sober brewing

While this may not sound like a good idea to you, it is keeping me busy during the week while the kiddos are not here with me. i have taken up a new hobby and just because im not drinking for a while does not mean its a bad idea. i started a round of hard cider which is the easiest of all drinks to make and if all goes well im gonna do a peach wine and then on to a wheat beer which is really what i am looking forward to but since im kinda learning on the go it is best to start off with the easy stuff.   so far im in the first fermentation stage and it is going better than i thought it would. should be able to transfer into the second stage this weekend and to a rack in 2 more weeks then its a little sit and wait for another six to eight weeks. it amazed me to see how quick it fermented. any other ideas on wine are welcome as im not stuck on the peach theme
