[quote="ArmChair"]Mark,

Did I meet you at UBrew for the London Craft Beer Comp last month?


Anyway I would love to try the Apple and mixed berry please[/quote]
Hi, yes that'll be me.

We took a Grainfather to demo, but time went against us because of the judging and couldn't do much more than take it out of the box. Sorry if you'd hoped to see it running.

I saw you guys setting it up, I asked you if you had any free yeast. Had no joy, but did end up with a fancy free grainfather key ring.

I was stewarding the festivals and my table was one of the last tables to finish. Sorry!

Hi Mark,

I'd like to give one a go. Prefer Apple or Blueberry, but any would be good.
Would like to compare with my TC.

Cheers

Hi Mark

I have a preference for the pear or apple, though any would be fine. I've had good results from the MJ yeasts so the kits should be good.

That's great chaps, thanks for the replies and interest.

I'll bring it to an end early next week, so plenty of time for other takers if they want to throw their name in the hat.

I have never tried a cider kit so would be super keen to try one of these.

Thanks for offering this opportunity to us. :)

Thanks Mark, that's brilliant! I was just trying to decide which cider to do, so I'm up for any of them.
