Fermenta Collective: Tempeh, from Home to Berlin

Fri, Oct 16, 4:00 PM

From Berlin Fermenta Collective Meetup Group

Fermenta Collective presents Tempeh, from Home to Berlin For Feydrea & Sam, tempeh is more than a meat substitute. It's a food they grew up with, cooked in many different ways across Southeast Asia, and one that carries stories of home. This month, Fermenta Collective welcomes an Indonesian and Singaporean duo with shared Peranakan roots. In this hands-on workshop, they'll share their memories of tempeh, talk about where it comes from and the many ways it's made and eaten, and show you how to make it here in Berlin. Together we'll look at what happens when a food with a long history meets the ingredients and kitchens we have here, with a few German twists along the way. We'll finish around the table with a simple home-cooked Peranakan dinner featuring tempeh, so we can taste and talk together. Come curious, come hungry, and come ready to make something with your hands. What to bring Materials and utensils are provided on site to share. If you have them, please also bring: For the workshop: 1–2 large bowls (bigger than your palm), a mesh strainer, clean kitchen towels To take your culture home: a 0.25–0.5 L jar (Sturzglas) or a perforated metal container, an insulated bag or thick towels, and a heating pad Optional: 150–250 g of your own beans, if you'd like to work with a particular kind. Please bring them cooked, chilled and, if possible, peeled. Tinned or jarred beans don't work well because of the extra water and additives.

Thu, Oct 29, 5:00 PM

From Berlin Fermenta Collective Meetup Group

We share what we’ve learned from our own batches, give practical advice, and encourage you to trust your senses and experiment. And of course, you can’t go home empty-handed: you’ll leave with your own 4L jar of kombucha to ferment at home. The SCOBY, starter liquid, and practical tips for keeping it happy are included. As well as vegan snacks and kombucha to drink, of course! You don’t need to bring any equipment, just a roomy bag or backpack for your big jar. Come thirsty for knowledge and ready to ferment!

See & Discuss #01: Cattelan - Neue Nationalgalerie

Sun, Nov 1, 5:00 PM

From Art After Hours

For our first meetup, we’re diving into the world of Maurizio Cattelan at Berlin’s Neue Nationalgalerie. Known for his provocative, often ironic works, Cattelan has a way of making us laugh, feel uncomfortable, question what we’re seeing — and sometimes wonder whether it’s art at all. Have you visited the exhibition? Let’s get together to share our impressions, exchange perspectives, and discuss what we think lies behind the work. We’ll kick things off with a few conversation prompts before settling into a relaxed, open discussion. Afterwards, we’ll continue over drinks and get to know each other. No art expertise required, no right or wrong answers — just curiosity, an open mind, and a willingness to share your thoughts. **Important**: Please visit the exhibition independently before the meetup. You don’t need to prepare anything — just come with your impressions! https://www.smb.museum/en/exhibitions/detail/maurizio-cattelan-night/ Let’s see what happens when we look at the same art through different eyes. ✨

@ Anna Blume - A cozy book swap and chat meetup!

Fri, Oct 16, 5:00 PM

From For all you book-lovers: Berlin Book Swap (and more)

4.7

The "classical" bookswap is simple: * We meet in a café and put the book(s) we brought down on the tables. * We go around to browse and discuss the books with one another while sipping coffee or hot chocolate, or eating cake. * We write our names down on any books we’d like to take home (post-its and pens provided). * At the end of the evening, negotiate any books that are contended and take a new-to-you book home! Books/happiness shared are books/happiness multiplied! A Bookswap is 10 times better than a Book Club because you can talk about ALL the books instead of just one! This is a great way to give your books a new home and make room for new books: that book you feel guilty for not having read even though it's been sitting on your bedside table for the last 5 years, the book you liked but didn't love, the book you loved so much you want everyone to read it, the book you somehow own three copies of, that book you absolutely hated even though everyone else loves it, and so on. Moreover, you will meet fellow readers, get a new book or two, and several book recommendations. We’ve often had readers experience books they wouldn't normally buy and enjoy it. GROUP EXPECTATIONS for PLEASANT SWAPPING * Please bring a book! It's not that you bring one you take one, but do try your best to bring something. * Books stay on the tables, open for sharing, until you are ready to leave so that everyone can have a look. We are notably not first come first serve. Please wait until you are leaving to bag the book. * If two or more people want the only copy of a book, negotiate. Maybe one of you reads it first and then gives it to the others. Or perhaps they have found another book instead. Or leave it to fate and toss a coin. The best part: now you have found somebody whose taste you can really admire. In any case, please don't walk away with a book with several names on it without letting the others know. These negotiations are fun and easy, so don't shy away from a book because there's already a name on it, and feel free to put your name on as many books as you find interesting. It's not that you bring one you take one; you may take as many as you can negotiate. * Political discussions with consent: make sure the people you are talking to would like to have a political discussion with you. * Please respect this space as first and foremost a community for connecting readers over their love of books and reading, stories, and narratives of all sorts. Please be respectful of tastes and opinions. * If something is bothering you, please reach out to the organizers, and we'll do our best to resolve it. * Lastly, don't expect your book back. It will find a new home. If you love it, let it go. Major LANGUAGES (and genres) of this meetup: English, German, French, Spanish, Italian; Fiction, Non-Fiction, Serious Reading, Light Fun, “classics", Krimis, Booker winners, Sci-Fi, Fantasy, Self-Help and more. You never know who can read what languages, and there's no accounting for taste. We are a delightful and international group of readers. We look forward to swapping with you!
