Gotta say glad I found this thread for when I'm working nights

Been missing the party I see.
An acquaintance is a dairy welder and recently began home brewing. He said he's always wanted to build breweries. This is his first attempt at a commercial brewery. It's for sale at the Visalia beer fest today. He will be building a custom rig for me when I can save enough money to open my brewery in town.

Howdy friends!
I'm brewing today!
It's a new pale ale I designed called Cactus Nectar.
Agave Nectar goes in the boil. Dulce de Nopales (candied prickly pear cactus) tea in the fermenter. No dry hop, but it is getting a 30 minute flame out hop stand with Amarillo and Simcoe.
It's a beautiful semi-overcast day here. Great day for brewing!
Cheers!
Sambal is a spicy, chili based sauce or relish that is popular in many countries across Southeast Asia, especially Indonesia and Malaysia. The sauce consists of ground or pureed chilies and may include small amounts of other ingredients such as citrus juice, shallots, fruit, salt, sugar, or other spices.

...I feel a little bad about abandoning the family, and leaving all the stresses behind for them to deal with for a while. Heck, maybe once they are around him more they will see he needs to be in hospice with 24 hour nursing care. Then I could go home, take care of things and just go visit him. Feeling very confident everything will work out. Treat this like a long vacation. Give hubby time to think about things. Perhaps come to his senses.
BBL, your dessert recipe sounds, sounds scrumptious. I'm not good at backing sweets but my wife is. I'll forward that recipe on to her. I know she'll do it justice.
All this talk of food haha. My wife and I recently started eating a paleo diet and i must say i feel 10x better then I did before we started.
Gald to see someone else is doing this! I have been on low carb variations for a couple years. It started when I was cycling professionally (track sprinter on the Velodrome). My carb needs were not significantly high on sprinting and weight training days. They were high when I did the odd endurance ride. The key was carb TIMING. Lets say I did an easy 3hr ride, I know I have to bring carbs to keep from bonking too hard, however I would bring just enough that its pretty much used up by the end of the ride... voila, sill near ketosis. I would also time small amounts of carbs before/during/immediately after sprint/weight sessions for performance reasons. Not only was I lean, but my anxiety and blood pressure improved dramatically. High fat, moderate protein for the win. Now i'm just a lazy student (had to stop cycling, medical issues), so I drink more beer but still stick to low/trace carbs the the rest of the day. Huge carb cheat meal once a week too.
I'm never really "hungry" and don't crave sweets (no insulin spikes during the day)... mmm fat. Also, 98% of the population doesn't understand that all these cardiovascular and heart problems are caused by inflammation of the arteries etc, which is caused by wheat (+other grains) and sugar. Also, exogenous cholesterol also has basically zero impact on endogenous cholesterol unless one has a problem. My suggestion: Don't believe your government food regulations... do your own research via published professional journals.
If you want a heated kick I highly recommend the Sambal Oelek. It's nothing like the popular Mexican hot sauces. Pretty potent though. I usually add a couple tablespoons to the above. It's up to you how much to use. The nose is a good judge.
