Karen (and other beginners),
There is an excellent homepage set up by ericg@indiana.edu (still on
the list Eric?). Check out URL
http://www.astro.indiana.edu/personnel/ericg/ferment.html
You'll find everything you need to know about getting started,
equipment on a budget, yeasts, sugars, etc.
Cheers,
Chuck

If you are looking for a warm place to get a bit of fermentation, try putting
the bottles on top of the fridge. This is often the warmest place in the
house; I know my cats spend most of their time there, and cats are useful
heat-seeking tools.
