Vice President of Ney York state Dairy Goat Breeders Association
Certified milk tester for NYS
Show chairman for NYSDGBA
Registered operating room nurse for Syracuse Ortho Specialists SOS
Judged the youth 4-H fitting and showmanship class @ NYS Fair
Won her first goat at 8 by writing a 300 word essay on how she would care for it.
“I remember being in the car and getting butterflies when I saw the fairgrounds exit.” First started to really talk to Tom in their early 20s, they had started to date long distance while she was in nursing school in AZ. When Tom had his accident they began to speak more and more. She came up to help take care of him after one of his surgeries to rebuild his ears. She stayed at his families house for a week after the surgery to take care of him. That was a defining moment in their relationship. After she graduated she moved to Syracuse. Her and Tom bought his parents farm, the same house she had stayed to take care of him. They still live there to this day.
“All the goats have their own personalities, some I hate and some I love. I can just look at them and tell if something is wrong.”
“Favorite thing at the fair is walking around, people watching, there is always something new to see.”
“The worst part of the fair is leaving, and saying good-buy to the whole goat barn family until next year.
Tom

He does all of our hay yearly, cut, bail, stacking
He does a lot of the milking and chores in the am
Fixing all the things that break, builds things
Volunteer firefighter – burned over 28% over body, 22 surgeries
First remembers Shannon walking in the goat barn when he was 11 or 12.
Hates goats
“The best part of the fair is going home.”
“The best part really is that it’s like a family reunion with our goat family, some of us come from Texas, Arkansas, South Carolina. We all grew up together. We were in each other’s weddings. This is a home for all of us.”

Was the first in the family to get a Lamancha goat, it’s name is Eve and it’s five years old.
The fair is his vacation of choice
Girlfriend breeds Huskies and Great Pyrenees
Plans to go work in North Carolina fabricating and welding oil platforms

Favorite part about being at the goat barn is pranking people
Pranks include:
Gluing money to the ground, putting someone in a large stuffed prize and scaring people, putting someone in a large box or can and, with a cell phone, telling them which way to walk to scare people, using a fake spider or a snake on a piece of fishing string to pull or drop in front of people.

Won her first goat at 8 by writing a 300 word essay on how she would care for it.
“I remember being in the car and getting butterflies when I saw the fairgrounds exit.” First started to really talk to Tom in their early 20s, they had started to date long distance while she was in nursing school in AZ. When Tom had his accident they began to speak more and more. She came up to help take care of him after one of his surgeries to rebuild his ears. She stayed at his families house for a week after the surgery to take care of him. That was a defining moment in their relationship. After she graduated she moved to Syracuse. Her and Tom bought his parents farm, the same house she had stayed to take care of him. They still live there to this day.

In making yogurt with pasteurized milk, first heat the milk to 180. You can whisk it occasionally to prevent the skin from forming.

This is my Great Grandmother Creamer's Jam Cake recipe. Laura Magdalene Taylor Creamer's family settled near the little town of Hebron, in Comanche county, Texas coming from Kentucky after the civil war.
This cake is full of great old fashioned flavor. It was hugely popular for this past Christmas. I used homemade plum jam in the cake and also brushed each layer with additional jam before adding the Swiss meringue filling. Grandma Creamer didn't write down the instructions for this cake except for the filling. I looked at other Jam cake recipes to piece together how to make this.
Kentucky Jam cakes often are loaded with spices as well, but grandma's doesn't have any in hers. Other recipes for this cake typically soak the raisins in bourbon overnight before incorporating them into the cake. I didn't have any bourbon so I plumped the raisins in a bit of boiling water for 30 minutes and sprinkled them with a few drops of vanilla after draining them thoroughly. I forgot to put the raisins in the cake itself, and think I will continue to make it that way. They were nice in the meringue though. This cake is traditionally for Christmas time.
Preheat oven to 350°
In a stand mixer cream butter and sugar well, then add 1 egg yolk at a time and continue beating till fluffy
2 cups of sugar
1/2 cup butter
3 egg yolks
Stir in the jam, alternating with the milk/soda mixture and the flour.
1 glass of Jam (Most Kentucky Jam cake recipes call for black berry jam and the measurement is typically 1 cup, it seems to me I remember grandpa talking about plum jam for his mother's cake)
1 teaspoon of soda dissolved in:
1 cup buttermilk
3 1/2 cups sifted unbleached flour
Then fold in:
3 stiffly beaten egg whites
Fold in 1 cup of raisins
1 cup of raisins, optional.
Grease and flour three 8 inch cake pans. Into a bowl, sift flour. Cream butter and sugar in stand mixer, beat until fluffy. Add egg yolks one at a time, beating well after each addition till fluffy; blend in jam. Alternately add sifted dry ingredients and buttermilk to the creamed mixture, ending with dry ingredients. Whip the egg whites to stiff peaks and gently fold into the batter. Fold in the raisins. Divide evenly into three 8 inch cake pans, bake for 30-35 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean.
For the filling:
Cook 2 cups of sugar and 1 cup of water until hard ball stage is reached. Whip 3 egg whites (use pasteurized eggs to prevent foodborn illness) to stiff peaks in a stand mixer, in a thin stream, pour the hot syrup slowly and cautiously into the egg whites as it continues to whip. When all is incorporated continue beating until room temperature is achieved. about 20 minutes. Stir in 2/3 cup of raisins and 1 cup of chopped pecans. Spread the meringue between the layers of cake and on top of the cake, when cake is completely cooled

Immediately after milking, processing of the raw milk by pasteurizing starts. It is a very gentle process, requiring the right amount of sustained fire. If the fire is too strong , milk at the bottom of the cauldron gets burnt. As it gently simmers, a layer of bubble foam forms on top which requires this repeated movement of scooping in and out by the ladle as this girl is doing. Unless the milk will overflow. To see the whole process in sequence go to my Facebook here. www.facebook.com/sonofsukhamt/media_set?set=a.10101770178...

What could be the use of coconut husk?
I would like to see this on a german road . . .
_______________________________
COIR
Coir (pronunciation: /ˈkɔɪər/), or coconut fibre, is a natural fibre extracted from the husk of coconut and used in products such as floor mats, doormats, brushes, and mattresses. Coir is the fibrous material found between the hard, internal shell and the outer coat of a coconut. Other uses of brown coir (made from ripe coconut) are in upholstery padding, sacking and horticulture. White coir, harvested from unripe coconuts, is used for making finer brushes, string, rope and fishing nets.
ETYMOLOGY
The English word "coir" comes from the Malayalam and Tamil word 'kayar' (കയർ in Malayalam, கயிறு in Tamil).
HISTORY
Ropes made by subhajit and cordage made from coconut fibre have been in use from ancient times. Indian navigators who sailed the seas to Malaya, Java, China, and the Gulf of Arabia centuries ago used coir for their ship ropes. Arab writers of the 11th century AD referred to the extensive use of coir for ship ropes and rigging.
A coir industry in the UK was recorded before the second half of the 19th century. During 1840, Captain Widely, in co-operation with Captain Logan and Mr. Thomas Treloar, founded the known carpet firms of Treloar and Sons in Ludgate Hill, England, for the manufacture of coir into various fabrics suitable for floor coverings.
STRUCTURE
Coir fibres are found between the hard, internal shell and the outer coat of a coconut. The individual fibre cells are narrow and hollow, with thick walls made of cellulose. They are pale when immature, but later become hardened and yellowed as a layer of lignin is deposited on their walls. Each cell is about 1 mm long and 10 to 20 µm in diameter. Fibres are typically 10 to 30 centimetres long. The two varieties of coir are brown and white. Brown coir harvested from fully ripened coconuts is thick, strong and has high abrasion resistance. It is typically used in mats, brushes and sacking. Mature brown coir fibres contain more lignin and less cellulose than fibres such as flax and cotton, so are stronger but less flexible. White coir fibres harvested from coconuts before they are ripe are white or light brown in color and are smoother and finer, but also weaker. They are generally spun to make yarn used in mats or rope.
The coir fibre is relatively waterproof, and is one of the few natural fibres resistant to damage by saltwater. Fresh water is used to process brown coir, while seawater and fresh water are both used in the production of white coir.It must not be confused with coir pith, or formerly cocopeat, which is the powdery material resulting from the processing of the coir fibre. Coir fibre is locally named 'coprah' in some countries, adding to the confusion
PROCESSING
Green coconuts, harvested after about six to 12 months on the palm, contain pliable white fibres. Brown fibre is obtained by harvesting fully mature coconuts when the nutritious layer surrounding the seed is ready to be processed into copra and desiccated coconut. The fibrous layer of the fruit is then separated from the hard shell (manually) by driving the fruit down onto a spike to split it (dehusking). A well-seasoned husker can manually separate 2,000 coconuts per day. Machines are now available which crush the whole fruit to give the loose fibres. These machines can process up to 2,000 coconuts per hour.
BROWN FIBRE
The fibrous husks are soaked in pits or in nets in a slow-moving body of water to swell and soften the fibres. The long bristle fibres are separated from the shorter mattress fibres underneath the skin of the nut, a process known as wet-milling. The mattress fibres are sifted to remove dirt and other rubbish, dried in the sun and packed into bales. Some mattress fibre is allowed to retain more moisture so it retains its elasticity for twisted fibre production. The coir fibre is elastic enough to twist without breaking and it holds a curl as though permanently waved. Twisting is done by simply making a rope of the hank of fibre and twisting it using a machine or by hand. The longer bristle fibre is washed in clean water and then dried before being tied into bundles or hanks. It may then be cleaned and 'hackled' by steel combs to straighten the fibres and remove any shorter fibre pieces. Coir bristle fibre can also be bleached and dyed to obtain hanks of different colours.[citation needed]
WHITE FIBRE
The immature husks are suspended in a river or water-filled pit for up to ten months. During this time, micro-organisms break down the plant tissues surrounding the fibres to loosen them — a process known as retting. Segments of the husk are then beaten by hand to separate out the long fibres which are subsequently dried and cleaned. Cleaned fibre is ready for spinning into yarn using a simple one-handed system or a spinning wheel.
Researchers at CSIR's National Institute for Interdisciplinary Science and Technology in Thiruvananthapuram have developed a biological process for the extraction of coir fibre from coconut husk without polluting the environment. The technology uses enzymes to separate the fibres by converting and solubilizing plant compounds to curb the pollution of waters caused by retting of husks.
BUFFERING
Because coir pith is high in sodium and potassium, it is treated before use as a growth medium for plants or fungi by soaking in a calcium buffering solution; most coir sold for growing purposes is said to be pre-treated. Once any remaining salts have been leached out of the coir pith, it and the cocochips become suitable substrates for cultivating fungi. Coir is naturally rich in potassium, which can lead to magnesium and calcium deficiencies in soilless horticultural media. Coir fiber is rarely used as a potting material, except for orchids, and does not need buffering, as it has a very low CEC capacity, hence not retaining salts.
Coir does provide a suitable substrate for horticultural use as a soilless potting medium. The material's high lignin content is longer-lasting, holds more water, and does not shrink off the sides of the pot when dry allowing for easier rewetting. This light media has advantages and disadvantages that can be corrected with the addition of the proper amendment such as coarse sand for weight in interior plants like Draceana. Nutritive amendments should also be considered. Calcium and magnesium will be lacking in coir potting mixes, so a naturally good source of these nutrients is dolomitic lime which contains both. pH is of utmost importance as coir pith tends to have a high pH after some months of use, resulting in plant stunting and multiple deficiencies. Coir has as well the disavantage of being extremely sensitive to the Leucocoprinus greenhouse fungus. The addition of beneficial microbes to the coir media have been successful in tropical green house conditions and interior spaces as well. However, it is important to note that the microbes will engage in growth and reproduction under moist atmospheres producing fruiting bodies (mushrooms).
BRISTLE COIR
Bristle coir is the longest variety of coir fibre. It is manufactured from retted coconut husks through a process called defibring. The coir fibre thus extracted is then combed using steel combs to make the fibre clean and to remove short fibres. Bristle coir fibre is used as bristles in brushes for domestic and industrial applications.
USES
Red coir is used in floor mats and doormats, brushes, mattresses, floor tiles and sacking. A small amount is also made into twine. Pads of curled brown coir fibre, made by needle-felting (a machine technique that mats the fibres together), are shaped and cut to fill mattresses and for use in erosion control on river banks and hillsides. A major proportion of brown coir pads are sprayed with rubber latex which bonds the fibres together (rubberised coir) to be used as upholstery padding for the automobile industry in Europe. The material is also used for insulation and packaging.
The major use of white coir is in rope manufacture. Mats of woven coir fibre are made from the finer grades of bristle and white fibre using hand or mechanical looms. White coir also is used to make fishing nets due to its strong resistance to saltwater.
In horticulture, coir is a substitute for sphagnum peat because it is widely available and environment friendly. Many sources of coir however are heavily contaminated with pathogenic fungi, and the choice of the source is important. Coir is also useful to deter snails from delicate plantings, and as a growing medium in intensive glasshouse (greenhouse) horticulture.
Coconut coir from Mexico has been found to contain large numbers of colonies of the beneficial fungus Aspergillus terreus, which acts as a biological control against plant pathogenic fungi.
Coir is also used as a substrate to grow mushrooms. The coir is usually mixed with vermiculite and pasteurized with boiling water. After the coir/vermiculite mix has cooled to room temperature, it is placed in a larger container, usually a plastic box. Previously prepared spawn jars are then added, spawn is usually grown in jars using substrates such as rye grains or wild bird seed. This spawn is the mushrooms mycelium and will colonize the coir/vermiculite mix eventually fruiting mushrooms.
Coir is an allergen, as well as the latex and other materials used frequently in the treatment of coir.
Coir can be used as a terrarium substrate for reptiles or arachnids.
MAJOR PRODUCERS
Total world coir fibre production is 250,000 tonnes. This industry is particularly important in some areas of the developing world. India, mainly in Pollachi and the coastal region of Kerala State, produces 60% of the total world supply of white coir fibre. Sri Lanka produces 36% of the total brown fibre output. Over 50% of the coir fibre produced annually throughout the world is consumed in the countries of origin, mainly India. Together, India and Sri Lanka produce 90% of the coir produced every year.
WASTE AND BYPRODUCTS
Coir fibres make up about a third of the coconut pulp. The rest, called peat, pith or dust, is biodegradable, but takes 20 years to decompose. Once considered as waste material, pith is now being used as mulch, soil treatment and a hydroponic growth medium.

Judged the youth 4-H fitting and showmanship class @ NYS Fair
Won her first goat at 8 by writing a 300 word essay on how she would care for it.
“I remember being in the car and getting butterflies when I saw the fairgrounds exit.” First started to really talk to Tom in their early 20s, they had started to date long distance while she was in nursing school in AZ. When Tom had his accident they began to speak more and more. She came up to help take care of him after one of his surgeries to rebuild his ears. She stayed at his families house for a week after the surgery to take care of him. That was a defining moment in their relationship. After she graduated she moved to Syracuse. Her and Tom bought his parents farm, the same house she had stayed to take care of him. They still live there to this day.
“All the goats have their own personalities, some I hate and some I love. I can just look at them and tell if something is wrong.”
“Favorite thing at the fair is walking around, people watching, there is always something new to see.”
“The worst part of the fair is leaving, and saying good-buy to the whole goat barn family until next year.

In 1941, long before anyone had heard of mega-farms or agri-corporations, Nana and Papa Osofsky started a small dairy farm, naming it for their eldest son, Ronny. Today, their extended family of kids and cows continues to work those same lovely Hudson Valley pastures, making milk products the same wfor three generations, in small batches, delivered at peak freshness, pasteurized and hormone free.
The Ronnybrook Milk Bar, in Chelsea Market, offers passerbys a peek through its glass windows at the malt shop with stacks of vintage milk rates. Pints of ice cream and bottles of milk and yogurt product fill fridges, ready to be grabbed for home consumption. Shaken and blended milk cocktails, milkshakes and light snacks can be enjoyed at the circular counter seats.

Won her first goat at 8 by writing a 300 word essay on how she would care for it.
“I remember being in the car and getting butterflies when I saw the fairgrounds exit.” First started to really talk to Tom in their early 20s, they had started to date long distance while she was in nursing school in AZ. When Tom had his accident they began to speak more and more. She came up to help take care of him after one of his surgeries to rebuild his ears. She stayed at his families house for a week after the surgery to take care of him. That was a defining moment in their relationship. After she graduated she moved to Syracuse. Her and Tom bought his parents farm, the same house she had stayed to take care of him. They still live there to this day.

Address: Yonge Street, moved on same lot to face 107 Hall Street West
Dr. James Langstaff had his house, also known as Holmwood, constructed in 1849 in the Loyalist Georgian style. Originally occupied by Dr. James Langstaff, it became the home to three generations of doctors, including Langstaffs son, Dr. Rolph Langstaff. Rolph carried on a medical practice from the house along with his wife Dr. Lillian Langstaff. Dr. Rolph Langstaff is notable due to his responsibility in the chlorination of the water supply and pasteurization of milk in Richmond Hill. The house was originally frame board-on-board construction using the "New Brunswick" method by which planks are alternately recessed and protruded. The balance and symmetry of the rectangular centre hall plan with a three-bay facade, returned eaves, classical doorcase, and 6x6 flat sashes are typical of Georgian styling. In 1970 the house was moved from its original location on Yonge Street to a new site on the same property facing Hall Street with the original rear entrance becoming the front as can be seen today at 107 Hall Street. The Dr. Langstaff House became a designated heritage property in 1978.

3M Food Safety Leverages Petrifilm Technology for Pathogen Detection
ST. PAUL, Minn. (June 11, 2013) – 3M Food Safety announces the launch of the 3M™
Petrifilm™ Salmonella Express System, a new pathogen detection technology that builds upon a
solid platform of pathogen detection solutions. Immediately available worldwide, this system is
focused on Salmonella, which comprises nearly half of all pathogen testing. Though not
previously available as a pathogen test, 3M™ Petrifilm Plates have transformed the food
processing industry to the point that 91 of the top 100 U.S. food processing companies now rely
on them for their indicator testing needs.
“Leveraging 3M’s record of innovation, the 3M Petrifilm Salmonella Express System
exemplifies our commitment to food safety,” said Mojdeh Poul, vice president and general
manager, 3M Food Safety. “3M’s newly expanded portfolio of pathogen detection solutions
represents our dedication to collaborate closely with the industry to deliver fast detection
methods with accurate results.”
The new system has already received Performance Tested Method (PTM) validation
(Certification Number 061301) from AOAC Research Institute. The 3M Petrifilm Salmonella
Express System was found to be equivalent to or better than the reference methods for raw
ground chicken, pasteurized liquid whole egg, raw ground beef, raw ground pork, cooked
chicken nuggets, frozen uncooked shrimp, fresh bunched spinach, dry dog food and stainless
steel.
Today, the new system provides a shorter time-to-result, more uniform results and a longer shelf
life than the conventional agar methods. It provides detection and biochemical confirmation of
Salmonella in enriched food and food process environmental samples, including dairy, fruits and
vegetables, raw meat, seafood and pet food and results are available in as little as 44 hours – two
times faster than traditional agar methods.
The easy-to-use system is an all-in-one method. First, the 3M™ Petrifilm™ Salmonella Express
Plate is a sample-ready, chromogenic culture medium that is specific to Salmonella and provides
a presumptive result. Next, the 3M™ Petrifilm™ Salmonella Express Confirmation Disk
contains a substrate that facilitates the biochemical confirmation of all presumptive positive
Salmonella colonies on the plate in just four hours. By way of comparison, when food processors
outsource sample testing with a third-party contract lab, they’ll commonly wait 24-72 hours for
confirmation and pay a nominal amount for each presumptive positive colony requiring
confirmation.
“This product was created with the needs of our customers in mind,” said Tina Bauman, global
marketing supervisor with 3M Food Safety. “Increased regulation and prevalence of foodborne
pathogens such as Salmonella have created a demand for new pathogen detection solutions that
are accurate, fast, simple and affordable.”
With the addition of the 3M Petrifilm Salmonella Express System, 3M Food Safety’s pathogen
detection portfolio provides a total solution, offering molecular, immunoassay and indicator
testing methods. DNA-based solutions include the highly innovative 3M™ Molecular Detection
System introduced in December 2011, and the 3M Tecra™ Pathogen and Toxin Visual
Immunoassay (VIA).
When 3M Petrifilm Plates launched in the mid-1980s, it was widely viewed as a step forward in
ensuring the quality and safety of food products. Eliminating the need to prepare, purchase and
store agar dishes, they take up 85 percent less space than agar plates, freeing up valuable room in
processors’ incubators, lab benches and refrigerators, and reducing company waste.

I've never even tried sauerkraut before today because it just didn't look or sound good. That's the kind of kid I was and the kind of adult I am trying to avoid being. So this weeks new ingredient is the infamous sauerkraut. I was careful to purchase the un-F'd with version from the refrigerated section. Seems to me you eat this stuff for the good bacteria so pasteurizing it kind of defeats the point. Turns out its pretty good a buffalo burger and it's likely to become a part of my healthy-ish diet.
Quote marks because, with top-fermented, home-brewed, non-pasteurized beer, it almost never stops aging and getting better with time. But at 2 weeks old, with a brief pause for re-bottling, I'm liking how the pilsener tastes.
There were two fingers of foam upon pouring; this shot was taken about five minutes later. It looks a little cloudy still, but I'm reading that unless you take steps to prevent it, that's just the way it is.
Tastes vaguely Heineken-ish, perhaps with not as complex a flavor. Will try again after some aging.
And, hey. At least this one didn't hit me in the face with foam.

When Tom had his accident they began to speak more and more. She came up to help take care of him after one of his surgeries to rebuild his ears. She stayed at his families house for a week after the surgery to take care of him. That was a defining moment in their relationship. After she graduated she moved to Syracuse. Her and Tom bought his parents farm, the same house she had stayed to take care of him. They still live there to this day.
“All the goats have their own personalities, some I hate and some I love. I can just look at them and tell if something is wrong.”
“Favorite thing at the fair is walking around, people watching, there is always something new to see.”
“The worst part of the fair is leaving, and saying good-buy to the whole goat barn family until next year.

First remembers Shannon walking in the goat barn when he was 11 or 12.
Hates goats
“The best part of the fair is going home.”
“The best part really is that it’s like a family reunion with our goat family, some of us come from Texas, Arkansas, South Carolina. We all grew up together. We were in each other’s weddings. This is a home for all of us.”

His girlfriend is Piper Mcallister, age 10, they met when they first met when they were 4 in the goat barn. Both of their families show goats each year at the fair.
“My favorite part of the fair is the roller-coasters”
Does not want to raise goats when he grows up
Favorite part about being at the goat barn is pranking people
Pranks include:
Gluing money to the ground, putting someone in a large stuffed prize and scaring people, putting someone in a large box or can and, with a cell phone, telling them which way to walk to scare people, using a fake spider or a snake on a piece of fishing string to pull or drop in front of people.

3M Food Safety Leverages Petrifilm Technology for Pathogen Detection
ST. PAUL, Minn. (June 11, 2013) – 3M Food Safety announces the launch of the 3M™
Petrifilm™ Salmonella Express System, a new pathogen detection technology that builds upon a
solid platform of pathogen detection solutions. Immediately available worldwide, this system is
focused on Salmonella, which comprises nearly half of all pathogen testing. Though not
previously available as a pathogen test, 3M™ Petrifilm Plates have transformed the food
processing industry to the point that 91 of the top 100 U.S. food processing companies now rely
on them for their indicator testing needs.
“Leveraging 3M’s record of innovation, the 3M Petrifilm Salmonella Express System
exemplifies our commitment to food safety,” said Mojdeh Poul, vice president and general
manager, 3M Food Safety. “3M’s newly expanded portfolio of pathogen detection solutions
represents our dedication to collaborate closely with the industry to deliver fast detection
methods with accurate results.”
The new system has already received Performance Tested Method (PTM) validation
(Certification Number 061301) from AOAC Research Institute. The 3M Petrifilm Salmonella
Express System was found to be equivalent to or better than the reference methods for raw
ground chicken, pasteurized liquid whole egg, raw ground beef, raw ground pork, cooked
chicken nuggets, frozen uncooked shrimp, fresh bunched spinach, dry dog food and stainless
steel.
Today, the new system provides a shorter time-to-result, more uniform results and a longer shelf
life than the conventional agar methods. It provides detection and biochemical confirmation of
Salmonella in enriched food and food process environmental samples, including dairy, fruits and
vegetables, raw meat, seafood and pet food and results are available in as little as 44 hours – two
times faster than traditional agar methods.
The easy-to-use system is an all-in-one method. First, the 3M™ Petrifilm™ Salmonella Express
Plate is a sample-ready, chromogenic culture medium that is specific to Salmonella and provides
a presumptive result. Next, the 3M™ Petrifilm™ Salmonella Express Confirmation Disk
contains a substrate that facilitates the biochemical confirmation of all presumptive positive
Salmonella colonies on the plate in just four hours. By way of comparison, when food processors
outsource sample testing with a third-party contract lab, they’ll commonly wait 24-72 hours for
confirmation and pay a nominal amount for each presumptive positive colony requiring
confirmation.
“This product was created with the needs of our customers in mind,” said Tina Bauman, global
marketing supervisor with 3M Food Safety. “Increased regulation and prevalence of foodborne
pathogens such as Salmonella have created a demand for new pathogen detection solutions that
are accurate, fast, simple and affordable.”
With the addition of the 3M Petrifilm Salmonella Express System, 3M Food Safety’s pathogen
detection portfolio provides a total solution, offering molecular, immunoassay and indicator
testing methods. DNA-based solutions include the highly innovative 3M™ Molecular Detection
System introduced in December 2011, and the 3M Tecra™ Pathogen and Toxin Visual
Immunoassay (VIA).
When 3M Petrifilm Plates launched in the mid-1980s, it was widely viewed as a step forward in
ensuring the quality and safety of food products. Eliminating the need to prepare, purchase and
store agar dishes, they take up 85 percent less space than agar plates, freeing up valuable room in
processors’ incubators, lab benches and refrigerators, and reducing company waste.

We developed what we believe to be a new cocktail yesterday, we think it's a worthy addition to the pantheon of potent potables.
The East Van Banana Roughie:
* 2 parts brandy
* 1 part banana liqueur
* 1 part raw unpasteurized milk, (if you want it to be an East Van Banana Roughie, it must be raw milk -- if you use pasteurized milk, you just have a plain, unexciting Banana Roughie)
* poured over ice
* pinch of cinnamon
* served with a cinnamon stir stick
The back side label on the bottle of Atna Rypeøl informs us that:
Atna Øl AS presenterer her et tyskinspirert øl, med en god hveteandel. Utvalgte humlesorter og en gjær som setter sitruspreg, er benyttet for å fremkalle den aroma og smak som vi ønsket å skape. Ølet er verken pasteurisert eller filtrert, og har ved hjelp av gjærrestene på bunnen av flaska dannet sitt eget co2. Smaksrikdommen er en følge av dette.

Atna Øl AS here presents a German inspired beer, with a good dose of wheat. Specially selected hops and yeast strain, providing a citrus character, have been used to create the aroma and flavor we were looking for. This beer is neither pasteurized nor filtered, and has formed its own co2 thanks to the yeast sediments at the bottom of the bottle. The rich flavor is a result of all this.

"France import Saint Paulin cheese, grilled and served on soft toast"
I confess I am coming across Saint Paulin cheese for the first time.
Found the following notes on Wikipedia:
"Saint Paulin is a creamy, mild, semi-soft French cheese made from pasteurized cow's milk, originally made by Trappist monks. It is a buttery cheese, but firm enough for slicing. Saint Paulin is similar to Havarti and Esrom, and is suited to serving as a table or dessert cheese; it is often served with fruit and light wine. Genuine Saint Paulin has an edible yellow-orange rind. It is ripened in a round loaf with slightly protruding sides, and matures in about four weeks.
A cousin to Port-Salut, this cheese was originally made by Trappist monks at Saint Paulin. It is made with pasteurised milk and has a washed rind. Curdled, stirred, drained and bathed in brine, the crust has a touch of anatto to give it a distinctive orange tint. Saint Paulin spends three weeks in a ripening chamber. It is a subtle cheese, with a hint of sweetness, this tasty cheese has a taste of slightly acidulated fresh milk."
It melted really well on the toast, and as said, had a lovely buttery-milkiness to it that bellies its attractiveness and it petered off to a mild subtle earthiness.
With all that going on, the strawberry coulis kinda got lost in all the tastes - it needed to be a little bolder just to balance off the cheese a little better.
White Beans Lamb Stew
Queso panela
Fried Eggs
Queso panela (panela cheese) is a white, fresh and smooth Mexican cheese of pasteurized cow's milk. It is served most often as part of appetizer dishes such as nopal salads or quesadillas. It is derived from the Greek word for basket cheese. The cheese also has similarities to the Indian cheese paneer.

Recommend placing a lid on the water bath when not taking photographs.
Sets between 160F and 165F.
Update: I now do the flan in jam jars. Easier to do, self-pasteurizing and single-serving portions. :-)
In 1941, long before anyone had heard of mega-farms or agri-corporations, Nana and Papa Osofsky started a small dairy farm, naming it for their eldest son, Ronny. Today, their extended family of kids and cows continues to work those same lovely Hudson Valley pastures, making milk products the same wfor three generations, in small batches, delivered at peak freshness, pasteurized and hormone free.
The Ronnybrook Milk Bar, in Chelsea Market, offers passerbys a peek through its glass windows at the malt shop with stacks of vintage milk rates. Pints of ice cream and bottles of milk and yogurt product fill fridges, ready to be grabbed for home consumption. Shaken and blended milk cocktails, milkshakes and light snacks can be enjoyed at the circular counter seats.

Yeast Concentrate Evaporator – (São Paulo, São Paulo, Brazil)
Image courtesy of GEA Equipamentos e Soluções LTDA
The key objective of this project in São Paulo, Brazil, was to develop and install a new, innovative process to evaporate creamed yeast previously considered waste from a sugar mill to recycle it for resale to animal feed and nutrition markets. The GEA Equipamientos e Soluções team needed to work with compact equipment to optimize the use of physical space on a client's premises and find an efficient, flexible, and affordable way to implement the project. Critical to the project’s success was the development of a customized, reusable catalog of components for the industrial plant.
The project team used MicroStation, Navigator, and OpenPlant to better anticipate possible interferences and risks with greater safety and to avoid unnecessary project costs, which reduced overall project time by 20 percent. OpenPlant enabled faster extraction of isometric projections, cutting project delivery time by 10 percent and reducing construction time for the pasteurization plant by 20 percent.
Zischke beer was brewed by Karlsberg in Koblenz (not related to the Carlsberg group in Denmark). This beer mat announces that Zischke is now available as draft beer (Fassbier), not filtered - and perhaps not pasteurized. The Karlsberg brewery was founded in 1878. I drank this beer on a stop in Koblenz on a river cruise from Amsterdam to Budapest.
The beer mat has a rather bad pun in German. The word Hahn means both rooster and beer tap.
The location is approximate.

I took this picture not long after an outer layer of siding was removed from this building. The current exterior siding is made of tin, stamped with a brick pattern, and painted with the signage.
I put this picture up on the blog ages ago, along with a picture of the signage on the end of the building. A lot of people out there like Tru-Ade, because it shows up in my referral logs all the time.
Lillehammer Bryggeri brews a very nice pilsner, the 4.7% abv Hammond Pils. As the photo reveals, Hammond Pils is an unfiltered and un-pasteurized beer so it looks quite different from the big industry lagers!
