    MikeUSMC 2023 GLOG

    Hopefully, I’ll keep up with this GLOG this year, unlike the previous few years. I didn’t do one last year but, I think my GLOG (if you can even call it that) from 2021 was literally ONE post :lol: I’ve been working 50-72 hour weeks for the last 2 years (6 days a week), but now I’m back to...

    Stettoman '23: Had ya wondering, didn't I?

    Hey, @stettoman, check out what I just found hidden in the back of my spice cabinet the other day, lol I was trying to organize the cabinet, and found this waaaaaay in the back corner, hidden from view. It must’ve fallen off of the Lazy Susan in there, God knows how long ago. @Guatemalan...

    hot-sauce Fermented Capsicum chinense sauces ?

    Thanks, Pook! Nope, not commercial; just a hobbyist. I haven’t made any sauces in a few years now, but I hope to change that this Fall 👍🏻

    hot-sauce Fermented Capsicum chinense sauces ?

    I can’t think of any commercially available fermented Chinense sauces off the top of my head but, I’d definitely try one if I saw one on the shelf. I happen to really enjoy fermented Chinense pepper sauces. I’m not sure if I’d say they’re “better” than a vinegar based (non-fermented) sauce but...

    Grass Snake 🐍 in the garden

    @Grass Snake, I’ve got seeds I can send you, but none of the varieties you’ve mentioned in this thread. It’d be mostly Bonnets or superhots. Maybe some C. Pubescens. I think all of my seed stock is from 2018 though. Either way, I’d be happy to share with you, bro. Just let me know 🍻

    beer Being Crafty

    :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: Yeah, they do, Rick 😂 Tons of them, actually! They make a bunch of different stouts, a few pilsners, sours, lagers, porters, etc. Trust me when I tell you that Tree House IPAs are the farthest thing from a “piney” IPA that you can find, lol. Although, they have gone out of...

    tutorial Making some puree today...will post pics of the process....it's easy....

    “Well done Mike! Those are some nice looking manzanos. The puree has a great color” Thanks, @Downriver! I agree; I love how vibrant the color is too! “I love the little bits in there.” I don’t, lol :rofl: I was really hoping for it to come out smoother but, that blender is close to 10 years...

    beer Being Crafty

    Yeah, me too! You’re in the Netherlands, right? This “hazy,” tropical beer style is very common in “New England IPAs,” which originated (as far as I can tell) in the northeastern United States 🍻

    tutorial Making some puree today...will post pics of the process....it's easy....

    Busy morning! :party: After putting a little more thought into it, I realized that I’d personally get more use out of some smoked powder than purée, so I only made a little bit. I ended up using: 400g Manzanos 240ml champagne vinegar (6%) 5 teaspoons agave nectar 1/2 teaspoon sea salt...

    Yellow manzanos 👍🏻 I’ve got a little bit of time off of work right now. I’ll post pics but, I want to get the kids out the door to school before I fumigate the place ;)

    tutorial Making some puree today...will post pics of the process....it's easy....

    I recently found a “Latin Market” in the next town over this week, so I stopped in to see if (on the off chance) they carried fresh manzano peppers. Lucky me, as it turns out, they did. I grabbed all of the “decent” (aka not mushy, lol) ones that they had. Walked out with 4lbs of them at $6/lb...

    breeding Best Large Jalapeno

    I know I’ve posted this pic before but, here’s a “Mammoth Jalapeño” I grew from a “Bonnie” plant I grabbed at Home Depot a few years ago. I was surprised to see the lack of corking on this one, while all of the small pods on the plant were corked like a mofo, lol. I don’t remember anything...

    beer Being Crafty

    “GREEN MACHINE” absolutely did NOT disappoint! 💚 If I could only use one word to describe this beer, it would definitely be: “DANK”. Pineapple, mango, and citrusy notes, with an oily mouthfeel. Zero head when poured. Getting some serious “Sunny D” vibes. Total tropical hop bomb. An...
