[11:23:08] <FatPhil> ~gday TheMightyBuzzard
[11:23:11] * exec flatulantly ejaculates an A cup of rocks at TheMightyBuzzard
[11:23:19] <TheMightyBuzzard> ~gday FatPhil
[11:23:20] * exec sneakily separates a tower of cheese from FatPhil
[11:24:13] <TheMightyBuzzard> think ima start another batch o booze here in a couple weeks after i get back from vacation
[11:28:15] <FatPhil> You'll have my tower of cheese when you pry it from my cold, dead, stinky hands!
[11:29:45] <takyon> what are you making tmb
[11:30:15] <FatPhil> Got an amazing whisky-flavoured cheddar currently. (Hmm, might be whiskey, as it might be an Irish cheddar. Our slice had no label on the wax, so don't know exactly what it is)
[11:30:28] <TheMightyBuzzard> just cider i think. do have the mixings for some sort of grape wine too though.
[11:30:53] <takyon> I finished up my blackberry mead and I want to do a hopped mead next
[11:31:05] <TheMightyBuzzard> hopped mead?!
[11:31:16] <takyon> yeah
[11:31:32] <TheMightyBuzzard> that's crazy talk. let me know how it turns out.
[11:31:48] <takyon> it could be weird if I have no way to carbonate it
[11:32:00] <takyon> I'm also making kimchi in almost 2 gallon batches
[11:32:36] <TheMightyBuzzard> i can't back ya on that. i prefer my cabbage unfermented.
[11:33:16] <takyon> get some kimchi fried rice sometime and then tell me that
[11:34:58] <FatPhil> Proper stinky kimchi is wonderful. We haven't made any for a couple of years now, but used to make it all the time.
[11:35:25] * TheMightyBuzzard shakes his head
[11:35:27] <FatPhil> if you're doing 2 gallon batches, how/where do you store it?
[11:35:54] <takyon> I just use a 2 gallon HDPE bucket with a lid on top and cheesecloth on top of that to block the gaps
[11:36:03] <takyon> might switch to using an airlock but I would need a lid
[11:36:14] <takyon> then when it's done, I stick it in half gallon mason jars in the fridge
[11:36:25] <FatPhil> but for temperature regulation, do you have a separate fridge?
[11:36:33] <takyon> no
[11:37:08] <FatPhil> Now I have 2 flats, I can use the office for kimchi prep, and home for beer storage
[11:37:15] <FatPhil> But I wouldn't want the two in the same fridge!
[11:37:21] <takyon> why?
[11:37:27] <TheMightyBuzzard> i do. one for groceries and one for leftovers and frozen fish storage.
[11:37:49] <FatPhil> because I want my beer free of the smells of lactobacillus fermentation thank you
[11:38:09] <takyon> I don't get it
[11:38:19] <takyon> there are many contaminants where I do my work
[11:38:21] <TheMightyBuzzard> ?! do you not keep your beer in sealed containers?
[11:38:23] <TheMightyBuzzard> smoke break
[11:38:24] <TheMightyBuzzard> nicotine++
[11:38:24] <Bender> karma - nicotine: 424
[11:39:06] <takyon> sanitize everything nicely and I don't think you will have a lacto problem in the beer
[11:39:18] <FatPhil> of course, beer's in bottles, but the stink of a good kimchi will even make the labels smell
[11:39:29] <FatPhil> I don't want that as I take a bottle out of the frige.
[11:39:59] <takyon> the kimchi is in a glass mason jar in the fridge that I keep shut
[11:40:17] <takyon> it doesn't really smell. I rinse the outside of it whenever I am done loading it from the bucket
[11:40:38] <takyon> it doesn't explode or anything because it's in the fridge
[11:40:39] <FatPhil> Ahj, the mason jar might make a difference - we always do it in cheap loose-sealing plastic pots
[11:41:11] <takyon> yeah this is a standard wide mouth half gallon mason jar we're talking about. seals pretty effectively
[11:41:41] <takyon> https://www.amazon.com
[11:41:43] <upstart> ^ 03Amazon.com: Ball Wide Mouth Half Gallon 64 Oz Jars with Lids and Bands, Set of 6: Canning Jars: Kitchen & Dining
[11:41:57] <FatPhil> we do get other delicatessen things in properly sealing plastic pots, perhaps we should favour those for kimchi storage.
[11:42:02] <takyon> costs about $10-12 for 6 at your local hardware shop
[11:42:22] <takyon> I've also used these half gallon mason jars to store mead, but now I'm sticking it in bottles
[11:43:31] <FatPhil> mead deserves bottles.
[11:43:34] <takyon> if you make kimchi with 2 large cabbages in a 2 gallon bucket like I did, it should fill 3 half gallon jars, a quart jar, with some left over
[11:45:03] <FatPhil> Our preferred vegetable for leafy kimchi is Chinese Leaf, and we used to do about 2/3rds of a medium sized one for kimchi. Frilly third went in fresh salad, we don't like the thin stuff so much in the kimchi
[11:45:41] <takyon> I just use green cabbage (the european kind), with carrots and green onions
[11:45:54] <takyon> and the sauce ingredients, which includes ginger/garlic/onion
[11:45:57] <FatPhil> I guess we were making 800g-1kg batches.
[11:48:25] <FatPhil> we used to get 1kg bags of paprika from korea, and then just used garlic and a bit of ginger for spicing.
[11:48:53] <FatPhil> 1kg of paprika lasted us nearly 3 years!
[11:49:18] <takyon> this is basically the recipe and proportions I use: https://minimalistbaker.com
[11:49:19] <upstart> ^ 03Easy Vegan Kimchi | Minimalist Baker Recipes
[11:49:38] <takyon> I use 1 whole cup of crushed red chili flakes with 2 cabbages
[11:49:56] <FatPhil> Ah, we also used to put salted fishy stuff in the sauce, when we had it.
[11:50:22] <FatPhil> No idea what it was, there wasn't a single word of English on the label!
[11:50:54] <takyon> yikes
[11:51:26] <takyon> I might start expanding the vegetables I add. probably starting with radishes
[11:51:36] <cmn32480> ~gday #soylent
[11:51:38] * exec overratedly merges a barrage of hot gas with #soylent
[11:51:41] <takyon> hey cmn
[11:51:52] <cmn32480> hows it going takyon?
[11:52:01] <cmn32480> morning FatPhil
[11:52:16] <takyon> good. I read a couple of nice articles that I subbed. and I get to eat gallons of kimchi
[11:52:18] <FatPhil> one of our clients was taiwanese, and sometimes we did small jobs in return for payments in exotic food parcels! (Don't tell the taxman!)
[11:52:40] <FatPhil> ~gday cmn32480
[11:52:42] * exec half-heartedly gives birth to a buzzfeed list of chump change for cmn32480
[11:53:06] * cmn32480 has never had kimchi
[11:53:57] <FatPhil> takyon: experiment with a chinese leaf next time you do a batch - it has a very different texture from hard cabbages.
[11:54:51] <FatPhil> For crunchier kimchi, rather than a harder cabbage, I'd just use one of the radishes...
[11:55:06] <FatPhil> Daikon
[11:55:59] <FatPhil> Man, that goes super fucking stinky. My g/f (who kinda got me into kimchi in the first place) was frightened of it every time I made it.
[11:56:34] <FatPhil> Bloody excellent once you're past the mist of horror.
[11:59:10] <takyon> what's the difference between daikon and regular radishes
[12:00:04] <cmn32480> !grab FatPhil

[12:03:34] <takyon> yikes, Reuters!
[12:04:25] <boru> Yikes, you never see those sorts of headlines when Western countries do it.
[12:05:25] <FatPhil> takyon: daikon's more consistent in its taste, and is a convenient size.
[12:06:10] <FatPhil> I've had the small reddish salad radishes that have been bitingly hot like horseradish (in the UK), and others that have been almost tasteless and watery (in the middle east)
[12:06:28] <takyon> I'll probably use that first kind. that is what is common in america
[12:06:38] <takyon> small, red, comparatively cheap
