We have a second hand building supply store that I think will have cheap plexiglass. I would have preferred old windows but the structure has a little bit of movement so I think it needs something with more give. I suppose I could use windows on the roof, which shouldn't flex at all, but then...

I have a swing set (similar to below) that my kids have outgrown. I've already started using the 'swing' section to grow beans and cucumbers. I think I would like to enclose the 'fort' portion in plexiglass and make a little greenhouse.

I've subscribed to the Epic Gardening channel for a little over a year now. He deals with container gardening pretty extensively and has a lot of good insight. https://www.youtube.com/@epicgardening

I tried my first big beer in the Foundry and ended up a bit disappointed and puzzled. With 15 lbs of grain, BeerSmith estimated an OG of 1.085. My first runnings were 1.087, which I knew was a little low, but not terrible. I drained and collected 4.4 gallons so I poured another gallon over...

I saw my first Mustang EV in the wild on the drive to work this morning! I've yet to see a Faraday on the road, despite being 19 miles from their factory...

I couldn't afford to be an early-adopter at that point but when I graduated from college I used $3399 left over from student loans to buy a top-of-the-line Quantex with a 40 MB hdd and a Pentium processor!

I usually use my waste water in the garden but that sounds like it might drastically cut down on mineralization!

7-10 but I don't think I have ever had one last that long, between using it for cleaning, purging, and carbing, not to mention leaky connections!

6 gallon keg Stainless spunding valve Floating dip tube For pressure fermentation and oxygen free transfers. And no more mopping the ceiling! 🤣

I'll see your mug-face and raise you a goat!

Back in 1990 we stopped at a place in the Greece countryside that had a row of about 6 holes in the ground. I didn't need to go that bad...
