mmm.... depends on the type of mushroom, I guess... in the late 60's and early 70's we made some pretty fair mushroom tea... don't remember much about what happened after I drank the tea, but it must have been pretty good. HB

Ryan... like some of the others, I am wondering what your starting pH was, and what it is now... Also, are you saying you used lemon concentrate from the bottle? Wouldn't that be full of preservatives? HB

Don't do this... it will confuse the hell out of your yeast and they'll never be able to make your wine. HB

Hmmm... maybe boil the 'shrooms in a small amount of water and add strained water to your wine must? Simpler just to put them on a pizza... so I hear... heard. HB

Dave... I think it would me great if you posted this quick Mozzarella recipe in the General Chit-Chat section of the forum. Pizza bread goes great with some wines and my wife would sure like to have that recipe. Thanks for the heads-up on the cheesemaking... might be just the ticket for some of...

MV... come visit me in my cabin on the hill and I'll let you ask my neighbors up in the holler what they grow... only I'll be standing a good 20 feet from you when you ask... :):):) By the way... here's to your 300th post... :b HB

Wild Turkey (101 proof) and Fightin' Cock (103 proof) are both good for cleaning windshields... never found much other use for them... and while I'm bashing... Southern Confort makes for a good septic tank cleanser. HB

Crown Royal... now there's a sipping whiskey! HB

Good one! Bwaaaahaaaahaaaa! HB

Thanks Tooth... having a blast so far. My first batch of apple juice wine is ready to be racked and the FedEx man brought me a Blackberry Merlot kit today. My wife and I plan to keep on making wines and we plan to get set up with the beer-making equipment come springtime. I should be getting...

Hey... it works for me! :b HB

I know I'm in the minority, but I just can't get myself to like the taste of Jack Daniels.

4 quarts eggnog 1 pint white lightning 1 tsp nutmeg 1/2 tsp cinnamon Yea boy...... HB

You mean you guys don't "brown bag?" HB

Troy, When I tried to send you a Private Message I got a message saying that you could not receive Private Messages... so I went into your Profile and left you a Personal Message. When you told me you sent me a Private Message, I looked and it wasn't there... so I went into your Profile again...

How long did it take you to empty those bottles... a week? :d HB

Tooth... I am sure we could find a restuarant that serves wine if we drove 60 miles or so to either Charleston or Huntington. Where we live it is a struggle to find a restuarant that will serve beer, much less wine. Every time a decent restuarant opens within 20 miles of here, they have to...

Thanks Tooth, I am going to continue pursuing the winemaking end of homebrewing through the winter, but I think I am going to take a long hard look at making and kegging beer next spring. My wife and I hardly ever go out to eat anywhere we can't get a pitcher of beer. Thanks for your input. HB

OP... I use live traps... I can not tell you how many animals I have relocated down to the boat docks. I don't know what you have there, but if it is hungry it will squeeze into the trap. I have two sizes... the largest is about 3 feet long and about one foot square. A pretty large animal can...

Poison gas... lots and lots of it... or maybe a mouse trap? HB
