First All Grain Batch This Weekend

Well I have finally got everything I need to make the jump to all grain.  Plan on doing that this weekend with a buddy of mine.  Got the grains and yeast delivered today.  We are doing the Sierra Madre kit from Northern Brewer.  Supposed to be a clone of Sierra Nevada.  Really wanted to do an IPA, but figured I would do a Pale Ale as the wife would be more inclined to drink this over an IPA.  Hoping to start brewing around 10:00AM in order to try and be done in time to go to an anniversary party.  I guess if I don't get done in time I don't get to go.  Oh well.  Will let you know how the weekend goes.  Maybe even some pictures of how the day goes.
