Actually the ones I knew of used bread as their yeast, because it was what they could get a hold of. They said to make sure not to have any mayo or mustard on it, or it wouldn't work right. lol

Got a hydrometer and yeah apparently you need to take a measurement before you add the yeast Decided to do a lil taste test just because ..and gotta say it's actually pretty nice ! Has a lil fizz to it and definitely can taste some alcohol forming. Wife said she's happily drunk it as is but we'll give it a few more days to see Still need to try the big batch Last edited by Wolfdog91; Yesterday at 04:37 PM.

Got 3 air locks an buns, siphon, tablets to slow/k,I'll the yeast before bottling, sugar and some apple and grape juice. O and some wine yeast and star sand sanitizer. Things I forgot ph testing stuff, yeast extra food stuff, and stuff to reduce the pH. Hould be years worth of experimenting fun. Wife likes sweet wine so will have to lean how to make it sweet not dry.
