[00:08:03] <TheMightyBuzzard> heh, at&t's looking to sell cnn cause it's hemorrhaging money and already 150 billion in debt. how funny would it be if trump rounded up some investors and bought it? yall discuss while i go read a book on the couch.
[00:08:16] <FatPhil> Bytram: Bacon in beer is ooooooold
[00:09:07] <FatPhil> date: 2011-01-19T15:07:07.307Z
[00:09:07] <FatPhil> name: Mikkeller Beer Geek Bacon
[00:14:29] <c0lo> Yeah, 2011 is a good bacon beer vintage.
[00:15:45] <FatPhil> I think I had one made with a ham in it too at about the same time.
[00:16:48] <FatPhil> Also Danish, IIRC. Friends of the brewers of that one. Attempting to out-stupid each other.
[00:18:15] <FatPhil> I may be a part owner in a craft brewery, but I can assure you I do my very best to make sure they avoid all that kind of nonsense. Alas I'm a minority owner, and my say is worth about 2 shits.
[00:20:45] <FatPhil> Now drinking one of our better brews, a barrel aged stout from 2018. Still happy to be a shareholder...
[00:32:52] <lld> are there special taxes for brewing your own alcohol? is moonshine back?
[00:34:10] <Runaway1956_> tushits beer - sounds kinda German?
[00:35:00] <FatPhil> moonshine's pretty illegal almost everywhere.
[00:35:55] <lld> I was under the impression any unlicensed brewing would be considered illegal
[00:35:57] <FatPhil> ahahh - you ain't very good with indoeuropean languages are you!
[00:36:06] <FatPhil> ^ to Runaway1956_
[00:36:24] * Runaway1956_ is monolingual
[00:36:31] <lld> so do you need a license for a microbrewery of your own?
[00:36:31] <Runaway1956_> thought everyone knew that
[00:37:06] <FatPhil> -ts endings are generally western/southern slavic
[00:37:35] <Runaway1956_> kk
[00:38:14] <FatPhil> -tch equivalent, often rendered with a c-hacek in czech, but -its is very polish
[00:39:43] <FatPhil> I'm monolingual, but i can give you the words for light, dark, and strong in 40 different languages.
[00:39:51] <FatPhil> nothing to do with beer, I'm sure.
[00:40:34] <FatPhil> (oh, I can also do "wheat" and "hops", no connection)
[00:42:41] <FatPhil> not sure about the Arkansas landscape, I would have thought that there should have been some german settlers there.

[01:20:54] <TheMightyBuzzard> lld, most states let you do 2-300 gallons of wine or beer a year for personal consumption, no oversight, no fees. just can't sell it.
[01:21:48] <TheMightyBuzzard> liquor's pretty much universally banned without licensing though.
[01:22:25] <TheMightyBuzzard> mind you, you can make all the ethanol fuel you like without one. or you can set up a methanol production facility and do whatever you like with the waste ethanol.
[01:47:31] <c0lo> Each time I tried methanol production, the yied has been abysmally low, lotsa waste ethanol.
[01:50:59] <lld> ok personal consumption
[01:51:25] <lld> how much proof does it have to go to be classified as "liquour"?
[01:51:53] <lld> or what is the legal line between beer and liquour?
[02:01:38] <c0lo> "liquour" is a spirit, thus distilled. Beer/wine is at the alcohol percentage the yeast manage to raise it without drowning in its own piss, no distillation.
[02:12:54] <TheMightyBuzzard> c0lo, i know. it's a huge pain. thankfully i have a bunch of empty oak barrels that someone ruined by charring the insides of them. ima store all that waste ethanol there until i can figure out what to do with it
[02:20:07] <TheMightyBuzzard> ya know, for ages i thought it must be really difficult to get 100% ethyl alcohol since you can only get up to like 95-96% via distillation. turns out you just dump some molecular sieves (fairly cheap) sized for water molecules in and agitate every now and then. and you can recycle them by drying them out in the oven.
[02:23:36] <Runaway1956_> Does 100% alcohol retain any flavor? Or is it kinda like pure water with a hellacious kick?
[02:24:57] <TheMightyBuzzard> well if it's actually 100%, there's no molecules in it except ethyl alcohol. so all you get is the alcohol flavor.
[02:25:41] <TheMightyBuzzard> mind you, you'd have to be a complete idiot to take a shot of it. gasoline would be more pleasant.

[02:29:09] <TheMightyBuzzard> ever tasted everclear on a dare? it's like that except worse.
[02:32:20] <TheMightyBuzzard> i wanna keep some around for chemistry stuffs though. lot of places anhydrous ethyl alcohol is useful but if it has any water at all mixed in it isn't.
[02:33:26] <TheMightyBuzzard> chemistry's fun. you can make things that splode.

[02:50:53] <c0lo> Magnesium sulphate - $10/5kg fertilizer grade. Purify by recrystalisation - probs a 70% yield, dehydrate it in the oven, dump it in the barrel with 97% alcohol, decant/filter.
[02:50:56] <c0lo> Reserve the magnesium sulphate for reuse, it is insoluble in alchohol.
[03:08:08] <TheMightyBuzzard> molecular sieves are 100% reusable though and insoluble/nonreactive with most things you might want to remove water from on account of being ceramic.
[03:09:22] <TheMightyBuzzard> well kinda ceramic anyway. aluminosilicate
[03:10:03] <TheMightyBuzzard> better solution if you're looking for broader chemistry applicability.

[04:18:32] <c0lo> You will find that magnesium sulphate is used a lot in backyard chemistry - not only insoluble in alcohols but the entire range of organic solvents. And a lot cheaper than the 3A mollecular sieve. Granted, not 100% chemically inert.
[04:20:34] <c0lo> (I'm not saying 3A molecular sieves are garbage, but they are quite expensive at barrel quantities. And, except for drying volatiles, they *will* get contaminated/unusable)

[12:34:16] <TheMightyBuzzard> i shoulda thrown some coca beans in with the coffee beans this morning
[12:35:38] <boru> I wish I could find cacao beans here locally to do that. I've got some decent ground stuff, but it's not the same.
[12:35:52] <boru> You're a lucky fecker.
[12:36:55] <TheMightyBuzzard> nah, they're illegal vegitation here. i could throw some leftover adderall in but it's other than delicious.
[12:38:10] <boru> Ah, of course.
[12:39:52] <TheMightyBuzzard> laws and me have a bit of a hit and miss relationship. i break them when they're too much bother and follow them when they're not.
[12:41:02] <boru> Chaotic neutral. I can respect that.
[12:41:45] <TheMightyBuzzard> nah, just true neutral. chaotic would be opposing their existence.
[12:42:35] <TheMightyBuzzard> i ain't got enough give-a-shit left for that like i did as a teenager
[12:42:50] <boru> I think that would be true evil.
[12:43:03] <TheMightyBuzzard> teenagers? nah, true-stupid
[12:43:22] <boru> And I thought you had let it slip about having a plantation up in Appalachia or some such.
[12:43:37] <boru> No no, I meant in reference to your statement about being true neutral.
[12:44:21] <boru> I think it'd be chaotic to follow laws only because they're in line with your own code.
[12:44:54] <boru> Whereas flagrantly disregarding others. I think that is the true spirit of chaotic neutral.
[12:44:55] <TheMightyBuzzard> oh, good evil axis speaks to self-interest vs. others. lawful chaotic axis speaks to authoritarianism vs. anarchy.
[12:45:23] <boru> Sure, but I would consider chaotic neutrals following laws to be happenstance.
[12:45:49] <TheMightyBuzzard> appalachia is quite a lot of hours of driving from me. i'm still way out towards the middle of the country what with TN being long as hell.
