Yes actually I think there has been a slight activity because the vodka was equal on the first bubble on each side of airlock and it raised a little on one side. Back down again and raised again but I just havnt seen it happen. Is there a side it should be higher on? Like the first bubbler part...
Oh no please don’t tell me that. I have chaetophobia 🤣although we do have a dog and other fur animals but it is a big challenge for me. I’m completely paranoid about hairs getting into things 🐶 I’m more concerned that I have no activity in my demi John right now x
Well it’s in the demi and air lock on but seems dead as a door nail. I will try a picture upload. Last picture didn’t work, it was of my straining contraption but our wifi is stuck in the dark ages.
If there’s no bubbles is it a duff or do you have to wait some time? 😑🫣🥱
BigDave I made a contraption…hung from under a stool and had to cable tie a wooden thing to the stool with bag on it.
Then when I went to cut off ties (instead of waiting for help) the cable tie pinged off and went straight into bucket 😫well we shall see what becomes of it now 🙄
Yes when I’ve sanitised them it is tricky to get the liquid out.
Ok so 1/4 at each racking.
I’m not really following what you mean with running alcohol ABV up but I’ll google 😅kind regards
Hi thank you for your response. I think I have doublers.
I have a large bag now which I didn’t when I started it. So I’m going to have to tip all the liquid and mulch into a big pan then I’ll tip it back into the (cleaned out) bucket with a straining bag in it and then figure out how I’m going...
Hi thanks. My airlocks are cheap. I don’t think there’s a fill line but I’ll check. I’ll splash out on better equipment if this all works out well.
And yes I’m going to do that with the bag next time! I have a bag now 🙃
Hi all
Thank you for your help in me getting started with my apple wine.
I’ve been stirring once/twice a day, and the activity is coming to a stop so now it’s time to strain and put into demi-John.
I want to be organised although I could potentially have another disaster given I have to...
