Hey, Thanks Golly,
I had not heard of simmering in Apple juice before. I take it that the acidity in it brings out more of the magic? As for dry storage, what my FOAF has been doing is putting cracker dry ones into a ziplock bag, sucking all the air out and sealing, then storeing the bags in a quart jar with either loose Damp Rid in the bottom of the jar or makeing an envelope out of Tyvek fastened with staples and putting it in the jar. Being still a noobie at this he has had freshies on hand so he has only tried dry ones once or twice. Freshies definately seem to pack more of a punch. He started a Honey jar a few weeks ago. 130 grams wet and pouring off the water every week or so. Heard this is the best way to preserve the original potency.
Any comments or suggestions?
Many thanks to all!
