Im In

I just got 2 kinds a few weeks ago, I am doing mine outside in 1 gallon pots to start but instructions recommended starting them inside at about 70 degress. The say they can handle a slight frost if recently cut though. Mine have their little shoots starting to come up. I will transplant once...

Got it, Thanks for the fast reply!

I see no sticker on anything except the one on the top which shows everything as 220v. How would I tell aside from that?

I just got my temp controller today and they sent me a darn 220v even though the aution said 110v for US. See how long it takes qualitylink2000 to reply

ok i will wait and see, seems to have pick up its pace. just hoping it doesnt go so much i lose the sugars and blueberry flavor. Thanks

Make the bubbling stop!!! :D Any ideas/feedback

So I have moved my cider to the secondary and added 1/2 gallon cider, 1 can apple juice concentrate and 6.5 lb of blueberries, 5 campden tablets and 1 1/4 t potassium sorbate (as directed) however, fermentation seems to have picked back up again (1 bubble every 3 sec) Is this normal and how long...

So i made a batch of this and have some questions, I have went through 50+ different posts and cant seem to find my answer. I want to back sweeten so i plan to use campden and sorbate. my question is can i use Coopers Carbonation drops to bottle carb after this? If so how long does each step...

good question, that is basically what im trying to understand and why i dont know if i should kill yeast first or not. im really after a sweeter strong blueberry flavor and not sure if whats left of the yeast is enough to ferment what i add and if it will remove the flavors like the primary does

Maybe i will give that a shot, just wasnt sure if i need some yeast or not when adding on fruit in secondary. just want to get some drinkable stuff before the live and learn the hard way comes into effect :D

Thanks, i see no real mention of him killing off the yeast first. I would imagine the slight cold crash mentioned would have only been short term till it warmed again. wouldnt there still be enough yeast to consume the sugars in the secondary?

So I have started a blueberry cider and plan on raking into secondary on 7.5 lb frozen blueberries. I want to get a sweeter more flavorful cider and want to know if i should kill off the yeast prior to raking to secondary? if not how long should i wait before killing off and how long should i...

Thanks, any thought on the DME and Honey Malt. I think at some point I need to quit thinking about it and just do it :eek:

What about maybe adding half lb light DME and 4oz Honey Malt :confused:
