I like to have a printed calendar on my fridge. Obviously this is going to be outdated soon but it’s accurate as of today, May 24th, 2021. Here’s a PDF version too.

Printable F1 2021 Calendar
I could not find a simple printable calendar for the F1 2021 season, so I made one. Here’s an image preview as well as a downloadable PDF. Enjoy!
Plate Chiller for Robobrew (Brewzilla)
Robobrew (Brewzilla) comes with a solid immersion chiller. If you’re happy with it, then read no further. But if you’d like to make your life a little easier and enjoy your brew day a bit more, then I highly recommend a plate chiller. I won’t get into the details here of what makes a plate […]
Video of my talk at KiCon – Your Manufacturer Is Stupid
Really enjoyed giving this and being given the opportunity to give a talk at KiCon in Chicago this year. What an honor.
Your Manufacturer Is Stupid – Presentation
Here you can find a PDF copy of the presentation I gave at KiCon 2019 helping designers understand important details that every assembler needs to know in order to make your assembly correctly.

Most everything we build is very well designed, but because we introduce so many new designs to our process every single day, I spent a […]
Earl Dreams of IPA – Post 2

Imagine taking a band-aide off your sweaty arm, putting it in a microwave until it gets nice and crispy on the edges, and then chewing on this while drinking a nice glass of water with a few too many pellets of hops dropped into it. Yeah, […]
iSpindel Project – Post 2
Whenever it comes time that you want to build a DIY product, you really must understand the bill of materials first. For the iSpindel, it just was not very straight forward. There’s nobody really explaining what everything is and how it’s all used. The documentation for this just doesn’t make it all very clear. So […]
Earl Dreams of IPA
When it comes to tasting beer, entirely too much emphasis is placed on the variety of hops used in the brew and in what volume those hops were used. About 5 years ago I had my very first Tree House Brewing Company beers. It was a Haze and I had never tasted anything like it. […]
