    El Catador Club

    So, today is the day. I am still unclear how they will offer extra bottles online. They also said the would send an email detailing the extra bottle sale, which they have not. Any ideas?

    Nice. I thought we had until 30 days after the end of the bottle release. Glad you verified.

    About Time To Document This (Strut/Penrose/BCS-460 System)

    For cutting steel electrical enclosures with a jig saw, we have always used the finest toothed blade you can find. I usually shoot for 2-3 teeth engaged in the cut thickness. This will greatly reduce having a bunch of chatter and shaking your arm off. I am also an ME and a machine designer. For...

    hot water hose question

    Look on Mcmaster Carr. They have a ton of tubing that is and usually options for selecting the temperature range it will be used in and also if it is FDA rated, or safe for human consumption. As stated above, silicon would work.

    Brewing with cereal??

    I local homebrew club did a random brew where they bought a bunch of cereal and put the names in a hat. Everybody had to draw a name out of a hat and brew with that cereal. I heard there were some good results and some odd ones also. Fruity pebble saison......

    Jak, I received the ARL today. Thank you. I look forward to using this on my next batch of rice wine. I will report back on the outcome.

    Was thinking about sangria. It would compliment the fruit quite well.

    2 things extract more heat out of peppers, heat & alcohol. I make a salsa bloody mary vodka that I put 5 peppers in and it will smoke just about anybody.

    I will look into those. Thanks for the tip. I have been pitching 2 of the VN small yeast per lb of rice. Yep, blue package. I picked up larger ones made by the same company, 4 per pack, with red lettering.

    Making Traditional rice Wine. Cheap, Fun, and Different

    Yeah, it has just been so much cleaner tasting. I picked a few more packages yesterday. I did find both types of VN yeast, big and small. Both packaged by the same company, just one is red lettering and one is blue. All of my experience has been with the blue small VN yeast. If anything, I would...

    I have not, but have seen you guys talking about it. I have not seen it in my local markets, but have been keeping my eye out. I have been beyond happy with the Vietnamese yeast balls, but would be happy to experiment with some of that. You are selling it on eBay aren't you?

    Thats really good. Usually averages around a buck a pound around here, even in 25# bags.

    The arborio rice has been the best flavored batch to date. Not one hint of sour or alcohol hotness. Just sweet goodness. I have tried all the other rices with various yeasts and nothing compares. Thanks for the comparison pics.

    I found some arborio rice last night at Fresh Market, but it was on sale for $4 a pound. Thought that was a little steep. Guess I will have to keep looking. Likely could find it cheaper online in quantity.

    Could you post a picture of your bentonite experiment next to a bottle that has been pasteurized and cold crashed? Mine seem to clear quite quickly with this method and I just wonder if the results are that much better using the bentonite. Not doubting you, but would like to see a comparison.

    I wish they made a few different micron size paper filters. The regular ones seem to clog pretty quickly. Almost wish I could do a progressively smaller mesh so it would flow better.

    Making Traditional rice Wine. Cheap, Fun, and Different

    I have been using a really fine mesh bag they sell at the homebrew store. Not quite sure what it would be good for as the pores are so small, little liquid passes through it freely. It cut my sediment down to under a 16th of a bottle of a 750. I was getting about 1/4 bottle sediment before. I...
