We have that special breed of mosquitos in Germany, the one whose bits itch like hell so that you scratch yourself bloody and get your skin infected…I used a glass container with a glass lid and glass weights so everything was very clean. I didn't even get any yeast to skim. Mosquitos made me shudder. I didn't even know there were mosquitos in Germany. I guess I've mostly been there in colder months.
Seriously: The only place in the world where there are no Mosquitos is Antarctica! Damn bloodsuckers!
