I just had a little incident. I just finished racking a nice porter from primary to secondary. I cleaned up my mess and installed the airlock with some leftover One Step solution. I still had wet hands but still decided to carry the carboy full of beer to the cellar, where I do my secondary fermentation. I got across the basement and realized the door was shut. Instead of setting it down, opening the door and picking it back up, I rested it on my knee. I had my, still wet, right hand around the neck, and my left knee mostly under the left side. Then it happened, as I reached for the doorknob with my left hand it slipped off my knee. Instantly, with all my might, I tried to hold on with my right slimy hand. The neck of the carboy slipped out slicker than crap. However, instead of a loud crash and tidal wave of 5 gallons of dark brown porter heading for the floor drain. It hit with a dull thud???
I have never been so happy for a dirty smelly kitty litter box in my life!!!!
Yes, the carboy had displaced about a pound of litter all over the floor and into my left shoe, but it saved the carboy and more importantly my porter! I am one lucky, happy guy!!!
