Confucius
It is hard to believe I am in my sixth week as a brewing intern at Deschutes Brewery. Six weeks down, six to go. This week I finish up on day shift 6:00 AM to 2:30 PM. Next week I begin swing shift 2:00 PM to 10:30 PM.
Video of my first six weeks:
Here are a few lessons I have learned thus far as a brewing intern:
1. If a tank does not pressurize, look for missing pieces or crank the door tighter. Ugh!
2. Remember the racking arm.
3. Carhartts are cool!
4. Getting a boot in the brewing door is tough. Never give up.
So six weeks down, six to go and then what? Great question! I don't have the answer quite yet. I am still waiting for the day I find out my why.
