Welcome to WMT. Stick around and share your experiences. It’s how we all learn. I’ve had quick ferments but wouldn’t have considered that it finished!

How would you make your own cocoa extract?

Whew… with my physique I’m safe!

It is not different in wine making… yeast need oxygen so aerate the must during the first third of fermentation, while the yeast are reproducing. I have had fermentations finish in four days and 40 days! Are you providing extra nutrients? What was your initial pH. Rhubarb can be very acidic.

Like putting a chainsaw chain on backwards. I think they are rough in one direction but smooth in the other.

Using grape vines as a landscape feature… I like it. The entrance into my outdoor cellar is in a 7’tall rock wall below my deck. I was thinking of planting a vine on each side of the door and letting it cover the rock wall. Another one (or two) to climb the deck support post and spread along...

Run alternating grounded wires and hot wires. When they try to squeeze through they touch both for a really big surprise 🫨

Do you have a name for that process that I can Google? I’d love to do something similar.

I have had this. As Ibglowin said, I soaked it up with a paper towel, wiped the neck with a towel soaked in K- meta, dosed the wine with K- meta, then topped up and misted K-meta in the neck of the carboy and sealed it up. I let the wine age for another three months and It did not come back.

You need some BIG A$$ tomato cages. Maybe half of a hog panel rolled into a cylinder.

5 gallons on the compost pile. It was truly vile!

Looks great. But what’s with all the dirt 😉

I once made 5 gallons of sauerkraut in a well washed A&W root beer syrup bucket…. I never would have guessed root beer flavor could overpower sauerkraut, but it did 🤢

All of the recipes in the book call for 2-4oz dried “trimmings” per gallon. I imagine using the good stuff would make a much more potent wine.

Welcome to WMT. There is an incredible amount of experience here. Ask and your questions will be answered.

I looked and I was mistaken. All the recipes include the MJ in the primary fermentation.

I have a book with several MJ wine recipes. I believe the marijuana is added post-fermentation. THC is alcohol soluble.

Even when young I never liked pot in social settings. It was ok with a few close friends and some good music but I never liked at as a party favor… alcohol was always my social lubricant of choice. Oddly, I like a little booze buzz now but actually hate getting drunk.

Without sound how can you tell they are British idiots? Idiots are universal.
