I had sufficient bottles but, I'm genuinely worried I now don't have sufficient bottles.
Everything went in the bin yesterday, fermenting bin!
Based on conversions of sugar to liquid and eventually, to alcohol by volume, we have around 120 litres. I'm anticipating some evaporation though probably not too much as it's lidded and out of direct light, so moisture will be contained within. Absorption by the lemon rind and elderflowers will happen though also probably not a massive issue, maybe 30% by volume of solids, so I might lose 3-5 litres here. I'm still expecting to be left with around 100-110 litres, and I have 78 litres of bottles!!!
One of our group has just bought 12 x 1 litre bottles and I've told everyone to save pop bottles from the recycling but, it's going to be touch and go.
Boy home brewing is stressful when you increase the volume!!!

A pocket knife is not a weapon in the right hands it’s an essential garden tool.
