:) clubbing

I am looking at ways to filter soda extracts, so like I am not waiting months or even weeks before carbing. I am not enthused about using CO2 as a way to force the liquid through the filter, has anyone used a drill pump, like these that connect to a portable drill. Amazon.com: Forart Portable...

Ah, counter pressure filling: Counter Pressure Bottle Growler Filler - QuantiPerm So, you ad a bung, and tube then I guess just some way to shoot some C02 pressure in there. Maybe a valve?

I figured it out it linked to enough similar questions. It'll be fine, since I intend to spund anyway. However, there are some tricks to dealing with foam. in transfer.

How much of a faux pas is it to carbonate a keg warm, then dispense to a growler for chilling? Any tips on required pressures?

I am putting together my kegging system. The form factor of the fridge means I won't be able to have either a tower or drilled door faucet. Is a plastic picnic faucet good enough, seems like I've been at parties where those leak, or could incidentally get opened upd. I think I am going to do...

Well, people have been adjusting the water chemistry for eons. I sort of realized that the key to the masa flavor is that it is more basic, and has sort of a mineral flavor. The basic quality of the adjustments are probably what give grits that smooth quality because bases tend to feel slippery.

I received the edgestar this week. I am pretty happy with it as a refrigerator, beats the wine chiller. It is so much more powerful. Cold brews are definitely an improvement. I haven't got the CO2 bottle yet. How hard is it to swap out kegs with a simple bottle regulator system, if I...

It came up in sort of an unrelated quest, but I have been looking at Native American cooking. Interestingly enough they used lime or ash to Nixtamalize corn. I think I'm onto something here.

Doing a starter might help. Though I feel like I would use more sugar building the starter than I add to the bottle.

I would try baked plantains. I buy plantains at the market then bake them pretty much whole, until the peel splits and they slide out. When baked just right they taste almost like bananas foster without adding rum or ice cream. If not over cooked they get sort of an alcohol effervescence and...

I use the same folder for my stews and beer recipes.

Is there a good way to adjust water chemistry when cooking say a soup or a stew. I like spices very much. My root beer really needed water chemistry adjustment. I was wondering how one would go about adjusting water chemistry besides just adding salt. I was looking at my Vitamin supplements...
