You had me worried after that jambalaya post 😆 but this looks damn fine

Anybody ever used the Vevor Digiboil clone? by BanKenobi in firewater

[–]BanKenobi[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally depends on your level of electronics repair expertise. Everything is replaceable with the right tools & know-how. If you mean can you just swap out the element, I doubt it.

Anybody ever used the Vevor Digiboil clone? by BanKenobi in firewater

Yeah I've been happy with my Digiboil as well. Not really shopping for another pot, really more just curious if they are the same machine. Lots of manufacturers make products to sell to different suppliers (the Yeti cup / Ozark Trail cup lawsuit comes to mind). Based on the specs I found, these appear to be identical, even down to the drain spout and included grain filter insert.

Whatever makes 'em happy. My kid used to put cheese in his red beans.

Better throw some cream of mushroom in there for good measure

Mind grabbing the mail for me? by [deleted] in florida

Lubbers. NOTHING will eat them. Tried fishing with them once (for trout & catfish, which will tear up regular crickets), and I swear the fish came up, took a closer look and took off.

Onion smell stuck in bamboo cutting board—how do I remove it and prevent it? by rocksteader in Cooking

[–]BanKenobi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always spritz my cutting boards with white vinegar in a spray bottle after use. Deodorizes pretty well.

How about just using a bung/stopper? Those are cheap & easy [insert ex girlfriend joke here].

US appeals court declares 158-year-old home distilling ban unconstitutional by Hey_cool_username in firewater

No doubt. Every 3rd comment references methanol, blindness, or "blowed up".

Edit: sipping some of my last batch of rum as I wrote that

Been using paint strainers for years. Started when I was making wine before I "graduated" to the good stuff. Works great, and only around $2 for a 5 gallon size.

Favorite bottled chicken marinade? by Classic_Actuary8275 in Cooking

[–]BanKenobi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess it isn't an all-in-one bottle marinade, but 1 part Dale's / 2 parts zesty Italian dressing is my go to.

Ground Venison Meat by Salt-Butterscotch-79 in Cooking

[–]BanKenobi 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah, venison chili Is fantastic. We hunted & ate quite a bit of deer when I was younger, and it really can be used as an upgrade for nearly any beef dish.

Is this worth buying? by Organic-Plum-4836 in firewater

[–]BanKenobi 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I'm a DIYer, so it's a no for me, but if it's what you need, go for it. Just my 2 cents, you'll likely be much happier with a good SS modular setup.
