Nice one thank you

I ferment on the fruit/veg for a good week, sometimes 10 days, before straining and transferring to dj, so it should be fine.

aye pal.....but I put in the yeast first
mind u it is a awesome drink so far. and the bubbles are nicely coming to the top.
even though I drained the bananas etc, there is good sediment on the bottom.

I usually put fruit or veg in my FV with a couple litres boiling water and campden tab and pectolase then leave 24 - 48 hrs then add the yeast n sugar etc and leave until primary fermentation is slowing (a week to ten days usually) then strain off worst of fruit pulp and into dj's to finish.

Here's me wondering how you juice a bannana ;-)

My local polish shop sells bannana juice. Might have to give it a go. Even if I don't like bannana. ;-)

Hello all,
Had to add a little sweetness to each bottle, it was a bit harsh taste.
I think a bit of maturing and it will be nice.
