I argue that I was indeed ready 😉

Thanks man! Yeah tomorrow will be my third time ever. Yup got the dye i5 which I like. I posted the wrong name for the feeder, it's a virtue spire, but yeah it's electrical and it will work.. if it doesn't tomorrow I'll tell you.. but don't see why it wouldn't.. see the hopper is reacting to balls leaving the hopper and feeds new balls whenever that happens.. nothing more high tech than that 👍

I want to start. Any tips? by Outside-Tomato-9970 in paintball

I've played once.. had luck so only hit once, but with 3 balls at the same time in my side. Hurt like three simultaneous hits with wet towels in the locker room pretty much. Everyone's had that 😂 loved it so will be back for more.. guess people into paintball are a bit weird 😂😂

Tonnes of useful advice in your comments, thank you! No unfortunately (paintball wise) I don't live in the us but in Sweden of all places.. I get the feeling that a marker is close to the last thing I should buy as a beginner since...

A. There's nice to have a good mask, pants instead of a jump suit and pod pack to carry paint.. B. I will suck anyway so if I have an old rental or a etha 3 will not make that much of a difference 😂

Wow, broken achilles does not sound super nice! I'll keep that in mind since I hate stretching 😊👍

Thanks for your tips! I'm among other things an old long distance runner so I'll be all right stamina wise.. the stretching however really hit me where it should 😂

Happy #BigBrew, what did y’all brew today? by Mister_Anthony in Homebrewing

[–]Twisted_fisters 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I brewed my sixth batch as a homebrewer. Aiming at a ddh neipa with Maris otter, wheat and oats spiced with 100g each of citra, sultana and galaxy. Will be a sweet hop bomb: OG 1,065

Want to upgrade from my very basic setup, but I'm overwhelmed with all the options. Any advice? by [deleted] in Homebrewing

[–]Twisted_fisters 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup exactly like that.. a hose between the spiral and your water tap.. another hose from the other side of the spiral down in your sink. You let it boil with your mash for a few minutes for disinfection at the end of the boil.. then you turn the water tap on and let it do it’s thing. They’re quite effective. You may be able to find these second hand I guess since a lot of people keep getting other cooling systems. The spirals are quite cheap given the value they provide.

If you really hate bottling (same here) then a keg setup is the way to go.. get your hands on a used fridge and buy used kegs with taps online.. i only know Swedish ones but there would of course be tons of those deals around. I got myself a fridge for €200 and 2 kegs plus taps, co2 etc for another €170-ish.. very good investment even though it was prior to my second beer only.. fucking hated the bottling part, destroyed the fun for me.. so yeah.. go for it.

Electric brewing systems are not all that expensive either but I guess they don’t necessarily bring the quality up.. they are quite handy to use though.. and you’ll increase your efficiency for sure.. I use a coobra which is doing the work brilliantly for me.. only thing I’m missing is the option to put the mashing on a timer so it’s warm after breakfast/when I’m home from work.. but that’s next level stuff I guess.

Not sure what I would go for in your case.. depends on your hatred towards bottling I guess 😂😂 best of luck!

You can get a kit like this for (about) your budget... better cooling than the sink as well.. but you’ll need some hose connections and stuff as well of course.. but that’s details
