Hi everyone.
Hugh here. New to Brewing.
Step son bought me a Mangrove Jacks Ginger Bear kit a couple of years ago for fathers day, and it pretty much didn't get used after that first batch.
But earlier this year, I decided to try cider from supermarket brand juice. 7 brews later, I've only had to toss a couple (so dry as to be undrinkable) and I've got my self an Apple and Pear cider from the last two batches that I'm happy to share around.
Also have a few gallons of Mead on the go, but these are really slow to finish primary (probs because I didn't use any nutrients)... One of them is in conditioning now and promises to be very nice once it's mellowed out.
Looking forward to learning and discussing the finer points with you all.
Cheers,
Hugh
