Definitely the sub zero water. Keeps the biologics from eating things. Not just the chains, Chippy. I saw a still photo taken off the port bow and there's an amazing amount of driving that's still intact. Fantastic historical find!

He's a great companion, but there's no innocence in him. Probably wondering what's next on the snack list. Or maybe wants me to go back to the office so he can sit between me and the laptop to help.

Maestro is most definitely a gentleman cat. We have traditionally had male felines and female canines. (Although we presently don't have a dog.)

My chair. (When it's not in use by his majesty, Maestro.)

I use Duck-Duck-Go and Opera browsers with Avast and don't get warnings...

Blessings to you for a speedy recovery.

My gall bladder was exorcised (exercised?) About 20yrs ago. Haven't missed it.... Well, I miss the excruciating pain that caused it to be retired.

Here in Arizona, our insurance is about $700/yr full coverage & two tiers up from minimum. A bit lower than when we were in California. Although my motorcycle insurance went up. Side note: I wear a helmet not because it's scary without it (it's rather freeing to go without), but because the...

A few years back, when we made our regular trip to the UK, I noted all of the available rental cars had sun roofs. It seemed to us those were for getting out after parking in the multi level parking garages... The spaces were barely big enough for the car... Let alone open the doors. (It's...

I've actually never had a problem with clumping providing there's a constant stir while adding the DME. LME, on the other hand, can really screw-up the bottom of the pan if not added rather slowly.

Blessed Merry Christmas !

I've always added the dissolved sugar to the secondary fermenter with a gentle stir. Never had issues in 11+ yrs. Most recent home-change (new water supply) has been the cause for all my over-carbed issues in my current batch being consumed.

Zingers, brother! Do you have an RV out back to live in? :laugh8: I mean if you're in full holiday-preparation mode, you've at least gotta have a port-a-jon. I'm a bit envious. You've got some quality equipment in there. Makes my one-pot, two-speidel, all-analog sampling equipment...

Curious what would have happened if he had opted not to sign the training contact? Would you have found another candidate and let him go?

I have always used a secondary and batch primed. I've never had any issues... Until recently. My last batch (a red ale) has given me reason to doubt, since when the bottle is poured into a glass, little more than a very few ounces are decanted before an enormous head is produced. Plus the...

Bottled "Victory or Death". A dunkel-bach that was meant to finish @6.2% ABV, but ended up 6.8%. Darkest brew I've ever had. If the sample is a sign... This is gonna be great in 2-4wks.

The canners I've seen are relatively easy operation; however, not economical or timely.

Garner? Spent 15 years in Raleigh. Was raised outside Hendersonville, NC. Moved to Raleigh after Navy service & degree from UNCA. (Sold my restored 1965 Malibu SS before leaving the mtns). I miss NC.

I, for one, appreciate the moderators on this. I can attest to seeing posts that could be considered as offensive to 'visitors' and it was only recently that i discovered the 'ignore' button. Yet, I still consider myself am interloper, because I'm live in the dirty, uncouth, and uneducated...

Don't forget to include a special 'secret' recipe for fish'n'chips with that in-law gift. :laugh8:
