And the verge of 1,000 posts and 500 gallons. Whoo Hoo!
Who's drinking any tonight?
I'm drinking if we ever bottle tonight... Unfortunately we don't have quite enough bottles... Might have to resort to using the apple juice containers. After all the amount that will be in the apple juice container will be drank by people who don't care all that much as long as it has alcohol. lol...

Apple juice jugs work fine. Just sanitize them and drink that stuff first. Done it myself in the earlier days and when I use my 6 gallon Better Bottle. 5 in the keg and 1 in a jug.

Damn - I feel like I'm being left behind here. Mine is still bubbling at 8 weeks. Its really slow now, about 8 per minute. At least the cider is pretty clear.

After 48 hours my first batch is bubbling and burping like crazy! Its actually pretty cool to watch. I was a little worried because when I pitched the yeast I didnt realize till after the fact that my juice temp was probably about 50 deg F when I made the batch. A little on the cold side. But after it warmed up to room temp and I spun the carboy to suspend the yeast she is off and running.
Note to self: next time make sure juice is at room temp before pitching yeast...DUH!
