FAQ
Q. What is the scum that appears when making the skittle vodka?
A. I've been told this is hydrogenated fat. Strain and throw it away when the sweets have dissolved.
Q. Why do you take some of the vodka out before putting the sweets in?
A. Simple displacement.
Q. Why do you put the mixture in a sink full of hot water?
A. The water warms the vodka making the sweets dissolve faster. If you can't use the sink option you can put it in a dishwasher or leave it overnight. Or but the bottle in a saucepan of hot water with the lid loose. WARNING this can be lead to explosion and fire!
Q. How do you mix the chocolate based sweets?
A. Gently melt the chocolates in a bowl over hot water then gradually add vodka. When it's easily pourable pour it all back into the vodka bottle.
Q. I want to make some but I don't know what to try first.
A. If you don't want to try anything risky give the Werthers or Foxes Glaciers a try.
I might send it to skeet and see if he explodes and then get him to pass it on.
I really didn't like it, and i played it for the guts of 4 hours last night, and not once did i think, this is good value for money.
I'd rather quality of the system than quantity of the space. I'm happy having the 60g ps3 and having to prune old data files every so often than missing out on SD and Flash card stuff. Not to mention backwards compat. etc.
