Plug it into an Inkbird, and it's a mini fridge again...

I think you would want to cut the other ingredients back a bit as you won't have the sugar to balance things. Maybe in half? It's got to be better than all those store bought seltzers that taste like nothing...

I was fishing off the pier in Cayucos a few years ago when a humpback whale came into the bay. You could always tell where it was going to surface because it was preceded by a spray of silver anchovy, trying to get away. As it moved closer to the pier, I quickly reeled in my line but got...

My mom is looking for a used Leaf/Volt/Bolt. Her daily max is about 25 miles but, 4 is more likely.

I totally forgot to take a pic but last night I cooked a 3.5 lb tri-tip in my airfryer (30 min @ 400F) and was amazed at how good it turned out! It had a great crust but still rare in the middle and very tender.

Mine has both Airfryer and Convection Oven settings. I've never been able to tell what the difference is.

I am planning a blueberry wheat. It's my wife's favorite so I feel obligated every 5 years or so...

Mine is a good size, but occasionally I still run out of room. It can also be a pita to clean as the basket drips onto the door/hinge when you pull it out. That said, it is pretty rare that I fix a meal without using it for something. When I replace, it will probably be with one of the 32 qt...

I don't have his number, so I tried sending him smoke signals. After all, he's just the next state over and he is pretty old-school... But then the fire department showed up and put a nix on that whole thing...

I can't tell you how many times I've been talking to another homebrewer and said "There's this guy on HomeBrewTalk..." I have no idea what I will talk about if I don't get new @bracconiere stories soon!

I just wasted an hour trying to generate "mad scientist with a green beard that looks like hops holding a beaker of amber liquid over a flame". Craiyon got the closest but results were still underwhelming. I finally found the Bing AI and it produced some possibilities.

I haven't been keeping up with this and I doubt I can remember them all, but I can at least add the highlights: +5 Crazy Redhead 2 (switched from centennial to cascade hops) +5 Crazy Redhead 3 (switch 4lbs of 2-row to wheat malt) +5 Crazy Redhead 4 (switched 1lb of wheat to flaked rye) +5 Irish...

Funny how many homebrewers have a similar mindset... A few months ago I was playing around with ChatGPT. At first I was just having it tell me jokes. Then I asked it to give me a recipe for 5 gallons of stout. The recipe it produced was awful, with half the grain bill being roasted malts. I...

Jays are always jerks. Not you @Jaybird , although now I have to wonder why you identify with a bunch of jerks... 🤣

Based solely on my local homebrew club over the last 12 years, we saw a sharp decline with COVID but membership has been increasing rapidly over the last year. Activity is near a record high. When I first started, we were happy to take 2-4 beer to a brewfest but now take 10-16. I have also...

Do earwigs do this kind of damage? They are the only bug I am seeing. It looks like the same bug completely wiped out my zucchini. I’ve tried diatomaceous earth, neem and insecticide soap so far but nothing seems to slow it down.

Flame-out or a 170F-150F whirlpool. A lot depends on your system and practices. My IC goes from boil to 108F in 3 minutes, which is really too fast for good aroma extraction so I have to either take a break after flame-out and adjust the rest of my hop schedule to compensate, or whirlpool. I...

I have to brew this weekend for a club event in 2 weeks, which is really pushing it. My wife was wanting to make a Soft and Fluffy inspired beer but I think we will have to go with the Amber recipe I have been tweaking over the last year, for times sake.

I saw my first Rivian in the wild yesterday...
