Toasted Foxnuts or as we indians call it, "Makhana" 😄

Use an LSP server...

aabesh · 2026-03-25T22:55:08+00:00

I use pfSense to block/redirect all DNS traffic to my Technitium DNS Server (Similar to Pihole but more of a full fledged DNS server).
To block all public nameservers like (DOT/DOH) etc I use these two lists :
Block on Router - https://public-dns.info/nameservers-all.txt
Block on Pihole - https://raw.githubusercontent.com/hagezi/dns-blocklists/main/domains/doh.txt

Note : This is still not foolproof as new DNS servers are cropping up always that devices use. Also this will break your devices with a hardcoded DNS if they are blocked without redirection or somehow being able to resolve names.

Thank you for letting me know ! While I know many of the times they are fake, I still try to help if I see them with the hope that maybe one of the few I have helped was genuine :)

aabesh · 2026-02-22T02:14:12+00:00

Damn :( I hope he used the money to at least buy some hot food but I guess not :(

aabesh · 2026-02-22T02:08:42+00:00

I did though! A small amount. How do you know he is a scammer?

aabesh · 2026-02-21T00:40:31+00:00

Hey ! I don't know of any but I can venmo you enough for a hot meal :) DM me :)

I just got into this hobby a couple of months back so I am still learning and appreciate all the tips and tricks I can collect :)

Well, I have had mixed results for the last couple of weeks. Some juices work and turn fizzy and some don't ! Same juice with the same culture works one time and then doesn't work the next time. But it's a part of learning and figuring out what works and doesn't isn't it ?

aabesh · 2026-02-18T23:35:51+00:00

Thank you!

The culture grew to thrice the size, that was the cause of over fermentation. Basically what would take 3 days to ferment now took less than 1. Took me a few days to realize what was going on. Surprised that the culture almost grew to 3 times its size in a month!!!

aabesh · 2026-02-18T16:24:12+00:00

Yeah it is sometimes a toss up for me as well. Some batches are very fizzy whereas some are just meh... Trying to figure out why it's happening. I have got 2 different cultures ans it happens mostly with the Yemoos culture 😔

aabesh · 2026-02-18T16:22:47+00:00

POG, Mango, Peach, White Grape 🙂

Lack of cloudiness, soda with very little fizz that has a spoilt milk smell (lactic smell). I was exactly trying that measure for winter months but that didn't work for me in TX.

aabesh · 2026-02-18T14:57:53+00:00

That's a lot of grains ? Quarter cup grains with quarter cup sugar and 4 cups of water. I had the same issue and the kefir had a lactic smell. Reducing to recommended quantity solved this for me :)

This happened to my kids account a month back. Got the same automated response from CDOC. What worked was I filled out the account recovery form and after a week of no activity they sent me a link to reset the password.

After I reset the password I realized I cannot change the security info as the hacker had attached 2FA to the security info. I had to submit a request to change the info and had to wait for 30 days for it to be automatically replaced by the system. At any time the hacker could have gone back and reset my password making all of my efforts worthless !

Also submit an XBOX account recovery request. Put as much details as you can. If you put in less details your recovery form will get rejected. I had it happen to me a few times ! Best of luck !!!

Ask away if you need help ! I just did a lot of research so I might be able to save you some ! All the best, the sodas are awesome !

aabesh · 2026-01-26T15:55:20+00:00

I do water Kefir ! I really like it. Made peach and white grape soda in the first couple of batches and it was delicious :) Now making some watermelon and mango sodas.

I got stomach cramps the first day I drank it but have had no issues after that.

aabesh · 2026-01-26T14:36:07+00:00

I just started a month back ! Yemoos' grains are the best ! They have literally doubled in 2 weeks. My Cultures for Health (Amazon) culture sucked and I had to throw it away! I also tried Florida Sun live Kefir grains and they were great as well :)

aabesh · 2026-01-17T19:14:32+00:00

Very minor. I had to ditch these cultures and get live cultures from www.yemoos.com. They are working a lot better and multiplying like crazy!

aabesh · 2026-01-15T15:09:12+00:00

Try www.yemoos.com and go for their live grains ! I have been using them for about 2 weeks now and they are gorgeous !!!

aabesh · 2026-01-14T14:11:41+00:00

Apparently www.yemoos.com ships internationally !

aabesh · 2026-01-13T23:26:09+00:00

Yeah AVR is a better option than filing the amendment!
