a-day on my other blog for 6 years. If you think that after 6 years the inspiration would be flagging a little, you’d be right.

I sometimes use the prompts from Fat Mum Slim as a way to get through the doldrums, and this month I combined her prompts with brewing.

Jan 16: music. It's a very discordant song when all three pumps are going – two high pitched fluctuating whines and some cavitation for percussion. #work #brewerlife #fmspad #fms_music

Jan 17: bag. Bags of specialty malt as far as the eye can see. #brewerlife #fmspad #fms_bag

Jan 19: shape. There is really only one shape on bottling day. #brewerlife #fmspad #fms_shape

Jan 20: something white. Inspecting bottles against a bank of white leds. Not sure if I'm Shirley or Laverne today. #brewerlife #bottlingday #beer #fmspad #fms_somethingwhitw

Jan 21: grow. Trying to coax expired @escarpmentlabs Wild Thing yeast to grow. #beer #homebrew #brewerlife #fmspad #fms_grow #thingsfoundwhencleaningthefridge
