Most of the others were smaller, bifurcated, or both. This is the one that merited the picture, so don't take this as my average.<br /><br />Bev, thanks. I appreciate the vote of confidence. I'm quite behind on my posting at the moment, but I'll try to do something about passing along the award at some point. <br /><br />Elizabeth, yes, I did at some point. Either last year or the year before. There's really nothing to it - put the spent pomace in a clean jar and top it off with water. You can't cover the pomace with water exactly, since it sort of floats. Cover the mouth of the jar very tightly with twine and several layers of cheese cloth, to keep the flies out, but allow airflow. Put it somewhere dark and coolish. Wait several weeks to a couple of months, depending on temperature. Decant the vinegar. That's it.Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18017959421018964001noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7237633934633144064.post-44584734010987466982010-09-27T22:09:51.688-04:002010-09-27T22:09:51.688-04:00Wow!

I can't remember how that turned out. Can you direct me to your posts about ACV?
