"All right, brain. You don't like me and I don't like you, but let's just do this and I can get back to killing you with beer." - Homer Simpson
All right, I have a question. I made this up a few days ago and now it is a yellow color. Looks nothing like the Apple juice I started out with. This is my first cider so....did I do something wrong or is that normal? Any help is appreciated!
Haha what did you put in there? That yellow blanket may also contribute to the color a smidgen...
I think all the yeast in suspension cloud it up quite a bit and give it that yellow hue.
Total n00b. Please be gentle :)
I followed the recipe! I don't know what the heck is going on. I don't think the blanket is affecting the color. Also, is there supposed to be a Krausen cause there's not. The airlock is bubbling though. Here is a before photo....looks normal! Should I dump this and not waste my time. Help!
It's fine and it will clear. If you're hellbent on dumping it, then send it to me. I've made 5 gallons before and currently have three 5-gallon buckets fermenting to fill a half barrel. All looked like yours once fermentation kicked off. You really need to switch to decaf.
Just never made a cider so I was a bit shocked when I peeked at it and saw the orange juice. I will ride it out though, thanks for the help. I wasn't looking forward to dumping all that out.

Super Hospitality - Colombian Style
Trip Start
Jan 20, 2004
Trip End
Loading Map
Show trip route
Hide lines
At 4:00 am we were rudely awakened by a security guard, informing us that camping was not allowed at this site. As we weren't disturbing anyone, we asked for a few hours reprieve, promising to leave before 7:00 in the morning. "Absolutely no chance" replied the guard, threatening to call in the army. We headed out on to the dark, winding road, looking for anywhere suitable to stop and catch another hour or two of sleep. Thirty minutes later, we came upon a camping and picnic area. Again, no one was in sight and the gates were locked, but we found a level spot for the van just outside the park. After half an hour of sleep, yet another security guard knocked on the van window and informed us that parking outside the gates was illegal. Fortunately, this time he relented somewhat and permitted us to stay where we were for another hour, so by 6:30 we were back on the road.
The following night couldn't have been more of a contrast. Although Hostal San Nicholas wasn't set up for camping, owner Don Sixto happily directed us to a grassy area where we could set up for the night, and gave us access to very clean showers and toilets. Our arrival in fact led him to thinking about setting up a camping area next to the hostal and he was delighted with the suggestions we provided So much so, that the next morning we were presented with huge bowls of fruit salad and freshly squeezed lemonade. We found it difficult to say goodbye, especially to the employee's gorgeous four year old daughter who was determined to join us on the remainder of our trip - Karen was still crying as we drove away!
Zipaquir� is rather an unimaginative town, but not so its claim to fame - the massive underground Salt Cathedral. After experiencing the horrendous conditions in the silver mines of Potos� in Bolivia, we were somewhat sceptical about actually finding a beautiful edifice deep in the salt mines of Zipaquir�, but decided to give it a try. Absolutely awesome!! Guide Rafael Guerrero spent two hours with us, masterfully illustrating how the miners had initially carved out tunnels with the idea of constructing a new cathedral much deeper than a previous one that was closed in 1992 for safety reasons. Seventy five metres long and eighteen metres high, the cathedral with its exquisite carvings can accommodate 8,400 people. How phenomenal it would have been to experience a concert here!
Back to reality - our water pump was getting progressively noisier, so we were rather anxious to reach Bogot�. We contacted Santiago and Camila - a young Colombian couple who had previously travelled through South America and Africa in a Landrover and Unimog respectively. Although we had never met them, they invited us to camp in their garden, even suggesting that we take our van to their mechanic. Little did either of us know that an overnight stay would turn into a complete week - especially as our arrival coincided with yet another long weekend!
Although we generally try to avoid large cities, we found Bogot� to be very European-like and spent several pleasant days exploring its attractions. Taking the teleferico up Cerro de Monserrate at 3,160 metres we had a superb view of this clean, well organized city of eight million. After identifying the older colonial barrio of La Candelaria from above, we walked back down the mountain to reconnoitre the area around the Plaza de Bol�var on foot. The Museo de Oro is apparently the most important gold museum in the world, exhibiting pieces from all the major pre-Hispanic cultures in Colombia. Yes, the display was impressive, but we were even more excited when we arrived at the Italian-style Teatro Col�n just in time for a noon hour concert by the University Symphony Ensemble. We also enjoyed exploring the 'Casa de la Moneda' and the 'Botero Gallery' housed in beautifully restored colonial buildings, and a superb display of African photography by H�ctor Acebes in the central library.
Oh yes, about the water pump. We had already contacted Frank Condelli in Almonte and discovered that the $50 pump would cost almost $300 in shipping charges - ouch!! Thus, after the long weekend Santiago took us to his mechanic Marco, to see what miracles he might be able to perform. Within just a couple of hours, the water pump had been removed and a replacement bearing had been located and installed, all for the grand total of no charge except for the bearing. Now isn't this taking hospitality a bit too far?? Oh, but the story didn't end there. While in the workshop we discovered that our rear shocks needed replacing, so off we went to the nearby "taller de amortiguadores" for a couple more hours. Within minutes of paying our bill and heading home, we heard shocking noises coming from - well, of course, the new shocks! Back to the garage to check out and tighten the bolts. All was well this time until about 10 km away from the garage when the noise was back again.....better forget our plans of leaving Bogot� in the morning. We returned to the garage for a third time when they ultimately discovered that they had used shocks with imperial sized bushes, while the van is metric. Third time lucky?
Finally everything seemed to be fine - except for the puddle of transmission oil on the floor under DC3. Back to Marco's garage, as this is where they had changed the transmission pan gasket the day before to cure a slight leak. Upon closer examination, they discovered that the leak wasn't coming from the gasket at all, but rather from the seal between the transmission and the gearbox. At this point we all decided that it was probably better to search out a VW specialist who could not only replace the seal but also give DC3 a good tune-up. We're still awaiting the final results!
As for Santiago and Camila, they have been nothing less than fantastic! Together we sampled Bogot�'s restaurants, took in a local movie "El Colombian Dream", went to the opening night of an photographic and art exhibition (Santiago is a well known artist and had exhibits in both), prepared meals and ate together, and all the while shared incredible travel stories. We fully expect them to visit us in Canada one day, but are dubious as to whether our Canadian welcome will ever compare to their super hospitality - Colombian style!

In one giant fusion of music power, The Foo Fighters will be coming together with Deadmau5, Chris Brown, David Guetta and Lil' Wayne for an electronic music tribute at this year's Grammy Awards on Sunday.
It seems a bit weird to see the Foos in there, considering how old school they are, but then again they're nominated for Best Remix for their single Rope, which was spliced up by Deadmau5. Better yet, the performance will be on an open air stage outside the Staples Center in Los Angeles. Anybody remember when they caused a minor earthquake during a performance in New Zealand last year? Let's see how loud they'll get here.

Continued with the bits 'n pieces.
At first glance, the supplied hardware looked good. However.... I trial fitted the wings and tried to use the supplied bolts, Very dinky looking, with plenty of space on them to have a good grip. Unfortunately, it appears that one is metric, and one is imperial! No biggy, a trip to the LHS will remedy that, but still... Then this evening, I was going to fit and glue in the horizontal stab. Trial fitting, a bit of sanding here and there to get a good horizontal fit, and carefully lifted the covering of the center. Now, as most of us know, fitting the elevator connecting rod after glueing in the stab can be a problem, if not impossible. So I looked in the goodies bag for the connecting rod. Nowhere to be found. Then I looked in the instructions, where there's a picture of all the components; no connecting rod to be seen. Then I looked in the pictorial; NO CONNECTING ROD!!! How do they expect the elevator to work is a mystery to me. The elevator halves are prepared (including a pre-drilled hole) for a 2mm rod, so I cut a piece of 2mm rod from the spares drawer, two 90* bends, and presto! I trial fitted the stab again, and measured the stab tip distance to the middle of the fuse's nose several times to make sure it was square. I then placed a piece of masking tape on the stab to mark the spot. Then it was simple a case of pulling out the stab, tape the connector rod in place, apply thick CA, and put the stab back on the line of the masking tape. ImagesView all Images in thread |
Jul 14, 2010, 02:59 PM | |
Vertical stab was CA'd in without a hitch. Some slight sanding to get it straight.
I'm waiting for a parcel from Hobby City with CA, applicators, props, prop adaptor etc so I still can't work on the hinges. In the meantime I decided to do the wheelpants. After figuring out how to fit them (never done this before) quite a bit of headscratching because a. the instructions are cr*p and b. the bag of goodies is becoming a puzzle in itself. Which screw/nut/bolt belongs to what and goes where, and a mixed bag of imperial and metric to boot.... Anyway, I think I got it figured out and did several trial fitting, also to measure where to drill the holes in the wheelpants. When I was satisfied I sprayed them yellow (realy didn't like the idea of white wheelpants) spraypaint, and some glossy varnish. Tomorrow I'll attach it all to the fuse. Also most of tail wheel assembly was done. Obviously the final fit will be when the rudder gets attached. ImagesView all Images in thread

can't get knoppix cd to run
I have my xp set to boot from cd, yet when I turn the computer on with the cd already in I can here it spin yet it doesn't start up; my computer just goes to where it asks if I want to start in normal mode or safe mode.
So I unloaded the iso into a seperate folder, then burned all the files to cd.
This time I here the cd spin but the computer boots straight to windows.
Does anyone know what might cause my knoppix cd not to run?
Thank for any imput.
11-12-2007 #2
When you first boot it up it should tell you which button to press to get to your BIOS. Push it. Somewhere there should be an option so it boots from the CD drive first.

If it was a bad burn, here's another HowTo that has helped lots of users get their Linux CD burned properly:
Be sure you don't make the CD bootable yourself, because the ISO burning process takes care of that step automatically.oz

Well where to begin I have a lil girl who is 6 , her dad isn't in
the picture at all . I have 2 part time jobs and absolutly enjoy my
time off but something is still missing. Um... I'm a published
author and a classically trained cellist, I love to cook and listen
to music and read. I guess I really just wish i could have someone
to be there for me for a change and not have to constantly be on
beck and call for everyone in my life. So to sum it up really I
just want someone to make me smile again. I love to travel and have
been around the world. I'm a huge history buff and love the
outdoors. Grew up with parents who encouraged to try everything at
least once. I played on the soccer team in high school and was on
the swim team. I guess you could call me Suzie home maker with an
edge. Oh and Ive beat cancer twice. And I grew up in Japan. .
I am crazed, passionate, and loyal

That is a good question. I guess they could claim mis-use. Just playing devil's advocate. But boots like that should be able to handle repeated ties! Honestly, thanks to this forum, I have seen this before and for that reason I try not to yank on my speedhooks. Besides...I loathe speedhooks, but sometimes you just don't have a choice.
Just curious - how come you loathe speedhooks? Is it an aesthetic thing?

[show]Desert EagleEdit
The Desert Eagle, also know as the Deagle, is the only secondary available in the game, along with the Glock 19. The gun carries .50 cal rounds making it a powerful weapon and has decent accuracy. However, the gun itself has considerable disadvantages such as low ammo cap, (7 rounds per clip.) and slow firerate.
The AK-47 is an extremely powerful assault rifle. It has extreme power but its very inaccurate after multiple shots and has high recoil. The AK-47's outstounding popularity is due to its efficiency in Counter -Strike. The AK-47 is the most popular weapon of Terrorists.
M4A1is an moderately powerful carbine. Its high power, combined with its incredibly controllable recoil and spread, make it an effective AK47 counterpart. The M4A1 can be mastered for every situation. For these reasons, the M4A1 is one of the most popular weapons in CSP.
Artic Warfare PoliceEdit

Slim Twig / Sic Alps / U.S. Girls
Double Double Land, Toronto, ON, October 22
From the steely grey soundworld of her early releases on Siltbreeze, Meg Remy's U.S. Girls project has followed a seamless trajectory into the triumphant fanfare of her upcoming long-player, Gem. Backed by an all-star band featuring members of Zacht Automaat and Onakabazien, she commanded the stage like Yoko Ono possessed with a flawless mix of future classics. If a swooner like "Another Color" or the heart-wrenching "Rosemary" fail to change the room's temperature, you might need to check your pulse.
This would be a tough act to follow for anyone, but Sic Alps attacked their long-awaited Toronto debut like a teenage shredder let loose in the guitar store. All of the classic rock connotations that come along with that were present, right down to a straight-faced cover of the Who's "Seeker," but it wasn't all Q107 at drive time. On record, the Bay Area band are a whole other bag of wax, yet this rollicking set found them in the sweet spot between the stadium and the 5 a.m. wasted basement jam.
The night's final slot was left to Slim Twig, and the spotlight kid kept the hits comin'. Joined by the same A-squad backing band as U.S. Girls, he launched straight into selections from his recent release, Sof' Sike and tantalizing previews of his second 2012 LP, A Hound at the Hem. The moment of Zen was an extended vamp through "Madeline Has a Body," complete with Robert Quine-style six-string freak-outs. Take Slim's advice and bring this party back home.
Coming back soon! If our developer were more machine than man they'd already be here. Useless meatsack.
For now, please send any and all feedback to [email protected].

Villa | 2 bedrooms | sleeps 8
Key Info |
One of two new villas built in 2013 at the beach of South China Sea in central Vietnam. Distance to the beach is 3 meters, distance to the pool is 5 meters. The villa has a fully equipped kitchen so you can cook anything you want. There is a TV in the living room.
The villa is located in a nature reserve, Xuan Dai Bay, which was instituted by the Government of Vietnam in spring 2011. The area is famous for its beautiful bays, islands and reefs.The people here live off fishing out at reefs at night. They use lights to attract the fish. From the villa it looks like a long string of lights - 100's. The host speaks English and Swedish.
The house is located in the small fishing village Ganh Do, which means "red reef." Here you have the opportunity to experience the real Vietnam, everything from the local market to the small shops located along Highway 1A at walking distance from the resort. The village pagoda, temple, is worth a visit. There is a nice garden.
The beautiful beach invites you to strolling, swimming and playing in the beautiful setting and the lovely breeze. The slightly wet sand is similar to a road - totally smooth and moderately hard - no traffic! If you want you can use the pool 8x6 m and lie down in the comfortable chairs beside.
There is much to see and experience on your own in the area. I'll be glad to give you suggestions about what to see at walking distance. You come very close to the locals and their way of life. The local market in the village is spared from tourism and novelties and there is instead genuine products. There you can buy meat, fish, fruit, vegetables etcetera.
The local buses are cheap and have good frequency. With them you can easily explore the nearest towns. The nearest airport is about 45 km south of Tuy Hoa (TBB) with about 180 000 inhabitants. Recently they have put in two modern trains with air conditioning that go all the way from Ho Chi Minh City to Tua Hoa / Quy Nhon.
It's cheap to fly in Vietnam, both from Saigon (SGN) and Hanoi (HAN). Tuy Hoa is the closest airport to the south (45 km ), Quy Nhon from the north (65 km). From Tuy Hoa / Quy Nhon you take a taxi to our resort, less than hour and a bit more than an hour respectivly. A taxi can be provided when you arrive.

Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds
Chasing Yesterday
The Scottish singer-songwriter's enjoyed an intriguing career arc, from rather bland young man in the James Morrison mould to roaring calypso good-time guy on 2009's Sunny Side Up to this. And what is this? Nutini's now stationed somewhere between Van Morrison and Al Green, and reaching up to Sly Stone. There's barely a note of Caustic Love that couldn't have been recorded before 1975, so impeccably is it rooted in bassy Superfly funk and Muscle Shoals horns, any digital techniques disdained. It's all very, hmmm, authentic.
Whatever his antecedents, Nutini goes about his business with some panache. Caustic Love convinces in its revivalist bravado, with Scream (Funk My Life Up) a lusty intense rumble, One Day an on-your-knees Otis Redding pleader and Better Man a fluid, whiskey-soaked folk-soul groove. It'd be a tough old sod who couldn't find something to enjoy in Nutini's pinpoint appropriations.
When you hear him huskily coo the title of Someone Like You exactly the way Rod Stewart rasps the same phrase on Reason To Believe, it suddenly hits home – Nutini is the new Rod. It's up to you whether you want your trad-soul pure or filtered through a blue-eyed boy's acute tastes, but you can't deny these lads do it with charm.

The book contest has now been running for a week, and I got a lot of great responses.

One of the great things about having a website is that occasionally people send me free stuff, out of the blue. For instance, a British publisher named Harriman House sent me three copies of The Life & Death of Rochester Sneath by Humphry Berkeley. Since I don't have a use for three copies of the book, I've decided to give the two extra copies away.
But first, what is the book about? It documents a classic British public school hoax from the 1940s. Headmasters at elite British…

Speaking of Loch Ness, I've haven't seen any word on how the Virgin sacrifice at the Loch went off. I'll try to find out when I'm there.

I've been visiting family in Virginia this week, so posting has been pretty light... and will continue to be light until July 11th. Just in case anyone was wondering.

Christian Science Monitor: Historic Hoaxes —
If it weren't for the inconvenient fact that no one has a clue who I am, I'd almost feel famous, because I was interviewed not only by Wired, but also by the Christian Science Monitor, for this article. My mother always says that she could have had a son who was a doctor or a lawyer, but instead she gets a son who's a hoax expert. Well, it may not pay much, but at least I get interviewed a lot once a year, every April 1st.

New Homepage Design —
Anyone who visits here regularly will notice that I've changed the design of the homepage. I do this fairly often, never being very satisfied with my layout skills. I thought the last design was a little too busy, and some of the images were using up too much bandwidth. So my goal this time was to make the page more minimalist and get rid of the bandwidth-hogging images. I also created a new seal for the Museum of Hoaxes (visible at the right of the banner above). It shows a vegetable…

April Fools Day —
Because April Fool's Day is fast approaching, I revamped my list of the top 100 April Fool's Day hoaxes of all time. I juggled around the top ten a bit to better reflect the popular favorites. Most significantly, I added Sweden's 1962 classic 'Instant Color TV' hoax into the list, placing it at number three. Plus, by using pMachine I added the capability for readers to add comments to any one of the April Fools.

Muse Magazine —
This week I started a new job as contributing editor to Muse Magazine. It's a magazine for young teenagers (9-14 years old) about science, history, and the arts, but I don't think that description quite captures its quirky nature. It runs articles on everything from 'Weird tales of the subway' to 'Could you live forever' (which is in the current issue). Its mascot is a trickster named Kokopelli (from Native American mythology) who loves to play pranks, which might explain why they were…

Upgrading the Weblog —
I've finally taken the plunge and upgraded this weblog to a 'real' weblog, complete with permalinks, categories, and the ability to add comments. I'm using pMachine to achieve all this. I'm a little wary of letting people add comments, having encountered huge amounts of comment spam when I previously had a guestbook (especially, as I noted somewhere else, from 'cruddy german hotels'... I still can't figure out why they, in particular, turned out to be such a plague). But I'll see how it…

2013: Irish actor Peter O'Toole, perhaps best known for playing T. E. Lawrence in "Lawrence of Arabia," dies in his sleep at age 81 in London, England. O'Toole holds the record for most Academy Award nominations without a win, earning nods for "Lawrence of Arabia," "Becket," "The Lion in Winter," "Goodbye, Mr. Chips," "The Ruling Class," "The Stunt Man," "My Favorite Year" and "Venus." He acknowledged in 2012 that his acting career had ended, bidding a "profoundly grateful farewell" to the industry.
George Washington dies, a spacecraft flies by Venus for the first time, Bob Dylan releases his first single, President George W. Bush ducks flying shoes, and tragedy hits Sandy Hook, all on this day.

A shot in the arm for online vendors
The new BentoWeb project boosts Thai e-commerce on social media
- Published: 26 Jun 2013 at 00.00 | Viewed: 4,328 | Comments: 1
- Newspaper section: Life
- Writer: Sasiwimon Boonruang
Social media sites are not just about socialising. For those who want to have stores on Facebook _ not just a showroom, but a shopping cart where buyers have convenient choices of payment _ the new BentoWeb should fit your needs.
Of the three million small- and medium-enterprises in Thailand, more than 9,000 have e-commerce registration. Many of these e-starters find managing an e-commerce website can be difficult and painful. Many of them therefore turn to social media, Facebook in particular, even though the platform was not designed especially for e-commerce.
E-commerce solution BentoWeb was designed to serve entrepreneurs and individuals who want to sell their products online.
BentoWeb was created to help e-vendors monetise on social media platforms in a multi-screen environment. It is an instant shopping system for every digital touchpoint.
The web prepares the shops for the vendor on a personal computer, smartphone, tablet and Facebook page.
The system is very simple. The vendor will be given a store URL _ for example, pojimojimall.bentoweb.com _ then they put the link under the product picture and their storefront can adapt itself to any device: personal computer, smartphone or tablet.
The format will automatically fit in with Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest and Google+.
"No matter what kind of devices their customers are using, the shopping experience will always be optimised," said Nutthaseth Sirinanthananon, manager of Semantic Touch which developed BentoWeb.
He pointed out that in today's environment, customers need complete information before purchasing, and buying on Facebook is impulsive, but no one wants to give an address on Facebook.
A lot of products today are presented on social networks, but the vendors cannot sell their products or close the deal on Facebook because the program was not designed for e-commerce.
E-vendors need to catch up with changing consumer behaviour. The function of online marketing encompasses acquisition, engagement and monetisation.
Customers can view the products and the purchasing order can be done in less than a minute. Vendors can view invoice status, verification and delivery. Once their customers place the order, the system will issue the orders and inform the process of payment, the method of payment and issue the receipt to the merchants and their customers. In order to decrease chances of error, the system allows instant printing of mailing labels.
"This is the tool that fulfills online marketing functions and it's the mode that enables a great deal of local SMEs to simply have their presence in the world of e-commerce," said Nutthaseth.
So far, there are around 10,000 vendors using the freemium BentoWeb while some 300 have applied for the monthly paid versions (450-600 baht per month).
Over the next few weeks, store owners can manage their stores on-the-go with the BentoWeb mobile app, on both iOS and Android platforms. Vendors will be able to manage their back office on their smartphone, print, update stock and price items. The system runs as mobile optimisation, so everything can end up on a mobile device.
In addition, a loyalty scheme is essential for the survival of online retailers, so they need to offer redemption points in order to ensure customers keep coming back.
In a bid to introduce BentoWeb nationwide, the developer has partnered with Siam Commercial Bank and Counter Service to allow customers to pay at 7-Eleven stores. In the meantime, it is developing the BentoWeb Point of Sale system that integrates with credit card payment and cashier registration, bridging offline and online transactions.
Thai online vendors offer a great deal of good products, but lack branding and good packaging. BentoWeb can serve as a tool to promote Thai products, locally and internationally. Currently, there are more than 50,000 product items available on BentoWeb, from fashion and cosmetics to gadgets and electronics to books and stationery, and the company is now working on Bento Square, a "mall" of Thai shops.
BentoWeb offers a rating system to allow customers to assess shops. A-rated shops will be selected for the overseas market as BentoWeb plans to expand within Asia, starting with Singapore, Indonesia and Japan.

What should I say about this latest tear in our societal fabric, the young Black boy shot and killed in Florida because the self-assigned "neighborhood watch captain" thought he looked suspicious?

But this story hits me primarily as a mother. Squarely, like a fist, it hits me dead center in my chest. In that paramount role of my…

The bed was very comfortable and pillows were great. The restaurant/cafe served a surprisingly good selection and food quality was good and servings generous.
Would have loved to have some basic toiletries; toothbrush, toothpaste and shaving set.
Friendliness of staff
Drunken women stumbling on the way into breakfast
Staff very polite, room warm clean and comfortable. Delicious breakfast in the morning.
friendly staff, great selction of breakfast, comfortable beds, free car park, will definitely stay there again.
bath water not draining well, not free wifi
Great staff on reception and in breakfast room - only had one night, but would certainly stay here again.
We stay often with you in Slough as we have family nearby. Last year we wwnt elsewhere [Copthorne & Pinewood hotels] as parking was impossible during the room re-furbishment. We stay all day with family and return around 10pm or later each day. By then parking was almost impossible. But now it is fine and we will be staying with you many times again in future
Nothing it was all excellent!
Good location, short walk to station to go into London and easy for Legoland and Thorpe Park. Staff friendly, food good and great value, will definitely stay there again.
Nothing bad to say about it.
Francisco - waiter particularly helpful and went out of his way to ensure a good stay Evening meal on first night -superb
Breakfast on Day 1 no white bread, no orange juice Breakfast Day 2 - still no orange juice BUT NO MILK either!!! No sauasages - all gone, no brown bread and no scrambled egg - unacceptable
The staff at reception who helped us check in was really helpful and friendly. The bed is big and comfortable.
Several things were run out for breakfast which is not their fault so I would not blame them for this. But the staff who was explaining this situation to the customers was not friendly at all. He is just telling everyone that we have no milk and sausages without a apology.
The bed is comfortable and the breakfast buffet is delicious
Nothing to disliked
Fantastic welcome upon arrival with beverage offered. Arrived with my parents, staff changed room location so that we were on the same floor which was fantastic. Nothing was too much trouble. Breakfast was delicious with a variety to choose from, Kids loved it and kept going for 2nds and 3rds
Friendly staff. Good location. Nice food
Noisy doors bang too hard on main door rooms which must aggravate those still in bed
Lovely staff, room was perfect, best premier inn we've stayed in
The area wasn't the best at all, heater wouldn't turn off but asked reception and problem was sorted
The hotel receptionist who checked me in, the breakfast staff and the receptionist who checked me out were so friendly and helpful.
The staff were very helpful and the breakfast was a wonderful selection.
The room I had did not have a desk and was their 'last room'. As I was travelling to a job interview the use of a desk to sit at my laptop and work would have been very useful. The security chain on the door was missing and the in room heater/air conditioner didn't blow any cool air at all leaving the room very warm. Parking lot was a nightmare as there were some larger vans taking up 3-4 spaces.
selected porridge for breakfast but when I received it unfortunately for the amount of time I had waited [20mins] was not very hot at all.
easy to find , friendly staff , good food , comfortable
The staff was really helpful and nice. I had a couple of requests during the 4 days I stayed there, they dealt with them efficiently. The food at the restaurant was very good.
The hotel staff are very welcoming, in fact the PI Team have very good resources, which means there is never a long wait for anything in the hotel. The room was very clean and the bathroom like new. The bed is quite luxurious and one awoke refreshed from a good, peaceful nights sleep. Ideal location for the local trips and visits to family we had to make.
It was quite warm in the room and difficult to control the heating lower than 19 deg.C. When mentioning this on check out we were refunded one nights stay which adequately compensated.
Clean, cozy, comfy, roomy
Packed with dirty builders who obviously are staying there. Aircon was making weird noises periodically, waking up me 3 times a night
The location easy to find close to shops and amenities
Poor evening meal and waiting staff not helpful

So I have been reading through many threads on the technique of "Hop Whirlpooling" which is the addition of hops after the boil. There is much disagreement on the proper way to do this. Some brewers just toss in pellets at flame out, start their wort chiller and proceed as usual. Others put the hops in a muslin bag and whirlpool them for 20, 30 or even 60 minutes before even starting the chiller. Still others let the wort cool below about 160F before even adding the hops to prevent the volatile aromas from escaping. So what gives? 1. What is the best way to add aroma and flavor with whirlpool hops? Loose pellets or leaf? Just toss them into the wort or place in a hop bag and remove once chilled? At flame out or once wort is below 160F? 2. Do they need to sit in the hot wort for a period of time before chilling? How long? 3. If you do put 1-3 ounces of hops in at flame out do you have to account for them increasing the IBU's of your recipe?
Next up: Belgian Wit Primary 1&2: Citric Acid IPA (All Citra) Primary 3&4: Amber Rain Amber Ale Bottle Conditioning/drinking: German Kolsch, Osage Pale Ale.
Well, as you noticed opinions vary on this. To answer #1, I"d say you have to decide for yourself. I can tell you what I do and what works for me, but that may not be what someone else likes. If I'm making a 5 gallon batch, my hop stand will be about 10 minutes before I start chilling. BUT I recirculate while chilling, so it will take another 15 minutes before it gets to under 120 degrees or so. So it's about a 20-25 minute hop stand that begins at flame out. For a 10 gallon batch, I do a very similar thing but I start chilling right away since it takes a lot longer for it to get below 180 with the recirculating. They don't increase the IBUs in any measurable way, so you don't account for them in the IBUs, instead they can replace some of the late hops in the boil. Even if they do increase the IBUs somewhat, there is a lot more hops flavor and aroma so the perceived bitterness is lower and smoother anyway.
This article just came out in BYO. It is a good overview. I was most interested in the evaluation of hops utilization..which I took to mean there is some modest transfer of bitterness. I just tried it last weekend, so my results are not yet in.http://byo.com/component/k2/item/2808-hop-stands
I've had solid results adding at 160F then slowing the chiller down for effectively a 30min warm steep. Really delivers that resiny mouthfeel.
