I don't think I've ever seen anyone who said they have done this, but perhaps try a lager yeast? Maybe a 1 gallon batch and see what happens.

Does the shed have electric? If so, you can easily keep it slightly warmer with a thermostat controlled small heater, like an incandescent bulb or reptile bulb. Better yet, a tub of water and an aquarium heater.

Sounds great! This thread is a running total of every participants production, so 349 + 24 = 373

Making fuel in one gallon batches? And getting your techniques / information from home brewers? Go ahead, pull the other one...

HB cider.

Not a winemaker but as with most other fermentation, "patience grasshopper". There are many slower, less vigorous processes going on that need time to give you a finished product. Yes, you are bulk aging, but that is what you need. You would never buy a red wine that was three months old. And...

Hb cider after the heavier stuff... No cats tonight. Football angst doesn't agree with them.

2nd and 28 against the Bears? Can you say "easy first down" boys and girls? And I swear, the quad and the Backwoods Bastard were the same beer. The bastard perhaps just a bit more carbonation.

Ready for some (dvr'd) football...

Belgian quad shed in journeyman rye barrels at Horse Thief Hollow. Really nice, chewy

Can I get this dry or am I going to have to do a starter?

Nigel and "the king bone". Like a bulldog on a bone.

Another for me. Lobster(!) for Morris.

HB cider with a shot of cherry syrup. Me likey. Morris still prefers a tuna treat.

More cider while Nigel stays alert for cheese falling out of my pockets. Need some better lighting on the lawn chair.

Cherry flavor? Use it to replace the vermouth in a manhattan. HB cider with Morris...

Really can't make this post without an audio file...

Sharing more cider with Milo. He's normally mommy's cat. Hasn't been up the stairs in at least 6 months.

Home with some HB cider. And Morris dropping by to say Happy Birthday. And mention how low we are on tuna treats.
