I used to use glad wrap... but now i've got so lazy i just loosely fit the fermenter lid on (one without an airlock hole) Works good

Probably when you took it out and let it warm up a bit to 17C some residual yeast either got stirred up or kicked off a little fermentation. You probably just got a bit more yeast than desired in the second taster glass. Let it condition, then keep it cool and let the yeast settle out and I...

Feb weigh in 89.9kg. Diet still not in check and exercise has dropped off through amended routine. Will get that in order in the coming weeks. Happy to maintain sub 90 this year. May even start brewing again.

This... unless you're leaving your beer for a very long time, you'll most likely never experience the detrimental effects of oxidation. Especially at Homebrew scale.

So i'll stoke the calorie in vs calorie out debate with my own super-non-scientific anecdote. A few months ago i'd stopped losing weight and was sitting at about 96kg. Was reasonably happy, but then started riding with some A-Grade riders that were destroying me, so decided to lose a few more...

Yeah I wouldn't say i'm overweight now... at my heaviest my BMI was 31. Not cool

Been a while since I reported in... after topping out at 120kg in late 2011, I've hit 88.5kg just before Christmas. This morning I was 90.5kg, with little to no diet discipline over the holiday break, i kind of expected that. Gonna try and maintain sub 90kg for the rest of the year. May even...

Well done matho that's a huge change! Got my 10,000km ridden and 110,000m climbed for 2014. Which was one of my goals for the year. Also ticked over the 30kg weight lost mark. 118.9 to now 88.5kg. Also set myself a goal to go up my local hill (Mt Gravatt) in less than 7mins. Did 6.43 on New...

OT Wait... Wait... Hold up. Ever seen a cat catch and kill a mouse? Those fuckers would make Pol Pot turn in his grave. Evil little ***** they are. My cats have tossed mice in the air for hours skinned and devoured those little pricks. Humane they are not. Effective yes... Humane certainly...

Too many bloody choices. You guys are no help. ;)

Going to Newstead for lunch around 1ish

Good advice, been reading up a bit. I've enjoyed the softer malts, but now trying to extend the palette. Maybe a mid step is in order before going too far. Have also been considering Highland Park 12 or even Lagavulin 12 (but maybe too big at this stage)

Just got some good news.. finished paying of my HECS. So to celebrate i'm going to get a bottle of Single Malt for the occasion. Still early days into the Single Malt thing, but really enjoying sampling the couple of bottles I have at hand. Dalwhinnie 15 and a Glenlivet 12. Nothing too special...

Couldn't find any VB so decided to have one of these instead.

Yeah looks like passivating would be a good idea. I have citric acid at home. "Yes, the dried acid powder is ~100% citric acid anhydrous (dehydrated citric acid). It will work. Make a solution of 100g/L and expose the surface for a minimum of 30 minutes at room temp. If you can heat it past...

Just saw this posted on Reddit. Thought it looked pretty cool, so thought I'd post here. http://www.reddit.com/r/DIY/comments/1zekac/how_to_add_permanent_volume_markings_to_a_kettle/ http://imgur.com/a/dCvS5

OK that was cool. Contacted Sony, told them my TV was ******* out on me. Went through the usual, banter. SONY: "Did you try turning it on and off again?" argon: "yes, yes no it's still ******." Then this happened. SONY: "OK, well it'd be too expensive to get repaired. How about we offer...

yep, was pretty much top of the range back then. Think I paid 3k on the nose with extras. Looking at getting as close to 2K for a 60inch now. Just have to "encourage" the TV to keep playing up for Mrs argon to get her fully on board. Current one is 50Hz and does (did) ok. 90% of my TV now is...

My 40inch Sony TV is giving it up. 6 years old and the screen is flickering bad. Warranty period is over, the repairs are going to be pretty expensive. I have mixed feelings about it. On one hand, giving me the ***** that an expensive TV is ******* out on me. On the other, this is an...
