greetings

Post by matthew »

Hi there...

Been lurking for a few years actually, all the good conversations and info here got my absinthe project off the ground. I'm still working on that and will no doubt have some questions for the experts, and the more threads I read the more I want to get into actually fermenting, so I look forward to talking with you all about that as well.

Anyway, I look forward to continuing to learn here...

Matt

Thanks Plonker...

I've been buying my herbs online though I would like to start growing them. My friend grows her own and adds them to the alcohol w/o drying them, insists it makes a better product. I still prefer mine though. :)

I do grow other Artemesias in pots though - they seem to like about 50% pumice/lava in the soil for really good drainage...
