Eurorack tape module? I want to know what it can do... off googlin'

Yeah - moderate temperature, huge surface area and plenty of air movement across the surface would bring best results. I'm absolutely doing this again next spring, aiming for 20 liters of sap so I can put my fancy fermentation setup to work. Was thinking of using two of those under-the-bed storage boxes to make an evaporating setup, having the lids on and feeding in air with an aquarium pump that has two outputs. I'd still add dark syrup for colour though.
By all means! If you can read my English...:
The nice thing about fermenting birch sap is that it naturally comes with nutrients for yeast to thrive, unlike regular wine juice. So no need to use yeast nutrient. But there is not a huge deal of sugar in it, so that needs to be added.
I gathered about 6 liters of sap over a couple of days. Emptied the bottles from trees into five liter containers every day and put in a Campden tablet to stop wild yeasts from messing with my magic. Stored in a fridge until I had enough to start fermenting.
Then I boiled 2 liters of water to sanitise it; dissolved 1 dl of syrup to provide extra sugar and hence extra alcohol in the finished product; let it cool to room temperature and added yeast to this container and let the yeast start making bubbles.
Then just poured the sap and yeast starter in the fermentation vessel with an airlock on. Let it ferment for the couple of days it bubbled. Then put the fermentation vessel in the fridge for a couple of days to clear out the yeast – it sinks to the bottom and the 'wine' ends up nice and clear (clearer than the photo I took, it eventually got perfectly clear).
To make it bubbly I used a Sodastream thing :D It was good also without carbonation.
Easy and really good stuff! Go for it :)
Hiding from the scary Finn :D :D
We have firewood shelters (including the very important 1 m³ treasure trove of little sticks), making fire is very easy at this site :D
It's coming, and I'm sure the baby is the more important adventure for now :D Hilsen tilbake!
Well no, it's not a product :D What you are looking at is just a regular hammock and tarp hang...
The hammock is made by me, and it's hanging like hammocks regularly are, strapped to trees. There is a ridgeline on the hammock and that is supporting a bug net.
The tarp is a DD Hammocks 3 x 3 m Superlight tarp on a Derek Hansen ridgeline (you can google this one, really neat) and there is a tent support bar spreading the tarp on the front-back axis (this is again my own idea, highly recommended). The trick is to have a bar that's longer than the tarp, so that it ends up bowing up and supporting the tarp. Mine is a 3,25 m spare part for some expensive tent that I do not have :D
Pockets have come a long way
Are you starting the server and laptop Syncthings as systemd user units? You'll see stuff asking for 'systemctl status syncthing@yourusername' if you are. That way it works (and has worked for years now) for me. I've kept the config really simple because I only have it syncing at home, so no encryption or discovery. If you also only have it working on a trusted network, maybe ditch the complications...?
The Android side is tough because of all the restrictions. I'd imagine that's what is troubling your phone Syncthing.
It's hopeless, you're quackered.
I wonder if this kind of arrangement would help? Never had a sportbike but I recall friend's GSX-R had a removable passenger seat. Pop it off, lay two straps like this so that they end up behind some studs or latches so they can't fall out. Then the seat goes on top.
There are stubby figure 8 knots on doubled up sections of the strap so that a loop is formed. Then strap bags onto those loops. The length of the straight portion of the strap should be exactly the width of the seat so the loops and knots peek out at the edge of the seat.
