    Electric cars.

    😯 Let's call it an evolving subject, anyway what else am I going to read on a Sunday afternoon!

    Electric cars.

    They appeared to all wear at the same rate without any rotation, just checking it's a 40/60 (front/rear) power distribution so maybe that says more about how I take corners that what should be expected as normal 😁

    Electric cars.

    I got 30k out of mine, changed all 4 though as all wheel drive. This second lot look like they may last even longer.

    Electric cars.

    My news feed (Google) is littered daily with all sorts of ev related scaremongering nonsense. I know it's all targeted and I've previously shown an interest in ev's but it prime click bait so I assume many others are being pushed it. I don't click on them now, even just to read how ridiculous...

    Electric cars.

    At least one exists already, ZapMap. I used it for a holiday to Blackpool once, guy just wanted £15 a day I think to park on his drive and charge, was almost cheaper than parking for a day.

    Electric cars.

    I think they're just not making as much profit on it. If they price their car buying customers out of the fuel to drive them they won't have any customers so I'm guessing it's in their interests to make it as affordable as possible. All of the other charging networks are in it for the ££'s and...

    Electric cars.

    Agreed, although I charged at Barrow town centre this week for 37ppkWh, said 22kW but only got 11, 4 chargers none of them occupied. Used the Octopus Electorverse app for the first time, they seem to have deals with most of the other networks, my 37p included an 8% octopus discount. Didn't...

    Oxygenation of hoppy wort

    Wow, excellent solution, and a good use of the 3D printer!

    Oxygenation of hoppy wort

    Probably not an issue Tbh, there will be a more dense CO2 blanket on top that should keep it mostly insulated from O2 and any additional CO2 production should vent any O2 introduced I think. I (probably mistakenly now I re-read it) assumed you were pressure fermenting and then pressure...

    Oxygenation of hoppy wort

    If you're worried about the initial oxygen hit on the hops at start of fermentation and you're keeping eveeything sealed through the whole process and pressure transferring to keg, you could delay the dry hop addition with a bag suspended with magnets and drop them in after a couple of days of...

    Re-using yeast from current brew

    There are a few good videos on YouTube on washing your yeast for reuse, I've just started doing it after trying an expensive liquid yeast and wanting to get my moneys worth. Just need a few jars and some time to swirly it about and decant a couple of times to get rid of the trub at the bottom...

    Electric cars.

    As well as setting a charge level you can also set a charge rate in Amps, incase you want to charge more than 1 car at a time maybe and want to balance the load I'm guessing.

    Electric cars.

    I just plug it in whenever I'm home, default charge is to 70%, change it to something higher if I think I need it. You can fast charge to greater than 80% but the car will slow the charge as it get closer to 100% so not relay fast charging for the last 10-15% or so.

    Cheap Hops

    I have mine! But unfortunately 4 of the 9 don't have a vacuum seal anymore. And one was spilling hops into the box. Tasted the spilt hops and it wasn't good so looks like I'm chucking almost half, anyone else's turn up like this or was I just unlucky?

    BIAB Do I Don’t I

    That would probably work, if you're boiling with say 5.5 litres of mash you'll probably hit 4.5l to ferment if you keep a close eye on it during the boil. You can always top up with boiled water in the FV if you end up undershooting. I've recently made the switch from kits to AG BIAB and really...

    Cheap Hops

    Had the same with my last delivery by Evri, out for delivery email received and then another a few hours later saying there might be a problem with my delivery and I need to wait 7 days and contact the seller. It's not like a corny keg and a load of other stuff can fall down the back of the...
