Just bought it for a sous vide system I've slowly been putting together. I'm excited.

Teams that can be referred to by initials on second reference: UCF, USF, USC, FIU, FAU, UTSA, ULM. #APStyleChat

So wait, we don’t abbreviate too many schools because of the opportunity for confusion, but USC is okay?

It just doesn't get old

Not quite public transportation, but a similar situation. My senior year of college, I watched a guy on the front row of our class pull out a spoon and a tub of Kerrygold butter as a mid-morning snack. “It’s mashed potatoes!” I thought to myself, but there was no denying the slow curl of the butter with every…

I hate the type of response (kill all the snakes) seen in the article and comments. I understand that snakes make people uncomfortable, but this mentality is just willful ignorance.

Goofy dad guy?

Probably so.

I’ve always struggled labeling my beliefs so black and white. I’m against cutting access to Planned Parenthood / women’s health clinics as a way to curb abortion, and legally speaking, believe that safe access to abortions is important. But I do believe we should make an effort to reduce the number of abortions, and…

Check the arrest of Jesus. After Simon Peter cuts off a guards ear, Jesus is pretty explicit in telling his disciples to not do that.

I certainly understand your second point, but I think it’s very difficult, especially for someone looking at the outside of the church in, to make the distinction clear.

As a Christian (although granted, on the more liberal / progressive side of theology), nothing quite bothers me like “taking a stand for Christ.” There’s a lot of arrogance in that statement - namely the idea that God is so downtrodden that you need to take a stand, but also in the lack of awareness that 21st century…

2 gallons is glorious. 15-20 bottles, and I can do it on the stovetop. Someone is making some nice 2.5 gallon fermenters as well now - I may have to pick one up soon.

I'll have to keep an eye for that one. Spiced ales are hit or miss for me, but I'd never turn down a really well made one. Just depends if we can get that down in Georgia.

No spices in Celebration, although you’re right, it could get interesting. Maybe a bad example to pick.

I paid $2.99 for an “expired” 6 pack of 312 pale once. It was good. I’d pass over 6 month old Celebration for something fresher at the same price, but I’ll pay $2.99 for a six pack of almost anything.

As a fellow small apartment homebrewer, my advice is generally to go straight for the brew in a bag route and stick to ~2-2.5 gallon batches. That seems to be about the magical number for me to easily do on my stove. I’m also not a good enough brewer to want 5 gallons of anything I’m making. I don’t think BIAB is much…
