	<description>Welcome to 26 Unlimited: The untamed power of language. Reflections on the world we live in and how we cope with it. Here I hope to explore the essence of life and nature, human society, economics, space, time, travel, and thought.</description>

		<description><![CDATA[Eva and I have fallen off the bread wagon since moving from our cramped Toronto apartment and coming upon a regular supply of quality bakery bread. After Eva broke out our bread maker and baked a dense olive loaf, I decided to take a stab at something new: Sourdough. Sourdough had long been something of [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[As the blog&#8217;s getting pretty cluttered with brewing stuff, I figured I&#8217;d add a new page (available in the header) for brewing notes! Chipping away at Life II entry, though it&#8217;s hard to find the time these days. Cheers Zac]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve turned the cold room into a fermentation station &#8211; got about 45 litres of beer between kegs and bottles, just kicked off 23 Litres of Sumac wine, and I&#8217;m on my 9th experimental mini-batch (using various sugars, syrups, making cider, metheglin etc). Sadly we&#8217;re down to a meager glass or two of plain mead, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Some after-thoughts on the mead brewed nearly a year ago.. Opened one of the last remaining bottles of still mead last night, and polished the second last bottle of sparkling mead. I’m glad I made a very dry mead – it’s lighter on the palate and on the hangover. The mead has certainly aged gracefully. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Well, we&#8217;ve finally done it. The remaining 20 liters of mead are bottled, and it&#8217;s pretty damned tasty. Eva and I slurped down some leftovers last night, and tonight we cracked a bottle. Smooth and very similar to a full bodied white wine &#8211; a little less crisp than most whites, but with a rustic [...]]]></description>

I like to serve nice cocktails, and soda water is a key contributor, but I always run out and can’t really justify buying a case of it for some unknown reason (the hauling, the storing, the fact that it goes flat so fast…). For awhile, I bought [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Well, it would appear that I was hasty in souring my assessment! The mead is smoothing out quite nicely; the tart acidic taste must have been either the result of a second fermentation or it could have been from sediment / the lees getting mixed up with the mead during racking. Either way, it&#8217;s been [...]]]></description>

A little over a week after my last post I did a tasting and found the mead to be well on its way. The flavour was smoothing out and fermentation had stopped; hydrometer read 0.990- the density of [...]]]></description>
