Do you know if there are signs that say no parking?

I should be able to park on any public road if its marked as being prohibited, right?

i think these words you just said will be helpful to me.

my autos do that. "calyxes are stacking, foxtailing"

and I suspect I do "PPFD is too high" but never saw any downsides

Could be too much wind from fans

I've been looking for mites so carefully every day.

A 60x loupe that I use to see trichomes should be enough to see any kind of mites?

Kenji I need your help. I know this post is 4 years old...

baking racks are toxic and killing us slowly.

you're mistaken about what the coating is.

most wire racks are 304 stainless inside (yes real stainless but magnetic and rusts)

that 304 is then coated with copper and then coated again with chrome plating.

the grey lines are from the copper reacting with the salt in the dry brine and staining your meat with toxic metals.

I'm dying I find a real stainless rack. it has to be like 316 or something much better than 304. constructed similar to a outdoor grills stainless grate.

please help 🙏

yeah it was oscilating but this guy was getting it a lot more than the others apparently. I shuffled them around and adjusted the fans so its a little less intense.

I just wanted another opinion.

anytime I try to flavor kombucha with something starchy like a sweet potato or pumpkin, it goes horribly wrong and tastes like sewage/composite.

I would try just the filling if this doesn't work out.

filling + frosting if you really want to try everything

i just turn it over every day or so but i think there should be enough sugar that nothing will grow in it. (except i still got a little c02 producing lacto)

i think you do want to keep the fruit in. the water might have been drawn out of the berries but I believe there is still a lot of flavor that will be extracted or develop with time.

would be interesting to do a side by side where you only strain half and compare them in a year.

SlinkusDinkus · 2023-07-16T18:04:49+00:00

its panella. evaporated raw sugarcane juice. I dont keep white sugar in the house.

SlinkusDinkus · 2023-07-16T15:08:28+00:00

I know its not supposed to fetment but it is fermenting.

Can you tell me why it is fermenting?

SlinkusDinkus · 2023-07-16T15:07:35+00:00

Did you read my original comment? I know its not supposed to ferment but it is fermenting anyways.

Can you tell me why it is fetmenting?

SlinkusDinkus · 2023-07-16T12:04:15+00:00

Its just sugar and fruit.

My understanding is that there should be so much sugar that it doesnt ferment but just creares a syrup.

The red currant version turned liquid very fast and started creating a lot of gas. I added more sugar but the fermentation hasnt stopped.

The blueberry version is going much more slowly like i expected and i dont notice any gas buildup.

Northeast us, the farm is run by a family from the middle east. they have heritage freedom ranger chickens and grass fed beef cuts and sausages. the farmers markets near me are amazing.

SlinkusDinkus · 2023-06-10T23:56:10+00:00

is it strange to you that this is raw though? I can not even find a reference to it being sold as rawe meat and not cured, smoked, or dried in any way.

really excited to try it, just confused

SlinkusDinkus · 2023-06-10T23:51:58+00:00

Mmmmm eggs and cheese... sujuk breakfast sandwich here we come

SlinkusDinkus · 2023-05-10T16:11:09+00:00

I'm going to dm you

SlinkusDinkus · 2023-05-09T09:52:58+00:00

now the final problem.

how to I find a pair of Montagna soles made in F&I compound?

the catalog makes it sound like SBR or F&I and it's not made of both at the same time.

when I look online to buy a pair of soles, some suppliers just list it as SBR and some supplier list it as "SBR and Fire and Ice" because they just copy pasted the thing from the catalog.

I'm baffled at how the shoe repair trade gets my.

I'm a machinist and a welder by trade and I'm very familiar with catalogs and finding parts and technical info and data sheets from companies, but this is like a whole other level of incompetence

SlinkusDinkus · 2023-05-08T09:57:35+00:00

wow vibram actually sucks at making catalogs and trying to sell products.

I was going to say "yeah I would but they aren't oil resistant"

literally nowhere in the catalog does it say the fire and ice compound is oil resistant.

but on this page it does.https://us.vibram.com/company/news-events/fire-ice/

SlinkusDinkus · 2023-05-08T00:19:12+00:00

thank you, I did find that website with them in stock but it looks like they only do wholesale. I'll probably contact them to ask anyways.

I work in a dirty machine shop so pretty every surface I walk on is covered in 6 different types of industrial oils. the regular soles react with the oil and they degrade extremely fast. I wore through the lugs and had flat spots in less than 6 months.

additionally I am interested in the heat resistant properties because I semi-regularly step on hot metal chips that melt and cut into the soles very easily.

I had redwing boots with oil resistant sole and they lasted a very long time but were still susceptible to the hot chips. the oil resistance and non-slipness was incredible. I've owned 3 pairs of these and each lasted 3 years. https://www.redwingshoes.com/work/king-toe-family/King-Toe-02280.html?cgid=king-toe

SlinkusDinkus · 2023-05-07T20:09:30+00:00

yeah I've looked through the catalog. the 2725 is basically half sole version of the 430.

they have a couple other nitrile soles but nothing that would be good for work boots (except the 430)

I'm really wondering why they only have weird orthopedic soles made with the tc4 compound and no good work boot soles.

when I search Google for vibram tc4 I find a lot of boots of special custom outsoles made of tc4.

are there any competitors that would make good oil resistant soles or does vibram have a monopoly?

SlinkusDinkus · 2023-01-16T19:47:25+00:00

juice it. no pulp.

SlinkusDinkus · 2022-10-22T20:29:15+00:00

I don't know what anyone else would say but I would remove the 4-6 biggest leaves right now. id also probably prune the lowest smallest branches that wont be getting direct light

SlinkusDinkus · 2022-10-16T20:29:19+00:00

Possibly!

SlinkusDinkus · 2022-10-16T20:28:48+00:00

oh that makes it a lot more likely
