Section 501, "Expatriation of Terrorists": This provision, the drafters say, would establish that an American citizen could be expatriated "if, with the intent to relinquish his nationality, he becomes a member of, or provides material support to, a group that the United Stated has designated as a 'terrorist organization'." But whereas a citizen formerly had to state his intent to relinquish his citizenship, the new law affirms that his intent can be "inferred from conduct." Thus, engaging in the lawful activities of a group designated as a "terrorist organization" by the Attorney General could be presumptive grounds for expatriation.
MOYERS: Do you see any protection in here against potential abuse?
LEWIS: I don't think there's very much -- there's a lot more authority and power for government. There's less oversight and information about what government is doing. That's the headline and that's the theme. And the safeguards seem to be pretty minimal to me.
MOYERS: I just go through here, you know? "Will give the Attorney General the unchecked power to deport any foreigner?"
LEWIS: Right.

Sounds interesting, but I don't speak German. Can anyone tell me how/why he does it in a washing machine? It seems kinda random to me.

Nyuk, Nyuk.
But seriously... Home brewers tend to be rather ingenious at adapting common objects to suit their needs. First time I've seen this though. Way to go, Padre!
I had a history professor who loved giving quizzes with off-the-wall "bonus questions" at the end.
The quizzes were given orally.
Question #9: "What is a lager" (most people, myself included, thought he meant "logger" and were confused)
Question #10: "What is a beer brewed in the bottom of the barrel?
It was pretty clear to even non-beer-drinkers like myself (I'm probably more ignorant of beer terminology than most nuns) what was meant by the two questions at this point, and those of us with minimal reasoning skills got the two questions right. It was funny to listen to the whiners that said the questions were unfair.

Another story without comments. Don't the editors look at the front page and realize something is wrong?
holy beer!
Simply amazing... now you can make BOTH types of suds in a maytag.
Exactly what you want to do, get the fucking priest drunk so that he can molest some more kids. Holy Moses.
It took over 100 years, but men can now be liberated from the tyranny of daily washing.
They make bread machines, food processors, even pasta machines. Why not a beer machine?

The only problem is that his beer tastes like laundry detergent.
I now look at my washer with new interest.
Not like that command line PGP thing...
Jesus could turn water into wine.
It makes a lot of sense, that's how a lot of commercial beer is made: in vats with heating coils and stirrers. The article doesn't say, but I am sure his beer is fermented in a conventional way, the washing machine is just to prepare the wort. And the washing machine is set up for exactly this, better than most homebrewers' stovetop setups. I wonder what his wife thinks about having to do laundry in a pail, but with so much homebrew around, once you get a little tipsy, such concerns are just not as pressing!
Can *you* prove that *you* don't have weapons of mass destruction?

Get those priests into brewing their own beer and maybe it'll get their minds off the alter boys!
I am too cool for words!
That does seem a bit strange, you would think there would be a a better place to make beer.
At least the cleanup is easy.

I wonder how many "First posts" there will be when this hidden-comments bug gets fixed?
Every time I consider subscribing to Slashdot, a new bug/dupe/bias rears its ugly head and I reconsider. Here we go again.
Anybody who brews beer at home knows that keeping the equipment sterile is essential to producing a quality beer.
Using a washing machine is a novel solution.
Hum, I dont think that would go over good with my wife. Also I dont like the soap after taste.
This is the second article from news sites I read with instructions on how and why to brew your own alcohol today. Is today an alcohol-related holiday I don't know about?

His clothes will stay dirty until he finishes another project, converting his still into a washing machine.
This is the first post in the story.
so, where are all the comments?
pr0st? God, I hope so. I've never won anything in my life. Maybe I really *am* somebody!
For anyone who hasn't tried it, I heartily recommend attempting at least one home-brew batch (if you're a beer fan, of course). For less money than a case of commercial beer, you'll end up with something that tastes significantly better, and it's less work than you would imagine!
;-)
If you buy a kit (not Mr. Beer, but a real kit), do a little research, and commit about an hour of your time and two weeks of patience, you'll be rewarded with some of the best beer you've ever had, plus the pride of having made it yourself. Try it, you'll like it!

No chance to wash our clothes, so they'll get dirty.
So, everybody hanging around drunk all the time, in dirty clothes.
Naahh, then it must be a bad thing to use a washing machine as beer brewing machine...

But seriously, surely it has to be hard to sterilise the washing machine between brews? Sure, you could run a couple of empty washing loads through it or something, but I don't imagine that would be enough to clean all those little drainage holes of mash, etc. Sounds like a good way to brew up beer that is going to give you a *serious* hangover. Mind you, if that problem could be solved, I'd be first in line to buy an automated home brew kit!

Also, I noticed the guy doing the washing machine brewing has an amateur radio webpage. Apparently in Germany it is called "amateurfunk".

The Revolution Will Not Be Televised
The priest brews in accordance with the Reinheitsgebot, the German beer purity law that dictates only water, malt, hops (and now yeast) shall be used in making beer.
Another example of legislation failing to keep up with technology. I'm sure that whoever wrote the Reinheitsgebot would have prohibited using computer-driven washing machines if only they'd anticipated their existence.

Not only does this prove that "Germans don't do xyz, they do BEER," it is also a sign that American religion needs some serious reform. :)
I speak from experience.
Many people, including myself have brewed beer. I couldn't get it right. Friends have had great batches, but mine always tasted like piss or worse. You really don't need to stir the yeast very much, and certainly not at "hot water" temeratures. Still and clean and quiet is the prope way to brew.
Kids, don't try this at home. The washing machine is the LAST place you want to brew beer.
Get a 5 gal. bucket (sterilized) with a air tihts lid, and an "air-lock" water stopper from your chemestry set in the attic. Boil a gallon of water and stir in 32 oz of malt. Continue stirring and boiling for 15 minutes to release the sugar in the malt. Cool and pour into 5 gal bucket that has ~4 gal of tap water waiting. Gently add the yeast when mixture is luke warm - not hot. stir once with sterile utensile and fasten lid. Leave it alone for 5 days and siphon into sterilized bottles. Cap them at once. Gently always gently, set them aside for a week and good luck.
Or, just got to the packie and drop $50 for a coupla cases of your fav micro-brew.

Perhaps a dumb question, but I don't speak/read German: while this washing machine is in use brewing his beer, where does he do his laundry? More than 1 machine perhaps?
Anyway, while interesting, I find his adherence to the brewing code rather boring. Personally, I like some German beers, but I also like Belgian-style fruit beers (framboise, kriek).

And the brethren went away edified.
"The priest brews in accordance with the Reinheitsgebot, the German beer purity law that dictates only water, malt, hops (and now yeast) shall be used in making beer." Is that the law in most places? I used to work in a brewery and those were the ingredients we usually used, but I never knew it was for legal reasons.
That makes a fine joke: What do you get when you combine a church, a brewery, and a laundromat?

I saw a TV programme a few years ago about people brewing hooch in scotland using toploading washing machines.
This is an illegal act punishable by harsh sentences. If they wanted, the BATF could burn this guy and his family, his church and all of his followers (this has been proven) to death and laugh about it afterwards. Of course you are probably are saying that there's no law, blah blah blah... well the BATF just make up the "law" as they go since they are never held accountable.
But hey, I'm full of shit and the federal police would never kill 80 men women and children in one swoop or kill a guy's wife while holding an infant on the front porch. That kind of thing only happens in Iraq, Iran, and North Korea (aka, "The Axis of Evil").

If These Sheets Could Talk!
What happens when you ask 12 random girls about the wildest move a guy pulled during sex? They talk...and we share their secrets with you.
Maxim, February 2003
By Laura Gilbert
Every girl has a sex romp that stands out in her mind as the most memorable ever--a time when a guy tried a new move she'd never experienced before and totally blew her away...or made her cringe. To keep you in the right category, I tracked down a bunch of girls and ambushed them with questions about the crazy maneuvers that still fuel their fantasies. Read on to find out which surprise twists left them gasping for more and which ones sent them bolting for the door. Then get ready to star in your girl's best story.
Sneaking in the Back Door
'I didn't think I'd want anything back there...but I ended up liking it.'
"I had just started dating this guy and we were totally going at it, having a great time, when he pressed a finger up against my back door. At first I was like, 'Eeek!' and tried to squirm away, but then he whispered in my ear, 'I'll stop if you want,' in this really husky, hot way. Once I realized he wasn't going to try to dive all the way in, I relaxed, and I found the extra pressure so hot. In fact, it made my orgasm 100 percent more intense."--Andrea, 26
Dancing on the Ceiling
'I couldn't take my eyes off the mirror. I loved watching while we were doing it.'
"I was having an affair with this guy, and one night after a party, we crashed at a friend's house with a whole bunch of other people. Everyone was passed out when he snuck over to the couch where I was sleeping and whispered, 'I'm going into the bathroom--follow me in five minutes.' I went in, and he lifted me up so I was lying back on the sink counter. He held my legs in the air while we went at it from the front. I swear to God, my feet were actually on the ceiling. There were a million reasons it was so hot...I was doing it upside down, I couldn't make any noise, and there was a mirror behind me so I could watch the whole thing. I can't even go to the bathroom there now without stopping to enjoy the memory."--Alex, 28
Double Your Pleasure
'Feeling my hands and his hands touching me all at once was incredible.'
"One night I thought it would be our regular before-bed sex, but David unexpectedly asked me to tickle my pink. I'm usually uncomfortable doing that in front of him, but he said it would be a big turn-on. Little did I know he meant a turn-on for me. Right as I started to come, he licked a couple of fingers and started rubbing the base of my love button. All of a sudden I felt this second huge wave of orgasm. It was fantastic. We haven't been able to repeat it very often, but when we do...wow!"--Claire, 25
Licked Off
'Talk about acting like a dog--licking a girl's face is never a turn-on.'
"I woke up one morning to feel light, tickling tongue flicks all over my lower back. It was incredibly erotic, so I leaned into it and started moaning. The guy, whom I'd taken home the night before, kept at it, but instead of heading south, he worked his way up around the side of my neck until he came to my face. Then he changed to long, flat, broad strokes...all over my face. My eyes! My nose! Gross! Not to mention that he had that morning-breath, sticky thing going on, so I felt like there was a trail of slime all over me. I got up, hurried him along, and then scrubbed my face for about 15 minutes in the shower. Yuck."--Noelle, 23
Bedside Backfire
'Any surprise attack involving the back door is a deal-breaker.'
"I have trouble staying lubricated during sex, so I was happy when the guy I was seeing took the initiative to buy some K-Y and keep it by the bed. One morning we were spooning in bed when he reached over and squeezed out a handful of lube. I started arching into him and getting excited about what was coming next--until what came next went in my exit door. I yelled and jerked away so hard I actually fell off the bed. I'm not opposed to the idea of a booty bang, but I need a little notice. That is definitely not a good candidate for a surprise."--Erin, 30
Slippery When Wet
'Getting crazy with the sex venue works...unless it sends you to the ER.'
"My boyfriend decided he wanted to have sex in the shower. I was excited about the change in venue, since we're usually so stuck in our routine. The soap made everything really slick, which definitely felt sexy, but all of a sudden he tried out some crazy lift-me-up move straight out of the Ice Capades. Next thing I know, he's slipping, we tumble, and we both wind up with bruised backs. Sex in the shower is fine, but save the advanced moves for when you're dry-docked."--Robin, 27
Rip Tide
'Whenever I wear one of his old tees, I get a zing thinking of him ripping it off me.'
"I had been nagging my boyfriend to throw away this worn-out college T-shirt he slept in every night, so he suggested I wear it to bed to see how comfortable it was. The next morning we started fooling around and I shed my panties, but when I went to pull off the T-shirt, he stopped me. Then, right as we started to go at it really hot and sweaty, he grasped the thin material between my breasts and tore the T-shirt in two. The ripping sound, and being suddenly exposed, was erotic enough, but the realization that he was getting rid of the shirt in the hottest way possible nearly made me levitate. What can I say? He doesn't have many old T-shirts left anymore."--Wendy, 26
Press and Play
'That little unexpected push made for the best oral sex I've ever gotten.'
"My ex was going down on me when he stopped and pressed the heel of his palm against my clit. It was so crazy! After all the focused tongue attention, it felt really sexy to have this different, wider pushing sensation. When he went back to what he was doing, I was even more sensitive than before, and pow, did I come! Even now, whenever I'm getting head, I say to myself, 'Gosh, why can't another guy master that?'"--Bethany, 24
Light My Fire
'This toy gave a whole new meaning to the term afterglow.'
"My college study-buddy and I had been flirting for weeks, so I knew what was going to happen when we decided to go on a spur-of-the-moment camping trip. But once we hit the sleeping bag, the tent was so dark, I couldn't even find the buttons on his Levi's. Like a good Boy Scout, though, he was prepared: He pulled out one of those little glow sticks that people use at raves. When he lit it up, it created this cool, otherworldly sex cocoon. After a few minutes of fun, he actually put the stick between our stomachs, so that as our bodies moved together and apart, it created this wild strobe effect in the exact rhythm of the sex. I can only imagine what it looked like from outside the tent!"--Monica, 23
Caught on Tape
'We call it the Duct Tape Fiasco. After all, I had welts on my wrists for two days.'
"I'd always loved when my boyfriend tied my wrists with a silk scarf, but I wanted to try something a little more bondagey-feeling. He did some reading and found that duct tape was a pretty secure way to go. He unrolled the tape and lashed me to the bedposts, and we did our thing. It was great...until it came time to pull off the duct tape. It hurt like crazy, and the next day you could see these huge purple welts across my pale skin. Those were fun to try to explain at work! We're back to the scarf now."--Karen, 22
Speak Easy
'I'll never forget the way this guy talked dirty to me. It was raunchy but hot.'
"I'd started seeing this guy from work and we didn't want anyone in the office to find out about us, so we kept it on the down-low and really took our time getting to...know each other. When we finally did it, I was on top of him and he pulled me close and whispered, 'You feel so good riding my cock.' I'd never heard anything so sexual--especially from this guy, my sweet little ophthalmologist's assistant! It was a huge turn-on! He's still completely mild-mannered at work, so I always get a little shiver down my spine when I think about him saying such dirty things."--Lisa, 24
Let the Good Times Dole
'All I'll say is Viagra isn't just for guys!'
"A few Saturdays ago while we were watching TV, my boyfriend gave me this sneaky smile and handed me a pill. I figured it was Ecstasy--we'll pop one every now and then to make sex more intense. I trust him, so I shrugged and swallowed it, and an hour later I was on fire. Turns out he'd gotten a Viagra from one of his coworkers and split it with me instead of taking it all. He was harder than he's ever been, and we both had amazing orgasms. I kept going on my own for a few minutes after, and before I knew it, he was ready for another round. He was so right not to tell me what it was. I'd have been like, 'Who are you--Bob Dole?' and laughed at him. But...damn!"--Elizabeth, 25

Why is this on /.?

That's a new twist. I wonder if it comes carbonated out of the discharge hose. I've been homebrewing since 1995. How many slashdotters brew their own?

Just the link alone to realbeer.com alone was worth it's weight in, um, beer. GLEE!

my last sig was too controversial... now, a new and improved useless sig!
I can see the commercial now:
Its beer.
No its holy blessed beer!
Its clean too.
Straight from the washing machine to the priest for his blessing and on to you the consumer...
Its clean, its washed and holy too.
Washing machine beer made by a priest.
You can't beat that with a stick.
ACK
Considering the other popular "hobbies" among priests, it's probably a good thing he has something to do, rather than somebody's son to do.
But I won't be impressed under he can brew Holy Water and the sacramental wine. Throw in the consecrated host, and you've got Jesus in the Whirlpool. (If you believe in Transubstantiation, that is.)

Why is something like this on slashdot? Sigh, I guess I'll never understand the compulsive need to drink..
You've got to respect a preist who not only brews his own beer, but does so with an automated (not to mention programmable) washing machine. Not to mention he knows assembler, Amen!

I may be old-fashioned, but I thought priests weren't supposed to drink???

Let me begin by saying FP!
That said, did they find any little boys in his laundry as well ?
maybe even first.
and then there's this guy...
history repeats itself. :)
what beer from my washing machine would tase like..
For those of you who read German-English machine translations better than I do,
I've pasted one below. Maybe it's just that I'm too lazy to read
closely... but can anyone figure out how the heck this guy cranks enough heat
out of the machine to achieve a rolling boil?
Beer brow with PC and washing machine - we came a report through Jean Pütz and the "Hobbythek" on the idea to brew even once beer. The first attempt took place as INDUSTRIAL TRADE UNION in a vacations warehouse: the groups leaders got given a bottle apiece of "Hankenberger-Lager-Bier of the participants to the end of the warehouse". Did after the Verkostung the question stand: "and when we brew the next time?"
In the following 3 years, there was a row of brow trial with different persons circle. Again and again the problem stood to find a suitable brow container and a suitable Heizquelle.
Three years ago, we had the idea, an old washing machine (Toplader) for brewing umzubauen. Following reasons spoke for that:
Large Edelstahlgefäß with incorporated Heizquelle motor to the stirring and pump to the Umfüllen incorporated are easy and wassersparende cleaning possibility accidentally saw I some days later a suitable washing machine in a colleague stand. It was defective (like itself later laid out, must only the condenser renewed become), and I was able to take it directly with home. So that the geschrotene malt did not fix itself on the Heizstäben and the pump did not clog, a type of giant tea bag was sewed out of material diaper. So the drum in the machine was able to remain and used become the motor stirring.
In a sample conduit - the machine naturally before was cleaned and the flow tube replaced become - was tested, theoretically reasoned functioned should be washed out whether that principle, for the contents materials yes out of the malt into the brow water. When this attempt was arrive, I went at the reconstruction of the machine.
Certainly it would be also possible to serve motor and heating per hand, but I searched for an automatic solution: the brow process should be driven over time sections to be selected freely and temperatures, and also the drum rotations should be freely eligible.
Therefore I removed the electromechanical control and replaced it through a row of relay, that individually can be addressed and drive water and flow, heating as well as motor to the left and/or to the right. The temperature measurement takes place via an electronic building block, that changes the temperature into digital impulses, that delivers water level measurement over a building block, that according to water pressure (=Füllstandshöhe) a corresponding tension, that is changed into digital signals.
The parallel interface of the PC gives the relatively simple possibility to address single tax directions and data directions. Through a C program, the beer brow washing machine is driven now.
A brow process looks now so:
The machine is connected to the water direction, that flow tubes hung out of security reason into the Spülbecken. The computer is connected and the program started. If the temperature is reached to the Einmaischen, the computer gives a signal and holds the machine on. Now the well locked bag with the malt on abundance and the cover is closed. The machine heats now up to the different Rastzeiten, the drum revolves in the intervals determined before. If the purification phase is terminated, bag and drum can be removed. For a better Ergiebigkeit, it is however meaningful let run the Sud in an external Läutergefäß once again through the Maische.
The Sud is heated now on 100 degrees and the hops in a little bag admitted. After an hour, the Sud is finished and can become into the Gärgefäß umgefüllt. If he cooled off himself on 20 degrees, the beer yeast in addition gift prepared before becomes.
The beer later is drawn-off some days of the yeast and in bottles umgefüllt where now the remainder fermentation worries for the necessary carbon dioxide pressure. Some weeks the beer is later finished.

This is a very interesting idea, albiet a bit controversial. Seriously, what would be the first thing to come to mind when you hear of a priest brewing beer in a washing machine at home?
Maybe it's just me, but I don't think much good publicity will come from this...

Hmm, it seems that no one bothered to comment. Perhaps I will.
Considering that Priests/Clergy have been making alcohol for centuries, this doesn't seem all that odd. Replace the traditional tun [vat/cask] with a washing machine.
Pretty straightforward, really
Blocklevel: Practical Information Architecture
I brew my own beer too, and was thinking for a while what the advantage to using, of all things, a washing machine would be. I think it boils down to the fact that this is an easy way to brew beer without making a MESS. I use all sorts of pots and hoses and what not, and my wife is usually displeased at the situation of the kitchen floor when I'm done.
:-)
That said, I don't see what's so "nerdy" about this process other than the automated laptop program.
But imagine a Beowulf cluster of these... Mmmm, Oktoberfest!!!!
(As a side note, I don't think a washing machine is a great idea since it's probably VERY hard to completely sterilize before brewing, and there's no practical way to keep wild yeasts out of the tub during the fermentation process.)
This brings new meaning to the phrase home brew!! I am proud to be a member of the Beer Liberation Front. The best beer in the world that is Micro brewed So, now if only we could write a linux kernel to make a better less filling beer.

Um...what do they use for baptisms in Germany? Heineken? What the hell else is the priest brewing alcohol in his washer for? I mean, if he had a wine distillery or something in the machine, that'd make sense.
It's not just for the unwashed masses any more, it's for priests who are going to be washing their laundry by hand now!

You are so teh lose, it's almost sad.
I wouldn't mind dropping a bone in that chasm.
1. Have a topic not show replies for a few hours. Topic gets 500+ replies. 2. ??? 3. Profit!
In himmel das ist keine beir
Ja ja wir trinken hier
Und wann wer sind nicht hier
Unsere freundinen trinken alles bier

In heaven there is no beer
That's why we drink it here
And when we are gone from here
All our friends will be drinking all the beer
the no
man, it must suck to suck so bad.

Offtopic? It's funny.

If you can't ignore an insult, top it;
if you can't top it, laugh it off;
and if you can't laugh it off, it's probably deserved.

a lot of moderators who don't care enough to sift through the trolls to look for posts to mod up ;)
I thought I was being all clever and shit and being the first to post that. I realize now that Slashdot was just backed up, and now, well, now I repeated it for the upteenth time...

A list of beer for the dish washer:
http://www.tobp.com/humor/systems.shtml
I am a homebrewer, and I don't really understand what part of brewing a washing machine can come into play. The english article mentions temperature control, but I can't imagine how a washing machine could do the type of temperature control needed for making beer. During the mash (early stage) you need to keep a high temperature (around 150F) for at least 4 or 5 hours. But the water can't change. Its part of what will become beer!
During fermentation of lagers (which he is probably brewing if he is German, and if he is brewing the beers linked on his page) you need to keep a constant LOW temperature (around 40F?) for weeks. Again, I don't understand how a washing machine could help accomplish this...(unless he has a 2nd container inside the wash tub, and circulates consistently cold water around it?)
The great thing about brewing beer is you don't really need any mechanical machines. Its more about temperature control and keeping everything sanitary.
...would be the shiznit. I'm working on it right now...had the Win2K box fired up to check some digital photos I took of the early stages, checked /., and found this article. I'm working on setting up an Apple II+ as a programmable temperature controller/logger for the refrigerator I use for fermenting and lagering. At this point, I have a Dallas DS18B20 temperature sensor tied to the computer's joystick port through a little bit of glue logic (a 74F00 and 74F125). I've written the routines to read/write bits on the 1-Wire bus and reset the bus; the most I've gotten so far is for the reset routine to tell me if any 1-Wire devices are on the bus. Routines to read/write bytes will probably be the only other assembly-language bits I need; the rest ought to be programmable from BASIC. I'll also have a DS2417 real-time clock on the bus, and a relay (switched through a transistor) on an annunciator output to switch the compressor on and off.

& you can then set the machine to do cold, warm or hot washes.
But many machines, such as quite a few European frontloaders, also have their own instantaneous line heating elements in them (the opposite of a draught beer cooler). These are often 3 phase & consist OF 3 rods in a tube in which the water runs past. So if you only a cold water tap in the laundry you can still do a warm or hot water wash. Some also have heating elements for the tub, so if you're soaking stuff overnight in a outhouse laundry in rural Bavaria, you washing won't end up frozen.
FYI, Germany isnt a catholic country.

He is a priest, therefore the catholic church would not let him get married.
In German Priest= (Catholic) Priest
Pfarrer= (Protestant) Minister
Here's my meta-mod du jour:
+1 FUNNY-ASS SHIT BABY!
You can also brew beer in a bending unit, thats called benderbrau... ;)
The way to corrupt a youth is to teach him to hold in higher value them who think alike than those who think differently
The machine is connected to the water direction, that flow tubes hung out of security reason into the Spülbecken. The computer is connected and the program started. If the temperature is reached to the Einmaischen, the computer gives a signal and holds the machine on.
I think he's using the computer to bypass the washing machine's temperature gauge so that the washing machine will continue heating the water until the computer tell it to stop at 100 degrees.
Don't forget that in Germany they use Celsius (crazy metric system). So you'll want to heat your water to 212.
The stuff he's making in the washing machine is a rough malt liquor more akin to wine than what most people think when they think beer (his stuff ferments in the bottle and contains fairly high amounts of sediment). Probably fine if you like that sort of thing, but anyone expecting it to resemble a normal lager or ale will be disappointed.
Slow down cowboy, you got too drunk and replied to an online discussion.
That is a un-inforced 'no-no'
Have a nice day now.
A slashdotting - you get the stick first and then the carrot !
Relying on slashdot to get washing machine mod ideas? Ack no! All you'll get are neon light inserts, acrylic panels, and maybe a Matrix Orbital display w/ backlit keypad to replace the dials on the top.
How would theming your washing machine help brew beer?

No it isn't, but it is an issue when you're distilling, not brewing beer. (Other replies already explain the methanol issue.)
Fermentation is a natural process; distillation just speeds that process up.
Fermentation is the conversion of sugar to alcohol.
Distilation is the processes of concencentrating the alcohol. (Or more generally the process of separating volitile fractions based on differences in boiling point.)
Shop as usual. And avoid panic buying.
Gives new meaning to calling it "suds"
First, IANARC (Roman Catholic) and I'm not sure this priest is a Roman Catholic. (My German is practically non-existent)
Anyway, Catholics are imbibers. They are typically not contaminated by American Calvinistic teotalitarianism. (This is equally true for Lutherans)
The key is moderation, which can be a huge problem for many people, priests or not.
Yes, it's a blog. Sorry if that offends you.
now literally.
Manipulate the moderator system! Mod someone as "overrated" today.
do the work of the devil. Good thing he is keeping himself busy. You know what happens when preists get bored. (Well some preists) Good for him!
There's the added bonus of getting to drink non-pasteurised beer.
Pasteurisation really does make a world of difference, and not in a good way.
Over-intoxication
Could this be your chance to shine like the fucking asshat you are you worthless dick-goblin? Go back to San Francisco and stop wasting my time. Your mother runs embedded Linux in her uterus and look at the shit that has produced. You are the most stunning example of why Linux should never, ever be placed on a critical system. Microsoft loves having you to trot out at industry conferences you fuck.
I hate liberals. If you are a liberal, do not reply.
What kind of man are you???
...should complete all your brewing work in little time. I have a friend that works for a cattle rancher and they visit all the beer breweries early in the morning to get free grain after the brewers are done with it. Apparently, the brewers soak the grain in hot water to remove the starch and this is what they use to supplement/make their brand of fresh beer. Free grain means a nice free/hot breakfast (add sugar and cream) as well as a free meal for your cattle...and boy, they collect thousands of pounds of grain! You wouldn't imagine how much beer people demand to warrant such a high volume of grain!
You are supposed to exploit your resources to the fullest! Pick any laundromat durring the hours of 11:00pm and 3:00am, bring 5 lbs of slugs (fake quarters), and brew to your heart's content!
Can you imagine...A BEOwulf cluster of brew...
But I'm sure you already Gnu that.
I brew some pretty damn good beer in my toilet. I found that brewing it in the tank (not the bowl) and then flushing it, with a pump in the bowl that gathers about 60% of the finished beer, creates a very aromatic beer and a great flavor. Oh yeah, and I cut some raisins in half and toss them in to increase the alcohol content.
you'd never see anything as useful or as creative coming out of South Dakota or Guadalajara

Everything I've ever learned the hard way was based on a statistically invalid sample.
A cow is a completely automated milk-manufacturing machine. It is encased
in untanned leather and mounted on four vertical, movable supports, one at
each corner. The front end of the machine, or input, contains the cutting
and grinding mechanism, utilizing a unique feedback device. Here also are
the headlights, air inlet and exhaust, a bumper and a foghorn.
At the rear, the machine carries the milk-dispensing equipment as
well as a built-in flyswatter and insect repeller. The central portion
houses a hydro- chemical-conversion unit. Briefly, this consists of four
fermentation and storage tanks connected in series by an intricate network
of flexible plumbing. This assembly also contains the central heating plant
complete with automatic temperature controls, pumping station and main
ventilating system. The waste disposal apparatus is located to the rear of
this central section.
Cows are available fully-assembled in an assortment of sizes and
colors. Production output ranges from 2 to 20 tons of milk per year. In
brief, the main external visible features of the cow are: two lookers, two
hookers, four stander-uppers, four hanger-downers, and a swishy-wishy.
