      60' cycle, 60C°, max RPM, turn inside out. You won't lose much/ any indigo.

        A wash will always give you more shrinkage than a comparable temperature soak.  Follow Seul's advice.

          Oh shit, the Triumvirate must be up to something…

                Does anyone know of a model fridge (standard fridge) with a temperature that goes up to 10 or even 12C°?.. Nothing like the Electrolux Ecostore though, really a standard household fridge…

                  Eli, that might not exist, though you could use a temperature controller like this http://www.amazon.com/RANCO-ETC-111000-Digital-Temperature-Control/dp/B0015NV5BE to maintain any temp you want. I used to use that controller for my beer fermenting fridge to maintain about 55F.

                      Seul, when my dad wanted to store wine (for at least several years) he started looking at those specialist wine cooler fridges but thought they were riculously overpriced. An electrical engineer of some kind told him that a normal fridge could easily be modified to work within a different temperature range, and as far as I know that's what he did.

                        It uses very little power. It actually makes your fridge more efficient if you're keeping it a little warmer. It works just like the on-board thermostat, but it kills the power to the whole fridge to regulate the temp. It's basically a big on/off switch for your fridge.

                        I brewed beer for a couple years. I probably made about 60, 5 Gallon batches in that time. I was once involved in a beer brewing group and we focused on sour beers that we then aged in wine and bourbon barrels. One of the guys in the group was a pro brewer, and two of the guys have gone pro since. They would take all of the leftover yeast from Belgian beer bottles and add it to the barrels. We had quite a bouquet of Brettanomyces in those barrels. Here's a link to a blog written by one of the guys from the brewing group. http://www.themadfermentationist.com/2011/01/sour-brown-barrel-day-3.html

                            I can't seem to find a thread in Bottoms for Iron Heart x Pronto 25oz Collaboration (PIH2DC).

                            Should there be one? I'm curious if others have purchased this model, what the fit is like, etc.

                              I'm guessing it's because of the speed at which it sold out in ThailandI don't think that many (if any) pairs made it outside of the country.

                                Same fit as the previous 2 collabs with Pronto, this time made out of 25oz…..

                                            Theory: dropping a bunch of coin on something that will show stains easily isn't something people want to do.
