I checked it out and there were some interesting posts. But my question is, Why are you not posting more of your results and progress here so we don't have to go to other forums? This one is dedicated entirely to mead and needs your support to continue to grow. Is there something we can improve on here?
Sincerely, Joe
 
The thread was started in October 2003, and I just found the site recently. I can't move a thread from another site to here, so I did what I could. Maybe next time, they'll post here first.

Well... this morning I discovered why people talk about blow tubes... the cyser is bubbling so aggressively (several bubbles a second at times) that it is threatening to blow the water out the top of the S trap... EC-1118 must love either raw apple juice or clover/black locust honey...

The one bad thing is that the entire kitchen smells like apples, so it appears that I am losing serious aroma out of the must during the ferment. Is there any way to stop this?
 
Don't worry, you're not losing any flavor that is necessary for your enjoyment, it's all part of the process. If you're blowing liquid out of the tube that's a different story.

Remember, see the apple, smell the apple, be the apple.

Cheers,

Oskaar
