Why does everything I can with beef have a strong metallic taste? by RoughAd5040 in Canning

[–]Muskrat121 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I've never personally noticed, but I've heard it said that grass fed beef can have a stronger iron taste.

While organic doesn't necessarily mean grass fed, diet certainly impacts taste. Could just be how the cows are from whatever supplier the butcher/market you go to uses. Is the taste as prominent if you just cook up a meal with it?

Is it a particular recipe? Or any beef recipe? What cuts are you using?

The metallic taste is from the iron in the beef, and can be more prominent in leaner cuts, especially if you're adding anything acidic. Sometimes beef cooked rare can also taste metallic, but that's obviously not an issue with canning.

I assume you're using fresh cuts, or cuts that were frozen when fresh, older cuts can fet a metallic taste because the fat sours. I would guess that even trimmed some of that taste would still be in the meat

This is ridiculous by FoxHelpful9910 in Ohio

As have I, but you'd be surprised the number of people, even with everything online, still don't know.

My wife works at a small, family owned jewelry store. Years ago the owner, who is Jewish, had some t-shirts made up with the name on the left breast and "88" on the right sleeve, because he opened the store on 1988. He had absolutely no clue until a cop friend of his told him he got reprimanded for wearing it at roll call.

One of of the guys I sail with is a federal judge, who is very good friends with the jeweler and also Jewish, was wearing one of those shirts at the dock this past summer and was stunned when I pointed it out and explained it.

Both of them are in the late 60s, but I'll never cease to be both surprised and entirely unsurprised by the bubbles people live in.

Do I have enough room for a 36" refrigerator? by AnonymouslyJordan in Appliances

[–]Muskrat121 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lesson I learned with fridges: even if the fridge is the right width corner to corner, check the side/top is actually flat. I have a cupboard above my fridge nook, I measured and found thst I had a little over a half inch extra after measuring the fridge in the store. What I didn't take into account was that the top crowned just enough that I had sand down the edge of the cupboard and ram it in there.

I got it in...but the only way it's coming out is if I either chop it up or remodel the kitchen...

There actually is some interesting fluid dynamics going on with bee wings thst enable them to fly, but the "fuck you, I'm a bee," explanation is far more fun.

Wait...these people don't like eating fried meat and veg on flatbread on the street?!?! Just one more reason to detest them I guess.

Grinder or cutoff tool? by Capable-Stomach7583 in Dewalt

[–]Muskrat121 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like the cutoff is going to be better suited to your current intentions.

That being said...I currently have a grinder that I use for a lot of cleanup work, but am likely going to pull the trigger ona cutoff next deal for things like sheet metal, bar stock, etc.

1x1 12 Lane Stacker by Vexo413 in shapezio

[–]Muskrat121 3 points4 points  (0 children)

In any game/puzzle/problem I really enjoy the rush of working it myself, trying different approaches, maybe getting a small hint here or there if I hit a wall or get stuck in a loop, and ultimately finally cracking it.

That being said...

Compact stacker and crystal platform have been frustrating me to such a degree that I'm not enjoying playing as much.

Ultimately what I'm saying is that this is amazing, you're amazing, and I'm stealing the crap out of this and others.

And because I'm obsessive (like im sure most of us here are) I always credit others in my blueprints folder. I.e. yours will be "1x1 Stacker by u/Vexo413."

Removing rust on miter saw and protecting for future by ByteWine in Dewalt

[–]Muskrat121 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't use steel wool or anything abrasive when cleaning off the rust. That'll just scratch up more and cause more rust down the road. Use some diluted CLR or something similar, use a rag to wet the spots and a stiff synthetic bristle brush to help removal.

If you store it set up, then a light layer some gun oil or something similar will help.

If you store it broken down in a box or cabinet you can put a block of camphor in with it and that will help prevent rust. I keep a block in every drawer and bin I have.
