OMG that's such a great idea. Just spent £30 odd on a spunding kit. Doh!

I'm 49 but got offered a vaccine last week (when I was still 48) so went for it. Was on the shielding list so maybe that's why. My OH is 7 years older and with the same doctor and he hasn't had an offer yet. AZ. Felt terrible for approx 24 hours after, temperature, headache, sore arm, and the...

Why not, count me in!

My ex husband?

Crikey what a mission! Thanks so much for the delivery.

I'm down south and would love one if possible. You can never have too many cornies, right! I'll send you a PM.

I pitched a lager onto a small amount (200mls, screwed up, thought I had more) of old slurry on Monday and it took until yesterday to kick off. I was panicking so upped the temperature to 15C and that seemed to do the trick. It's going mental now. Not sure whether to go back down to 12 or just...

Yeah I would cut back fairly aggressively but leaving a few leaves so that it can still grow/photosynthesise. Often I've had to cut back again during the winter as they kept growing so well in my bathroom!

Not sure if this has been mentioned, but chili plants keep really well through the winter if you have space. They start to die at 12 degrees C or below, but if you can keep them above that they are a perennial. Gives you a massive headstart next year if you can keep them. I generally cut them...

Done

My only issue with that Jamie recipe is that the vinegar isn't diluted so it could well end up being far too sharp. Generally a 50.50 mix of water and vinegar is plenty strong enough. I don't boil when I pickle in the vac packer and there's no spoilage as long as everything is covered with the...

I also do a lot of pickling with the vacuum packer. I guess lots of people have them these days. Super fast pickles!

I reckon you could use a bit of calcium chloride to keep them crisp. Luckily a thing which most of us would have kicking around.

I'm a big fan of Mexican style pickled chillies with veg, like this one: Taqueria Style Pickled Jalapenos and Carrots | Mexican Please My hint would be, don't use a metal lid because it will eat through it!

Haha I love it, it's like a being from another universe. From dried?! 😱

You are the only person I know of who can be this lucid at 4.01 am! kudos

Or use the wife's GHD's (hair straighteners) while she's not looking.

I did make a starter from it, but even that was done in less than 24 hours. That stuff is a beast! I haven't tried the beer properly yet, it's conditioning in the cornie. The taste I had when kegging it had a distinct banana-y flavour but I'm hoping that will condition out. And yes, it did seem...
