  1. Ein paar Tage warten zeigt, dass es sich natürlich um Kamhefen handelt. Nicht giftig deswegen kann es einfach untergerührt werden.

  6. The big bottle is with figs, the two smaller ones with honey and lemon.

    I like the 🍋 ones more than the one with the figs.

    I'm really happy, both tastes really great!

  10. More #fermentation #fermenting

    This time, #plums

    Our plum tree is the tree which keeps on giving.

    We have had so many plums that we strewed half and I decided to ferment some.

    You'll see the current collection, plus the to-be fermented plums on the right.

    It's a big Mason jar. I hope this goes well and doesn't mould. I've gone for a 3.5% salt solution by weight of fruit and water, to try and ensure things like kham yeast don't form.

    Oh -- my wife provided the labels. Had I done this, the legibility would have been zero... ;)

    Wish me luck!

  11. A new batch of vegetables ready for fermenting is underway - swede, carrots, red pepper, red onion, celery, garlic, green chilli, salt and pepper. I just love the process of fermenting vegetables and they are so good for you. Ready to eat in 1 to 2 months. #fermenting #vegan #vegetarian

  20. CW: Homebrewing FAQs

    I've been making homemade wines and meads for over 10 years, here's some of the frequent questions I get:

    -Can I use regular bread yeast?
    Yes! Your brew might not win any awards, but it'll be decent homemade booze.

    -Do I need an airlock?
    Yes, but you don't have to buy one. You can use a balloon with a pinhole poked in it, or a piece of breathable fabric tied with a rubber band.

    -Do I need a hydrometer to measure specific gravity?
    Only if you really, really care to know whether your wine is 17% or 18% alcohol. I don't think it matters.

    -Do I need to add raisens?
    No, that's only for brews without added yeast.

    -Do I need to buy special sanitizer like One-Step?
    No, soap and very hot water will work just fine. You can do a bleach bath with 1 Tablespoon in 5 gallons of water if you really want.

    -How long do I have to age my wine before drinking it?
    Look, the initial ferment is done after about 3 weeks. You can drink it. If you let it settle after bottling for like a month, it will clarify and taste better because any sediment will drop to the bottom. After that, it's up to you. I've had 6 month, 18 month, and 5 year wine, and I couldn't tell much difference. Sure, the 5 year wine was best, but not better enough to wait 5 years for it, ya know? I say just drink it!

    -I've seen a lot of warnings, is homebrewing dangerous?
    No more dangerous than preparing any other raw food. There is a very small potential you could grow a toxic bacteria, but you will know it. It won't smell like alcohol or it'll get black and slimy on top. I've never had this happen once in 10 years, it's basically the same odds of getting salmonella from eating undercooked eggs. Wash everything well with soap, keep your working area clean, and you should be fine. If the brew doesn't look/smell right to you, don't drink it, and try again.

    Overall, online forums and blogs about brewing can be kinda snobby and make it seem like you need all this fancy expensive equipment to get started, and it's bullshit. I've made brews with a plastic milk jug and a balloon. Humans have been making alcohol since there were humans. You don't need specialized equipment, just feed your yeast friends some sugar and voila!

    Like making bread, brewing is a skill that has been eroded by mass produced culture. And that's a shame, because I think humans' reciprocal relationship with yeasts is one of the cornerstones of our species. Fermenting things is like harnessing the powers of life and death, and bridging the boundry between the two. Fermenting is magic.

  21. CW: Homebrewing with dandelions

    Spent the morning plucking flowers to make my annual dandelion wine. Since these are some of the first flowers in my area, I try not to take too many from one spot. Also, since I'm using them for food, I make sure not to pick any that are within 50 ft of the road because of the potential car exhaust.

    So, that means I went ranging far to get the quart of blossoms that I needed. I ended up having a fairytale moment where I was so focused on just plucking the next flower I saw that I looked up and realized I was nearly a mile from home, oops!

    Now time to turn my fingers yellow and pluck all these petals off. It's a hassle, but the wine will be much tastier without the bitter green parts.

  22. Enjoying all the cakes going by today! Meanwhile I'm doing the kefir update.

    It's about every 3-4 weeks I'm averaging now I think. Got the process pretty well figured out. Enjoying the results.

  25. The Netherlands is picking up with kimchi.
    Finally.
    But.
    Local Deli with Korean experience watched reports about how some large companies handle that.
    Under the microscope: Real ferment is fully alive with pro-biotics , germs. Millions
    Commercial: Not a single one.
    "This product is dead. Ceased to be. Kicking the daisies. This is no longer a kimchi. It went to meet it's creator ( Did it ?)"

  26. I’ve never made a hot sauce. Maybe I should.

    #food #fermenting

  27. Huge batch of fermented pepper sauce tonight! 3.6L I think? My friend donated some dates so this batch is sweet and spicy. No tamarinds this time either.

    Bonus, I used some of the leftover brine to make soup broth and it's LOVELY 😋

    Oh and I started some pickles! They might be a disaster already but it's worth a try.

  28. More fabulous fermenting - kimchi! Swede, carrots, spring onions, red pepper, green chilli, garlic, root ginger, red onion, red chilli powder, salt and black pepper in this one. #kimchi #vegan #vegetarian #fermenting

  29. Good news, the fermentations clearly restarted, albeit less violently #recipe #Cooking #fermenting

  30. Kitchen adventures, my fermenting red onions after I swapped the brine today on day 3. The fermentation was /very/ activeand the brine (2%) had become cloudy, and „escaped“ the jar.
