Does this work?

>> No.6002903

Yes, but it's going to taste like shit.

Now you know why Prohibition failed.

Poorly, but yes

invest in proper wine/champagne yeast, it's not expensive. Also, be prepared to sterlize a ton of shit and experiment a lot.

The irony of this picture is, it's aimed at lazy ass halfwits who don't realize that homecooking just about anything is going to be cheap as hell. So, homemade stews and fried rice? too much work, braaah. But cheap alcohol that will smell and taste like shit? FUCK YEA. BRO SIGN ME UP.

Either take the time to do it right, or just buy cheap bum wine.

There used to be constant homebrew threads on /ck/, I wonder what happened to them/

>> No.6002933

Yes it works but it'll taste like shit. If you want to use that method use store bought fruit juice (NOT orange) and wine yeast.

>> No.6002944

Youre meant to homebrew to make good tasting alcohol

dont forget a proper airlock

two napkins, a balloon or similar just aren't good options

For the love of god, please strain that shit before drinking it.

just buy cleaning alcohol and dilute a put a tea spoon in a 2L bottle of juice. It's cheaper and faster.

If you don't put over 2lbs of sugar in there it should be alright. Otherwise that is like jet fuel.

Cider that's alcoholic.

Soft drink = not alcoholic
hard drink = alcoholic

>Cider that's alcoholic.

But Cider is by definition alcoholic. If it wasn't, it'd be apple juice.

>> No.6003212

>>6003201

All cider is alcoholic. It's just apple juice otherwise.

>> No.6003219

>>6003210

In British English, yes. but as we've discussed on this board so many times I cannot even count, in the USA the term "cider" is meaningless, so "hard cider" is used for the alcoholic beverage. Silly? Perhaps. But that's the way it is.

Why use a word that's meaningless? Americans are so silly.

The fact that it's the 'English language' sort of implies that they do.

In American English, "cider" generally means unfiltered apple juice.

But that's wrong. You don't need an airlock, you don't need to rack, and you don't need to age. Unless you spill vinegar in it like a fuckass you won't end up with vinegar.

I bet you haven't even tried, you're just mimicking what everybody else says online.

The obsession over high technology in homebrewing is quite similar to tacticool /k/ers.

I've brewed a few hundred gallons of wine and mead in the past few years. Enjoy your bitter waters and vinegars.
