    Dried Valencia orange peel?

    Im fairly sure u can dry most orange peel in the oven on a low temp. I should imagine any sweet oranges will give the same result. There are many regions in the world known for exceptional oranges. Perhaps they have thick skin/minimal pith or high oil content.

    BBC to go ahead with over-75s licence fee changes

    I think the BBC is better as a concept than in practice. The main problem I have is that the commercial rights to their programmes are seperate to the rest of the BBC. So all the money they get from selling planet earth etc to other countries and Brit box subscriptions are separate. Surely this...

    I'd be tempted and I'm sure someone will correct me if it's a terrible idea, to use a small amount of cling film. Make it larger than the hole so 5cm by 5cm at a guess. Give it spray of whatever no rinse sanitizer u have place it over the hole and screw the cap over the top to make a tighter...

    Wine kit gone wrong (I think)

    I find even with store bought wine that some just can't be left once opened where some are fine the next day. I have a vacuvin stopper than helps but some just don't keep.

    Wine kit gone wrong (I think)

    Might've just been a rogue bottle that you missed cleaning or sanitizing! Wouldn't worry about 1/2 an already opened bottle.

    How much were the tinned peaches and is it definitely grape juice? I can't find them on their comedy website.

    I may be wrong but u might want to revise your sugar for your PB if it's only got 14l in it it's gonna have a lot of empty space that u might want to fill with CO2.

    Which movie(s) have you watched recently?

    My thoughts exactly! I read up on it cause I just didn't get it. I now understand what he was trying to say and do but I still think as a movie he missed the mark. Think it's more a Hollywood back patting piece than anything else.

    It's dodgy labeling if u ask me! I got caught out with "whole Berry" 'juice drink'!

    I think kelper means the 100% purple grape juice not the purple "grape boost juice drink"

    Looking at your pictures and recipe I think u could get away with dissolving 200g of sugar in a litre of AJ, I'm sure if I'm wrong someone could put you right.

    Sorry I had an impatient toddler climbing on me and I want to reply straight away.

    I don't think you'd increase the abv by adding sugar, I'd imagine it would have the opposite effect because you're adding 1lt of liquid but only 100g ish sugar.

    Quite a few people have used the welschs grape juice in the past so u could try msg them and ask how they got on! If u go back a few pages in this thread there's definitely a few others.

    Like I say it's preference, I'd be tempted to top up with AJ after a few days and buy some soda water/lemonade for topping up when drinking!

    Always try to use 100% juice for your 2.5l per 4.5l then if u want to experiment with another half litre for different flavours and go from there once u have some experience in making and tasting. The second part is just important as you might prefer strong abv, u might prefer "thinner" Wines.
