Went to my partners work for lunch and the baby sat opposite me in a big chair and was so happy and smiley with his cheese sandwich. In the sunshine ☀

Went to see my fellas Nan. I never had a Nan growing up so get along with her quite well. I wind her up and she loves me. She calls me a cheeky so and so 🤣

the weather ☀ and doing my washing and having it on the line!

Apples, (or apple scraps) sugar and water.. chop the apples let them brown (air brown, so make sure you get good ones preferable windfalls or organic)
Add sugar to water around 1 tablespoon to every cup of water doesn't have to be measured perfectly. if you have any apple cider vinegar with the mother already at home put some into the container it will work faster, if not it doesn't matter it will make its own mother.

cover with muslin, so fruit flies don't get in, stir every day until sugar has gone, sieve all the lumps out (but not too fine as you need the mother with it) and bottle up leave it until its really vinegary.

I can't give you measurements as I do huge 50l batches and just wing it.. but plenty of info online.

The other thing is unimportant- to me not to them though- but I've known them for years as they were just as annoying on another forum we were on. Just imagine someone on a very high horse looking down their very long nose at you talking in a sneering manner but 100 times more pompous, That's them, that is.. 🤣

Not been well today so me and my son got on the couch and watched Toy Story 2. He enjoyed it and laughed whenever Slinky was on

my son has started getting going ‘HUH!?’ When he does something he doesn’t understand and it’s well funny 🤣

I had a lie down with the baby while he napped. He woke up and went ‘Mum!’ And gave me a hug 🥰

Ooh thank you, what do you use to sieve, just a standard metal one?

No metal is used in making vinegar it is not good for the vinegar or the metal so make sure you always use a plastic or wooden spoon, and a plastic or cloth sieve. I use cheesecloth or muslin, if you use a huge bucket as I do, make sure it's food grade. most people make smaller batches in large glass jars


just remembered an important step. when the fermenting stage is done, scoop out all the lumps then you leave it for a longer time and then sieve it, you don't want it too clear as you want the mother with it.

But you are best off watching a few videos.. in case I missed anything
