I had 5 gallons of water in the pot. Discussing this with a friend of mine he thinks it might be because the pot I used (an enameled canning pot) didn't have a flat bottom.

Oh well, live and learn. I just thought I should post the picture and story as a warning to for others.  :D

Very cool. You can just start selling pieces of aluminum that you've melted as brewing art.

I'll take a picture tonight. I should have saved the molten bits that I scraped off the cinder blocks. Parts of it were so thin that it was like aluminum foil.

Carl, who would say is Voyager's equivalent of Kirk? We're pretty good into season six now and I'm thinking Janeway takes the cake on that one.
