Well, it stop working a while ago and I never got out to find blueberries to add to it. It should have been bottled by now, but I still have to filter out the chunks and let it settle in a big jug first. The alcohol level is great, I should used the hydrometer to check it.
I do have an excuse though. I got some beer brewing from barley I malted myself and hops from this season. My first attempt since buying a 5 gal kit last year. It smells like it will be a nice IPA when it is ready to bottle.
Nice! I've been growing my own hops since about 2005 and I thought about trying to grow and malt barley but read that it required more land than I had to grow enough to be useful. I don't know.
