Hi! I've just registered, 'cos I have an interest in (re) starting home brewing operations various, after a long time off. I started with C J J Berry's "First Steps in Winemaking", and have progressed but little, although more recently, with enthusiasm. I am still not very technical, and numbers (as well as what I produce) make my head go 'round.
Previous attempts were at "country wine", and beer from kits with rudimentary add-ons, plus making illegal alcoholic beverages, about which I ought say no more..
Latest is "prison hooch" and similar nontechnical "brew in a bottle" substances of dubious taste but certain efficiency, country wine, beer from kits (with an ambition to progress), non-malt "beer", and cider.
I have various buckets, bottles, containers, demijohns and associated equipment, a home-made apple scratter, a press, and hope to have an insulated brew shed before too long, although it will only be 7'x5'.
So, I go in search of the cider forum!
