Upgraded Bitcoin mining clothes dryer has been a huge improvement over the original setup. Now that I can attenuate the power consumption/hashrate with 3rd party firmware, I can essentially run the dryer on different presets based on what I'm drying. Also, with lower fan speeds, the positive pressure in the drum is reduced which means less lint and heat escaping into the room. #permaculture #permies #homesteading #meshtadel #bitcoin #mining #bitcoinmining #homemining #plebminer View quoted note →

Cooking hash-vide style rabbit ramen with Bitcoin mining hot water heater The second meal cooked in the Bitcoin mining hot water heater is rabbit ramen soup. Rabbit grown and harvested right here at the homestead, along with these other ingredients from the homestead rabbit stock, garlic, and finally golden oyster mushrooms dehydrated with a Bitcoin miner. Soy sauce, rice vinegar, lemon, sesame oil, Japanese seven spice, salt, pepper, butter. All ingredients went into a silicone bag and submerged in the hot canola oil tank of the bitcoin mining hot water heater for 3 days. Hard to beat mining Bitcoin, heating water, and cooking food all at the same time. I can get the water up to 150f out of the tap with only 1500w of power consumption for the total system, miner, pumps, and all! Another super cool aspect of this mining setup is that it runs on 110v power instead of 220v. Not having access to a 220v circuit is often a limiting factor for pleb miners, especially when these sorts of applications don't always require so much power. By modifying the apw12 PSU and making a custom power cord, now I can plug the miner into an existing 110v circuit. It cost less than $20 to do the modification on the PSU plus using a modified apw12 vs a Loki + apw3++ allows for voltage attenuation and higher total power output. #permaculture #permies #homesteading #meshtadel #bitcoin #bitcoinmining #plebminer #homeminer #sousvide #rabbit #ramen #foodstr #stackingfunctions #doublespendenergy View quoted note →
