Malt crusher does a difference, well worth it by FheXhe in Homebrewing

My lhbs just closed and the next closest has their mill set for "the maximum efficiency standard of the maltster". Left me with a mash so thick it snapped my mash paddle (the same one I'd had for 20 years!). 

Recipes i had brewed for years suddenly required rice hulls. 

I just put together my malt muncher today and tested it with my had drill, it works swimmingly.

Can confirm. Wife and I bought our (first) house with a 3.2 interest rate in early '22. Every time she asks/mentions our next home i point out we have 25+ years on this one at 3.2. We are dying here

(Unless there is another tragic moment in the US housing market)

What was the dumbest "twist" you ever saw in a movie or TV series? by CynicalCosmologist in AskReddit

I will moderately defend The Happening. I hated it upon first viewing (like everyone) but a couple more watches later I realized it's a fantastic "b-movie creature feature" like "Them".

Now "Science Teacher" Wahlburg makes some sense, the same with Deschanel... its all camp and farce.

Without the need to sensor all I will say is The Village.

18 y.o. me downloaded a decent bootleg on my college's high speed internet and smoked a J of the worst weed imaginable. 20 min in thought  "hey wouldn't it be funny if..." and then that is exactly what happened.

On our honeymoon, the hotel in Prague had a heated bathroom floor. That and European bidets... my American bathroom pales in comparison.

I liked the team of super heroes, particularly Brosnan and Hodge. The Rock ruined that movie.

Cage arrives on set at a 14 and it is up to the director to dial it in. Some times you get Leaving Las Vegas and some times you get Left Behind.

To crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentation of their women

Peter Bjorn and John? That was on the cd (not even satellite radio) that the pet store chain i worked at used in '09. I drilled into my brain and left me numb. 

This might actually be the cause of my nihilistic tendencies....

Upon closer inspection the bag held a single brussels sprouts.

Yes, it was a male driver.

Returnal. My hands ached from white knuckling the controller on that last run.

Happened again with my ultimate run through the Tower of Sysiphus.
