I told myself I would, and I did... 500 pages...
I almost felt like waiting until post 4999 to post, but that would be Sacrilegious to the posters that have kept this thread going! Even though the same questions kept getting asked and answered every other page, it was still informative. I have never, and will probably never again, see a fermentor with a condom for an airlock.
From everthing I have read in this thread, I have seen so many variations in sugars, yeasts, juice/cider, etc. Only once did I see someone experiement with 2 different yeasts in the same batch. My question, after all this reading, what about Monty and Cotes together? An Ale and Monty together?
Due to my wife getting laid off last week
(when I started reading this) I am in no condition to go buy a bunch of stuff. I've not brewed anything before, so I have no supplies. However, I am going to jump the gun and use my 'free' bottle from work to whip a batch up. (Sparkletts Polycarb) I know there is a lot of controversy surrounding using these bottles, but a few people whom I've grown to respect through these posts make me think its ok to do. By 4 weeks or so, I should be able to amass something between ghetto and decent.
Thanks everyone for your years of posts on this, thank you Ed for starting this. I hope this continues for years to come so I can be a apfelwein old timer!
