About to start a small batch of apple, just to get things rolling again. Get my equipment dusted off and back in action. Plus apple a is good green. Good for us who can't wait!

I think this says it all...

Sorry not an introduction, it's been a few years since I've logged in. Just thought I'd drop a line and say hi to everyone and that I have not stopped brewing, just on sabbatical 😆

Here's some new stuff!

next...

here we are again...I have left this batch alone since last posting here and all activity has stopped. I have received both fermaids "O" and "K" Does anyone have any tips/tricks to get things re started? I am tossing the idea around of getting a gallon of cider and making a fresh "starter"...

So....how long does this stuff normally take? It's been 7 weeks and fermentation has slowed considerably, it's only at about 50% of the goal.

First ever batch. Don't worry about the headspace, I topped off with Co2 and a few banana slices for nutrient.

So.I.boiled.half.a.banana.for.more.nutrient.and.moved.to.secondary.. [email protected].. Now.before.you.naysayers.say.nay,it.IS.topped.up...with.Co2.. just.until.I.get.marbles.. Oh,and.the.airlock.is.good.too,I.just.used.the.good.whiskey.in.it.. all.I.had..

I used boiled bread yeast, 2pkts for a total of about 42g's

Noticeable fermentation begun, fitted airlock and 62F holding steady :rockin:

62f.....................

I always shake the piss out my primaries during the first few days until I there is NOTICEABLE active fermentation. :u temps down to 64F
