After almost 19 years of homebrewing, I just broke a glass carboy for
the first time ever. Fortunately, it was empty.
I just hope it's not gonna tack 7 more years onto the effect of that
mirror I broke back in 1999....
OTOH, I've got 5 gallons of Irish stout and 5 gallons of Belgian golden
ale bubbling away in their respective fermenters. How bad can my luck
be with that to look forward to?

I still have my two after about 25 years, plus a hydrometer from that
period. I did shatter my original thermometer in the sink a few years
ago, but aside from that have been rather lucky. I hope you haven't
started a trend here.

Oh, man. With all the bad luck from that broken carboy those are gonna
suck. Just bottle the Belgian and ship it to me. I'll dispose of it
properly so you won't have to suffer. ;)

Wow - original hydrometer? Seems like I have to buy a new on every
other time I go to the LHBS.

Next time, buy two. That way the first one will never get broken. I'm
convinced they'll only break if you don't have a spare handy.
