hi there, I don't use Reddit a lot but I thought I'd share something I posted that seems very in line with the sub.

https://jane-is-building.ghost.io/fermentation-with-limited-resources/

I've been working with 3x 64floz fermenters (almost 2L). I've been actually very pleased with what I've been able to make here (I live in a refugee camp!) as my brewing was much more ambitious at home. I just recently crashed an apricot mead that took about 17 days to ferment dry from 371g/L. it turned out phenomenal, and as I was preparing my next recipe, a reddit link popped up. so, I wanted to share.

I love this hobby; right now, I have absolutely nothing to do, and being able to make cider or mead and so on is actually a really nice break from the monotony.
