Custom Logger in SailsJS

Below is my log.js file but it only logs "Hello from colorized winston", but it's not logging all my sails.log.info in my app. What am I doing wrong. I searched everywhere and can't figure it out. All I found is this https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/sailsjs/67u7SqzsNJQ and it seems to confirm I'm doing correctly.

var winston = require('winston'),
  Papertrail = require('winston-papertrail').Papertrail;

var logger = new winston.Logger({
  transports: [
    new Papertrail({
      host: 'logs3.papertrailapp.com',
      port: xxxxx, // my port here
      colorize: true
    })
  ]
});

logger.info('Hello from colorized winston', logger);

module.exports = {
  log: {
    custom: logger
  }
};

Any help would greatly be appreciated.

PS. I'm jumping into a project created by someone else so it's possible they broke something. If someone can give me a lead how to debug by telling me how custom works that would also be appreciated.

Make sure you've setup the correct logging level. In your config/log.js file, set the log level to something like level: silly. This should log pretty much everything.
