110 brews, that's all my bag was capable of.
When I pulled my bag today it sprung a leak. I had hot wort pissing out of a pinhole and not going in the kettle. It was easily enough staunched but I will have to retire the old girl.
Got my daughters sewing machine out and ran up a new bag in between hop additions today.

hashie's bag - RIP (Ripped in Pot) 
That's a good innings hashie. What do you think caused the rip? Is the fabric any thinner? Was it near the stitching?

Thanks fellas 
It was just a pin hole and I believe it's wear from my paint stirrer mash paddle thingo. I've noticed it previously, but yesterday was the first time it leaked.
I'll keep the old bag as a spare, in case of emergency, so she might make another beer yet.
