I used regular lemons, and not enough ginger on the others. The lemon was way tart, and I clearly needed to add more ginger. They are getting better now though :)Brianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08927164838699702741noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6663889137960390865.post-38072651063876430572011-02-12T14:57:06.806-05:002011-02-12T14:57:06.806-05:00Sometimes pieces of the culture get stuck in there...Sometimes pieces of the culture get stuck in there - they love oxygen and since the spigot is a source of that, they grow right in there and block it up - you might try sticking a toothpick in there to see if you can dislodge any pieces.<br /><br />How did these flavors turn out?

I like the flavors you used, I forgot all about ginger when I bottled my first batch yesterday. My spigot is also slow, I took it apart and it was all clogged up.
