Hey everyone, time for the monthly post.

What's everyone been up to? Any special spring/easter/your local flavour of holiday brews?

Cheers!

I still need to rack off another batch that's taking up a good chunk of my brewing corner. But, the next batch planned for hopefully this weekend is a hoochy melomel concoction involving some frozen strawberries that need cleared out and compatible fruity-flavored black tea. (Kobbs Sörgårdste) It may also get some blackcurrant drink concentrate if that seems like a good idea flavorwise.

I was wanting to get a test batch of some Thai black rice and blueberry Franken-doburoku going, but the pressure cooker I've been using for glutinous rice has decided not to seal properly even after a gasket replacement. I don't feel like messing around with steaming wholegrain rice on the stove, so that'll just have to wait until I can troubleshoot and fix that/snag a second cooker. May need to wait for next month on that one.
