    How to make a yeast starter - Pictorial (updated)

    This is great advice for ales. However, for lagers, you should not be pitching starters at high krausen. The esters produced will be present in the finished beer. You should let a lager starter ferment completely at room temperature, then crash the starter for 24 hours, and decant the liquid...

    Restarted with a weaponless thief/mage build. Got my sneak and destruction leveled up, the perk for +25% to fire spells, have the robes of destruction, and now I tiptoe in, lure them out one at a time and hit them with a firebolt where no one else can see. And if I run up against a heavy magic...

    Something I've discovered about being a man

    See, I'd have bent down to the iguana and started making baby noises. "Ooo you're a ferocious little lizard aren't you? You're the mighty lizard king! Yes you are!" Oops. Then again my wife loves lizards. Congratulations! EDIT: Damn you Creamy and your ninja-edits.

    Who believes in Creamy Goodness?

    CreamyGoodnes and cheezydemon are the same person. I've known this from day one.

    Good Hard lemonade

    Mine took off almost immediately. I injected pure O2 with an aeration stone and oxygen tank, plus I added yeast nutrient and energizer.

    I've read that this is the only way you can. Women. Can't live with 'em, can't kill 'em... except in an Elder Scrolls game.

    The Misfits Of Brewing Science

    Ugh. So burnt out on citrusy beers.

    Switchin from Picaxe to PICMicrochips?

    I don't know who you're talking to, but this is terrible advice. C is a very simple, self-contained, straightforward, bare-bones language. C++ tries to fill every possible programming niche while remaining "C-like" to the point that it is so filled with gotchas that there are several books...

    I've just started Dark Brotherhood quests. It turns out that if you try to kill your marks without talking to them and folks see you, you get a bounty. But if you tell them "I'm gonna kill you" and then kill them, nothing happens. Kinda ruins the whole suspension of disbelief for me.

    I think the point of not being able to take every single perk is to keep the game interesting. For my character I took every single smithing perk, but I spread out just about everything else. As a result, I make absolutely deadly gear, but I'm pretty mediocre in anything else. Would love to...

    Alabama vote.

    Of course, having been around for billions of years, I'd imagine the dude has one hell of a tolerance.

    Elder Scrolls Skyrim

    Managed to get up to level 54 by taking the alchemy potency perks and making the more valuable potions. Alchemy is at 99. So, here's where I'm curious. If I can get all the potency perks in alchemy and enchanting, I should be able to make super-strong fortify enchantment potions, which I can...

    Elder Scrolls Skyrim

    I'm at level 50 right now, and I haven't leveled in weeks. Questing just doesn't improve my skills much anymore. Whatever perks I've got are pretty much the perks I'm stuck with. Unless I feel like starting over with a new character. I'm really starting to get bored of this build - quests just...

    Elder Scrolls Skyrim

    Yeah, I just use the elder scrolls wiki to help me "discover" the unknown effects when I need to. Otherwise, I just go through the potion list one by one until I'm out of items to use. Trouble is I've been doing this for a month and I still haven't maxed out alchemy. BTW - NEVER use a daedra...

    Where are you finding an abundance of giants? There's those mammoth skull icons on the map that represent giant camps, but in my experience after you kill them they don't respawn.

    Or just pickpocket the money back, maybe? Also, waterbreathing is a helmet enchantment. Find a jeweled circlet or make a cheap hide helmet, enchant, and you can sell all your waterbreathing potions.

    It turns out your traveling companions will never "run out" of any arrow you give them. I randomly picked up a daedric arrow after slaughtering some Forsworn, gave it to Mjoll along with a double enchanted ebony bow, and now I just run up to people, hold my shield up to build my block skill...

    National Homebrew Day Plans?

    Made a starter for my dusseldorf alt which I'm brewing next weekend. Left the stove on too hot and had a huge mess in the kitchen.

    Toasted sprouted quinoa, perhaps.
