How dangerous is it?

Most Indian restaurant cooking is done in aluminium pans...

She's a ******* idiot.

 

[Clint]

Who is?

 

[Buffers brewery]

Who is?

I have a colleague who proudly tells me that she has chucked out all of her aluminium pots, and doesn't consume anything that has come into contact with aluminium, because "it causes Alzheimer's". If her Facebook is anything to go by, she doesn't seem so concerned about the impact of the amount of drink she ingests.

 

[Clint]

Quoted me though...

 

[Buffers brewery]

Do you want me to explain?

 

[MashBag]

but zero no chill cubes)

Me too. I just pop the lid on and run off. No cubes are harmed in the making of my beer.

You were presumably responding to my comment about my colleague's aversion to aluminium. Hence my response to you that yes, she's a ******* idiot.

 

[Clint]

Ha,I wasn't I just made a random comment which must have coincided with the something or other stuff that happens on the interweb.

And aluminium, and teflon coated.

The history of Teflon is fascinating. I watched a documentary about the Robert Bilott vs 3M/Dupont case regarding PFOS contamination from the Teflon/Scotchguard plant (also the basis of the move Dark Waters). In the 90's 3M looked worldwide for clean blood samples to compare to its workers’ blood. The only blood they could finds not contaminated with PFOS, was blood samples of soldiers who died in the Korean War 40+ years earlier. Sobering.

Dark waters was such a good film, but sobering indeed.

4. Keep away from high temperatures and sources of fire

Boiling wort into a thin LFPE membrane sounds safe. LDPE is only stable to around 85°C.

It’s what Iv use for a while now and never had a problem. I do whirlpool and let my kettle rest so I’m transferring no hotter than 90’c

Wow. That looks scary.
That looks like an appointment at A&E just waiting to happen.

Look on malt Miller.
They are a lot thicker.

Thank you for saying that. I did wonder if my health & safety head had got carried away.

 

[Dazzelknight]

They work for me anyway on with my brew day

 

[Sadfield]

Until they don't.

Excuse my ignorance, what is the advantage of using these over just leaving the wort to cool in the boiling vessel with the lid on?

For example one issue I would forsee is the zero dissolved oxygen in the wort.
