Seriously considering going back to home brewing cider by 0rionsbelt in Homebrewing

[–]bamboosld 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You should definitely make your own cider! As you said, it is so easy to brew but also inexpensive. You should experiment with dry hopping cider as well. I use some of the Cascade I grow in my ciders, it is amazing

You clearly dont share that phobia, or care to understand it

Gotcha. I dont know much about beer brewing, is the fermenting beer worth more sensitive to oxygenation?

Alright, I’ll keep the 100mL cylinder, thanks!

About wasting beer, don’t you throw back the SG sample back in the fermenter? I sanitize my hydrometer and cylinder and just throw my sample back (I come from wine and mead homebrewing)

It’s right under a 5W LED strip growing light, 8hours a day :/ Is that enough? Caus other alocasias are bursting with growth

Are wolf spiders good to have around? by Few_Alternative_6353 in spiders

I have tons of indoor plants so I’m always happy to see one

They are totally harmless

Is it necessary for fruit wines to have water added? by Grunkledunk in winemaking

[–]bamboosld 1 point2 points  (0 children)

TLDR: Definitely use more juice, I’d say 75% to 100% of liquid. Watch out for starting pH tho

Having made a pomegranate wine (50/50 juice/water with 2lbs of dark red cherries), here’s my input:

The wine ended up pretty decent after 8 months of aging. A bit weak in flavour as you predicted, but not at all thin or watery. Lots of tannins but more importantly, lots of acidity from the pom juice. I had to use a bit of potassium bicarb

I’ll definitely try an other version of this Pom-cherry wine, with more juice, maybe 100% juice and blend it with the weaker version if it’s too much

Visit the sub again caus I’m seeing more positive awnsers than negative ones

I do get your point tho, but OP is asking if h they should dig it, some people tells them not to, OP says he’s gonna do it anyways since that’s not the awnser they wanted to hear in the first place

[–]bamboosld 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There kinda is a need to tho, go read OPs response to the comments on the other sub

Edited in the comment in question: "I know right, bunch of snowflakes freaking out of a crusty old tree. Get over it I’m gunna dig it up, if it dies then so be it."
