    Kimchi!

    Kimchi is an acquired taste. I love it, but my step father(which enjoys all kinds of unique foods) hates it. It is sour and sort of rotten smelling(it is basically a slow controlled rotting of cabbage- LOL). In the store you can by mild or spicy. If you make it yourself you can make it as hot as...

    SS Brew Bucket Base

    I use industrial strength velcro. I also considered buying a second base. The Velcro works fine though.

    Gardening: My Tomatoe and Pepper Progress

    That was really cool. I didn’t realize plants moved so much. I need to get one of those grow lights. My plants are so viney

    new Sauerkraut..and tomorrow - kimchi

    Those all look tasty. Love thye variety. I need to whip some kimchi up myself. I'm overdue. Hot sauce eggs should turn out ok. I do a recipe that is Franks Red Hot, cider vinegar, distilled vinegar, water, sugar and chopped onions. After 7-10 days they are delicious. Heck I eat them for...

    Who's smoking meat this weekend?

    I’ve been wanting to try my hand at smoked shotgun shells. Made them as an appetizer for Easter dinner. They turned out great for my first shot at them. Every recipe I looked at was different. I went with beef, finely chopped onion, lots of shredded cheddar and bbq rub stuffed inside manicotti...

    Kimchi!

    Those jars look good and spicy! Thanks for the reminder, I'm due to make a batch. I usually ferment 3-4 days, put it in pint jars and then let them finish off slowly in the fridge. By the time I get to the last jar its getting good and sour. My family room runs 68-72 depending on the season.

    Who's smoking meat this weekend?

    I think you'll enjoy your SmokeFire. It sounds like they got the bugs worked out of it now. I bought a Rectec in November and have about a handfull of smokes on it. I really like it. It is an adjustment though. I used a Bradley Electric Smoker for 10+ years which I was happy with as well until I...

    Closed transfer to smaller keg

    Did you have loose hops in the fermenter? They can clog up the posts. I had alot of problems with a recent Denny's Rye IPA I dry hopped and attempted to do a closed transfer. Helps if you have a racking arm in your fermenter you can rotate to stay above the hops and yeast also. I should have...

    What did I cook this weekend.....

    I have to admit that burger looks amazing. Looks like a 3 napkin burger. Gotta give that a try, even just as a topping.

    What did I cook this weekend.....

    2017 Weyerbacher Quad. One of my favorite quads. Gets better with age. My kind of meal!

    Fermented hot pepper sauce

    It sounds like the Mars LED grow light is worthwhile. Which model(s) do you have? I was looking at the Mars Hydra TS 600W full spectrum. Looks like it can be had on eBay for about $67 shipped. I only start about 16 pods at a time.

    How do you transport your refilled/full CO2 tank w/o a truck?

    I used to have mine filled at a fire equipment supply. They always told me to keep it upright for about 30 minutes. I think it was due to the temperature needing to regulate.

    Pickled eggs

    I love pickled eggs. Its been a while since I‘ve made any and was thinking about making a batch this week. I find they usually have good flavor in 1-2 weeks and they are usually all gone in a week or 2 after that. They do get a little hard/rubbery after a month or so total. My favorite 2 recipes...

    Who's smoking meat this weekend?

    I use tender quick in my kielbasa. Always works fine. Not sure how it will work dry brining a big old hunk of brisket. Best of luck 🤞

    Swimming in beer

    I scaled back to 2.5 gal for the most part. Like others have said, not as many family and freinds over to the house to help consume. And my wife seems to be drinking more wine than beer these days. I also like to buy some craft brews from time to time. I feel like I am swimming in beer at times...
