Advice pt. 6: Stash your sleeping bag in the garage or the dual purpose of sleeping in it (in cases of relationship emergencies) and keeping your mash tun nice and warm.

Im really going to show my ignorance here , but having tried a google, I’m going to have to ask the question.

Can someone point me to a guide even more basic? Im finding it a little overwhelming as the basics are all new to me! Like what the hell is a mashtun :wha: ? And AG means what :? ?

Cheers Craig
