Well Sunday, saw a few big bags of Banana going for 40-60p in Tescos. Thought I'll have some of that. 7lb of Nanas for ã1. Thought would do in the week. Got home had a little row with misses was left with just over 4lb of Bananas and a banana covered desk. As bananas were slightly mushed had to bottle a blackberry/cherry that had cleared.
Used skin on 3lb and chopped the rest, simmered for an hour while bottling the blackberry/cherry.
1kg (as all I had), might add 500g later to taste, 250g sultanas blended simmered and strained into dj onto sugar with a strong (2 bag) cup of tea. Strained bananas through cheese cloth into dj. When cooler added yeast, juice of lemon (didn't have an orange only satumas, so left out) and 1 heaped tsp of citric acid, nutrient and 1 tsp of Amalyse for starch haze.
Fermenting away fine.
S.G reading was off, was reading plus 1200.
Was a bit late posting as only just managed to get the rest of the banana off the monitor :lol:
