Your daughter is a felon now. Its illegal to pick blue bonnets lol. Love seeing them on the road. Beautiful.

Silly DisturbdChemist, those are his privately owned bluebonnets.

That's in his estate. The huts in the background are where the serfs live.

I'm sorry officer, but I'm Science Brewer Man, and we're Irish, so obviously she was drunk.

Step one: Open package of gelatin
Step two: Pour contents of package in trash can
You can stir it into the trash if you'd like. That's up to you.

No.

Commonly held belief but completely incorrect. Totally legal to pick.


Also I never stir when adding gelatin.

Interesting. How does it know what & where to clear? You obviously know what you're doing, I am just curious as to the science.

Ah, I see it's girls-pooping-on-bluebonnets season again.

So...how chummy have you gotten with the hospital staff by now? By the time my memory starts, they already knew about my brewing. It was surreal

Ended up having one of my friends coming to visit lug a rolling suitcase full of beer to give out to the hospital staff. They were pretty cool about it.

My gelatin process- boil water, add gelatin, let it bloom fully, stir, and then nuke it 10-15 seconds at a time, stirring in between until it completely dissolves. Add to COLD fermenter. Wait 3 days. Done.

If you can get premixed *fresh* liquid isinglass, that's easier to use and just as effective, plus will resettle if it gets roused, where gelatin won't (hence why isinglass is the standard for casks). The problem is the premixed liquid is stupidly unstable and typically not viable any more even while still on the LHBS shelf. The powder is a royal PITA and stinks something fierce, but my god it works wonders.

Also, fish guts. No less gross than horse hooves or bone marrow or whatever it is they make gelatin out of these days.

The FIL eats fast. By tbe time if put the two kids in their chairs and grabbed two quick pulls of Pils he'd devoured his grub.

He likes the Pils.

Finished work early today to do some stuff. Stopped to check the scenery on the way back from picking up kid

Sounds like my kids. I go to grab a beer or a condiment and they're done eating. Cute pic!

Ruination #3 and watching hockey.

 

[banesong]

When no one tells you they changed the shoes on the prowler, and pushing half the weight you normally do (that you could previously throw around with relative ease) makes you almost black out...

I'm going to go die now.

Hrm.... Looks like an interesting exercise.

Water, cleaning the kitchen, and bedtime. Beer tomorrow, small race Saturday with the 6yo. Plan to get a real run in afterwards.

Ah yes it is. Anywho love every jumped on me on that comment.

Beer related sentence.

It's like the burpee. Full body, and lots of ways to switch it up and beat yourself into the ground.

Just went through that with my daughter and pneumonia. Sorry to hear that you are there. Scary when kids get sick. The only bright side is hot medical professionals!!!

 

[slym2none]

FTR - started the cold-crash last night, so the beer should be good & cold by now.

I am still hesitant though, since the spigot on the LBK is just above the bottom, and don't want any beer-jello in my bottles. I know Gavin said it should be OK, but having never done it before... yeah, a little hesitant.

 

[iijakii]

Burpees are quite tough.

@1977Brewer sounds rough, hopefully everything works out alright.

Literally the only bright side. Especially in a children's hospital. They're the nicest damn people here.

There is cold G-Bot in my fridge. Beer gods have disavowed me at this point.

 

[Gavin C]

Ah yes it is.

Nope. Totally Legal

 

[allenH]

Me either, always worked fine. I read somewhere here that it was like a magnet for yeast so stirring was unnecessary. I might have been druck though

I only drank sours at Bells and they were all solid. Wild One was terrific as was thier dry hopped sour

 

[fuzzy2133]

Dinner time. Not feeling 100% probably means no beer but Vandal eyes is still tasting good even with the fading hops.

I had some witty something to say, forgot, tired and a bit druck

Hrm.... Looks like an interesting exercise.
See above
Water, cleaning the kitchen, and bedtime. Beer tomorrow, small race Saturday with the 6yo. Plan to get a real run in afterwards.

And again, see above, tired night cap of 04/20/16

Burpees are tedious but easy. It's when you throw other stuff in there, or use burpees as your rest period that it's murder.

You on vaca or somethin'? I've always wanted to brewery hop in Michigan.

Lets ditch our SWMBOs and bro-out.

I guess that's true. I normally did burpees after some weights already, and they were brutal. At about the 10th one I couldnt even jump. Now I'm just fat.

 

[iijakii]

Damn @1977ishbrewery, first the wife in hospital and now the daughter?

Hope everything is OK. How's your wife doing?

 

[GnenieGone]

Missed something? Best wishes for her. If that's the Dallas Children's Hospital, they will be great...but hope we never see it again.

When I started getting into shape around this time last year, 10 burpees would destroy me. Now I'll knock out 15 of them in between weight sets. Or, throw the prowler sled (or rather, explosive push to move it out a distance in front of you), follow it with long jump, burpee, repeat until you've moved the sled maybe 50 yards. That'll knock me to the ground after just a couple sets.

Hope she is better or more comfortable soon!

 

[iijakii]

I want some more @m00ps beer. I think Ive read before that you have more beer than you can drink, because you're not an alcoholic like I am, right? I'll totally pay for shipping if you want to send me a sampler every couple/few months. I just dont brew enough exciting stuff to do trades often. I'd feel bad sending you a bunch of cheap DEM and boring lagers.

 

[Qhrumphf]

Bière de Garde. Probably my only beer of the night.

I prefer slurpees

She's fine. Secondary infection from pneumonia.

Cooks in Fort Worth. They're great too.

Hope she is better or more comfortable soon!

She's looped on morphine now.

Here. Wifey and I were supposed to be on a date tonight. Date night challenge thing at church, so we checked this in as our date. I dare someone to challenge it.
