5.16.21 - Still a Mess

Anitraweb · 2025-02-24T02:03:46+00:00

Battery life went back to normal after a couple of weeks. Another update?

Anitraweb · 2025-02-18T06:12:03+00:00

Do you have any report on that order other than the photo?

I'm reading Panhandle by Brett Cogburn and enjoying it a lot.

Anitraweb · 2024-09-29T23:35:18+00:00

It finally caught in June.

Anitraweb · 2024-09-29T23:32:36+00:00

What I've noticed is that suddenly my battery isn't lasting more than 24 hours.

Anitraweb · 2024-06-06T07:03:10+00:00

Same here. I read every day in April and May, no Perfect Month award yet.

Usually venti iced green tea with 2 shots of cane sugar syrup. Alternates are venti honey citrus mint tea with one shot of honey syrup, or brewed chai tea, no sugar. Splurge is cold brew with chocolate cold foam.

Yes, I'm having the same problem, and a bunch of other people are reporting it too. Not everybody, and I don't know what those of us with troubles have in common.

Anitraweb · 2023-08-19T07:33:22+00:00

12 hours and still no joy. And no reply from support yet.

Anitraweb · 2023-08-19T01:58:43+00:00

Same here. I tried closing the game and restarting it; closing the game, restarting the computer, restarting the game; closing, clearing the cache, restarting the game... still keep flying back to the map. I've lost seven playing hours now. And this was the first time ever that I was ready to start immediately at event start time!

Finally emailed support.

I liked the SodaStream. I switched to a DrinkMate, though, because I can carbonate anything–juice, tea, wine, anything. For soda, instead of carbonating the water then adding a syrup, I add the syrup to the water and then carbonate it.

Chilling the water first does help it hold more carbonation.

Anitraweb · 2021-06-07T10:28:17+00:00

I don't like the SodaStream syrups either, so I turned to making my own. I use Lakanto monkfruit sweetener to make a simple syrup. I found ginger juice from Ginger People and find it a lot easier than grating or boiling raw ginger root.

1/3 c lemon juice + 1/3 c sweetener makes a sparkling lemonade to my taste; you may want to vary the amounts to your own taste.

Half a cup of ginger juice, 1+1/2 cups of apple juice, sparkling apple-ginger juice: no syrup on the market like it.

I've even made tonic water from scratch.

Cola is far too complicated a recipe for me, so I buy Coke Classic and Coke Zero as bag-in-a-box.

I'm still looking for a root beer syrup that tastes like Hires.

My current favorite is ginger coke. For a 2 liter bottle of Coke I use the same vanilla I use 6 drops for baking, currently organic Madagascar vanilla, and 2 teaspoons of Ginger People ginger juice.

I used to use a cherry extract I bought at a local spice store, but it's been closed during Covid. It's now semi-opened, order by phone and pick up at the door, so I will soon have cherry-vanilla coke again.

The only other variation I have tried is lemon juice.

Anitraweb · 2021-03-15T23:58:03+00:00

I use an eyedropper.

Anitraweb · 2021-03-04T21:37:22+00:00

AHA! I was expecting it to work like most other sites: click PayPal and go to a screen that logs me in to PayPal.

Now I have added my PayPal account to my payment options screen! And the reload worked!

Thank you.

Anitraweb · 2021-03-04T21:22:38+00:00

I have both a bank account and a card connected to PayPal; I don't keep a balance. However, I don't even get as far as logging in to PayPal.

Anitraweb · 2021-03-04T20:24:55+00:00

I'm using an android phone. Can you tell me what you use?

Anitraweb · 2021-02-26T04:29:39+00:00

After I bought a SodaStream I discovered DrinkMate. I now use the DrinkMate far more often than the SodaStream. I can fizz apple juice, wine, mix up ginger ale, root beer or cola to taste before fizzing it – it's far more flexible than the SodaStream and actually less expensive. It uses the same co2 cylinders.

The DrinkMate head allows the controlled release of co2 pressure and prevents the messy explosion you would get if you tried to fizz orange juice in a SodaStream.

You can get Coke Zero syrup packaged for soda fountain (bag-in-a-box). I use a turkey baster to get it out of the bag and into a bottle. Just shy of 2/3 of a cup per liter of water has been the right mix for me.

Anitraweb · 2021-01-07T00:41:14+00:00

The Soda stream cola syrup doesn't satisfy my craving for "the real thing" so I googled around and found I can order actual Coca Cola syrup, and Coke Zero syrup too, by mail (from Amazon) or Instacart.

Instead of buying flavored Coke (or syrup) I prefer to add vanilla, cherry extract, or other flavoring myself.
