Pro Mash and Wine

I'm talking about Wine, the software, not wine, the beverage.

I have long wanted to try Pro Mash, but I run Linux (currently the Ubuntu flavor). Whenever I would use Wine, the windows compatibility layer, to run it, the icons would not show up on the screen.

One day I discovered by accident that Wine is not set to XP by default; I changed it and now all is well.

So I got my copy of Pro Mash, and will try a real brew with it in the next few days.

Since the last post, I've only done two beer brews. And faithfully read Hunahpu's blog.

The first thing I need to do is calibrate the thermal mass setting. I'll explain in my next post how to do that.
