  • Like Cuppa for a cup of tea

    Mappa is also italian for map. People of saints, poets and navigators, says the saying

  • I still haven't a Mora Companion, a classic among classics to have. But I'm not that deep into scandi grind. Anyway I always think about it

  • I am honoured to have been helpful with my initial post. I'm a happy owner of a Varusteleka Jääkäripuukko 140 (FIN), a BPS Knives Savage CSH (UKR), a Victorinox Sentinel and a Victorinox Spartan (CHE), and some glorious Opinels: n°09 Carbone, n°09 Inox, n°12 Carbone (FRA)

  • Thank you

  • try not to heat at any stage

    I was just thinking of heating a bit the jar in order to get as much honey as I can fluidifying it. So I better don't do it? I'll stick to room temperature.

  • Ok thanks

    Some bitter again

    Hello

    I recently restarted beer brewing after a pause of some years. I like to drink and brew bitter, so I restarted from there. This in the picture is the second brew in my "second era", an e+g beer brewed in a 10 l fermenter (I don't want to manage bigger volumes).

    Recipe is: 1 kg dry light malt extract; 50 g crystal dark (ebc about 270); 20 g Challenger for 40 min; 15 g Challenger for 2 min; 10 g Challenger in dry hopping; Mangrove Jack's M36 yeast. ABV 4.2%, IBU about 34.

    I should change the 50 g crystal dark for, let's say, 60 g crystal medium. I'll think about it. In order to spend less I used a dual purpose hop. Maybe in the future I'll use some Target for the bittering, but for now I'm quite happy. I use a single fermenter, so the result is a bit opaque. I don't care so much about that, other than try to cool down the beer for a night before bottling.

    Also I would like to resume my production of porter and maybe try some barley wine. Since a friend beekeeper gave me some ho

  • I was writing a wall of text but I got fed up because it's a useless effort and English is not my language. So in short battery management, time and date management (the dual boot thing), inability to use the second internal drive for more than a few weeks, after that I need to reformat it regularly, casual errors here and there. Last time I was using Ubuntu, in the past various derivates of Ubuntu or maybe some other distributions, I don't remember

  • Last time I tried was last autumn. It didn't go well (again). I try regularly because computer OS is pretty much the last thing I have to switch to get rid of spytech. I suppose I'm not skilled enough, but it's not fair to suppose that people don't switch to linux on pc because they're lazy, or ignorant, or bad or things like that.

  • Italian here Your pub man is quite wrong. It's an event in support of UE, more UE consolidation, support for Ukraine, and so on. Some government parties were part of the event, some others weren't

  • It's frustrating that maybe little by little someone is starting to consider this, after all Trump has done so far. But yes at least mr Stuart said it, I'm wrong. Everywhere there's a strong imvincible will to close eyes and hope that somehow the war will close itself doing minimum effort possible, and after that business as usual. No country take it seriously, unless it's too late. They're always one step behind. The smartest understood after a month or more of Trump's historical disasters.

    Salvini is shit.

    He's been actually paid by Russia for years. But he's so dumb he would do the job for the Cremlin for free too. Giuseppe Conte is another populist shit.

    There's plenty around of these people: AfD, Orban, Fico, Trump, Le Pen, Farage, and so many more. This human rubbish must be swept away

    The only luck is that Salvini's popularity is declining constantly

    EDIT: Let me remind you what a piece of crap he is:

    Sorry I know too few insults in English, I can't quite tell how I hate him
