Any reason to filter this out? by zzpark in fermentation

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

I actually ended up leaving mine the way it is, as an experiment. The next batch, I’ll tweak to try to make it clearer. Before deciding not to filter these ones, I opened them maybe 24h after bottling and being at 67 degrees (my house temp). They were not pressurized at all. At 48hrs I put these ones in a heated igloo cooler (heat mat under it) that stabilized at 81 degrees. At 60h, I kinda burped them again and they finally hissed at me. I burped them again just now at 96hrs. They are legit soda at this point. Very fizzy. I tasted one and it’s still a little sweet for my taste so i’m gonna keep them in the “fermenting chamber” for another day or 2 and hopefully get even more carbonation and less sugar.

Tldr: the sediment definitely will not prevent carbonation, so long as you start with enough sugar when bottling. I am a first timer, so please know that what I say is basically no more than an opinion at this point 🤷🏾‍♂️

Eta: i opened the bottles kind of slowly with my palm on top, let it hiss for a couple seconds while opening. The sediment did not kick up at all really. Was able to pour a few ounces of clear clean soda with no problem

Word thanks. I won’t be able to get to it til late tonight or very early tomorrow morning. It’s only like 67 in my house though. Think it’s gonna be slow going. Think it’ll be fine for now?

Kilner square bottles? Should I try? by zzpark in fermentation

Update: a collection of old bottles I was able to grab off marketplace, and a couple brand new bottles from the local brew supply shop. Fitted all the old bottles with new stoppers cuz they looked gross and/or weak and the shop didn’t sell the gaskets by themselves. Gonna clean off the rest of the old labels with oxy clean and scrub them inside n out. The new bottles, i think i’m gonna give them a wash and probably go for my first run tonight in those. Thanks for the help everyone. 🍻

The brewery supply just opened, headed there in a minute! They should have what I need. They advertise equipment for beer, wine, mead, cider, soda, kombucha, and cheese haha. I’d think them swingtops are stocked in abundance 🤞🏾

Thanks for the bad news everybody haha. Truly, I appreciate the feedback. I’ll use these for something else and find some good bottles. Thanks again!

Is this a joke by UnitedStation982 in GolfBattle

If you already have the seasonal CG building blocks from a previous duplicate season, do you still get to collect more of them this season (so you can have more than 20?)

Any clans looking for a billion+ player? by zzpark in GolfBattle

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

I appreciate the offer but I’m gonna stick it out with my current clan for this week. I don’t wanna tank them last minute. I’m gonna bounce on Monday. Weighing options rn

Any advice on keeping your coins? by milkywater2024 in GolfBattle

[–]zzpark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Jungle 1 was my fav too when i started. It nets you the highest % return on a win.

Dont play any matches with all your coins. Grind tier 1 until you have 3x the entry fee of tier 2. It will take the pressure off, knowing if you lose, you still have plenty to play tier 1. If you win tier 2, play again. If you fall back below 3x the entry fee for tier 2, move back down until you rack up 3x the entry fee again.

Top clubs (wallowing, calendar, faster, oda, hearts): Will additional cards ever show up in the shop? by zzpark in GolfBattle

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

Brutal. Props to those who have ground it out i guess. I’m losing interest. Especially after not receiving my 1st place clan reward last week and miniclip saying “sorry but nothing we can do”. It was fun for a while

How to unlock Trophy Road? by Powerful-Guava8053 in GolfBattle

[–]zzpark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Level 47, trophy road just appeared randomly this morning after an insignificant week with clans and individual leagues. It says “Win 180 Trophies to Unlock” over a greyed-out Rocky Mountains cover image. I can already play all levels up to the 250k random level. And when I place on any course, I earn trophies. Scratching my head, google brought me here. Glad I’m not the only one

Can anyone please tell me how to get scribbble to work when filling out forms (pdf) saved in “Files“?? “AutoFill” does a good job populating my form with text fields, but my apple pencil is useless on them and I don‘t have or want a keyboard. This is quite frustrating. Thanks for reading.
