The Corny is less than half full, and I was super gentle placing it on the shelf. I might place something atop the shelf for future protection.

Under the shelf is better. So the shelf is resting on supports
I repeat the caution about the shelves: get a piece of plywood that fits tightly to put on top of the glass. Even though it’s tempered it’ll still break.
So, instead of dumping it, make it your third beer of the night whenever you have more than two. By that time your tastebuds will be off a bit and you won’t mind.
Even though the Amber Ale was well carbonated (natural), and there is still pressure in the keg, the beer pours flat. The keg has been disconnected from CO2 for months. All I get from it is an overwhelming maltiness without any hop presence or carbonic bite. I wonder if it could be carbonated again?
Absolutely, re-carb any time.
It might be pressurized, but at maybe only 3 psi, which is flat. Just like the initial carbonation, put it on at 14 psi for a couple days or, if you prefer to disconnect the pressure, pop it up to 35-40 and check it daily. The co2 will soak back into the beer and the pressure will drop. If it gets to 14 or less, pump it up a bit again. When it kinda stabilizes, set the final pressure and enjoy.

Can't hurt anything. If it still isn't good, then water the pants with it.
I really hate it when I water my pants. Even at my age, it's still embarrassing.Can't hurt anything. If it still isn't good, then water the pants with it.

My new samples tray arrived,with chalkboard
William’s brewing was running a sale on the Oxbar keg system so that was delivered. Will be good for cleaning lines, disconnects etc. plus overflow if I make a batch larger than anticipated
Got the 4 way duotight regulator board so that i can split off to individual lines and also have a line for the beer gun
Today I received a case (25) of LED fluorescent-tube replacements. Now that the town’s recycling center charges $1 a tube to dispose of them (used to be free) I’m done with fluorescents. I need to rewire the fixtures to remove the ballast - they run on line voltage - but as tubes fail, I’ll keep the good tube as a spare and rewire the 2-tube fixtures one at a time.

Same. Ordered a lb each of Simcoe and Amarillo, and 8oz of Magnum and Idaho 7. I have unopened lb bags of Citra Mosaic and Galaxy in the freezer right now. Just waiting to get my ducks in a row and hit some brewing days soon. Gotta empty some kegs too....
I just bought a bunch of the 4-foot Braun LED fixtures for my garage, same stuff I put in my shop. They’re very bright and so far so good. They ones in the shop are 4 years old and nary a failure yet. Gets rid of the tombstone fixtures altogether and looks better too. Got ‘em for $16 each, but they might be a little more now. Also put ‘em in the laundry room in the basement and under the stairs in a storage area. Lit the place up good.
