Josh K7ZIM
Lol
8:04:52 PM
KG7MZO
DOH!!!
8:06:57 PM
Josh K7ZIM
Anyone try fermenting and canning?
8:07:16 PM
KG7MZO
I have done some canning.
Both water bath and pressure. Super easy
8:08:04 PM
Josh K7ZIM
Been doing it for about 6 years. Made some bomb saurkraut about 4 yrs ago. Sooo good!
Havent done pressure yet. Camt afford the canner....yet. lol
8:08:48 PM
KG7MZO
I want to get into fermenting, especially sauerkraut
8:09:10 PM
TWP
I've made sauerkraut in the past, it was excellent, much better than the commercial variety. Canned many vegetables, but nothing in the last few years.
8:09:22 PM
Josh K7ZIM
Saurkraut is super easy. I used a 5gal bucket, cabbage and sea salt.
8:09:40 PM
N7SAX
Sauerkraut is highly beneficial
8:09:51 PM
KG7MZO
I know it's easy, just haven't done it yet
8:10:19 PM
Josh K7ZIM
I turned many people to real kraut that hated the store stuff.
8:10:54 PM
TWP
Glenda, fresh harvested cabbage is preferable to store bought, The farmers market might be a good source
8:11:01 PM
KG7MZO
I found my pressure canner at a thrift store for $3
Yes, I do know that garden fresh is the best
8:11:19 PM
Josh K7ZIM
Nice find!
8:11:20 PM
TWP
$3 - I'm jealous
8:11:40 PM
KG7MZO
Brand new, still in the box. Many years ago in Colorado
Only holds 4 quarts at a time, so not quite worth it for the time and energy.
8:14:01 PM
TWP
With respect to the topic of long term storage foods: LDS Recommendation on long term (30+ years) foods. These are staples and NOT prepared foods.
https://www.lds.org/topics/food-storage/longer-term-food-supply?lang=eng&old=true#1 The article also addresses foods which DO NOT store for long term and should be used up and replaced on a short cycle. I'll post this on the forum.
8:14:04 PM
Josh K7ZIM
I just combined all my bacon fat into 1, 1/2gal jar this weekend. Gotta try out pemican with bacon fat here soon.
Soda jelly!
8:15:10 PM
TWP
Soda Jelly? What is that?
8:15:24 PM
Josh K7ZIM
Facebook has tons of groups for canning, fermenting and food preserving.
8:15:54 PM
KG7MZO
Rob is right. Stay away from mylar
8:16:15 PM
Josh K7ZIM
You use soda to make jelly. Its like 16oz soda, 2 cups sugar and pectin. Then waterbath can. Cream soda is awesome!
8:16:40 PM
KG7MZO
Oh....cream soda jelly. Intriguing
8:16:58 PM
TWP
OH! Soda as in soda pop! I love cream soda!

8:20:19 PM
tpprepper
Got the canner out for a video next couple of weeks, that will be fun
Hows the kiddo Glenda?
8:22:13 PM
TWP
Vic, a suggestion, if you don't host your video's locally, please avoid using Facebook, Lots of reports of their video not being playable. Non-standard format.
8:22:40 PM
tpprepper
I just did one to FB and I hate the way they screw em up
Working on it now for the You tube channel and website
8:23:23 PM
TWP
I cannot play them with Firefox, but perhaps on other browsers... Haven't tried any others.
8:23:28 PM
tpprepper
I host on Youtube
8:23:33 PM
TWP
Youtube plays
8:23:56 PM
tpprepper
So you can see the YT channel and then I embed them on my site
8:24:22 PM
Josh K7ZIM
My nemesis, pickles! Lol
8:24:44 PM
Ken K7KBJ
I really want to start pickling hard boiled eggs.
8:24:57 PM
tpprepper
We canned jalepenos last year we had so many
8:25:17 PM
TWP
Vic, Your welcome message does play. Let me try the YT channel.
8:25:56 PM
TWP left the channel (timeout)
8:27:15 PM
KG7MZO
The site looks great Vic
8:27:15 PM
tpprepper
Glenda, Hows the kiddo doing?

8:27:27 PM

8:28:07 PM
tpprepper
OH that one, you had me for a moment, or I had myself
8:28:15 PM
KG7MZO
She's doing great. About another month and she should be able to get out of both braces. She's been able to remove the neck brace for a little bit. Finally got her hair cut last week
8:28:20 PM
TWP
Vic, YT Channel works fine. Tried several of your videos, no problem
8:28:23 PM
tpprepper
The Disaster Guy, just google him
8:28:32 PM
KG7MZO
She's come a very long ways since the last time you saw her
8:28:33 PM
tpprepper
great
Glad to hear
You gonna get that mast Rob?
8:29:05 PM
KG7MZO
She's regained lots of movement in her neck and some strength in her arm
Still has some numbness in her sholder though
8:29:19 PM
tpprepper
Braces still?
8:29:33 PM
KG7MZO
Yup, both of them until mid-June
8:30:03 PM
tpprepper
Well the light at the end of the tunnel is NOT the train!
8:30:28 PM
KG7MZO
That's a good thing! She can't wait to be out of these braces
8:30:35 PM
Ken K7KBJ
It's the little itty bitty light in my easy bake oven !
8:30:53 PM
tpprepper
TMI Ken
Gonna miss my sidekick at Hobart!!!
8:31:27 PM
Rob K9RVM
TWP - I have the masts, but I'm looking at a small compatible tripod for it.
8:31:54 PM
TWP
Rob, that was Vic,not me
8:32:33 PM
tpprepper
yea, what he said
8:32:35 PM
Ken K7KBJ
I'll really miss being there, Vic. It's a most awesome time!
8:32:47 PM
Rob K9RVM
sorry, flipping back and forth. Yes, I have the SOTA mast and kit, and I picked up another MFJ mast for the RV and field with the hitch flag pole holder
Everything is now here.
8:33:12 PM
tpprepper
great, just got the autotuner for the 817, came today
Will use that for fielday
8:33:49 PM
Rob K9RVM
I'm hoping to get all of this gear put together this weekend depending on my work schedule. And I picked up the 817 tuner as well. David got the bag here last week with the batteries.
8:34:03 PM
tpprepper
Great!
8:34:19 PM
Rob K9RVM
I may pick up a 100W solar panel as well for both the field and to augment the RV.
8:34:30 PM
tpprepper
I am going to take it to Elk camp in CO this year and see if I can "Phone HOme"
8:34:56 PM
Rob K9RVM
I'm doing the research to find a panel that is cost effective, portable and is reliable.
8:35:10 PM
tpprepper
I am looking at the 50 watters
So it matches the battery controller
8:36:00 PM
Ken K7KBJ
I'm hungry
Good night all
