Good news WB - IMO country fruit wines take at least a year to come good. The blackberry is a wonderful gift and so it should be!

It is what it is, and you cant do anything about it

The simple answer IMO is for 5L use a 10L Bucket for 10L use a 15L Bucket for 20L use a 25L Bucket Im sure some wise sage will pop along and dispute this and come up with some .....

Sounds like it has promise as a comedy - Lets face it, we need more comedy and less misery in life

Back from Scotland in my van ( thanks Clint!!!) and now in the Lake District, Its weird here but hey ho! got a few reasonable brews in the jugs

Still in Scotland setting up the new business and enjoying a few beers from the Skye Brewery. SKYE RED IS excellent as are the other brews they make - recommended

Sorry cant advise on that machine, since I use the Panasonic. Pizza dough takes 40 min on that one. Anyway your results look terrific. Beats sodding around making a mess on the kitchen work surface

what make is your machine? I may be able to offer some help

Got mine on ebay David. It was a bit beat up but works fine and Ive been hammering it for years. I have an ebay business and this is the best thing Ive bought for sure. Use my Panasonic 2 to 3 times a week. Right, can I interest you in ........ Ooooops.

I do the same, but wrap dough in film and leave in fridge overnight. In fact I use the machine for bread dough, so tip it out and put in a tin. Pop it into top oven and crank up the main oven and when its risen cook in the main oven. If you have the Panasonic machine you can half the pizza...

Cant beat some anchovies on top

Hi David in Motor City - less is more on a pizza - a bit of anchovy maybe - pineapple NO - tons of **** cheese NO - egg NO I rest my case - but you Yanks Hey!!

Nothing in envelope you will be pleased to know. Carbonation was spot on but head retention poor. Bit of a weird one, since some of my beers with a single malt lace all the way down whilst others dont. Its not something I get worked up about.
