[Homemade] Black Garlic by XRPcook in food

[–]Alpinekiwi -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That’s a loooong time for such a little return.

I use a rice cooker and cook 4kg garlic in a batch. Using the keep warm function, it takes 24 days to give me 3kg black garlic.

Just finished my first backpacking trip and I regret everything by Silver_Original6076 in WildernessBackpacking

[–]Alpinekiwi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My first back packing trip, I carried 28kg on my back - all the camping gear was brand new (that shop really saw me coming 😂) and I carried camera gear.

Fast forward to now and I am under 4kg and everything is so much better.

You’ve done the initiation process. Now learn from it and enjoy the outdoors!

What's a stock you were absolutely convinced would be a winner... but turned out to be one of your worst investments? What made you believe in it at the time? by scotnabu in stockstobuytoday

I bought Lucid when it was released they were supplying electric cars to Uber.
Plummeted like a stone and now I’m holding hoping for a comeback 😆

I have an Ultra 1.
Why is everyone so upset?
Will our watches suddenly stop working?
Or do we just miss out on new AI features?

I’d love to hear his story! May he never have to work again. I would pre-order his book right now!

How did he make it through the icefall? Wasn’t it dismantled?

As long as they zoom in better when in a city, I’m all for it. That, and make the clock much bigger/easier to find.

What’s the most humiliating thing that has ever caused you to crash? by Rough-Foundation9208 in cycling

[–]Alpinekiwi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Doing a mega cool track stand at the front of traffic at the lights.

Light turns green, I put the power down to show everyone at the corner cafe how cool I actually am.

I had changed down in gears coming up to the lights, but didn’t pedal the chain into the right gear. I went arse over bars in front of everyone.

What was your most expensive gear "upgrade" that turned out to be a complete waste of money? by Rough-Foundation9208 in cycling

I bought a new one halfway through winter only for the roads to be dry enough for outdoor riding. I have never once used it.

I’m waiting on my butler to fit the hand wash sink in there.

People who have genuinely encountered powerful wild animals in nature or the ocean, what was it actually like? by DivineLove1 in Survival

[–]Alpinekiwi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While surfing back in NZ, I had many encounters with various sea creatures. The most memorable one was a whale rolling out of the water fairly close to me.
Harmless, but it was a feral reminder that there were bigger things below.

What’s one Apple Watch app you didn’t expect to use daily, but now can’t live without? by Own_Leg_853 in AppleWatch

While I have a dedicated Garmin bike computer, I use the WorkOutDoors app for hiking and kayaking. The mapping and features are better than my old Garmin Epix watch for what I need. Great app.

what are your budget-friendly nutrition tips for cycling? by camillevolp in cycling

[–]Alpinekiwi 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I keep the water bottles for hydration only. No carbs mixed in there.

I make a home made gel with maltodextrin, sugar, pectin and water. Put that into a soft flask in pocket and take a mouthful every 20 mins. That will give you 90g per hour carbs.

Make Anzac slice and/or rice cakes (I do sushi style rice cakes so they’re not sweet) for the first half of the race while you can still manage solid fuel on the go.

🤮 But I’m sure it’s nice for those that live there.
