    Whoops

    Lately USPS has been taking about a month to get to Canada. I’ve gotten used to the cadence. You order your next couple pounds as soon as the box arrives. on a whim I tried fedex for kalm with kava. Unbelievably it was here in two days. I’m now sitting on 12 pounds of kava, a litre of...

    Powdered Kava Review Loa Waka

    I just. Can’t. Get the krunk with this. I remember I had a pound of the old stuff forgotten in a corner of my cupboard a few years back. That was the real deal. Since then every batch has been weeeak! And mind bending lethargy the next day. Kalm with Kava, go back to your roots. I miss you!

    Mo’i by GHK chemotype working for sleep!

    I really struggled with kava interrupting my sleep and making me a zombie the next day. Heavy Kava’s actually kept me up. By all accounts moi should not be a solution. The kavain is supposed to be heady. For some reason though it’s the best sleep I’ve had in a while. This reminds me of...

    Kava prep hack

    Use a kitchen strainer and dump in the same ratio of root and water you always do. Damn this is fast; 30 seconds. Grog is not chunky, same as alu ball. Size (micron width) of mesh doesn’t seem to matter.

    The good stuff

    A friend of mine just got back from Fiji where she packed a pound in her suitcase for me. All your suspicions are confirmed; they don’t send us the good stuff. On another note. Has anyone tried roasting their kava? It works for coffee and who would have thought that?

    Fijian strength reduction

    I got the below response from a reputable vendor when I asked why their Fijian Waka was so weak "We do routine testing of all our incoming shipments and can confirm a overall decrease in strength of some Fijian kava throughout the entire industry over the last 3 years with the high demand of...

    Days off?

    The last two months or so have been epic. Haven’t touched booze where I would normally have 2-3 drinks a day. Lost 15 pounds of useless fat. I have more energy and am a happier person. With the stoic mind-over-matter control of a Shao-Lin monk I chugged down about a cup of dry root a day...

    Your Aluball Ritual

    I've been rocking the Aluball for a bit now. It's great. Curious what your prep method using it is. Here's mine I have two Aluballs. I almost fill each half ball, and then screw them back together. Sometimes I add cinnamon because Shannon in sobriety was right. I'll do a minute ish wash, chug...

    Nakamals must have crash pads

    I’ve been thinking about this. Two or three shells and I’m looking for the nearest flat surface to konk out on. So how do nakamals deal with this?

    Return of the Head-i

    I thought I was strong, but I was not strong enough. I could not control the gag. I left kava about 3 years ago, as I just could not handle the flavour any more. I also found Kava kept me up at night, which was frustrating and wrong. The dark side won with me; I returned to booze after my taste...

    I am a boil up convert.

    I delayed this as long as possible. My demons and moral conflict made me put it off- Fear of divorce. Laziness. The gospel of Adil. (1:55 time mark ) Finally I caved. The high US dollar. A new son who is finding ways to spend my money- all these pressures. So I gave it a try. Boiled kava not...

    Currency Exchange and Kava prices

    So with the USD outperforming every major currency, kava farmers are getting more inflation adjusted dollars for their root if they are being paid in USD. -Are importers buying with USD, or local currency? Here's why I ask- when I started kava, the CDN/USD exchange rate was 1:1 mw its 0.69 USD...

    Update on instants and flavors?

    How is the world of instants coming along? After two years I am less and less tolerant of the flavor: Nemo had the same problem I think. It gets harder to get excited about chugging swamp juice. Its to the point where my kava ritual is a 10 minute exercise in getting the bloody stuff as cold as...

    Fill me in- what have I missed?

    Hey Kids Whats new? I've been away for a while. Had to take a break from the flavour. Has anyone figured out a fix for that in my absence? Kicking back with some PK blend #7, wash and toss because I'm over kneading it. So over.

    Member Soapbox have ya'll figured out the flava thing?

    I love kava, I really do. BUT I hate the sneezy vomiting shaky thing i turn into after thinking about the flava. SO What's the latest and greatest on kava flava masking? Peacefully Skywalker

    Well. We know how that works out. Its a trip to the krunk room and back, full of low drama and easy stress. Although, at one point, I was like:

    Rood beer syrup

    Hello friends. I went to Maui recently and came back to Canada with 14 pounds. So I've been busy. But not to busy to share. There are two things that have worked for me. 1- lime jus! 2- Root beer syrup. Srsly, try that last one, it's redonk. Anyone else sleepless on kava?
