looks disgusting. do you not know how to filter?

>>16701068
looks thicc and creamy like my girlfriend's bull's cum
>>16701096
beer up until the 20th century usually looked like that. Ancient beers even had bits of wheat floating on the top so they would usually consume the beverage from a large vase using straws

>>16701096
no

>>16701068
Isn't it a bit early to be sharing your cumbottles?

>>16701096
tell me how

>>16701119
say all you want, but it's drinkable and it has higher % than normal beer, what I wanted

>>16701119
first time also

>>16701154
Were you the anon that followed the youtube video of that russian guy?

>>16701154
How do you figure out the abv?

>>16701270
Yes, I was.

>>16701272
You calculate it based off how much fermentable sugar is present at the beginning and at the end of the fermentation. On the hobbyist level this is done by measuring the density of the liquid with a hydrometer or calibrated floaty thing.

>>16701272
like boris said on the video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vBc0K_7LQpk))
I have no idea! (prob 7%-9% though)
I followed this video guide btw
I'm drunk btw

>>16701273
Nice. Glad to hear it came out drinkable! If you enjoyed the process you can look into making extract beer with hops next. Totally doable if you have a big pot and a stove.

Basically you add malt syrup to 2 gallons of water then boil hops in it. Then add to 3-4 gallons cold water and pitch your yeast.

A bottler, bottles, and bottle caps are fairly inexpensive as well. Maybe 80-100 dollars for all supplies and 30-50 for a 5 gallon kit.

I recently bottled up 190 750ml bottles of 15% plum wine that I aged for 1 year in a used wine barrel. Price came out to like 1-2 dollars per bottle because I have a couple plum trees.

>190 750ml bottles of 15% plum wine that I aged for 1 year
wow. That's fucking amazing.

I'll definitely try with hops, and boiling kek.I will make another batch and post here in the future, to let you know.

I'm very happy with the results though. First time, youtube tutorial and I'm drunk out of my mind with a nice taste lmao. See you

>Price came out to like 1-2 dollars per bottle because I have a couple plum trees.
I'm sure sold them for $10+?

>>16701364
Although inexpensive money wise it takes many hours of work to harvest the plum trees and deal with 45 gallons of liquid. Probably something around 20 hours.

I'd like to sell them for like $12 individual and 120 for a case or something. I'm waiting another 2 years of aging in the bottle before digging in. The aging really imrpoves the flavor.

Really good to hear that you put your work hours into such consideration AND have enough patience to work on it for 2 more years. Keep up the good work and good luck on your path of homebrewing

I have a 5 gallon vat o honey yeasty pus brewin

>>16701563
I'm thinking of replacing the malt with honey too. It's easier to find and cheaper.

>>16701602
Honey takes a long ass time to fully ferment. Mead is pretty tasty if you can get good quality honey.

>>16701609
how long, following all adequate procedures ?

>>16701614
10-20 days then you want to age it for 3-6 months. I could have sworn the honey makes the ferment a lot slower, but it only doubles the time. I may have gotten it confused with clarifying which will take a few months.

what the... ancient beer wojak?

>>16701633
Sipping on an extra bitter dipa

>>16701633
Kek

To make beer I just need malt, yeast, water, and a container to ferment it?
What type of container do I need? Would a mason jar or something common work or do I need some fancy shit?

>>16701068
homebrewing beer seems like such a pain in the ass. for me it's apple juice mixed with sugar then high tolerance yeast

>>16701795
This is all it takes?
That sounds pretty good honestly

>>16701800
yeah it yields a high abv apple cider pretty quickly, you can even ferment it straight in the juice containers. just wait a couple of weeks after it's done then it'll taste good

>>16701808
Whats your ratio for juice:sugar:yeast?
And does it need to be refrigerated or anything while it ferments?
How high's the abv?

I have had some golden syrup "mead" brewing for a few months now. I think I'll leave it at least a year before trying it.

>>16701816
1:1:1 for a gallon of juice, a lb of sugar and a gram of yeast. you don't need to do anything special with it, average abv is around 15-17% but I had a couple of batches that reached 18%

>>16701096
Bud light

>>16701633
stop replying to yourself

>>16701837
>average abv is around 15-17% but I had a couple of batches that reached 18%
Woah!
Perfect, thank you anon
I looked it up and I need a "rubber stopper and fermentation airlock", too, right? It wouldn't work if I just used the little plastic cap those jugs come with, right?

>>16701854
you don't need that if you ferment directly in the bottles, just unscrew the cap enough so that gas can get released but nothing can enter

>>16701865
Then this should be easy
Thanks again anon I'll try it soon

>>16701865
There's going to be a lot of bad tasting yeast at the bottom of each bottle if you do this. You will have to pour off the bottle very carefully and completely or a lot of it will get mixed back into the liquid partly in chunks.

>hooch with concord grape juice and some grape punch concentrate
tastes like grape drank but is somehow astoundingly good

>>16701853
Fuck off, dumbass.

>>16701068
Would it be possible to ferment my own cum for beer?

>>16701096
>filtering beer
Looks like you're the one that got filtered

>>16704870
>t.

kek why was this my first thought
