I use a flame tamer, because polenta scraping is not my idea of a fun
evening.

Heh. A friend of mine brewed up some kind of booze out of plums
recently. He was silly enough to leave the bottles inside the house.
He's also the type who thought twice as much sugar in the bottles was a
great idea. You can guess the rest, I'm sure.

Yep. All over the ceiling. Made a hell of a mess

I've bottled a batch of Ginger Beer on the weekend, usually the g/f
handles the Ginger Beer duties but I wanted to see what mine will come
out like.

While I keep some home brewed bottled beers in the kitchen - the ginger
beer went straight into the shed, due to it's unpredictably explosive
nature! It's apple and pear season here now, so I'll be busy juicing
this week for the approx. 60 Litres I'll need for the Perry and Cider.
Can't wait until it's ready...
