Susan W Posted June 16, 2013 Share Posted June 16, 2013 I use the one for android. I think there was only one choice for my phone. Not positive but I think iphone had 2 choices? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Susan W Posted June 16, 2013 Share Posted June 16, 2013 I dont remember paying anything for mine but that means nothing. I just looked and there are pink red and blue ones now. Mine is the old community reader and of course now I want to see what the difference is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nadia B Posted June 16, 2013 Share Posted June 16, 2013 I can't see if they are grainy or not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Susan W Posted June 16, 2013 Share Posted June 16, 2013 Nadia they arent so much grainy as icy. Its not the texture but the sour flavor. I used a pretty much plain booch. Maybe it would be better with some fruit flavor. Olivia loved it. It made her tongue double in size...slurp slurp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lizzard77 Posted June 16, 2013 Share Posted June 16, 2013 My pups loves booch, so much so that when she hears the pop hiss of the swingtop bottle opening, she comes running! Sorry the pops didn't work out Susan! I am sure you will get it down. My friend makes a delicious pineapple cilantro tea that I use for flavoring, perhaps that would be tasty in conjunction with Derval's popsicle recipe. If anyone is interested in some really great teas, mail order: www.butikiteas.com She does a lot of research and tasting to bring really unique flavors like potato pancake and applesauce (actually delicious) and banana walnut. She has an extensive collection! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
percypat Posted June 16, 2013 Share Posted June 16, 2013 A few little chunks of frozen mango and 5 days of 2nd fermentation = We had to open and quickly the close the lid a few times as the froth just kept coming. And it doesn't even taste like mango! But it's mega fizzy. Think the lack of mango taste probably comes from not enough mango, along with the fact that I used frozen. That's fine. I'll take the fizz as a big win 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lizzard77 Posted June 16, 2013 Share Posted June 16, 2013 I usually test my bottles every couple of days for fizz. When they reach the super explody point I will move them to the fridge. Cooling them down will help them not geyser up when opening but will retain fizziness. I collected about 3 cups of mulberries from my tree out back so I'm going to do mulberry lime and mulberry lavender today when I bottle. I want to make jam with the mulberries but it's hard when I can't actually taste it.....W30 problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
percypat Posted June 16, 2013 Share Posted June 16, 2013 I am total n00b brewer so it's all new and scary! I've been testing my bottles by pushing on the lids everyday - until today I could push them down easily, realised tonight that the mango one was hard. Gave the remaining bottles a wee check and they're not at the explodey point so will let them go a bit longer. Ooh, it's so much fun. If I couldn't taste, let alone eat, the jam I don't know if I'd bother making it ... What else can you do with them apart from flavouring booch?

megmac Posted June 16, 2013 Share Posted June 16, 2013 Okay, Scooby has been festering for 3 days, and I'm not seeing any change. He's a little bigger, but still a jellyfish. Is this normal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moluv Posted June 16, 2013 Share Posted June 16, 2013 Oh yes meg. I know what you mean. I always grab my old lady reading glasses before opening tapatalk. Do you use tapatalk? Makes the site very phone friendly. You can't "like" posts from it though. Or edit a post. Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx You can "like" a post from tapatalk (well, I have tapatalk 2) by clicking on the post to bring up the toolbar at bottom and then click on the icon that looks like a compass pointing northeast. That opens tapatalk in what it looks like on your phones browser and then you can like and click back to get back to the forum. The editing is (I hope) a temporary glitch.

Susan W Posted June 16, 2013 Share Posted June 16, 2013 Sophie I noticed when I use frozen mango, it didnt taste mango. When I used a fresh very ripe one, it was amazing. I did fill the bottle about 15% with the mango which I had smashed into a puree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Susan W Posted June 16, 2013 Share Posted June 16, 2013 Mo, do you have an iphone? When I go to playstore, I only see the tapatalk community reader which I have and tapatalk that comes in colors (which the screenshot of looks very annoying) but they are all 2.99. I dont see anything that is 3.99. Maybe Tapatalk 2 is just for iphone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Susan W Posted June 16, 2013 Share Posted June 16, 2013 I couldnt resist trying my hibiscus and dried ginger that KK sent me so I took a plain bottle from the fridge and put 1/2 tsp of each. Oh my..hibiscus is amazing. Also..maybe because of third ferment overnight, fizzy like Mt. St Helens. The color after just 24 hours is amazing. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Susan W Posted June 16, 2013 Share Posted June 16, 2013 Lol Derval. When people ask me what it stands for, they shudder when I get to the bacteria part. Foolish, foolish people. Then I have to roll into my good bacteria elevator speech. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
