AI Thread Summary
Persistent redness in the left eye since Thursday, worsening with use, raises concerns about potential underlying issues. While the right eye is improving, the left eye's condition warrants medical attention if symptoms continue. Possible causes include irritation from a foreign particle, infection such as pink eye, excessive rubbing, or allergies. Consulting a doctor is advised for proper diagnosis and treatment.

A doctor can take a look and help find the reason and prescribe treatment if necessary.

Thread 'Fermentation using mixed legume and grain feedstock'

I use ethanol for cleaning glassware and resin 3D prints. The glassware is sometimes used for food. If possible, I'd prefer to only keep one grade of ethanol on hand. I've made sugar mash, but that is hardly the least expensive feedstock for ethanol. I had given some thought to using wheat flour, and for this I would need a source for amylase enzyme (relevant data, but not the core question). I am now considering animal feed that I have access to for 20 cents per pound. This is a...
