Elderflower must

This evening it was time to move the Elderflower must from the mash tun to the fermentation vessel. That sounds fancy but it just a case of straining the must [Elderflower flowers, lemon, sugar and water] through a sieve into a big bowl then pouring the liquid into a demi-john. I took the specific gravity and recorded it in my little book. Then I put some water in the air lock and fitted the air-lock to the demi-john. I put the demi-johns aside whilst I cleaned up. When I can back to the DJs the air-locks had started to bubble.
