I’ve never tried my own home brew before and I’ve been sitting on two kits for years now (got them sitting the pandemic but never found the time) and I wanted to try to start something
The original juice and hops are probably toast by now so I’ll have to purchase some new, but I’ve got two of those jugs and the other bits that come with them.
I also have a small orchard in my back yard and wanted to try to use the thousands of plums in get every year to make some kind of lambic ale.
Any advice is appreciated!
So I shouldn’t trust those pop-top glass bottles?
Looks like the juice wasn’t concentrated enough, so maybe I’ll juice some plums and cherries this year
The pop top ones are great and I love them but it’s easy to mess something up and make them pretty dangerous.
If you have a hygrometer you can measure the sugar content of your brew which takes out the guess work, get one of them before glass bottling. Hygrometers are like $10 and well worth having.
Plum and cherry wine sounds divine. Good luck!
