@mattblaze Thank goodness I got a big rectangular parallelepiped of toilet paper rolls yesterday!

Having called out to tsort from a GNUmakefile to order library builds, I'm taking emotional damage from this thread.

Amazon East being down resulted in an annoying meeting being canceled because everyone was screaming^W scrambling on fixing things
My evil plan was a success^U
@ignaloidas @whitequark Oh, you definitely have airlocks for active fermentation containers.
The trick is when you have the fermented beer/cider/mead/whatever and want to save it for storage. If you just bulk store it in, say, a Cornelius keg, you can carbonate it directly by putting it under direct CO2 pressure and having it absorb it.
But if you want smaller containers for travel, gifting, whatever then a typical home-brewer will carbonate in the bottle or growler by just adding a bit of brewer's sugar before bottling and letting the remaining live yeast condition it in bottle. Works fine, unless you misjudge/mismeasure the residual sugar of your brew and end up with enough yeast-food for them to break the container.

@ignaloidas @whitequark Many a home brewer has a tale of bottles or worse exploding. I lost a .5gallon ‘growler’ by failing to periodically release the pressure. The spray of glass and still fermenting beer from an inconvenient shelf was annoying, but no injuries. (Did damage the city’s water meter, or at least the wireless transmitter on it, resulting in one free month of water before they replaced it…). The growlers next to that one were happy to have their pressure released…
(Also not nearly as big a mess as when I *dropped* a carboy with 5gallons of fresh hot wort, but that had nothing to do with pressure, only normal over confidence)
@mwl Ah yes, "try to kill Merlin^WMerle Corey day"
@whitequark Sharps call to sharps
@miodvallat Ah, so the 'f' in 'sfip' is 'first'!
