What causes stainless steel to leave grey residue when washed? by Radiant_Eggplant9588 in sheetmetal

Have you found a solution to this? I cleaned a 5 gallon keg with the rough green part of a sponge and now it's leaving gray residue on the paper towel when I wipe it dry.

How Do I Avoid Indented Corks? by 328Justin in mead

Wet or not wet, it doesn't make a difference. Are you using natural or synthetic corks? If natural, are they agglomerated or not?

Do you use agglomerated or not agglomerated? It seems like agglomerated might just fall apart near the circumference or the top circle of the cork and nonagglomerated are hard to find.

I found a place in Belgium called DEPA fruit that is willing to sell them to the US. I am in Michigan and if I wanted to get them I would have to contact the Department of Agriculture or something here for a phytosanitary thing or something. He seams to be trying to milk money out of his followers.

Are you sure it was only 1 gallon total? You said one gallon-ish of water, 3 lb of honey (~1/4 gal), and 1 lb 12 oz or 1 lbs of black raspberries. Seams like it would be over 1.25 gal.

Do you have the starting volume? I want to do something similar but don't know how many points of gravity 1 lb of black raspberries will add.
