Are you even sciencing if you don't drink some piss you found in a beaker somewhere?

Well, you could say beer is yeast piss.

I'll have another (lab brewed yeast piss. From malted grain. Sometimes with hops)

malted grain

You mean aborted barley fetuses?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago

My mistake!

Roasted fetal barley abortions.

Thanks for the wake up

Observation: this looks like piss} Question: is this piss?} Hypothesis: this is probably piss} Experiment: drink the piss} Analysis: tastes like piss} Conclusion: it’s piss

Inconclusive: the data is also a perfect fit for domestic American light beer.

Thats my schoolmate, he licks everything. Including liquid nitrogen.

How do you know it tastes like piss if you've never tasted piss before?

Better piss in a cup and taste it to make sure we get a nice baseline.

could also check for urea content, or proteins, but sure why not drink it

[–] [email protected] 13 points 2 months ago

I mean, drinking it (well tasting) used to be the legit way of testing it.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 months ago

Yeah, check for all of that using the high fidelity, self calibrating sensory cluster.

Sometimes it be like that.

This is probably worse than piss.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago

Worse health-wise, but probably not worse in how disgusting one would think it is to drink.
