Do you still have any carboys?

Raspberries go well with other berries and citrus... Maybe mango? If you started with fresh fruit, I would continue down that path... It's easier and you know it will have great flavor!

Excellent. I will cover it today and let it finish up.

Thanks yooper! We have racked and it's a lot more active looking in the bottle than it was in the bucket, but I assume that's a bit mis leading as the bucket didn't come to a narrow mouth and it wasn't see through. Should I be worried about light exposure or any thing?

I actually have a recipe for a wine type fermentation of coffee. I am thinking about trying it- it sounds like few here have done it, so maybe I will start after I rack my plum wine...

I am making plum wine from fruit and honey and followed the recipe to the letter. I am at 10 days of fermentation with the fruit still in the bucket and a SG of 1.020 on my way to 1.000 according to the book I am following. The fermentation has dropped off considerably only losing .005/day and...

California home brewers get 100gal of beer and wine for a single person at an address and 200 of beer and wine per multiple people at the one dwelling. I personally would love to get to the 400 gallon mark. But I haven't the space to do 20 concurrently.

Jgln, I would love to know if that place is still near by you... What city state are you in? I do know that it's not for everybody, but I can only do 6 talons all the way through to bottling in my house and waiting 6 months for feedback and only getting a few gallons a year isn't exciting to...

Awww yes, bitten by the bug. I had a friend with an overburdened plum tree and 11 pounds of honey from his hive... I have a batch going now and I am already trying to figure out the next fermentation while my wine is resting for a few months.

I have been thinking a lot about this and I think there would be a market for work space rental and storage. See in California the place in Sac only can allow you to brew their beer and you have to buy it from them- but in California, whether or not they are adding the yeast or not, it isn't...
