Here's part 5, A & B, for anyone interested; Started reassembling the gun today. Have to start stripping old bluing & rust from the metal parts today. Then polish metal & re-blue it all.

More pills & gun parts...

Cleaned some bottles I had soaking, dumped the bucket they were in & rinsed that. gotta drain & rinse my grain bag outta the fermenter I'm soaking, lightly scrub that drain into bucket & rinse all. Then use the bucket of cleaner PBW to soak some more collection labels to trade. :mug:

Lighten up. That one wasn't that bad looking, ie not very advanced. Bottling it eliminates the oxygen the infection needs to progress. I've only had one produce bottle bombs & it was more advanced then that one. Your continued attacks on just about anything I say are a mystery insomuch as my not...

Adding a little wort at a time to help gradually bring the rehydrate temp down is OK too. :mug:

That's why I use spring water, for the slight mineral content the lil yeasties seem to like.

In the above pics, the broken ice pack-lookin' stuff is an infection. rather minor at the moment. so if it's ready to bottle now, do it. & try to limit airspace in secondary & you'll virtually eliminate this sort of thing.

Well, it tasted rather boozy as of the 2nd FG sample. By the 3rd, it mellowed out to where it didn't have so much of that boozy quality. But boy, dang is that poufy part of the gruits taking a long time to settle in the bottles!...

When you're soaking a fermenter, cleaning bottles & finishing a gunstock all at the same time while still feeling the effects of the beer & tequila the other night...

More coffee...tryin' to wake up for the day's events.

My model 760 Powermaster was the 1966-1970 model with wood stocks. Just can't find it? I remember it needing a seal kit at any rate. But this variant 1 model 160 is coming along darn good for a 60 year old gun. Check out episode IV, the stock's startin' to look really good... Wanna get the...

You really need to have it out with this nosy fool, your lawyers & the law! He is not allowed to invade your privacy looking for things to complain about that turn out to be completely innocent! They can't do that!!! Darn fools watched me with binoculars, then found themselves starin' at my...

I've been busy shooting video while restoring an old Crosman model 160 Pellgun I found in my closet. 1955-56 variant 1 model in .22 caliber. Great small game gun that uses 2 Co2 Powerlets for about anything up to turkeys. I shot & posted 2 videos this weekend, including yesterday. Trying to get...

Definitely invasion of privacy & you can take him to court over that & the history of problems with unwarranted trouble from this overly-nosy neighbor. We do have laws against ignorant crap like this! I've called my union's lawyers over stuff like this & talked with them & the cops before about...

And episode 3 of restoring the Crosman model 160-.22 caliber...

As long as you bottled it asap!

It's far more typical to pitch the rehydrated yeast at within 10 degrees of wort temp. Been doing that for years & it works great. They said 10 degrees for years.

It sure is!...perfectly normal. Nothing to see here, folks, move along...

Yeah, lots to read & learn, with everything to drink & even what to cook & eat with it. Slowly getting back into my air rifles these days, now that the " magnums" have arrived. So I'll be figuring out what beers go with what game as well. That'll prove interesting, I'm sure?!...:mug:

I expanded upon that theme in the near future. Since we're all that & now too dependent on technology, well, shiz just got real...only now things can move faster & with more detrimental results of a more permanent nature.
