My third batch of pombe, unlike the first two, is a fantastic
success. I wouldn't serve it to company, but it makes me confident
that I shall have something presentable in the near future.

Only one wee problem: I didn't have any sugar left in the house,
that all having gone into the ale, so I finished it with a can of
caramel syrup I had lying around from one of my daughter's sandwich
sprees. Then after I'd melted it in hot water and tossed it into the
brew, I got around to reading the label. "...hydrogenated vegetable
oil or coconut oil..." Oops. This means no head, and you have to
pour it through a strainer to get rid of the slices of fat floating
on the surface.

Cheers to all.
