Anyuta73, then I'll show mine

Ladies, HOW does an apple tree smell with gooseberries ... It's fantastic - it’s just a day, the smell is the same as a slightly fermented peach, it’s a miracle ... And the apple tree has a dark burgundy leaf, so juicy ... I wonder what kind of tea will be) I put it in the freezer)
Yes, and the barberry smells a little ... a rose))))) Let's see what tomorrow will be)

Lyuda, girls, my heart sensed that I have mistakes in making tea, Yesterday I put peach tea to dry late, today I think I need to dry it, otherwise it’s not enough. She turned on the oven and next to the children began to spread the waffle cakes with caramel sauce, and I can't understand where the honey smell comes from, it's like who got the honeycomb from the hive, then it just came, it's my tea from the oven that smells That didn't smell like that from the previous batch Girls can mix together the peach is honey and not honey or not worth it

[Matilda_81]

Matilda_81, flete, please, so I will do

if you make it bigger (green box), then just the gingerbread will fit. Pin the bow and there will be a feast for the eyes

Thank you, Anya. I will make boxes as I bake gingerbread cookies for gifts. I'll practice first ...

[ABOUT]

in our "family CHAIKHONE"

In Kazakhstan, we write "Chaikhana". "Hana" - a house, a room. So, literally "tea house". And in Uzbek on ABOUT there is spelling and pronunciation.

[flete]

But for 17.5 kg of tea it is necessary to erect a monument ... today I just have no legs))) this is still a couple of bags, and I collected rowan and raspberries with twigs, and fermented it, but regretted the meat grinder, I chose it while you grind it, now drying ... And yesterday I picked up a huge bag of mint fresh, ground it and put it in the dryer ... No. it's really hard ... I like the process itself, of course, but all the same - it's such a job ...

fleteIf you gradually make tea, from the very beginning of the season, it is not difficult at all. You started late, so you are trying to do a lot. And doing a lot, of course, is not easy. In May I started making tea (from maple, hazelnut, pine shoots). Little by little, little by little ... So this amount has turned out. I'm also limited by the size of my mini oven. It is much easier for owners of standard ovens. You can easily process 3 kg of leaves per day.
And in early summer, the leaves are soft. They are easy to work with. Even meat grinders can easily handle young leaves. And further. I have half of the fireweed tea. It is very easy and quick to assemble - 10 minutes and the complete package is assembled. Garden and other scents in this regard are different - to collect for a long time, and sometimes more difficult. So you are in not the best times for making tea. Nothing, but next year it will be easy for you.

I'm wondering ... can citrus leaves be fermented?

Anya, we tried to make girls out of mandarin. Moreover, not from home, but growing in a natural way. Not important tea turned out. We then did a debriefing and came to the conclusion that citrus fruits and their leaves are good due to essential oils. During fermentation, and especially drying, essential oils evaporate and all the charm of these leaves disappears. If I were you, I would simply twist the leaves in a meat grinder and dry them at a low temperature. And then you can add a little to tea. It should turn out well.

Lyudmila, thank you) I think next year I'll start with spring) Fortunately, you always need to remove wilds from apple trees, extra cherry bushes and other joy) So Gods will give, everything will be)
But everything is so exciting) I am running around with packets of leaves - I give everyone a sniff)) and with ready-made tea) Infected)

we went shopping yesterday and my husband looked at me electric meat grinder. for twisting leaves with metal. insides (although I have an electric meat grinder, but I regret it, because you wrote that they burn from the leaves) and a dryer (also for drying tea). You see what kind of seagulls we have when the men themselves begin to look at the equipment that helps in the production of our tea. She said that I will consult with you which technique is better to take. Although the dryer may not be necessary, I dry in the airfryer, but let it be. Whoa!

Lena, the meat grinder is the most important tool for us. So, well done husband, understanding. Buy. Superfluous will not be. And rightly so, that with metal. entrails. It will be more reliable.
But a tea dryer is not needed at all. You can't heat more than 70 * there. And we need to make 100 * at the beginning of drying. The dryer itself is a must. Since the beginning of August, it has not turned off for me - mushrooms, berries, greens, apples dry almost around the clock. But not tea ...
I have already written more than once about my "spoiled" tea - it was partially burned to embers. I chose these coals as much as I could, and poured tea into a jar. Just brewing it again for dinner. I drank and was thrilled with pleasure! We need to stop the fermentation with a high temperature (100 - 120 *) and "fry", caramelize the juice on a tea leaf. This gives the tea a flavor that the dryer won't.

I found an interesting video about harvesting mulch from the fall:

Natasha, thank you! Very helpful stuff. Girls, don't miss it!

[Olesya]

Lyuda, girls, my heart sensed that I have mistakes in making tea, Yesterday I put peach tea to dry late, today I think I need to dry it, otherwise it’s not enough. She turned on the oven and next to the children began to spread the waffle cakes with caramel sauce, and I can't understand where the honey smell comes from, it's like who got the honeycomb from the hive, then it just came, it's my tea from the oven that smells That didn't smell like that from the previous batch Girls can mix together the peach is honey and not honey or not worth it

Olesya, which means that the second batch was fermented more correctly. I already wrote to you, what mistakes can be, read my posts once more, where I answered you. And analyze your actions what and how you did in both cases. And it's better not to mix these parties. The first tea will still ripen. Take it away for now.

[flete]

So the Gods will give, everything will be) But everything is so exciting) I carry around with packets of leaves - I give everyone a sniff)) and with ready-made tea) Infected)

flete, Gods will give us, I'm sure. We are doing a good job.

I will make boxes as I bake gingerbread cookies for gifts. I'll practice first ...

Lyudochka, then catch the pattern on this box, the main thing is that it does not need to be glued)))

Anyut, thank you! Everything can be seen well and clearly. Already copied myself. I will do it!

I analyzed everything all the time. Here are the first times I had tea at fermentation cold, I missed the moment with the temperature. In my head there was one pastry for the wedding. And now there is no need to rush anywhere. Miracle tea, honey smell

[Olesya]

Olesya, then you are gaining skill! Well done !

Girls! Our Marina-Mariii has laid out a recipe for preparing coffee from seven components (rye, barley, oats, chicory, dandelions, etc.). And he is silent, like a partisan. I saw it by chance. Look at that utility and beauty Kava (seven-ingredient coffee drink)
And support her - she has the first recipe on the Bread Maker!

Luda, I remember ran into the topic of the news to read, and one of the girls wrote about fur coats. I remember I was surprised: What fur coats the author has on the first page about this there is nothing

[Olesya]

Olesya, in what topic? In our? I don't even remember anything about fur coats ...

Yes, in ours, well, as they hid in fur coats, blankets tea for fermentation. Or I even misunderstood, the memory is still in place

Aaaaa! Then in ours! There was a case! I wrap myself in blankets, some in jackets, and some don't mind fur coats ...
Yes, it may seem strange to an ignorant person ...

Are you all still asleep?

Are you all still asleep?

Well, it's Saturday, you need to sleep off

And we chopped the cabbage, and cut out the light - for the third time in the morning ... So the battery of the laptop is kept.

They left the dacha - the raw materials ran out ... The tea was transported and arranged, some of them were hidden so that no one could find, otherwise there are many who wish ... from among the guests ... It turned out a shelf of 70 by 40 and a depth of 40 cm, almost packed, and more disguised 10 liter containers, and several half-liter jars are put up for everyday consumption. Straight eye rejoices! I am already considering which of my relatives to give what tea. While everyone is drinking everyone and saying that very, very much. I myself, with my far from much love for this drink, began to kiss the cup several times a day ... And over the last month I lost 4 kg without doing ANYTHING for this! With almost daily baking of all sorts of different things, with bread from a bread machine, etc. So the benefits are already visible. And not only me!

[Veronica]

Veronica, Congratulations ! The harvest you have gathered is not small! I directly began to take measurements on my table to imagine what kind of shelf you have! And also all sorts of additions in the form of 10 liters and several jars promise that there should be enough tea until the next season.
Well, the side effect was shocking! Wow what our seagull does!
Veronica! I am very happy for you and your environment. Drink tea for good health!

[Veronica]

And over the last month I lost 4 kg without doing ANYTHING for this!

Veronica, and what kind of tea do you drink more often? I really want this side effect

Girls, don't come in here at least. You talk so deliciously about tea. I envy, white envy. But ... we already have leaves: nea: So, I'll wait for spring.

[Natasha]

Natasha, happy Birthday ! May all your dreams come true, including tea ones! Joy to you, health and happiness!

[Alla]

What kind of tea do you drink more often? I really want this side effect

Alla, yeah! The desire is very understandable for the residents of Bread Maker! How to eat whatever you bake and stay in shape is a dilemma!
Veronica, of course, will answer. but it seems to me that the main thing is to DRINK! And more!

Girls, don't come in here at least.

Natasha! What do you mean - "don't come in"! Oh no! Will not work ! Come and often!

[Ludmila]

Ludmila, Thank you for your congratulations! Yes, that's when the trees werelargegreen, just reading. And now there are more and more enthusiastic exclamations. Well ... I also wanted to, but the "train" has already left

that's when the trees werelargegreen, just reading.

Eh, Natasha! Well, what are you! I should have tried to make tea at least once. Then no one would have pulled me away from this occupation by the ears. Well, perhaps, only, winter ...
Nothing, tune in for next year now.

[Ludmila]

Ludmila, yes, over the winter as I study everything199p. So in the spring I will be "savvy" by 100%. I think it will be easier for me. After all, many here not only boast, but also describe negative experiences

Study it, Natasha! And there was very little negative experience. And then, in most cases, he turned positive. It was just that the girls couldn't stand it for a month to stand the tea in dry fermentation. I wanted to try it right away. Although I warned that no, no ... And a month later, another was pleasantly surprised by the results. Yes, I myself am a sinner. Disappointed, for example, in bird cherry, St. John's wort ... And now they make me happy.

[lappl1]

Peace to you, tea-makers!
Well, what ... My teas were resting, the cold came ... We brew - mmmm, as if you are drinking dried summer! :-)
lappl1Lyudochka, I don’t get tired of thanking you!
From me a photo report about teas, coupled with your gingerbread cookies on a burnt (yes, yes, I saw everything!)

Alla, I drink everything, a little more fireweed and strawberries. They remove harmful and nasty things from the body, a good diuretic. In general, Lyudmila is right - the amount drunk also matters!

Peace to you, tea-makers! Well, what ... My teas were resting, the cold came ... We brew - mmmm, as if you are drinking dried summer! :-)

Tanya, dear! I'm so glad to see you . I often remember you. I am very glad that everything is fine with you! And, of course, it is very nice that tea makes you happy. I remember how you said that despite the hard times, you will make tea. That peace will come and tea will come in handy. You looked into the water. Well done!
Peks, Tanechka, gingerbread and please your relatives with them and tea. And, of course, if you post a photo of your tea, you will please all of us very much!

[Veronica]

remove harmful and nasty things from the body, a good diuretic.

Veronica, here in this I am 100% convinced! Forgive me for naturalism, but when I drank only Ivan tea for 1 month in the summer, I was able to see this with my own eyes. In your individual bucket ( in our country WC) saw this "harmful and nasty", which began to leave my body on the third day of intensive use of Ivan tea.

Lyudmila, I was talking about bird cherry in the summer! That tea smells like flowers. But they didn’t believe me ... And still try the tea made from irgi: it looks like bird cherry, but a little cherry is still mixed with the almond aroma. It has settled with me since the end of June, now the fragrance is incredible! I now compare everything that has been collected and prepared. Tea made from raspberry leaves collected during the budding and flowering period - both forest and garden (remontant for me) - with a richer aroma than from those collected after fruiting. I can't say the same about strawberries - that the one and this one are the same.
And here's more about mulch ... I have mittlider, that is, narrow, beds, and there is a drip tape on them. I want to load mulch for a long time, but here's the question: it is necessary to fertilize the ridge according to the schedule once every 7 days. If you mulch, then you need to lift the tape, lay the mown grass under it, and on top of it there is already fertilizer - if you mulch on top of the tape, then the water will not wash the fertilizer ... And lifting the tape is horror! At first, nothing else, but when it all grows ... So I have been suffering for the second year - to do or not to do ... And the neighbor sometimes mulches with grass. And he burns the leaves. And he throws out the tops ... A complete translation of useful raw materials!

I also liked Irga very much - I did not even expect such a taste)

I am now drying granulated tea from a mixture of cherries, quince, raspberries, plums, grapes (7 varieties), in a ratio of 3: 1: 2: 1: 1, in its raw form it was 2100g. I took the bags out of the freezer yesterday morning and left everything in the entrance, there probably 10 degrees. But for the whole day, their hands did not reach them, and today the son twisted everything in a manual meat grinder, there were large holes on the grill (18pcs), fermented for 4 hours, although the aroma was already coming from the bags. The house is insane, the aroma is very strong when drying (I almost overslept a batch of tea, dozed off to the aroma). Granular is faster and easier to do than leaf, only a pity that the helpers live far away.

[Alla]

Alla, it's good that they were twisted in a manual meat grinder. Two years ago, I hooked up to email. harvester "Sanyo" was made in Japan, was purchased in 1989. And the guarantee was 25 years. It's just a miracle, and it was not a harvester: girl_cray1: I would have worked for another 100 years. But I decided to twist celandine grass on it. And that's it ... the motor burned out. You should have seen what kind of cup he has, 25 years have passed, and it sparkles and shimmers like new. Almost every day I knead something in it, whip it up. I think it is eternal. And now I have a manual meat grinder, but ...

[Natalia]

Natalia, there are two electric meat grinders in the house, I tried to twist it, but nothing happened, I was afraid that they would break. It is a pity that the motor burned out. Have you tried to repair it?

[Alla]

Alla, we have not seen such here. And one master even said: since there is such a great guarantee, then it cannot be repaired

Alla, I drink everything, a little more fireweed and strawberries. They remove harmful and nasty things from the body, a good diuretic. In general, Lyudmila is right - the amount drunk also matters!

I have mono tea from strawberries, I will drink. But I can't drink a lot of pure water.

Alla, I have the same story. I never drank ordinary water. And I never liked store tea either, I drank a small cup once a day. And then ... This is how habits change! And new skills and interests come - once again a huge gratitude to the skirmisher, Lyudmila!
