A Fermentation Factory

On any given day Gael Glen Farm is a verifiable fermentation factory.  Seriously, bacteria and yeast are our friends.  Today we have twelve things on the go on the fermentation front.

Sourdough starter



Whole wheat sourdough bread



Sourdough-buttermilk English muffins



Creme fraiche



Beer (a dry hopped sour, in collaboration with Small Pony Barrel Works)


Beer (a pseudo Kreik lambic, pseudo because you can't call something a Lambic unless it is made in Belgium)


Beer (an American standard lager and an experimental lager with Nowegian Kveik yeast).


Kombucha (mango pineapple black tea)


Kombucha (black tea, cranberry black tea, and mint green tea)


Meanwhile, our chicks are not fermenting in any way but they are still really tiny and cute.  Chick photo shoot!  Aww....






My apologies for the dirty fingernails in the last photo.  We had just finished re-potting 100 seedlings. Our living room is a greenhouse once more.
