As for the gambrel, we outsourced this work. By the time I get to a roof, I’ve completely had it with ladders and I would never be able to do as good a job as professionals with standing seam tools.
2nd cider batch bottled
We are at 10 gallons for the season. I wish I could say they suffice to our yearly consumption.
Cidre
Hard time taking pictures of the process, we’re at 15 gallons of cider, 5 of which are now laced with the inebriating nectar of the gods :). We followed an extremely simple farm recipe, the cider is good but not great. The 2 gallons with honey tasted best, maple syrup left no particular taste but did make the cider a little stronger. Good stuff!
Every batch labeled with a picture for the story of the tree it came from.
“Old man’s arch”, “Maple ghost moon”, Honey third from the left” are all there.
