Re: What Preps are you doing this week? Part 1
Water is the other one. Plenty is stored.On top is rain catchment/ filter / treatment,along with the brook if really needed. Mind you ,if rain water onward takes over,then society is in a mess! That’s pretty much the *emergency* scenario. All prepped for,so that’s good. Jansman, you've really got i...

Re: Powdered egg ?
Protein sources may be most valuable in the future, rice and pasta can only go so far. This post is rather late, but indeed powdered egg is a very useful protein source for me, as I don't eat meat. To make life easy for myself, I can poach them hard in one of those small silicone rubber "cups&...

Re: What Preps are you doing this week? Part 11
Had to use the superglue out of my emergency grab bag. Was having to squeeze loads to get a drop out. Is it supposed to be like that? It was a hard plastic bottle. I've found that superglue has a definite shelf life. This probably varies between brands and on storage temperature, and the adhesive t...

Re: Uses for Flour.
I've done a lot of research into frying, poaching (of eggs), and making farls, American pancakes and chapatis. I don't use non - stick pans, because even good ones don't last very long apparently and are not cheap. I followed the suggestion of making chapatis, and I had a good result, although the p...

Re: Uses for Flour.
If using milk instead of buttermilk I would add some lemon juice. Buttermilk is acid which reacts with the bicarb to get the farl to rise. If using milkyou will need to add the acid seperately. https://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/homemade-buttermilk I don't use lemon juice, but do have vinegar, so ...

Re: What Preps are you doing this week? Part 11
I don't use a smartphone or any smart technology. Can this camera be used without a smartphone; in other words can one just check the internal memory (presumably it's a micro SD card) using a PC and card reader? I'm having difficulty finding Internet or smartphone - free CCTV. I have got working a ...

Re: Uses for Flour.
Thanks for the advice. A quick check with eBay gives 1Kg whole egg powder at between £24 and £35 and white only at about £37. Regarding protein, my existing long - term source is tinned sardines (last for years); I don't eat meat. I need to figure out how I'm going to integrate dried eggs (and poss...

Re: Uses for Flour.
Egg powder can be bought online and would be a good thing to store simply because of it's protein content. The body building community likes egg white powder which would also work and may be easier to find. There are a lot of possible egg substitutes - most are trying to replace just one aspect of ...
