I've got one gallon jugs but I think we are going to flavor and bottle, add a little bit of priming sugar to the bottles for bottle carbonation. First flavoring attempt will be cranberry apple. Speaking of kombucha, I didn't drink any today (yet) 😂

Well we got some natural flavorings to try. I know from past experience these are strong. Probably take a eyedropper drop or two per 16 ounce bottle.

Priming sugar I recall is one ounce per gallon mixed in before bottling. Mixing in before bottling is the best way to bottle. That way it doesn't matter how large or small the bottles are

May His favor be upon you
And a thousand generations
And your family and your children
And their children, and their children
May His presence go before you
And behind you, and beside you
All around you, and within you
He is with you, he is with you
In the morning, in the evening
In your coming, and your going
In your weeping, and rejoicing
He is for you, he is for you​

Don't need to dry them for chickens. Pop em in the freezer overnight and give them to the little velocirapters next day (beetles wont escape). My chickens loved them. Occasionally some shiny beetle shell showed up in the eggshell

i guesstimate a garbage can will not fit in our freezer. i haven't tried that yet and since Mom has seemed to put a ton of stuff in there sometimes maybe there's a wormhole or space-time warp going on that she can get that all to fit. still, i suspect she may protest me putting JB's in there...
