I like this time at night on HBT

[bottlebomber]

First I learn that I need a whipped cream whipper for N2O infusion experiments, now I bought a Kaiser roll press. Surfing HBT is spendy.

I've got the kaiser press in the basket too after Rex's last posting in the bread thread

I really enjoy this thread! Happy weekend to you all.

Me too. Roasting coffee (hobby started here as well)

Well done, Dan. This is a great thread. Simple and no stress.

I don't post here much... But I typically try to play catch up when I use the restroom

Dan IS top shelf. I'm not always posting but seldom more than 24 hours removed from this thread.

We had dinner out with the boys and a set of grandparents. We should be able to finish my parent's roof this weekend weather permitting. I hope I will find some time to get the boys out bird hunting as well.

Hope you all are enjoying this time of Friday night and have a good weekend.

So I'm on the graveyard again, drinking the last of my giant redbull... Thinking of all things brew... When the strangest idea hit me:

Is there an inline measurement tool to tell you how much fluid has passed? Similar to a gas pump scale, it know how much fuel you've pumped, but here, the inline could tell you how much wort has passed through. I don't even know what something like this would be called... Does it exist??

 

[LabRatBrewer]

Yes. There are guys using the flow meters and the raspberry PI to monitor their kegs. Search for the thread in the DIY section. I'm on phone but I'll see if I can post the link.
The thread is [Version 2] Raspberry Pints. Here's the link (if this works):

Dunno if the swiss flow meters are rated for that high of temps though. Finding a reasonably priced high temp food grade flow meter could be difficult. I am sure the reasonably priced bit is the constraining factor though.

Hey, this thread was not on my first page of unread threads. No posts yesterday. That can't be right.

 

[brewingmeister]

Well it seems we were either trapped in an alternate universe where time and Internet doesn't exist or we were loose on brewski.
I'd lean towards the latter.

I did do a couple of experiments with nitrogen cavatation tonight, some fruitful some not.
But I'm drunk so I'm done, the vodka did the best explaining my condition but this is promising!
Night HBT

My N2O just arrived today. Can't wait to experiment.

Hey you fools. Late night at the corral.

I just took my dog Marlee out. She always goes out one last time at night to pee in the front lawn. Lovely night, mid 70's. Stars were bright, and there was noticeably no moon. No moon at all.

For your late nite soundtrack, Mel Torme.

 

[brewingmeister]

No moon is new moon..

No moon is new moon..

Not even a sliver tonight. Great night for watching the stars. The sky looks like diamonds scattered on dark velvet.

So I grew a pineapple. What do do with it? Ferment it, Tepache!!! (A nod and thank you to PP's thread on the topic)

As they say picture or it didn't happen

 

[brewingmeister]

Interesting, can you expand on grew a pineapple?

 

[LabRatBrewer]

True.

 

[LabRatBrewer]

Couple years ago I planted the very top of a store bought pineapple and ignored it. Apparently they like abuse. Finally it flowered and eventually became a pineapple. I cut it into big sections and froze it. Hopefully it will still work.

 

[LabRatBrewer]

This one has been in a pot for over a year. No sign of flowering.

 

[passedpawn]

LRB, just keep an eye on that Tepache. It will ferment into a very tart jet fuel if you let it go. When you see signs of fermentation, start tasting every couple of days.

 

[ChefRex]

How big was the pot you used to grow the one you harvested? Very cool.

 

[brewingmeister]

That's pretty cool but at a few years, not for the impatient. Pineapples like abuse eh? What's you climate? I've lived in some places where outside is way more than abuse..

 

[LabRatBrewer]

(How do you multiple quote?) I'll keep an eye on it PP, a friend (with family in.mexico) says same thing.

Chef, it was very big (we are using the pot for a lemon tree now), but I read that it does not need to be that big. I'm going to let this one run its course in the pot it's in and see.

 

[LabRatBrewer]

BTW she also said she thougt her dad only used the pineapple skins, and the sugar cones.

Home depot has small potted pineapples right now (saw them this weekend, put one in cart but then put it back ). The pineapple in their pot was about the size of a tennis ball. I saw them in the front, near the outdoor dept, by where they keep the patio furniture. Stores are probably different everywhere, so just ask if you pursue this.

I planted a lemon tree behind my house about 10 years ago. Man I've gotten a lot of lemons off that thing. Hard to use that many lemons, but it's nice to be able to go back there and pluck one off when you need it.
