  • Hah, when I lived in the US, I was 100% certain that if a road has limit, I can always, in worst imaginable conditions, just nail it and go with limit (I lived down south, ok, in Texas, but traveled all the thing).

    Now in Europe this is absolutely not the case. I don’t mean Autobahns even, just regular roads in Finland are, well, just slow down if not sure, ok?

















  • Awesome design! I’ll drop a few thoughts on it.

    Darkening is just sugar caramelization accelerated greatly by acidity of tips. Just a small pH drop in moisture - and tips are tart - accelerates the process by orders of magnitude.

    With high temperature, you lose some volatile stuff unless you have it all sealed (which itself is explosive). I think you can achieve similar extraction by alcohol groups (that’s what sugar does) by adding tips in secondary. But then you won’t have all this caramel. Caramel could come from specialty malt or sugar caramelized separately. Anyway, overdefined problems are just more refined tools for future experiments!

    Was this tips extraction simple? And filtration?
