/diy/ - Do It Yourself

If you just want cheap you have plenty of options. Beer is even doable with a little rednecking it.

You might like kilju, take it all the way to the yeasts alcohol max and then mix it. It will taste shitty but anything is drinkable with enough sugar and acid, maybe bitterness if you want to try that. 8lbs of sugar, 4 or 5 gallons of water, maybe some nutrients to help things along. From here you just yeast and wait. You can keep adding sugar 2lbs at a time until the yeast die. Depending on the yeast you choose this could be from 10-20%abv.

You can only go up from here, provided you keep stuff like poop and cum out of it. If I were on a budget I'd get a bunch of apple juice, some dried malt extract, and an ale yeast. Skeeter pee seems easy but some people try to follow the recipe and have trouble. It's always just sugar, yeast, water, and extra shit. I don't win any awards but I sure as hell get drunk. I really like using lots of hibiscus in my skeeter pee.

The trick is always making a big starter. Sprinkle yeast in juice, maybe add some old yeast goo from an old batch that you boiled, shake and swirl it a lot, let it fall clear to pour off, add more good liquid and repeat until you're ready to add to you booze-to-be.
