Bit late foraging this year due to going on holiday for 2 weeks right in the middle of blackberry extravaganza...
But never mind, went down to the bottom of the garden and managed to collect 1kg of berries
Boiled for a little bit in a liter of water and left overnight with 2 Camden tablets.
Mashed them through a very fine sieve in to a DJ and topped off with 2.5l apple juice. Added some nutrients and pectalose and some cml cider yeast and bingo... 4.5l of brewing purple goodness!
OG 1045
From past experience this will end up about 5.5% and should come good in a couple of months.
