I know that this is a wine forum, Iv'e looked for a vinegar one with no avail on HBT.com.
I am just looking for a show of hands of who makes vinegar. From anything. Your wine or mead is preferred but, if you make it at all raise your hand. I'm going to start. I am thinking of making it with the little amounts that I have left over.
For example, when I go from primary to secondary I usually have overshot my secondary by a half gallon or so on larger batches. I usually put that in growlers or whatever for the first carboy to carboy racking (into ternary). But then after that, I don't want smaller containers trailing my larger batches since I loose very little from rack to rack and space is a premium.
I was thinking if I make vinegar from those half gallons or so, that would be better than quenching my sinks thirst, right? Ok: before you go berzerk on me for dumping early wine; I only dump if I can't get no headspace on a half gallon growler. That's the stuff I would now make wine from.
If there is enough folks who do make vinegar, maybe a forum addition down by the cheese making and meat smoking would be in order. If not, I will ask my questions on a different vinegar making forum all together. Not a huge deal, I just like the community here is all.
I haven't been here long. I made an account only after reading for a few months or so. I can't speak if this topic comes up from time to time or not.
Thanks!
