My 2nd try at #brewing #mead. I came to it through " The Art of #Fermentation" by Sandor Katz, who persuaded me that it's very simple (as long as you're not perfectionist). In my first batch I didn't have fermentation caps but instead I just drank it fresh after 10 d. I liked the only slightly alcoholic, sweet and yeasty taste. This time I bought some caps because I don't drink often and don't want to pressure myself to having to finish it before it acidifies. But already had a fresh cup :).

Trying a home #fermentation of cauliflower with carrots, garlic and dill in a 2% brine, curious how it will turn out. Recently I was amazed by how good brined Brüssel sprouts had been. There are many ways to make veggies exciting. I like cooking, but utilizing the magic of lactic acid bacteria is great too. #pickling #diy #veggies #food

Today I bottled some of my recent #homebrew's for an occasion tomorrow. 3 bottles of one weak old #Makgeolli and one bottle of 10 day old to young #mead.

I am quite proud of the #Makgeolli fermentation (막걸리) that I started last Saturday. The daily stirring fills me with joy. I am fascinated by #Korean #fermentation culture and finally I went beyond #Kimchi. I like the store bought one but the exported ones are pasteurized, so I'm curious how the self-made will compare. Should be done by next weekend. The hardest part was to find the Makgeolli starter culture called "Nuruk", had to order it online. 1/N

I'm experimenting with the #emacs client mastodon.el but it's still rough. Found that it only allows for tag/mention auto-completions via #company-mode instead of extending completion-at-point-functions (capfs), which are built into emacs and supported out-of-the box or more prettily by #corfu. Luckily, emacs is hackable. I used the #cape package by minad to convert the company-backends to capfs and added a function-advice to disable company and enable those capfs. See

Saw a huge flock of migrating #birds over filling the sky in #Bonn, might need to zoom in to see anything. Some people on the street said those are #Cranes, not sure if that's true.
