VILNIUS · READ FROM THE DIARY · UPDATED DAILY
On the bench.
Nothing on the bench is published right now. When the diary marks a batch as fermenting and public, it appears here with its day count.
LAST ONE OFF THE BENCH · BATCH №95 · PINEAPPLE WINE · STARTED 2025-12-24
Not fermenting, but not finished.
A batch that has stopped bubbling is not done. It sits on the floor going clear, sometimes for a year, and that stretch is part of the record too.
The diary does not yet record which batches are still resting, so nothing is listed here rather than a guess made from an empty cell. Rows not accounted for: 5.
Where these numbers come from.
Not from a content management system. From the same spreadsheet the hydrometer readings get typed into, once a day, automatically.
Every figure on this page comes out of the fermentation diary — start date, starting gravity, and any reading taken since. If it is not written down, it does not appear here.
Day counts are worked out in your browser from the start date, not baked in when the page was built. A page built last month would otherwise be quietly wrong today.
An empty bench is not a broken page. Fermentation runs on its own calendar, and most of that calendar is waiting. When something goes on, its numbers are here the next morning.
Ferment the unexpected.
