An absolutely GORGEOUS Minnesota November weekend brought several beverage-related projects into being — look for updates as they progress!
- A brewing batch of Kombucha tea (that’s right, we now have our very own mushroom courtesy of some friends of ours — what a great tradition! Let’s just hope we can keep it alive long enough to produce a couple of ‘back-ups’)
- A brewing batch of home made ginger beer (a rather explosive project, as it turns out - more to come on that soon!)
- A batch of Christmas lager …
- And Jake’s in the process of bottling some wine made from grapes grown in his parent’s backyard in Northern Minnesota!

on November 19, 2009 at 12:34 pm it’s doing AMAZING! In fact I think it is ready for harvest! Even though most *directions* say to leave it 2 weeks (in 70 degree climate, and I’m CERTAIN it’s been far less than that atop our kitchen cupboards), and it’s only been 10 days! I think I got a nice healthy bucha mama from our friends. Do I dare take the baby away from it’s mama? Do I dare taste the beverage left over!? More to come soon!! :-)
