    My computer has a virus

    Had the same FBI Ransomware couple weeks ago. I tried malwarebytes, ccleaner and they didn't work. The youtube video I was watching said I could do a system restore, worked like a charm. I then ran the malwarebytes and ccleaner for insurance and have been OK so far. Ryan

    Any ither UDS guys out their?

    I built one for my dad for Fathers Day this past year, yeah I know best son ever. I have to tell you, though, I'm jealous he gets to use it every weekend and I have to suffer with my Weber Smokey Mountain ;). But seriously I need to source some food grade barrels here in Dallas so I can build...

    Show us your Sous Vide Cooker!

    Hey Revvy I'm sure someone has asked you this already but you wouldn't happen to have a wiring diagram for your temp controller, or does it come with instructions? Thanks Ryan

    Alright, pony up those pics of you in the 80's.

    The first one was taken between 82 and 83. As you can see I'm already selling tickets to the gun show. The second one was probably 86, I was all dressed up to give the crown to the homecoming queen at the high school football game. Looking like a baller with my boots on. Come to think...

    100 Foods To Eat Before You Die

    I'm at 70 and counting. To be honest I feel I should have more since I consider myself a foodie. I also think Bone marrow should be added to the list, rich beef flavor without all the pesky chewing you have to do with steak. I purchased a couple bones from the store the other day and the...

    The oak options for the En Primeur kits

    I purchased the En Primeur Dashwood New Zealand Pinot Noir kit today from my LHBS. I was looking through the kit and there is all the normal stuff (bentonite, sorbate, Kmeta, etc.), then I see a Mylar bag labeled "oak1192". I opened it and it seems to be oak shavings/powder. However there is...

    Show us your Mead in a photo!!!

    Its about 16% ABV so when it was bulk aging it was rocket fuel with a hint of bitterness (from the Gesho). A couple months after bottling a lot of the harshness went away and a slightly bitter apple flavor dominated with a very dry finish. The last time I cracked a bottle was in January and...

    Show us your Mead in a photo!!!

    Thanks baker, I let it bulk age for 8 months before I bottled and didn't use any fining agents. This is really just a case of if you let it sit long enough it will eventually clear on its own. Ryan

    Show us your Mead in a photo!!!

    Here is a pic of the T'ej I started on 11/10/10, so aged almost 1.5 yrs. T'ej is an Ethiopian mead flavored with Gesho (used similar to hops). So I guess you could consider this mead, Braggot, or maybe Metheglin (depends on what you consider the Gesho is). I only have 2 bottles left so I need...

    wine is too sweet

    If raising the temp doesn't work you could pitch a pack of EC-1118. That monster can restart most stuck fermentations. Ryan

    anyone else as not excited for tonight's game as i?

    As a California transplant and a niner fan I feel its my duty to go for the pats. Other than that I think the Giants should feel lucky they were given this gift from Kyle Williams.

    bunch of screw offs...

    Ive corked some screw off bottles. But was so worried the neck was going to break off when I corked it and when I went to take the cork out that I don't use them any more. Your wine is to precious to be filled with shards of glass Ryan
