Hi All,

CP, if you like jokes, Timing is everything !
Only local Craft beer for me. The 'Citrus' hopps from your area are really great.
I've learned over the years, that ARF people, miss 1/2 the FUN of 'Model Airplanes'.

I'm weeding out/purging all my above .25 projects.
Then 'whittling' down to .15... (when I burn out the .25s)
Ultimate goal for me is to show up at a field,
Fire up a TD.049,
And the ' Electric Crowd ', goes....
'Where can I get One?'


Take Care,
Have Fun,

mmmm...the last batch I brewed was all citra from start to finish. It didn't turn out as grape fruity as I hoped. I used hop pellets.
I've been growing Cascade hops on twine at the south end of my house.
It will help with tooth pain if you pack it in like chaw.
I like your plan to consolidate your operation. I need to get back on that path, especially with old planes hanging in the rafters coated in grime.
The way to get rid of them is to bring them to a skeet shooting range and charge $5 for 5 shots while they're flying with HK radio equipment.

Hi CP,

Try crushing the Citra pellets, and add during the wort cools down to fermentation temp.

This WE, my plan is to thin out my Hop garden, fire up some some engines...

'Thinning out' the heard of old projects is 'weird' for me...

Seems, the better pilot I become,
The less I crash,
Therefore,
Less building room,
For better planes,
I want to Fly...

Take care,
Have Fun,

Dave, aren't you flying the .25 scale combat any more? That should use up some planes quickly. I just bought a smaller house, so I may have to thin out the herd a bit too. Seem to have collected a lot of trainer type planes which I no longer love. Maybe a combat match or just a bonfire? Every time I smash a plane, I seem to lose a receiver, so I try not to smash them on purpose like the combat guys. I think I have to thin out some cars too, oh and maybe all the junk in my shop too.

I'm celebrating spring by ordering a dumpster for a week.. there will be some old moldy hobby crap in there for sure. But less hobby stuff than my wife thinks..

I have a couple of aircraft that would be ideal for the skeet range.. evil ideas are brewing.
