Do you bottle? Use a bottling bucket? Use one with a valve at the bottom?
That valve can get quite nasty in places that are impossible to spot without taking it completely apart.
We do get Spencer but I have only seen it for sale in a couple of places in CA. I would call the distribution to CA "extremely limited" based on my personal experience.
I agree with AZ_IPA.
It should only take 5-10 minutes on the broiler to crisp it up, though.
I have also crisped it in a frying pan before, although that takes a few turns to get all the sides crispy.
This sounds like the cable companies promising to bring low-cost high-speed internet to all of their customers in affected areas before their mergers were approved. Years later, still no service for those customers.
