Seen them mentioned before, now I'm curious........

Is it even very different from a "normal" him basket ?

Good idea. Does it come up sweet?

Ps the sputnik recipe improves after 24 hours. Hic.


It does come out quite sweet.

I also bought a load of slush machine syrups from Robert Dyas when they were selling them off for 50p each, raspberry, strawberry and mango syrups. They come up sweet but that suits us quite well.

@Mash how well did the flower carry over?


Amazon and Ebay have dried. I am sure a good HBS will stock as well.

I used the old 2oz/gal ratio from my Apple Mosel wine and tuned it from there. It comes through ok I was nervous to go to far cos it can get a bit cats wee smelling. If you really want got to 10-12g. Juniper notes are quiet.

The sputnik really is brilliant for building & testing recipes. This only takes 2 hours.

Sounds nice, I'm not a big gin fan but a lot of family are. Where did you get the elderflower from Mash?



Very early for it where I am. No leaves on the Elder trees yet!

The Sputnick devise will open the door
for all us gin lovers with an Air Still,
can't wait to build and try mine. Hoping
the postman delivers the goodies tomorrow.
