I have been brewing about 10 years now and thought I have made just about every mistake possible, up until now. Forgot to close the valve on my SS fermtank, 5 gallons of Blind Pig down the drain, literally. DOH!

When I read the title I thought, "Oh, no!  He died!"  Thank goodness it was only beer.

I hate to bring the bad news - it won't be the last brewing mistake you'll ever make, but it's pretty likely the last time you'll ever do THAT   .   Sorry to hear it, that really sucks ( especially on a Blind Pig clone). I've made some pretty good bonehead maneuvers over the years myself. I agree with Jeffy, glad you're not dead.

Like my mom has always said, "Bet you won't do THAT again!".

Most of the time she's right.

Yep     My Mom, too.

That sucks but glad you're fine and it was just beer.........

Mom was pretty smart. She tried to raise me better, but her pleading I denied.

I brew it again this Sunday and this time I remembered to close the valve. Fermentation started within 12 hours, so I'd say it was a much better brew day.
