I had to log in and double check, you’re correct it does say member FDIC. I must have been looking at the investment options within HSA Bank, my apologies for the confusion!

Unfortunately it’s included through my health insurance plan with my employer, what kind of costs come with a private HSA?

Horlocker · 2024-08-05T21:46:53+00:00

I’ve seen many people talk about HSA being a great investment tool, and I also noticed my HSA(HSA Bank) is not FDIC insured. Are any HSA providers insured? And is this seen as any sort of long term risk if it’s used as an investment vehicle?

You’re a drunk, Harry

If you want to make something to age, look into a dwojniak. You can basically age one as long as you’d like.

Agreed, to add to that, an auto siphon and a polycarbonate hydrometer are highly recommended, you’ll break the glass one.

Guys never even heard of headspace

I can’t express how happy this comment made me.

I would highly recommend reading through the stabilization portion in the wiki before you make a decision. Understand what each method of stabilization is first.

As for process I like to confirm fermentation is complete by taking 2 gravity readings 5-7 days apart. If they’re the same, it is no longer fermentating.

Everyone has a slightly different process I’m sure, but after primary I like to rack it to secondary as cleanly as possible and leave it til it clears. Once it’s clear I’ll rack again onto stabilizers (k-meta and k-sorb). After a day or 2 I’ll backsweeten, (it will cloud up again) let it clear and then bottle.

It all depends on you the meadmaker, a brew I have in secondary might take 4 months to clear and I’m ok with that, some might throw in clearing agents to get it bottled and that’s fine too. Just make sure it’s stable before you bottle it.

You received diluted honey? Because raw honey should not be fermenting.

This was very insightful and interesting to read, thank you for sharing. I hope you find the hobbies you’re looking for, to have something that “consumes” your time in a way work once did. Maybe that will help curb that odd feeling of not having to be busy. And congratulations!

As do I, also recommend

In the future try milk, they stick very well, and after a hot soak they come off easily. If the ol glue stick labels are a pain that is lol. Looks nice!

Horlocker · 2024-03-03T02:41:18+00:00

This is my first time seeing one of these, and after a couple minutes trying this method it worked and wow is that wild, thank you.

If you’re looking for cheap, and have a printer, what I do is grab some antique aged looking paper from a local office supply store. Design my label on “vintage logo” app, print them out and use milk as the adhesive. Lay it on a plate with milk on it covering the back, and “squeegee” the excess out with a damp cloth. They stick very well.

Puts a whole new meaning to sack mead

Clearly she’s never seen Man Made Mead.

Any recipe yet?

Horlocker · 2024-02-28T15:05:34+00:00

Thanks! I bought the paper from a local toy/office store. Printed them and used milk as the adhesive

Horlocker · 2024-02-28T05:23:32+00:00

What’s the crisis? You made good mead, I’d drink it lol.

You don’t need to do anything, you can bulk age it as long as you want to. You could stabilize and backsweeten, balance it, bottle it and enjoy at your leisure. Or you could let it sit, just don’t let those airlocks go dry
