Yeah. I still heat water in the microwave, even in the same cups, but I drop a toothpick in first. That way there are nucleation points for the bubbles.

Yeah, I can usually wrap the boss into a thirty minute conversation about beer or wine once or twice a week. That helps me cover my 'activities'. ;-)
 
...you see a link for a video entitled "Seal Hops in Family Boat," and wonder why someone would be repackaging their hops on board a boat, until you realize it's about an actual seal. Hopping into a boat. And then you feel let down.

I was wondering what Seal hops were ...
 
...You get a nasty cold, and decide the best way to treat it is by inhaling steam...
...from a pot of wort in a rolling boil for 90 minutes.
 
Wen you see an empty bottle and are not sad because there's no more beer in it, but because there's no beer in it yet.
