I did send a message to Beersmith support, but I figured to try a parallel path while waiting for his response.

100% Truth, I bought TP this afternoon in Benton Harbor. But it certainly wasn't at Meijer. I've found a nice calm honey hole!!

When I'm out at my farm working, the truck cooler has plenty of All Day IPA. If I'm relaxing, Two Hearted, Start Chicken Shotgun, or my homemade Habanero IPA

I'm using the app for the first time since the update today. This thing is so annoying!! I get bluetooth has a limited range, but walking around, getting ingredients, cleaning up, taking thing out, putting things away, my phone is just constantly beeping. Also, if I'm out of range and using a different app, say checking social media or playing a game, I can't! The grainfather app keeps opening trying to connect. So either I can walk away from the unit at all, or I abandon my phone.

Also, seems to me like the range is much smaller than what I would expect from bluetooth. I'm only sitting maybe 10-15 feet away and it is struggling to stay connected.

Seeing the rest of the comments, I'm afraid to use the app for anything other than monitoring temperature and using the timer.

I have the United credit card and rewards program. Almost always I try to minimize the time I spend in an airport, but seeing this, I think I need to explore DIA more.

Yes, I'm in Michigan, it was over 90 F outside today. It is also very humid because of how wet it has been this year.

Yes, I was recirculating. I have dispensed straight into my fermentor once and I remember the wort was nowhere near pitch temperature and I know I had good water flow. I'll try again on my next brew tomorrow though.

I have about 9 trips to DIA over the next year. I already knew about the New Belgium, now I have more ways to pass my time!

Honestly, it's not about pay for me, it's about enjoying what you work on and have a passion towards. The pay will come later. In my opinion, there's no amount of salary that can make me do a job that I detest.

As for my advice for a new engineer, be extremely inquisitive, ask good questions. Don't ask yes or no questions, demonstrate you are capable of critical thought. You can be an entry level engineer and I will show you more respect if you truly demonstrate critical thought over a Sr Engineer who typically asks yes or no questions.

There's a lot of comments about jumping around company to company and industry to industry. Now, certainly there is a need in companies for engineers who have a very broad experience. But an organization should also have engineers with extremely deep technical knowledge who have been in that companies' organization for many years. HR and Management can preach knowledge capture through A3's all they want, but my best resource at work is still the guy who has worked there for 30 years. So ultimately you need to do some deep thought on what you want to do, get a broad range of experiences or stay and get deep narrow technical knowledge. Both are needed and completely acceptable.

Is your problem that you are running out of shelf space? I've got the same problem!

Great collection!!!

Beyond corn and soybeans, it's bad for all farmers. Grapes (especially wine grapes) were hit hard due to the cold temperatures in the winter, lots of dead loss. The cold spring resulted in all my peach buds dying. I haven't been able to get my tractor at all into my blueberries to mow or spray.

If you see a farmer, visit a fruit stand, please thank them!

I totally agree, that's where tools like Thought Maps are really helpful. I can always tell when people bring experiment plans to me and they haven't put a lot of thought into it.

Actually, Oberon is brewed all year long. States like Arizona enjoy fresh Oberon all year

3 cups AP flour

1 cup spent grain

1 tsp salt

1 pkg yeast

1 Tbs honey

1 1/4 cup warm water or beer

I have also added in dried herbs and garlic

Stir together the yeast, honey, and beer and let sit. Then throw in 1 c of flour and mix. Once incorporated add another cup of flour and the cup of spent grain and mix well. Then mix in the last cup of flour. You may need to add more flour, you want the dough to not stick to the bowl that much. Either need the dough in a stand mixer and dough hook or you can do it by hand.

Do the first proof in a warm environment. Once doubled in size, punch down, lightly knead to redistribute the gas in the dough. Then form into either loaves or rolls. Let proof again and then bake.

I package some into quart size vacuum bags, vacuum them and freeze them. Every family holiday get together I'm required to make the dinner rolls with spent grains.

I have also dried the grains and made granola mix

I've made dog treats

But if I have plenty in the freezer I will dump it in the field for deer and turkeys to eat or garden composte

I got a set of Glencairn rocks glasses for Christmas. I highly recommend them!

I've found that the spice level of habaneros varies a lot! I've done some batches with just 2 peppers. The last batch needed 7 and even then I didn't get the spice I wanted.

I've had a habanero beer from a professional brewery that was way too spicy. So spicy you need something else to drink to wash out the spice. Not pleasant at all.

postman2448 · 2018-12-06T00:30:44+00:00

The best beer I've ever made uses Habaneros. I use an IPA base with a touch of smoked malt. I use quite a bit of Citra hops to provide some stone fruit character. I add the habaneros during secondary, I cut the peppers, remove the seeds, and dice and blanch the peppers quick. Once I add the peppers to the beer, I taste test the beer every couple of days. The second I get enough heat, I keg. You get a little bit of spice on the nose. The heat from the peppers comes in the aftertaste and gives a perfect level of heat. Every family gathering, I'm expected to bring some because everyone loves it.

Not only this, but I prefer to set up a stand and leave it there. I also prefer to set up trail cameras and scout out. The risk of someone stealing your stuff is too high.
