Yeah, i've had it for a while and never actually tasted it. The first one i know turned into shitty vinegar and i had to toss out. This one was actually alcohol but it still tasted like shit. Genuinely don't bother with acidic fruits. Probably got contaminated too since i made my own yeast with flowers, i'l use bread yeast next time.

Yeah I don't even want to fuck around with any perishables until I actually have the means to ferment them without it molding

What ingredients do you use? I'm just running sugar water and active dry yeast but I imagine there's a better way

Eh.. You can get special caps for gas, better yeasts for brewing, use sugar rich food that are in a state you would not patake in eating but not moldy, mash it up for easier access by the yeast dont just put a full carrot in there yk cut it up fine like you are making carrot salad.

Still bubbles a lot when I burp it, again a lot more than the first one did; this is a really good sign but also means it's not done yet. The smell is also better, I can already sense hints of alcohol on top of a mild honey scent. The pure sugar batch tasted and smelled like shit really so I'm excited for something more tolerable

Honey is a bad idea for beginners it's made to last long so it takes forever to actually ferment. Maybe try melasse, btw try checking if grocery stores have like apples or carrots that they threw away.

Makes a shitload of carbonation, even more than the first one.

Smells only of brown sugar and cinnamon at this point. Which is also better than my first bottle.

I hear I could make a basic mead if I just used all honey, but honey is expensive so I'm not doing that o algo

That might actually be gemmy doe if some of the honey gets left behind unfermented, hopefully it just makes it sweeter if that happens
