    polished granite tile

    Well turns out he was using windex. Seems more like the dust got ground in and scratched everything up. Hopefully he can buff everything out. There are one or two the grout got ground into. They started walking on it before they cleaned it. He may have to bust a couple out and relay them.

    polished granite tile

    Having issues, my roommate is finishing up tiling the kitchen. He can't seem to get the tile clean, it has this cloudy haze. He is using granite specific cleaner. I thought vinegar was good, but read no acidic cleaners. Then read ammonia with no surfactants (soaps), then read no ammonia...

    Tito's Handmade Vodka? Change of recipe?

    I tried some a few years ago and noticed this. I used to be a huge fan. I thought my taste had refined and I never noticed the low quality. When was the last time you tried it? Poor QA? Bad batch?

    amazon 2 gallong cooler

    I'll tell you what will work with that. Get about 30 ft of stainless tubing and make a coil that fits inside. If you pull off the spigot, a bulkhead fitting will thread nicely thru the hole allowing you to mount a tap on there. Get a chromed sink drain and cut a length off to cover up the...

    White spots and cob web

    I planted my rhizomes Sat. and on one of them I noticed white spots, a couple others there was something similar to cob web on them. I'm not sure if this could be some type of infection or parasite. I don't want to risk the other plants. Any ideas?

    Brewery names

    After the brew name thread, I was wondering what others name their brewery after. I had a roommate that named his hooch (distilled spirits) after the street we lived on...Long Cove Distiling, and another roommate, Long Cove Brewing. I've named mine after the marsh/swamp (named after a...

    Oak Chips

    I soaked dark toasted cubes in Knob Creek for several months. Drained off the liquor and dropped them into the secondary before racking. I let it sit for a few weeks or more. It came out really nice. Really nice nose from the bourban and good oak charector in the aftertaste. It mellowed out to...
