My first TC

[Doug97]

LIDL's Vitafit "not from concentrate" cloudy apple juice - 99p per litre!

Weston's 2 litre glass jars - "hemidemijohns"

The four on the left all have different yeasts in:
Young's cider
Young's champagne
Mauribrew ale
Mauribrew lager

plus 1/2 tsp of wine tannin.


The 6 to the right have other variations, the 1st three have different amounts of tannin, and the last 3 have:
WYeast Malolactic Cultures
WYeast Belgian Lambic Blend
Young's cider yeast with lots of pectinase to see if I can reduce the cloudiness

The two on the lower right was an experiment in fermenting a mixture of LIDL juice and dessert apple pulp (made using a blender). The idea is to extract as much tannin from the apple flesh and skin as possible to render the wine tannin redundant. It doesn't look too appetising though ...

They all look a bit precarious on the bench - don't knock one over when you go to grab the motorbike top box :thumb:

Have you seen Entrapment? It's like that bit with the lasers.

I should add that this isn't just my first TC, it's my first brew of any kind! :pray:

Next I want to try ginger beer - just ordered one of these!
