Add water to the fermenting vessel.

To juice the lemon, I use the following method. Bung in microwave for about 10 seconds. It probably won't even be warm to the touch. Slice it in half and stick a fork in it. Twist fork and you'll get much more juice out (because the microwave gets the internal structure of the lemon breaking down I guess). I also grated a bit of zest (the skin - just the yellow bit) into the pile of ginger. Put a measure of lemon into your water. I'd use a teaspoon or two.

Add the ginger (and if you've been daring a bit of the lemon zest) into your square of muslin cloth. pull the sides together and secure the corners into a package with the elastic band.

Add the sugar to the water and stir. I used 400g (Well, actually I used 800g because I'm using twice the ingredients all round)
