I've been brewing a lot of beer, having trouble keeping up with demand lately. I use the spent grains from brewing to make bread, it's delicious. I'm not an expert bread maker, I do the no-kneed bread with packaged yeast I managed to get before they ran out. I just substitute some of the flour with the beer grains. With grains from a stout or porter I make a dark rye by blending the grains with the rye flour. I'll be making a loaf today or tomorrow using grains from a robust porter I brewed a few weeks ago. Like Peter I use a cast iron Dutch Oven to bake the bread.
Update on our friends son that got shot when he snuck out of self isolation to play basketball. He has been on a ventilator for 3 weeks now, he has a fever and an infection in his lungs that wont go away. The doctors don't understand why it wont go away. He's just starting to breath a little bit on his own, they may take him off the ventilator and give him a trachea. They have tested him for the Coronavirus, so far he hasn't caught it in the hospital. The doctors decided that they won't operate, the bullet fragments will have to stay in him. He has been able to use at least one arm, tried to pull his ventilator out when he woke up. He will be paralyzed at least from the waist down they just don't know exactly how bad it is yet.
He just turned 18 a few days ago, we sent a video for his birthday, he enjoyed getting all the messages from friends and family. His mother is now able to visit him almost every day, he's communicating to her by blinking his eyes for yes and no.
