  • But then we'd get back to authoritarian society where some random representative would have resources to usurp. Taxes will solve nothing. No, we've got to dismantle the whole concept of superpowers, accumulation, and capitalism. We have enough just to feed everyone and educate all who want to be educated.

  • If you have a brewer supply locally, totally just invade them. The job is usually quite boring, they LOVE initiating neophytes.

  • Another way that prevents bottles from exploding is corking with wine corks slightly slices across to hold a thick thread that wraps around the neck to hold the cork against pressure. It's quite weak seal that should pop before the glass.

    My friend once had some bottles of sparkling hard cider bottled like that (naturally explosive), left for a trip in winter (Texas), temperature went below freezing, so his landlord (old redneck lady with confederate flags and deer skulls on her house) went into his place and turned on gas stove. Sure she forgot to turn it off when weather normalized to regular +10C, so when he came back, it was hot sauna with apple flavor, but no broken glass at least!

  • Actually, I remember how I started: I've got a kit and waited for a while with it. Then dumped all of it and just bought fullgrain ingredients, no regrets at all. Starting with a kit seems like harder path with less sure result from my current experience. Maybe it's a way you should consider too?

  • On top of what other said, there is a trick to plum: they usually ferment quite nicely (I recommend Lalvin RC212 yeast) but the trick is to bottle condition them for 5 years minimum. It is absolutely worth it.

    Don't go for lambics though, they are tricky and until you understand exactly why, I don't recommend it. They are totally not newbie stuff. But aim for plum christmas ale, that's very easy and just in time to try!

  • After like 3 years I was again brewing beer just for fun and not 2000l batch as my job or trying something on this small scale for my job (because I had a time and got the ingredients for free).

  • Refractometers start to be really off once you have fruit juice and ongoing fermentation. I use mine only to see if reading is changing over time, absolute value is easily off by 20-30 g/L

  • Nice setup!

    My neighbour just got too large grapes crop this year and I took some (about a month ago). Juiced them (never tried this before), the juice was 1040, bumped it with honey to 1120 or so, pitched mead yeast, thus now I'm running a similar experiment!

  • I've been reading about some Pueblo tribe's ritual trip to collect salt from salt plane; there is a rock that's a grandmother of gods of war laying to rest on the same trip and turning to stone, and you are supposed to hump her on the way to pay respects. While your grandma who just explained the rite to you waits and probably watches, idk.

  • Found their free content tg channel, they have books on Tiang-An-Men square event or whatever it's called, and surely some queer stuff. Illegalism seems to be mainstream in Russian society nowadays, the biggest outcome of international trade limitations IMO, but these guys do not post anything like direct action guides. It's not like there are Russians who don't know how to build a bomb at home; stealing one is probably simpler by now though.

    I suppose the point is that society is quite capable of messing things up for Putin, and all hasn't really fallen because they massively buy into propaganda and benefit from corruption and the war versus momentary non-corrupt non-war hypothetical scenario while suffering from capitalist stuff more than anyone. Thus, this kind of activism seems like the right thing, but who knows? At least government punishes them for free speech more than for anything else it seems.

  • Outside hosting is very natural move every activist should consider. The prices are probably listed based on location, their telegram channel shows prices in rubles, and also lists retail shops that sell their books in Moscow, few other cities in Russia, Ukraine, and also a few other places worldwide (including SF, USA). No matter where they print, they distribute in hell.

    I'm trying to figure out how exactly they pull this out, I know publishing houses that were busted for stuff that even slightly deviated from propaganda.
