Lemon wine and orange wine
(lemmy.world)
Orange on the left, lemon on the right. Lemon looks darker since I did an oopsie with the water level and had to boil for a while. Orange wine is at an fg of 1.006 and tastes very sweet, don’t even have to back sweeten it. It tastes different but I like it! 18% abv. Lemon wine has a very bitter back end. I’ll be screwing around with back sweetening it to see how it is. The lemon wine ended at 1.032 or 10% abv. Girlfriend likes both so I’m not sure which I’ll be turning into brandy but either way, citrus test was a success!
I am now going through Spain and it is orange season, you wouldn't believe how much oranges accidentally fell in my bags...
How is the trip by the way? I imagine it’s a blast. But also, definitely take some home with you, the orange wine isn’t as good as the watermelon I made a while back, but it’s definitely up there lol
Yeah for cycling the weather is amazing, for camping outside not so much... Amazing views that change all the time, historical cities but darn I use my card too often, I hope that it will get better when I can stay outside.
Right now there are high winds and I just can't sleep because it's too loud.
Oh I’m a huge fan of camping outside, even in the winters with freezing temperatures and snow out. But yeah wind sounds awful lol
