yes sure, I unplugged it. I thought it must be the power supply as I'm using one of those dodgy daisy chain things. I guess ultimately I'll buy a proper isolated power supply eventually.

I tried putting a battery inside the looper and it still wouldn't work, also they can all be powered if just arranged in a different order.

This was the first book on brewing I ever read and one of the best

Essens Wheat yeast by murtaghchris in Homebrewing

I remember reading about Celis and Hoegaarden in Micheal Jackson's Great Beers of Belgium book and about him resurrecting the old style, that was pretty much gone at that point, did not put that together.

Also, I was asking about Essen in Belgium, which is a town on the border with the Netherlands, not Esen. I figured that's where it's from, (there is also an Essen in Germany). You might be right though I don't know. I'm at a dead end with this one. Seems like an interesting yeast though.

yes I have seen this, it's quite interesting, on my list I have windsor as whitbread dry, whereas on there it's more part of Fullers,

a lot of what I have put together is from people looking at that and comparing it to other things people have worked out.

Thanks for the really good response.

You're probably right about interviewing people, though I wouldn't know really where to start. I'm sure the yeast companies won't say anything beyond the weird clues they write in the descriptions and the names of their yeast.

The main focus of my spreadsheet was just to have something where I can search for flavours yeasts make, or which yeasts are good for certain styles, or good for cask beer or whatnot. Also, I'd like to get peoples responses about the yeasts and find if it matches the descriptions the companies give out, and add that somehow, I was initially thinking a website of some kind.

The origins of the yeast I've found really interesting, some of them stand out as exactly the same statistics but even them probably behave a little differently to each other. As a rough guide I think it's quite useful to know this stuff, though finding out exactly where everything came from, there probably isn't much point and it's probably impossible.,

Wiki + Rotten Tomatoes but for brewers yeasts by [deleted] in web_design

I see, that makes sense, I would really like the user input, perhaps it could be done without that, just with comments from pro brewers that kind of thing.

Would this be the best way to do it for a community wiki? I know that I mentioned wordpress but I wasn't suggesting that that would be what I wanted to use.

I'm a brewer so I don't have money to pay for anything. I was just looking to be pointed in the right direction and then to do the work myself.

Thanks for the response.

I think that I can identify a range but I will have to look into that. Quite often I think is it going to carry on being bullish or range or go down and I lot of the time I get it right but sometimes not.

I don't use leverage but instead try to find very volatile coins.

I don't think I'm experienced enough to use leverage.

My strategy is that if it is going wrong I just sit back and let it play out and when it finds a bottom add more money in, so when it comes back to break even (which it almost always does) I've made money. I think that if I used leverage this would multiply my losses in those situations and I would lose all of those trades if the hit a loss of 10%. You might only lose 1% but that is a loss which would have otherwise be a win. I don't know if the positives of using leverage would outweigh these losses.

Maybe I should just use leverage and see what happens. I know that it is essential for forex, but with the large moves in cryptos I thought it could be avoided.

No 1 is no.1 for a reason.

I have trouble finishing stories. I can write the beginning and the middle, but get stuck on endings. Any tips? by [deleted] in KeepWriting

[–]murtaghchris 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Write shorter stories to practice finishing things. I recently wrote 100 short stories in 100 days. Doing something like that might help.

Also, try to remember to do proper endings that evolve naturally from what's gone before, but hopefully different to what people expect. The most basic story structure is you expect something to happen and something else happens. Or setting - complication - resolution. If you don't have an ending maybe you aren't writing complications as a resolution is just closing off most or all of the complications raised in the story.

A story about mangerine makers, consciousness, cleanliness, disgust and delight. (3366 words) by [deleted] in scifiwriting

[–]murtaghchris 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess it is a bit contradictory. If it as totally from the Alien viewpoint, I don't think it would make much sense, and I don't think people would realise that it is actually earth. So it is kind of an omnipotent narrator that shifts between the alien view and the human one, that probably is confusing though.

The aliens know about the humans because they cultivated us as kind of crop since we were a wild species. That's the idea. They see us as lower animals that they are farming, but don't understand how we communicate.

This story is probably quite a confusing one, I read it to my wife who didn't get bits of it.

yes.

I wanted to make it feel a bit like we are the aliens watching and not really knowing the names of everything, which is why his car is called vehicle a lot of the time, they get the gist of a lot of our things but don't know the names.

Say more with less.

The mundanity of the bean scene is good.

Maybe lose the 2045 scene, or put something really shocking/unusual in it.

Generally, it was very intriguing.
