My compost pile is just a pile. I intend to make a bin at some point and actually take care of it, but for now it's just a pile. Might be good to add worms to it too! We had an old fridge buried in the ground when I was a kid. it was on it's back with a couple of inches sticking out of the...

I got bored waiting for my wife to come to bed, so I picked up GLOW again. I watched one or two episodes before, but this time the characters started to be developed, and it actually wasn't too bad! The manager dude is pretty greasy, but you can tell he's got some heart underneath it all and.

Missed a good game. I ended up watching the Wings. Tie game with about a minute left and some idiot ices the puck for no good reason, which I instantly realized would give them the loss. It did. That is the kind of mistake that the Wings seem unable to recover from this season. Weak.

Here is the video of the test firing.

Update: Finished building the first burner. Assembeled with my daughter in the kitchen, hooked it up to the propane tank in the garage and I'll be darned if the thing didn't take off beautifully! I managed to run at full throttle (20 PSI according to the regulator I bought) and down to a low...

EcuPirate!!

Sorry, furniture shopping with the wife. Who's left?

Sirry, guys, work's kept me very busy. Haven't been active here layely, but I jyst skimmed through the offers and all I csn say is... DAYUM!

I tried on my phone and forgot to get it done on my computer. Just a minute!

Unbelievable. They tied it up, then lost in OT, which is one of the few consistents the Wings have this season.

My God, Wheat Have I Done?

Honey I shrunk the IBUs

Some people might consider this a good thing? It's probably better than being Horse-Tied and Hog-Whipped. Anyway, I don't feel a beer has to neatly fit into a specific category to be a good beer, but I concur that it should at least be close whatever category you call it, so we shall begin...

I was going to suggest BIAB and smaller batches. I could honestly bang out a brew in under 3 hours if I prepared my ingredients and equipment beforehand. Since my family got me a couple of 2.5 gallon kegs, I've done many small batches and they are faster and easier and I get to brew more often!

It's cold out. Too cold to drill and tap the burner pipes. I had high hopes for last night but by the time I got done snowblowing the driveway and cooking dinner, I was not about to go back out in near single digits temps to try to do what needs done. That would have left me with errors. I...

Put some risotto in the pressure cooker last night along with some basmati rice (Just trying to use up both...) After the first round was cooked and the rice was expanded I added two turkey tenderloins on top and sprinkled them with some Belgian White Spices, then cooked it under the "poultry"...

You will still get spirits by distilling immediately, but you might also get more yeast flavors. I'd be inclined to remove the trub before processing. And there is NOTHING wrong with adding more flavor before running! I would think that would be obvious. Different still designs will lead to...

What is your source of water? I've heard water from a water softener has a high amount of sodium.

Interesting concept. I've done a few short brews with somewhat similar processes. They turned out pretty decent, however I haven't been consistent enough to form a precise process. I never thought about shortening the mash time in order to achieve a different sweetness/mouthfeel, but I dont'...
