My cider saga has continued into it's 9th month, and things are looking up! I poured the juice into a clean demi-john last week and added a bit more yeast (and sugar), the juice still tastes pretty good. Returned home from another weekends adventuring to find a steady stream of bubbles coming through the airlock! woooooo-hooooo! And remember: "Farmers preferred a slow fermentation because it gave a better product." This is going to be the most epic and strange cider ever produced.

| That's really interesting. Let us know how it goes. How long has it been stopped for? It must be months mustn't it? |

We pressed it at the end of october but the demijohn i took home with me never really got going at all, i thought at the time it was because my house would vary from either being boiling or freezing, when it was hot loads of froth would pour out the top, then when it got cold things just seized up. Now its a much more regular temperature things seem to be happening.

I filtered off the final cider last week, its really clear, very bitter, but quite drinkable, although i haven't drank it in a large enough quantity to give a verdict as to whether it may be fatal or not, but i will keep you all posted (or if you never hear from me again, you'll know whats happened)
