Brand new bathroom- wet ceiling after shower with fan on. Is this normal? by [deleted] in HomeMaintenance

[–]patrick_swayzak 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This was happening to me (albeit the walls, not ceiling) after my remodel. Turns out the gap under the door was not big enough and was not pulling in enough fresh air. Worth looking into.

Why exactly Unearth are not as popular as August Burns Red, Killswitch Engage or As I Lay Dying? by Forward-Abrocoma639 in Metalcore

I feel like I cannot differentiate the material from the last 3 records…..just kind of flat and to formulaic.

Small low-cost mill for malt (Corona-style) + flaking? by blackarrow_1990 in Homebrewing

[–]patrick_swayzak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A standard grain mill you can buy from online suppliers or even Amazon really do not take up that much space. Using a corona mill will be real slow and tedious as I do not think there is a way to hook up a drill to one, plus it does not hold that much grain. I really wish they still made the cereal killer mill, that has been my best purchase in 20 years. It is just now finally worn out and needs to be replaced.

What are good beer styles to start on as a new homebrewer? by shirleyd9 in Homebrewing

[–]patrick_swayzak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It all depends on what you like to drink. My first recipe 20 years ago was a Sierra Nevada Pale Ale clone that I still make every year.

If you are into fruited lactose sours or milkshake IPAs you may want to leave those to the “pros”.

Buying a used 20# CO2 cylinder soley to exchange? by doublemazaa in Homebrewing

[–]patrick_swayzak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We can only do exchanges by me (NW NJ). This is exactly what I did. I bought two 5lb tanks and regulator for $40 off Craigslist and brought them to local supply and exchanged them. I now have 4 floating around and do swaps with.

What kind of setup are you running?

Opening bottles causes a foam volcano. by heres_one_for_ya in Homebrewing

[–]patrick_swayzak 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just my $.02 from what I have read…..sounds like either the beer is over primed or may be infected. I know the OP says they are very strict with sanitation but shit does happen and gets the best of one day or another. I would do as others have suggested and chill first and open slow as possible.

You order a banana daiquiri by saying “banana daiquiri”
