steelhawk Report post Posted October 24, 2011 The last two items I used my Vinegaroon on needed to be done more than once to get it all black. It is about a year old and was my first attempt at making the stuff. If it does get weak, what is the best way to get it back to normal? Also, what color should a good batch be?

mlapaglia Report post Posted October 25, 2011 Mine is a very dark Tea color. I made up a gallon and put most of it in beer bottles and then topped them off with CO2 and capped them. Hopefully it will help them keep. It helps to have old beer making tools around when it comes to storing liquids. Michael Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Denster Report post Posted October 25, 2011 I used some today that is over two years old. The only difference I noted is that it has lost a lot of it's smell. Mine is a very deep burgundy color. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
