Took it for 3, 4 years or so...dropped once the blood sugar was consistently very good. Never had any such issues. But then, mine was the min dose.

Grailknight Posted June 3, 2022 Report Share Posted June 3, 2022 Taking Lasix currently for fluid build-up. Not so bad once your body adapts but the first few weeks were horrible. They don't warn you about the cramps in your legs and not to stretch as you wake up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unclevlad Posted June 4, 2022 Report Share Posted June 4, 2022 Simply awesome presentation. Gorgeous. Could see doing this with family...OLDER kids, or at least kids who completely understand knifework. Julienne isn't the safest.

unclevlad Posted June 12, 2022 Report Share Posted June 12, 2022 Why didn't you weigh the water BEFORE you heated it? And BTW, yeah, I always preheated the water, for siphon or moka pot. I played around with a siphon brewer. One issue was, once finished...the coffee was already just warm. Also note there's a fair bit of waste. Plus...I wonder if there's gonna be any metallic taste? The boil/serve chamber, the siphon tube gets used both ways. Cleanup...after a while, that siphon tube is gonna need cleaning. Not fun there. Last thought...betcha this pup's PRICEY. With all that brass? Amazon actually has several; they're around $150. Well, OK, the k-cup types aren't that much less, are they? But here, it's for awkward, slow, and (in my experience anyway) mediocre brew. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The amount is negligible, unless you leave it to boil for a considerable period. That's a bad idea anyway. OK...I'll qualify that. It may well depend on HOW you heat your water. I did find some advice along the lines you mention...they mention losing an ounce of water when boiling a cup, but I gotta ask how they boiled. If zapping in the micro, with a glass measuring cup? I never see anything like that. Or anywhere CLOSE. I use an induction burner now, with a steel gooseneck kettle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cygnia Posted June 14, 2022 Report Share Posted June 14, 2022 Now that flavor looks tasty! Meanwhile... ...has anyone here ever sampled kangaroo meat before? We tried the Agave & Rye in Columbus last week and one of their taco options has kangaroo (The Big Jumper). Had to try it. Not bad, though the majority of that particular taco is made up of a mac & cheese beignet. But kangaroo reminded me a bit like skirt steak.

That one's not on their site right now. looks like they rotate, presumably regularly. This one sounds, and looks, awesome.https://vanleeuwenicecream.com/product/raspberry-layer-cake/ The ingredients list is...oh my. Cream, milk, sugar, eggs, tapioca syrup, red raspberries. So it should definitely be GOOD STUFF. Everything they're showing looks yummy; no, that mustard abomination isn't there. They've got an Earl Grey Tea; even that's likely to be tasty, if the tea flavor's not too strong. I think I'm extremely glad there isn't one anywhere NEAR me....
