  I used to keep a backed up base image to reflash a corrupted sd card. But after the 3rd or 4th time i knew i had to find a better solution.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What are your opinions of using Pi-hole for DNS within a homelab environment?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I eventually moved to docker on the pi. But the pi would randomly go down. I had two of them for redundancy but eventually one of them ended up corrupting its sd card and shortly later the other went down unexpectedly while i was at work and the whole family lost connection without knowing how to fix it.

  Decided to move to to dns blocking on the router. Basically its easy to reboot for the family and has yet to fail (more than a year now).

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What are your opinions of using Pi-hole for DNS within a homelab environment?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I like it but just not on a Pi. I found it too unstable. I found it easier to host in a docker container.

  Although these days i just use blocklists on my router.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Tips on safely removing CO2 valve from Sanke D keg down tube⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Technically yes but not super practical. Normally you want to ferment in a larger vessel with a larger starting volume to end up with your desired final volume. For example, 22 liters into a 25 liter fermentor (think 20% extra headspace for primary). The extra head space allows space for kraussen. Then you can rack off the yeast and end up closer to something like a desired 20 liters into a keg. Also since you are making mead fruit is often used that would be difficult in a keg.

  I would recommend ferment in fermentor then rack into keg for conditioning etc. no one wants a pour of your fermentations yeast cake.

  Micromatic is correct its fairly unusual to tear down the keg spear. My recommendation is to clean it as it was designed to be cleaned with a pump.

  • keg
  • pump
  • coupler (with co2 check valve removed)
  • basin or bucket
  • somewhere to invert keg

  Basically you would need a basin for what ever you want to run through the keg (rinse, caustic, sani, etc) to feed the pump. Connect the pump’s outlet to the liquid port on the coupler. Connect a hose to the co2 line to flow back into the basin (remember to remove the co2 check valve). Couple the coupler onto the keg and invert the keg (ie turn upside down). Then run the pump.

  Whatever solution should pass through the spear spray the walls of the keg then drain out through the co2 pathways in the spear. This effectively is what a keg washer is doing and will pretty thoroughly clean the part you are concerned about.

  A couple of safety tips: wear eye protection and make sure you purge co2 out of the keg prior to adding caustics

  Good luck!

  I believe peak supply of people in that age group. I.e for the up coming future there will be less and less students since there are just fewer kids

  Great work on doing a decoction mash. Im far far too lazy to ever do that. Do you think it benefited the beer?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Oktoberfest!⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Looking nice! Tell us more about the beer

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨thick skinned employees, how can you be so thick skinned?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Sounds like to me that maybe its not about how thick their skins are but about not taking the job personally. If you view a job just performing a function for money and just focus solely on the job it would look the same. Ignore other peoples drama, personalities, work ethics etc. Just do the job and focus on that ignore the drama, the gossip, and focus on doing your job well.

  I manage staff and my best employees would seem stoic but really they just had focus, good work ethics, and a kind of get in and get out mentality. No gossip, no hanging out with their coworkers. Work was work then go home.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Thoughts on HumHub?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  The lack of ios app deterred me from even testing it. I play tech support for my family enough to know an app would be necessary.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Thoughts on HumHub?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Man ive been looking for something like this for a long time and never found a suitable option.

  Post i had before about this same topic.

  Humhub wasnt a solution for me since most of my family uses iPhones and not having a dedicated app would confuse them.
