The gloss of my brewing virginity has been taken

OK, so I have never brewed before.

I woke up this morning all excited to go out and buy some equipment to brew some cider...only to find that my bike has been STOLEN from my house....arggghh

After spending most of the day trying to get it back, which obviously is never going to work, I still managed to start off my first 2 gallons of cider.

I will name the cider after my bike...GT Avalanche

...let's hope it tastes good!!

Good luck to you...and welcome to the obsession!!

Sorry to hear about the wheels knickery....

If you are a cider fan, I would recommend a batch of Ed Wort's Apfelwein. Many of us around here have had good luck with this simple but delicious recipe.

Enjoy!

Sorry to hear about your bike. I hate thieves and think there should be a death penalty for pigs that think they can steal what I work so hard to get.

Congratulations on your first foray into making adult beverages!
