@aharri1 your mystery box is finally boxed up! Hopefully, the last beer I picked up today will make it worth the wait. Will DM you the tracking number tomorrow.

I picked up the last few beers for the box last night, so I plan on getting it out this weekend!

Thanks Lee, I had never heard of these! They look really cool. Or hot, depending on the flow of energy and enthalpy. It’s contraptions like these that make me question the second law of thermodynamics (absorption chillers being another). I wonder if I can use the exhaust from the hood as the...

No, I open the 6" x 24" window you can see at the back of this picture and there is a good pull of air through that opening. The downside is that the incoming air not conditioned, so it can be cold in the winter and humid in the summer. However, the vent you see in the foreground is the closest...

My kid thinks that the hood exhaust up-blast fan outside the basement window is going to make the house jump!

My flux capacitor is in the office at work :D

So, I decided that I needed to upgrade my brewery dashboard. I had some LED seven-segment displays that showed the temperature in my mash tun, and the highest and lowest temperatures of my six serving keezer probes. Some LEDs showed whether or not my flowmeters were sending a signal to the...

I’ll take @fourfarthing mystery box!

Damnit, having spent 1999 to 2004 in Milwaukee, I would have been up for the Leinies!

So I made it out to pick up some beers this evening only to remember that Buried Acorn is closed Mondays :( If you guys will have me, I'll put together a mystery box of barrel aged beers and IPAs, but no worries if I need to skip this time.

Sorry all, I came down with covid this week so I’ve been out of it and haven’t been able to shop. I’m out of quarantine on Monday morning. Will try and put together an offer after work on Monday and get it in Monday evening.

No problem. Same boat here.

That‘s exactly my excuse for missing the last couple of rounds!

I have lost some skin before reaching for the pliers, so I'd be a +1 on getting a bit more purchase when trying to unscrew the caps.

Rocky Mountain NP, CO?

I'm in for this round!

Yes, I’m BrewPi Remix on the cold side, but hardware PIDs on the hot side. Once my HLT PID learned what it takes to hit temps while driving my HERMS coil, the problem was solved. Even my most complicated step mashes have only four temperatures, usually over 80 mins when my brewery has my...

Pliny vs Swami’s in the original Pizza Port location in Solana Beach. Tough decision. Might need to go to a second or third round, despite the home field advantage.

Rats! Too slow again. It’s the Bridge to Nowhere. Great hike when I lived in Pasadena. https://www.latimes.com/travel/story/2021-03-13/new-la-hike-bridge-to-nowhere

Rats, I was too slow on this one. My second US road trip was Los Angeles to Milwaukee via Needles, CA; Flagstaff, NM; Santa Fe, NM; Clayton, NM; Boise City, OK; Dodge City, KS; Salina, KS; Kansas City, MO; Des Moines, IA; Rockford, IL; Milwaukee, WI.
