Gona try the polish syrup thing tonight, couple of quick questions though. Could I use hot water from a hot water tank to help start off the yeast since the cold tap stuff is very cold this time of year and would slow down the process would it not?
Also can this be left on next to a windows in sunlight or would that kill off the yeast or something?

i wouldnt use stored hot water you dont know what craps in the tank
go get 3x 2ltr bottles of water from tescos 17p each put them on the radiator for a day, us the water then save the water bottles to put the brew in once fermented PET bottles FTW for secondary fermentation

i left mine on the worktop in direct sunlight never had a problem
