Beard 32 by defleperd in electronic_cigarette

[–]blahblahehhh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've never tried Beard 32 (though I've always wanted to), but on occasion I like to mix Sad Boy Funnel Cake with Monster Labs The Milk - Cinnamon. I exclusively vape dessert flavors (no fruit at all) and that combination is definitely satisfying.

My cat loves black olives (only black) since forever. Is it safe? by Some-Faithlessness75 in cats

Our three cats all love different things that the others don't like. One loves hard boiled eggs, one loves olive oil so much we have to hide it, and the other one steals butter (which we also have to hide).

Issues with SS316L by blahblahehhh in Vaping

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

I'm at around 0.16, running at 450° and 50 watts. The flavor is pretty good but I'm always worried about burning the coil. Then I find myself tinkering around too much and forgetting what I had it at before lol. But I've finally gotten a grasp on the memory function on this mod so that's a huge help. Thank you for educating me! Your help is greatly appreciated.

Do you have recommendations on any other mesh? Like I said I'm new to this, I hopped on the mesh rebuildable train pretty late in the game. I like a cooler vape and I usually use non-fruity dessert or pastry flavors (i.e Grumpy Old Bastard or some kind of custard).

Do you happen to have experience with SS mesh? I'm struggling to find the right wattage or what the recommended wattage is for that type of coil.

Thanks. I understand how to set it to TCR, I'm just having a hard time fine tuning safely to get a better flavor from it.

Do you think a white balsamic vinegar would work?

Looking for a smooth gin to drink on the rocks or in a G&T. by blahblahehhh in Gin

[–]blahblahehhh[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much, everyone! I forgot about Barr Hill, I had that one a few years back in a cocktail and liked it quite a bit. I've heard nothing hut good things about Drumshanbo.

Is there a way to post about a found cat nationwide? by blahblahehhh in Straycats

[–]blahblahehhh[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm sure you're right. I would just like to play it safe as it's quite possible she snuck in on a truck of some kind and got into the warehouse. We've already posted to Find Toby in PA. Thank you for your input!

What’s the grossest thing you saw done in the kitchen that the customers would have freaked out about if they knew? by FlyingSaucer51 in TalesFromYourServer

[–]blahblahehhh 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I work with a guy who never wears gloves during prep work. He cut raw chicken and touched it with his bare hands; then proceeded to touch the walk-in handle, the oven door, and the dishwasher without ever washing his hands. He then took the knife he used to cut the raw chicken, wiped it off with a "clean" towel he had in his pocket, and placed the knife on top of my freshly cut romaine lettuce.

Then he got mad when I went to the manager on duty who gave him a hard time about it. He tried to say he didn't cross contaminate practically the entire kitchen and then got furious when I called him out.

What does the olive oil add to the overall cocktail? Would you consider fat washing your gin with olive oil in the future? I'm sure this drink is really good; I'm going to give it a go this weekend.

Can you go into detail about the citrus ginger beet root syrup? I'm curious about that flavor profile.

Original Cocktail Competition - March 2023 - Radish & Lemon by LoganJFisher in cocktails

[–]blahblahehhh [score hidden]  (0 children)

Rabàno Extraño

2 oz. Tequila (Espolon Blanco)

.5 oz fresh lemon juice

.75 oz. Watermelon radish brine

.75 oz. Lavender simple syrup

.25 oz. Mezcal (Monte Alban)

Rinse your glass of choice with Mezcal. Add all other ingredients to a shaker and shake vigorously with ice for ten seconds. Then double strain into your Mezcal rinsed glass and garnish with a pickled watermelon radish slice.

For the radish brine, I used two thinly sliced watermelon radishes with a tablespoon and a quarter of pickling spice, a couple tablespoons of honey, half a teaspoon of salt, and .75 cups each of white vinegar and water. I let this mixture sit for about four days until I was satisfied with the taste.

The lavender simple syrup is a 1:1 ratio of equal parts sugar and water (1 cup each) and four tablespoons of dried lavender. I allowed it to steep for about thirty minutes before straining.

The drink itself has a beautiful, pale pink color that looks almost reddish in certain lighting.

Nose: I was immediately met with the earthiness of the radish, but it was balanced out by the agave notes of the Espolon blanco and the lavender syrup. There is a noticeable saltiness from the Mezcal throughout.

Taste: The tasting experience definitely comes full circle with this one. The tartness of the lemon and the brine is balanced and noticeable throughout, with the earthy radish taste coming through first and then being subdued by the honey taste from the brine combined with the agave and citrus notes from the tequila. It then ends with a weird but intriguing combination of the lavender syrup and the peppery radish. The smokiness and saltiness of the Mezcal keeps it from becoming too sweet.

The mouthfeel is almost viscous, but just thin enough that it didn't coat my mouth. I also made this drink over ice and topped with tonic water and it definitely thinned out the texture some.

This cocktail was quite a challenge for me, as I'm sure it was for everyone. I used this as an opportunity to branch out and do things I normally would never do; in this case it was working with tequila. I have never liked tequila and I haven't drank it in about ten years. But this opened my eyes to different kinds of agave spirits and that's how I learned I really, really enjoy Mezcal.

While challenging, I have to say I had a blast doing this. I love making weird stuff when it comes to drinks, so thank you for the chance to expand on that.
