106% stronger, wow all that from dropping 2 liters from a kit? your maths confuses me MHB, remind me not to get you to do my books :P

i dont bottle but i look at a keg as 1 big bottle. i picked up what i thought was a dusty empty keg in the shed, realised it was full, chilled and carbed. Tasted amazing, little less hop character but still delish. Im pretty sure it was smurto's land lord must have sat in the shed for 10-11...

i just use a short bit of silicone with a copper 1/2" elbow shoved in, goes in center always

I accidentally popped a pack of 3463 (thinking it was the 2206) at the same time, dated june 2011 and it...

fileserver will struggle performance wise as it is limited to usb 2.0 hard drives and 10/100 network. it could be just me but i like my stuff off the server at gigabit speeds :P it definitely handles debian/ubuntu without issues. Samba shares require a bit of overhead and sometimes struggles...

did you end up getting from rs or farnell?

i got one it is pretty amazing for its size, however i have been fooling around with the gpio ports and it can be a bit sluggish when using the kernel 1 wire bus etc, so that side project is on hold till the gertboard expansion comes out. :P Makes a pretty sweet media box though
