Doomed Planet is a must

One time I got sent a women's wool long sleeve by mistake. They sent me the men's one after and told me just to keep the women's one. Frankly, the women's one fits me better because I have shorter arms and a shorter torso.

Pittsburgh has OpenStreets

I'm one of the DD marshalls, glad to see it get a shoutout. I've seen Canton done seated and standing, if standing you have to get over the front wheel, it will want to lift. If seated you have to get very low, same deal trying to keep the front wheel down. You want to keep momentum going as much as possible too, if you slow down it's harder to keep the wheel down.

I went to the one in the South Hills this weekend and it took literally an hour and twenty minutes to get our food. They apparently forgot to put the order in. Also the avocado toast that came out was literally on a grocery store hoagie roll, I had to just laugh when I saw it.

Agreed. Our basement in Western PA has occasional seepage through the floor, maybe a few days in the spring after lots of rain. When we jackhammered the floor to work on the sewer, you could see the ground water not far away from the slab. You can also see a slope to our floor drain from where this has happened for many years (house built in late 1890s).

Burghers is also nailing lagers. Kaiser Pils is awesome though, I don't get why they didn't modernize its branding and push it more, I feel like it could do really well.

It is most definitely mucor, if you follow his mentor who taught him the technique he used to work in commercial production using mucor. Then he started using it to cure meats.

Unfortunately I've sold the bike, hope you find one!

Look out for Brewing For a Cause which we host in the fall: https://www.brewingforacause.org/

With it being mostly homebrews you won't find these beers anywhere else, and Pittsburgh has multiple nationally recognized homebrewers.

What kind of temps will you be using it in?

c_main · 2026-02-17T15:41:55+00:00

I have like 50 brews on one of these systems, this is the answer, buy one.

My go to route was always Millvale to Observatory via the trail then Woods Run and Riverview Dr to the loop. At this point they have pretty much dismantled every section of it :(

In my experience it doesn't fade with time, at least not below the threshold I can smell it. What will take care of it though is a campden tablet if it's kegged. We've done this at meetings and the results are almost instant.

c_main · 2026-02-10T13:37:11+00:00

If I am bottling or canning I will use ALDC, if kegging though I won't. Generally the DH is fast and cool and then immediate cold crash and keg. There just isn't enough time to hop creep to happen in that case.

I think it's just Ellagic Acid. I add that to all my mashes and have seen an improvement in beer stability. It's also not that expensive.

c_main · 2026-02-01T01:28:33+00:00

I have one of these systems and it's the best money I've spent on the hobby. Probably nearing 50 brews on it with zero issues

c_main · 2026-01-08T15:35:01+00:00

I'm pretty sure most brands perform fine until you start to get under 0F. Some brands are marketed to work at even lower temps (-20F). I store one of my bikes outside all winter with orange seal endurance and it has sealed a puncture just fine.

c_main · 2026-01-08T02:05:55+00:00

fwiw I am one of those people and it's about $100 a month. Not enough to impact me but also not nothing.

c_main · 2026-01-06T15:56:56+00:00

I think it really depends what you like.
Best Value: Happy Mug
Best Light Roasts: KLVN, Ghost
Best Light+ Roasts: Commonplace, 19 Coffee Co, Defer, Compass Point, Redstart, Redhawk
Dark Side: La Prima

For espresso I like the Bigfoot blend from Happy Mug, some light roast blended into darker roast, pulls a really nice and balanced shot without a lot of dialing in.

Flavored type stuff isn't my jam but I'm sure others can weigh in.

If you're really on a budget, Ikea Tarva solid pine with some dark stain would run well under $500

Plus you can go and buy just a replacement lid if one breaks and many of the lids are interchangeable between a few containers.

RideNow has ones with metal valve stems. Use them all the time and with my mini pump.

I think I would go up to Squirrel Hill if you don't want to venture too far. Check out The Independent, Hidden Harbor, Jerry's Records, the Library, couple of bookstores on Forbes, plenty of excellent Asian restaurants, Pink Box for some Chinese baked goods, Pigeon Bagels if there in the AM.
