That doesn't look like a Bilchmann™ beer refrigerator. @Valve1138 will be so disappointed.

Well, fucked up the white stout by adding too many hops. Honestly, it seemed like a bit much. I should listen to myself more. Trying to neuter all the yeast now so that I can backsweeten the keg a bit. Another lesson learned!

Just call it a north coast IPA or something and be done with it.

Neither @APRIL or @Wessels like it, so we have to fix it. Which is fine. I get to learn more chemistry and how to backsweeten.

Too many IBUs.

For @APRIL, who actually likes IPAs.

I am not wasting calorie intake on something I don't enjoy. He'll get it fixed, he's good at his job.

I've been using a lot of various solvents for degreasing and cleaning parts prior to painting.

Started to wonder, how difficult would it be to just set up a perpetual still and get it to pump out alcohol of a good enough quality to degrease stuff without leaving residue?
I wouldn't be drinking it, so I wouldn't necessarily care about methanol V ethanol, unless there's another reason to avoid that stuff?

It'd be difficult to keep from heat-soaking the feed stock eventually. I do half of that, because I run a reactor to keep the plants in my fish tank happy, but I don't distill off the alcohol, I just run it until the yeast die, then swap mixtures. Takes about 5-6 weeks.
