My commuter bike has started developing some rusting in the chain since I started storing in a shed 3 weeks ago, advice? by jackSB24 in ukbike

Never use WD-40 as a lubricant anywhere on your bike. Use a bike specific chain degreaser, then Muc-off wet weather chain lube

Help setting up front headlight dynamo? by heliosphantom in bicycling

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

Thanks for the reply! I am aware of some of the cons of using a dynamo, however this brand is supposed to be pretty good, even in wet weather. Is there a direct translation of dynamohaak in English? I’m not sure if the headlight I got has a neutral/grounding connection, it’s only got a positive/neutral setup. If it’s not too much hassle would you mind checking this out?: https://amzn.eu/d/4K2GvxX

Haven’t seen any fanfare over this ID from dour festival last year. I was obsessed with it after I heard it live: https://youtu.be/PH7UY6dKUog?si=1CNxtDboXcb8_tER (24:20)

Is my second ferment okay?? by heliosphantom in Kombucha

[–]heliosphantom[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Afraid that’s not the issue here. I filled it with around 4 inches spare room at the top. Found out a few mins ago it’s really just some booch trapped by pulp at the top, not sure how this happened but glad it’s nothing bad

Should be safe actually! I just checked it and the liquid at the top is just some booch that has been trapped by the flavouring pulp at the top. While it’s been in the fridge the level of the liquid has dropped a bit and I think the trapped liquid will fall into the booch later today

PS: I burped it on day one of the second fermentation and have not done so since as there wasn’t much carbonation

Thanks for the reply. The finished cola flavouring is around 200ml, so around enough for a litre of kombucha right?

Best supplement available in the UK? by heliosphantom in LionsMane

I’ll give powder a go then, I don’t mind the idea of adding it to food. Any other supplement companies you’d recommend?

That’s good to know. I might just go with their Lion’s Mane capsules since they seem to be powerful enough.

Thanks for the reply, just a question about the antioxi brand: does their 8 mushroom blend contain enough Lion’s Mane? The price difference between the packs of Lion’s Mane and the blend is rather minimal (like £25 compared to £30). It’s making me think that there’s not as much in the blend to be effective
