Brewing... finally

I have finally found some time to brew. The end of the school year is always packed with non-brewing activities. In addition to finally having time to brew, I am motivated to get things in my pipeline before it gets too warm for proper fermentation. Right now the basement is perfect for ales, but it will not be by July.

In my pipeline I have an IPA, a Red Ale and my Metathesis Pale Ale. The IPA should be a pretty standard IPA, but the Red Ale deserves a little description.

First, I admit that this is a bastardized version of an Irish and American Red. The base malt (partial mash) was some Marris Otter I had sitting around. The red color (or what I hope will make it red) comes from a combination of 8 oz Special B and 8 oz Crystal (10°L). I got this idea off of forum somewhere, but lost track of what forum. So, I can't properly give it credit.

Next up: A wheat beer and a couple of stouts. I know, a stout is not really a summer beer, but my wife likes it (and so do I).

In the next few days, I hope to show you my latest improvement to my bar.

Memorial Day and a movie review

Happy Memorial day to everyone. And I mean the real Memorial Day. Not the one that has come to mean the "official start to Summer" or the "let's grill" or the "let's stick it to the American consumer by jacking up gas prices" Memorial day. No, I'm talking about remembering the men and women who fought and died for my country.

To those who have served: Thank you.

Since I have your attention, I strongly suggest you watch the movie Taking Chance. From imdb.com:

Based on real-life events, Lt. Col. Michael Strobl, a volunteer military escort officer, accompanies the body of 19-year-old Marine Chance Phelps back to his hometown of Dubois, Wyoming

What made this movie remarkable for me is that the movie was not a vehicle to glamorize war or to vilify war. It could have easily become a propaganda film. The director very deftly crafted a movie that was much more than that.

This movie is about dignity and respect. Specifically, it dealt with what happens after a Marine dies in battle. From the moment a soldier falls until his or her body is laid to rest, the body is treated with the greatest amount of dignity, honor and respect as a part of protocol, but also, as the movie showed, as a spontaneous gesture by those who are thankful.

Minnesota weather

On Saturday, I planted tomatoes and peppers in my garden. By Sunday morning they were all dead due to frost [a frost that was never predicted, thank you very much]. About 48 hours later it was 95°F. To add insult to injury, on Tuesday it was 100°F in one part to the state and 34°F in another. Stupid MN weather.

I replanted my tomatoes and peppers today. If they don't survive, I'm moving to Oklahoma.

My verdict

Relating to my last post.... I have decided to give my student the A-.

I appreciate all of the comments. It was a bit unfair to ask for input based on essentially zero information.

In the end, I needed to consider whether she was an A student despite this technicality. The bulk of her work justifies the A-.

Grades are a tricky thing. For many of us teachers (but obviously not all), grades still mean something. They are a indication of the student's mastery of the material. This could become a very long post, but let me just say, an A in one of my courses means the student has the highest level of competence and mastery of material in that course. I only give As to students that deserve them. Many students don't like that policy.

Finish line in sight

I've got my Biochemistry final to grade (mark), Organic and Biochem labs to grade (mark) and then I am done. I will submit my grades and put this semester behind me... sort of.

******

Units are important. A number means nothing without units. Understanding units is important. Units will also tell you how to do a problem or at least tell you if you set it up correctly. I require all answers to have units on exams and homework. If not, the student will not get full credit.

I had a student, a good student, lose 8 points on the final exam because she forgot units for two answers. No big deal, right? Sadly, this will mean the difference between an B+ or an A– for the course. If she would have gotten 8 more points on the final she would have gotten an A– instead of a B+.

What do you think? Should I give her the A–?


I'll give you my final decision tomorrow.

Final exam writing break

This isn't a study break, but a final exam writing break. I'm almost done with my Organic final and I thought I'd take a break and post two things.
*****

First, remember the Big and Easy Bottle Brew I told you about? Well, I followed the directions and brewed me up some beer in a plastic bottle. After about 3 weeks a friend and I cracked open our bottles. Verdict: crap, crap, crappity crap poop. First of all, I didn't expect much. I got exactly what I expected. It was fizzy; it was sulfury; it was undrinkable. It had all the hallmarks of bad homebrew. This is the type of thing that turns people of to homebrew. I barely consumed a pint. But then, how could I drink that beer when I had my own beer on tap. See:

Second, Happy Mother's day all of you mothers out there. We have a tradition in our house that we take Mom out for a picnic on Mother's Day. In Minnesota this time of year, most of the crabapple trees are in full bloom. Our tradition involves having the picnic under the same tree every year. It is a beautiful tree and with a gentle breeze, we get rained on by flower petals. It is quite picturesque.

This year we got all loaded up and headed to the park only to find a dirt patch where the tree once stood, where our tree once stood. At some time since last summer, the tree was cut down and replaced with a pine tree. How sad. We walked past the dirt patch with a melancholy stroll, heaving a despondent sigh and found a new tree. Actually, we found a stand of three flowering trees. There would be safety in numbers for our continuing tradition.

And now...introducing....

The thing that will change my life forever.

BEHOLD!!!!

I'm so excited, I haven't been able to tell if this will lead to my certain doom. For now, who cares.

Another look:

I have three beers on tap right now. A bitter, a stout and a pale ale.

I'm so happy. My bar is now complete.*

NO!

life changing moment... coming soon

I recently promised a story about a recent life-changing moment. I didn't forget. Things are just getting really busy, what with the imminent end of the semester and all (3 days and then finals). I promise I'll tell it soon.

Let me whet your appetite: This life-changing thing will probably contribute to my downfall on many different levels. It is related to my hobby run amok. This thing could be used to kill mjenks.

Until then, watch me "blow up" shit:



Only four stars???? YouTube users suck!!!

YYZ

Name me a better drummer. Whoever it is, you're wrong!
