Well, if I could have predicted the weak wine I made would explode, I would have put it outside and watch the plastic corks fly!

Only one bottle so far but who knows, I think they might be not to nice! tasted it but it was funny. I hope thats due to being open for a while and going funny!

Saying that, the other cider is 7% and is ok, funny after taste but its due to being fermented too hot. This time around I have made sure the cider is going slower on a lower temperature, its been very active and this time does not smell bad, third time lucky! well, fingers crossed.

This post is just a few pictures or whats happened so far, I will on my next batch do a proper how to. I did start one this time but I have learnt alot since doing my first lot of cider. Cider is hard, well, its not but, if you do not follow the clean, slow, nothing hard and fast rule you will be ok.

So please enjoy my pics and be aware that a rule proof guide is on its way! well, if it works for me its got to be ;-)

I have just bottled my cider, fizzy as fizzy pop, spilt a bit, tasted, oh boy, kick, but very nice and lite. I hope the bottling has not oxidized it as it was not as easy as it looked! Got a couple of how to posts to do yet. Will add more details later.
