Re: Sanitizer and Bottles

For the brewing cycle, just rinse out the 2 liter bottles with regular tap water. Using EZ Caps the beverage ferments so quickly that the alcohol quickly reaches a level that effectively makes the process self-sanitizing. You can run the beer bottles through the dishwasher to sanitize them but to be...

Re: Watering Down Homebrew Beer

Personally, I would just drink it! But, the only acceptable way to accomplish what you are attempting is to mix it with another beer. It could be another homebrew or beer that is bought in the store. My dad used to make very dark bitter beers and then mix his "concentrate" with budweiser r...

Re: Carbonated drink fermentation question.

Question #24: I can't tell if it's fermenting. How do I tell? When do I stop? Answer: When a beverage begins to ferment small bubbles will rise to the top. As the fermentation gets more vigorous foam may form at the top of the beverage. You may occasionally hear a hissing sound as the EZ cap vents C...

I've never heard of something being too sweet to ferment. Mixes with honey can be difficult to start, especially if its not boiled first.

Re: Summer Cider

I really want a killer recipe for a refreshing hard cider for the summer. I have made a couple batches successfully already, but I would really like to add some flavors under the apple. So far I have thought lemon and ginger, but I would love to hear so different ideas--what sounds like a good refr...

Re: Fermenting Silly Beverages

Re: Fermenting Silly Beverages

Recently while perusing the internet, I came across a tutorial on how to ferment Hawaiian Punch :lol: . Being the beverage that it is, there are tons of preservatives that prevent it from being fermented. But apparently if you boil it prior to fermenting and "stir it around to release any sulf...
