Made my first batch of Apfelwein

[injendsm]

I was going to wait until tomorrow to do this but SWMBO (still not sure what the hell that means other than significant other, lol) wanted to help do it tonight so we got everything ready and made it. It didn't take long to make and I've got it sitting in our spare bedroom in total darkness with the fan on full blast. I can't wait to drink this in a couple of months. Here are a few pictures we took:

Everything ready to go.

Me pouring in the first half gallon of apple juice.

I guess the dog wants to try some.

My wife pouring in the yeast.

The finished product shortly before I put it in the extra room.

I'll update this thread every now and then with updated pictures of the Apfelwein as it ferments.

Looks great. BTW, there was a thread yesterday on what SWMBO means. You should skip any posts by hotstack though...

Thanks. I finally know what SWMBO means! LOL.

You will be wanting to kick EdWort in the nads before you know it. I love that stuff, but trust me, it will hurt you. You will go to bed with a "new friend" and wake up to find it has tied you to the bed and stolen your wallet. That stuff is fierce.
