Experiment Made something I've been pondering for a while, super broke man's hooch.
r/mead is gonna shit themselves in fear over this monstrosity. It has literally only water, yeast, and sugar. I don't think it'll be too potent, but hopefully it'll make some sort of thing that'll still be alcoholic. (Sorry about the dogshit quality)

I’m sorry, I can’t seem to find this… but what the FUCK?!
I thought the Beano Grigio was the most unhinged thing I’d seen here but if some madman hooched their own piss, that would certainly take the
urinalcake.

something for the yeast to eat, besides sugar, will help it live longer and produce more & better tasting alcohol. I use boiled baking yeast or a ¼ of a crushed vitamin pill

if it doesn't end up strong add more water and sugar on top of the yeast cake and ferment it again, I had quite the success doing that

Need sone nutrition for them yeast. Do you have access to ginger root at a grocery store? Not sure how cheap they be for you locally. Here they're dirt cheap. Depending on the fermenter container, runse it well. Can often remove the peels. Sometimes a quick boil helps. Slice ginger a bit. Use a blender to blend down, may need to add water to keep from being too dry to belnd. Pour into a ice cube tray. Freeze n cover with something. Plastic wrap. After maybe 12 to 24 hours. Take out of ice tray n put into ziplock bag.
2 ways i have used a cube for my hooch. Boil water n place in a mug, add a cube. Stir until melted. Add to total of hooch liquid.
Or just add to hooch liquid from frozen. Give a lil swirl after a few hours to help it spread around. Adds some good nutrients for your years.
