    Rainbow bridge

    swimbo drives me crazy sometimes. my cat never does. being unable to speak they are just so much better at detecting emotions then people are. they always know when to stay away and can always tell when we are not feeling ourselves. its really astounding. plus pure empathy when we need...

    Corned beef.

    i havent seen pastrami for sale in the supermarket for about 10 years . its a shame pastrami is the ultimate corned beef. fortunately pastrami can be easily made from a corned beef. the secret is to steam it after **** done for several minutes. thats what all the real delis do. for a...

    Rainbow bridge

    this thread is a difficult read. i had a cat for many many years when i was little. i never appreciated him. i didn't realize how much joy he brought us. our cat now is considered part of the family. pet ownership is a brutal contract . that never occurred to me before.

    Re-using yeast from current brew

    same. i save it all . by my calculatoions when i repitch 8 oz or so it contains about 10 thousand million bagajillion cells. so it usually takes right off. 😉 one thing i have noticed is that when i take it out to repitch loosen the lid as said above but also pour off the beer on top ( you...

    Beer Kit Fermented in Corny Keg

    exactly . no "meaty off flavors " from yeast cake autolysis . this is a classic homebrew myth. meaty off lfavors in my experience is from stressed yeast not yeast cake. a easy way to test this is to drink the liquid off of slurry that you keep in the fridge. when i harvest cake from a...

    Beer Kit Fermented in Corny Keg

    Yes or just pour it in keg why the bucket? This reminds me of dr Hans . Shake and brew. I hate kit prices in the states for some reason over here they are like 30$ for a can then you still need fermentables. I think it’s the import shipping cost that kill kits here. Pretty sure none are...

    Parkinson's

    one of the key onset symptoms that primary care physicians have to look out for is essential tremor. which is no shakes at rest but potential issues when intentionally making movements like opening a door or signing your name. foot drop or locking of the legs is also an early sing. these are...

    First-time Lager Brewing

    although not absolutely needed either two packs of yeast or a starter made from live yeast is much more likely to give you a healthy fermentation. . another option is to ferment half a batch (2 to 3 gallons) with the one pack then use the cake from that batch to ferment a full batch . this...
