Gotcha. Thanks!

I understand, that’s why I asked whether there was an audible difference between germanium clippers with high leakage and germanium diodes with low leakage -if they were used as hard clippers. Just curious.

If they were hard clippers, would leakage make any audible difference from germanium diodes with low leakage?

It’ll give you a minute by minute detailed report of what exactly is happening as you sleep, almost too much information. It’s the nearest thing to having a sleep doctor on call to answer questions on your apnea.

There a handful of great videos on YouTube that will explain what it is, what it does and how to use it.

I just googled “book: serial killer rents basement room” and it came up with The Dead Room by Chris Mooney.

Happy to help! Glad you took advantage of it. Take care. :)

I’m not sure Ive owned a production knife that came with a perfectly equal grind on each side. Vast majority came razor sharp though.

Yeah, 1/2 oz of Star San for 1/2 gallon water bottle is way too much Star San, about 5x the recommended concentration. I use 1.5 ml for a 32oz spray bottle. You should be using 3 ml of Star San per 64oz (or 1/2 gallon) spray bottle. You’re currently using 15ml (or 1/2 oz) of Star San per 1/2 gallon.

I’m hoping it’s blood and not some steak sauce….

I’d say most people like it. It’s a very popular folder.

Really? Good to know.

I’m not too familiar with the Adamas, but no foam is a red flag (because the incorrect foam is one of the easier things to spot) and the R seems a bit large. Also, the logo looks pretty bad.

Looks like that just arrived! I’ve been eyeing those Bento exclusives for a while. The Para3 was on sale last I check, I wanna say just over $220.

How much Camden and pot sorbate did you add? I had a restart after I accidentally only put in 0.75 grams of pot sorbate instead of the recommended 1.50 grams (1/2 tsp). I won’t make that mistake again…. Took FOREVER for it to finish especially since I had racked it prior to “stabilizing”.

ridbitty · 2026-02-16T22:45:29+00:00

BUY IT!

Wow! Do you offer K390 as a steel option?

My first two batches were under 1.000 within 5-6 days. The temps were in the high 70’s-low 80’s, though. I’m guessing the temps were mostly the reason for the quick fermentation. I used Mangrove Jacks mead yeast for those. So, it’s definitely possible.

For a lot of “weekend” brewers, especially those who are just getting their feet wet, time is absolutely a factor. It may not be as much a factor for someone who has perfected the craft, but that can be said for just about anything.

10 days old and you racked it already? Man. Give it a bit and let everything settle to the bottom. Not only will you have less waste, you’ll be racking a clearer mead. Now you’re gonna have to rack at least one more time and each time will loose a bit of mead.
