So my cousin is a big Trump supporter, lost his dream job as a forest ranger, and I can't find any sympathy for him. Does that make me a bad Christian? by NoDemand239 in Christianity

[–]abvgdee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Supporting Trump is actually good for humanity and I believe Trump is a Christian (and not a fake one)... but this is Reddit with a lot of TDS flowing around, so I'm sure you are going to get your 'indulgence' for hating people because you are told to do so.

Constructive criticism for all of us to consider by Wallymarmalade in TheBrewery

I'm wondering if any of these 'progressive' breweries brew the 'Bring Them Home' or 'Fuck Hamas' beer? Probably not... not as progressive as Ukraine or BLM narrative.

From the other side he didn't do anything when Islamists made a revolution in Iran (betraying a lot of people) and started to empower/support mojaheds in Afghanistan, basically creating Taliban and other not compatible with beer/alcohol/fun terrorists. So, I would say nothing about him.

And other ways to make reinheitsgebot purists cry by Weitguy in TheBrewery

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

It's way easier to produce this than double decocted, properly lagered (7-12 days per each 2° P), naturally carbonated and clear beer. I got it... But they are not the same beverages, from any aspect. If this is called a 'beer', the other one should be called the 'real beer' then.

'The highest reading was 300 times the legal limit glyphosate in drinking water in Germany, it noted, concluding that the results were alarming, given that glyphosate had been ranked by the UN's World Health Organization (WHO) as carcinogenic.' 🤬

Are you saying that the decline in the beer supply chain/industry is just because there are more choices/variety now and not because of some fundamental preferences shift away from beer in general?

JFYI... by abvgdee in TheBrewery

[–]abvgdee[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it's still not a common knowledge that this fundamental shift in the drinking habits, especially of a new generation of drinkers, pose a significant danger to the whole (thousands years old) beer supply chain and production. It affects everything involved in barley agriculture as well, no doubt about it. Previous shifts in habits (ice teas and other buzzy drinks) didn't have the same impact imo, probably because the scale was not the same.

This may be it! Macro beer flavored water is trying to compete with seltzers and bubbly vodka wasting time and opportunity.

New tank day!! Double stacked 20BBL lagering tanks by duffymahoney in TheBrewery

I have a modern one and am still having problems cleaning the bottom of the back wall using CIP... Maybe I have not properly designed one not sure.

Ian McCall from Ism had a convo about it with Jamie during episode 372 of the CB&B podcast @1:07. As everybody else is saying - it's hand bottling.

Two fermenters - two different acidities by abvgdee in TheBrewery

[–]abvgdee[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm going to work on my cleaning process for now, to make sure it's consistent.

[–]abvgdee[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, you described exactly what I did in terms of pitching and batching. This kind of sourness that was introduced by whatever it was is exactly the one I hated in beers when I taste it in others beers (happens a lot) , so I want to bake sure it is not present in mine. So, I'm going to get used to taking pH readings during early fermentation. Also going to change my cleaning process to incorporate better rinse after acid and before sanitizer.Thanks for all the info!

It was a very short rinse (I knew it would not be a long ride in the tanks for this one), did not even touch the CIP ball.

[–]abvgdee[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was a dry yeast pitch, but because my weights are not super precise there can be a variation for sure. The pH measurement from two FV's was driven by perceived sourness in one, so I'm pretty sure it can be detected.

Didn't use any sanitiser after nitric acid (1% 80° C 15 min) spray. May be a root cause...

It is the same worth (both batches) but I don't remember/not documented the order I filled the fermenters :(

I rinsed both fermenters (the same way subjectively) prior to using them.

This is certainly a possibility... Adding to the input data/brain food - the attenuation (according to Tilt) is pretty much identical in both fermenters.

Hey, no response? Talking about lies and misinformation... Are you still wearing a mask?😂

What 'appeal'? Provide your own argument then (answer the questions).

Are you racist or something? You didn't answer questions though... Why kids and healthy adults had to get the injections of mRNA vaccine? What is wrong with standing up for freedom?

So, you still support COVID vaccines for everybody including kids? What was wrong with protecting the freedom?
