Random DIY mixing and More

[FranC]

Last coffee is done. Have a little house stuffs to do so going to get that done.

 

[FranC]

House stuffs done, coffee pot ready for morning. Time to try to get in mixing mode. Ice creams come first.

@charlie1465 You are missed. I hope all is going well.

No... No central anything. At the top of the stairs there's a propane heater, and then a large electric space heater in the living room that pretends to be a fireplace, and an electric space heater in the kitchen that pretends to be a pot belly stove...

The main problem is the living room heater has given up the ghost just in time for winter, and we can't afford to replace it. I have a small space heater for the bedroom if we need, but I'm going to have to do something about the living room because it's probably the largest room in the house..

What type and size are you thinking would work in the room? I am not very familiar with space heaters.

 

[FranC]

Bottles are labeled. That’s half the battle.

Ty Taste description?

I haven’t done much with the Longan Fresh. I did get it in a mix and I liked it but can’t remember the taste.

Ty Taste description?

Per @sessiondrummer

Longan Fresh (FA) 2.5% 6-6-21) – Continuing on our interesting fruit travels is the Dragon Eye 2, aka. Longan. True to the fruit, this was similar to Lychee, but more restrained, with an almost 7-up kicker, and a musky afternote. The muskiness, just like in the fruit wasn’t overbearing, and just worked here as well. The 7-up nuance(s) persisted throughout, and I’d swear when smelling it in the tank, it almost smelled like beer hops. Now, hehe, I get it, sounds crazy, but, as a solo flavor, it DID work, and was very close to the actual fruit. The beer hops was really only present when smelling it, not tasting it, so fear not. @2.5% it felt really solid, sweetness was below mid level, and all in, another unique fruit offering from FA, and if you like Lychee, you’ll probably like, and want this one as well. Interestingly set @ 9.3/10.

The premium I think.

I think I'm going to mix both cookies again a little larger quantities and give them a proper steep. If I do it soon then they would be well steeped in time for my vacation over Xmas.

I'm really sorry to hear that. I don't know what kind of heater you have in the living room but would one of those radiant heaters work for that room or is it too big of a space?

I'm not sure what type i have either, all I really know is that it's hardwired in..

I've considered one of those radiant heaters, they may work. I've also considered an indoor kerosene heater too, but haven't checked yet to see if I can get kerosene for it at a gas station around here.

I've considered one of those radiant heaters, they may work. All I really know is that without something in the living room, it's bringing the overall temperature down in the entire house and we aren't all in on winter yet so I'm a bit concerned.

But yeah, one of those heater's may work fine.. I've also considered an indoor kerosene heater too, but haven't checked yet to see if I can get kerosene for it at a gas station around here.

My father in law keeps a kerosene heater in his garage in the winter and I can always smell it when I go over there. I don't know if the indoor ones are better but if they smell like his does then you might not like it.

Oh I know, remember I use to live up North and "Suvived" many a blizzard, & Nor-Easters too, just felt like rubbing it in a little . . .


Thanks, the very apologetic service man called this morning - everything's been approved (even a rental car if needed) . . . And as soon as ALL the parts come in (maybe after next week after Thurkey day), he will call to setup appointment . . .
