Greetings, to your holidays, to your gardens when grilling or to the events which just go with summer time, hi! August is here and our "summer glasses" are getting rather half full than half empty, we have had our share this year. Those of you who has met us at some of the events in the last month and half know, that we have succeeded in setting up our draft system with water cooling. We have therefore on draft our ciders, especially "summer cider/letnička", which flavoured by variety of enchanting ingredients, for example ginger, rosemar or melisa. We have also fermented for you probiotic non alcoholic beverage "honey sparkle/medovou perlivku". Honey, mixed sometimes with bit of sugar, was dissolved in water, fermented by kefir whey and before bottling and kegging flavour was added. Recently very popular is rooibos mix "sun in the bushes/slunce v buši", which is flavoured by mix of herbs and spices like orange peel, raspberries, marigold (Calendula officinalis) and other, which is very natural and refreshing. Those of you who are closer to the nature have surely noticed, that the fruits this year are maturing early. In Czech Republic the season of myrobalan (Prunus cerasifera) is peaking and in Prague you can find already matured elder berries and summer apples. We recommend myrobalan and elder berries for making syrups as we plan to do. Concerning other fermentation activities, we are ready to restart our kombucha fermentations.
There are also preparations on the way concerning the autumn 2024 season of harvesting and transformation of apples, you can find more about it here. This year we plan to harvest in turns of ten days with two weeks periods in between.

Before saying our farewells, here are some recommendations for events where we can meet next month or so!
