Well where I live water is scarce, and I cant afford to keep the swimming pool topped up any more. Freakin' council is killing me I tell ya.
So rather than let all that water go to waste what ya reckon, boiler up and she'd be right ?

How about an open ferment in the pool? 4 kilos of hops, a tonne of dex and 3/4 tonne of corn syrup. You won't need to stir, just put the filter on. I think racking could be a problem - unless you have a neighbour with an empty pool. I would advise bottling into jacuzzis for the second fermentation.
Cheers,
InCider.

Nice one Daz, maybe I'd better use the scoop to get the scum off the top - or whoever is swimming in it!
How many bags of hops would it take to make a pair of floaties?
Have you got salt/chlorine pool munkee or just chlorine?
