For those who want to make a quart or a whole gallon and need to figure out the amount of sugar it is super easy. There are two half gallons in a gallon so if you are making whole gallon, simply double the amount. There are two quarts in a half gallon so if you are making a quart, then half the amount.
Thank you! Wonderful video!
Thank you Heidi 🥰🥰
Heidi, I just got through starting 2 half gallons of apple vinegar & dehydrating the apple slices,so now instead of having one product out of the apples I had,we will have 2,thank you so much & God bless 🥰🥰💞🙏💞
My vinegar molded. Is it salvageable? I added 1/4 c sugar but set it on my counter. Missed the fact I should have stirred every day.
@@debrabaer5037 Just allow it to finish out then lift/scoop the moldy parts off the top and strain. If it turned to vinegar as it should have, it will kill any mold that may have ended up in it
After I strained my apple vinegar I threw in 2 cinnamon sticks. What a delicious shot for helping with digestive issues.
Omg yummmm
I’m going to do this thanks
Make sure to use Ceylon Cinnamon!!! .. other cinnamons are 2% + essential oil and hard on livers!
@@TakeTheNameGodsGirlz Thank you for info :)
What a GREAT idea!
Not sure if someone has already commented on this. The reason why vinegar will go flat and mold if not enough sugar is added is down to the microbiology. Acetobacter are pretty high up on the microbe food chain. First wild yeast (or added yeast) breaks down the sugars and turns them into alcohol. Yeast can't really live in a high alcoholic environment, so they begin to die off. Acetobacter loves alcohol/sugar and turns it into acetic acid. But it will also eat lower class microbes like molds, yeasts, and other bacterium. Once it runs out of food, they will start to cannibalize themselves. If they have not created enough acetic acid to ward off other ph sensitive microbes, the baddies will move in and take over. Having plenty of sugars (but not too much) will allow a smooth transition from yeast to acetobacter and eventually form a scoby. This means there are still living acetobacter (and probably some living yeasts) in the vinegar and the population has reached a balance that will safely ward off other microbes. Once finished, keeping it airtight will help vinegar to last (potentially) forever.
My friend... thank you! Appreciate it
Yes great point....like when making red wine vinegar you must add 64oz of filtered water to a gallon of wine before you ferment. The liquid must have an alcohol percentage of 9% or lower or like you so effectively explained the fermentation will stall.
Do you mean Kahm? I have concord grape mash and it was fine for a couple of weeks. But, now it is growing Kahm.
Thank you for clearing that up for me.
Amazing explanation... Thank you so so so much.
Your an amazing good hearted loving woman teaching how to live a better life, I was given a life sentence by my Dr. I lost hope became so depressed after months past taking 15 different medications aday I woke up and one of your video pop up since then I realized If I beleave him it will happen sooner so I took a big step weening off meds down to 5 and keeping up holding on to hope and remind myself that I can do this I will live !!! There's so much healthier ways. "I CAN DO THIS" !!! Thank you❤
Blessings and healing to you, faith to move mountains and peace!
A doctor once told me you are 98% responsible for your health and treatment. She said she would work with me because I did not want to take a plethora of meds. Food is also medicine and your gut does alot of those processes, so that is one of the first things you want to take care of so your liver, kidney, pancreas, spleen, gall bladder can all get back on line as a team. Ferments are good to encourage your own body's good bacteria to grow. I noticed I felt really lousy to begin with, but as the days passed and I got better I really didn't know I was that sick until I started feeling better. I did still need the doctor, I did have 3 surgeries. I haven't been to a medical facility in a long time. Some doctors are also licensed to practice natural health alternatives. You have to ask around, some announce it, some don't.
@@loboalamo what a wise doctor, hard to find nowadays!
loboalamo what about people that have had their gallbladder removed? I had to have mine removed in 2016 and my body has not been the same sense! I goof around with my doctor and ask him if I can have a gallbladder transplant!!! I absolutely hate not having my gallbladder! My stomach hurts all the time! I know you are not supposed to eat high fat foods but even when I eat an apple it tends to hurt.
@@TheSunRiseKid have you looked into bile salts or oxbile? Or other natural supplements.....
Hello Heidi,
I am a new subscriber (3months). I came over from Mary’s Nest. Between your tutorials and Mary’s, I have a science experiment kitchen. 🙂
It is very rewarding, and therapeutic to work old style in the kitchen. I am enjoying this new journey. Currently looking for gallon buckets or larger to make vinegars. I started in quarts and loved it. But I need larger sizes with all the cleaning and laundry, I have little ones. It will save me so much money.
Food scraps to vinegar? Good Lord, I wasted so much before!
Thank you Heidi! Today I will be making the salves and creams, got the beeswax today. 🙂
God bless you!
We get big food grade buckets from bakeries in meijers and walmart for free.
Me too. I like both of these lady's ideas. They are good teachers.
Heidi has videos on salves, creams and beeswax??
I’ve just found her channel. I’m going to have to check this out . Thank you 🌺
me too @@Bee-Kind-Baker
With Every single one of your videos I watch, I get more and more impressed with the knowledge that you have with everything you do …
your husband has to be so extremely proud of you…
I just can’t say it enough…
Thank you for sharing…
Blessed Be
I keep coming back to this video every fall when im making my acv, especially now that my previous batch made a scoby! Youre an angel! God bless you!
I do have a more recent one here: th-cam.com/video/XQ2O-pt1EVs/w-d-xo.html
Hallelujah, God is good all the time. God bless you sister.
Just want to say Thank You Heidi. I never tried making my own vinegars before I saw your channel and now I make them all the time! I use them for everything from cleaning to laundry to using in the meals I prepare. I always hated to throw away the peel and cores and scraps from my garden grown fruits, herbs and veggies and thanks to you, now I don't have to! :) Blessings
Lemon juice from banana peels and mint! Insane! I have to try this!... thanks so much for sharing...we love any citrus!
I don’t comment a lot lately but I do enjoy rewatching your videos. Wish I could give another 👍 for each video I rewatched. Thank you as always!
🥰
Dear Heidi, Whenever I want to learn about doing something the right way, I know you'll usually have a specific video demonstrating how to do it to the best of your ability, and/or what has worked for you. THANK YOU!!
Wow it looks so easy. I'm going to make 5 vinegars today. I'll start with banana peel and mint. My ex gave me a bunch of ripe bananas last night to make banana bread with. I'll make banana bread, and use the peels to make vinegar. I foraged a few cups of wild mint on Thursday. I'll add some of that to the banana vinegar. Then I'll make a rose and cherry vinegar, a rose and apple vinegar, and an orange and herb vinegar, and a beetroot, chive flower and lemon grass vinegar.
OMG putting the scoby on top as a weigh is genius!!! I will definitely do that with my ferments!! Thank you so much for your great videos!!
Please don’t use God’s name in vain. God bless you.
@@conniedetevis2119 I'm sure OMG also is considered OH MY GOSH
@@conniedetevis2119 Excitement isn't vain. Take your low-vibe somewhere else.
So if you do that are you putting it on the top when you first start or in the second stage when you have removed all fruit? And if in the beginning stage are you still stirring each day?
What is the use of the scoby(scobie?) once one has developed? @@micheletanis9973
I loved this video!!! I made vinegar for the first time this year using the scraps from muscadines given to me and used for jam. I got a basic recipe online, used half a cup of sugar. So many of these tips you gave were things I had to wing.... but the vinegar turned out so good!! And I was so excited about my big fat scoby! And now I feel much better about my little thin one, too!
Good to know since I just picked muscadine grapes & want to make jelly but didn’t want to waste the pulp.
Glad you decided to do this one Heidi; Lots of questions going around on this one!
Oh ya: Update: The apple peal and core vinegar that went alcohol on me is now resolved! I had already removed the fruit, so I simply I added the mother from my other batch and threw in parts from two more apples. It is no longer alcoholic and has become sour headed towards vinegar! Success!
I went on vacation for 2 week.and didn't my friend to strain when it stopped fuzziness. Today it seem ,to be alcohol. Should I dump it? I don't have any mother than if I buy some.
Whoever the lady is that made your jar covers for you could easily make a business out of that.
They are not only beautiful, but monetizable.
Thanks dear for yet another wonderful video.
God Bless you and yours.
So much help! Now, off to watch the video about removing chlorine, etc.. I appreciate that you mention other videos that you have done. I don't always remember all of the little things that make a big difference. Thank you so much for the work you put in for these videos and all of the photos you add. Your channel and info is a treasure!
I make apple sauce with my leftover apples after my cider is done. I add cinnamon and sugar or honey to taste and blend it smooth. Its really delicious :)
Love ,love, love this instructional video. I am a beginner and you explain everything so well. I can't wait to try different varieties . Thank you !! I really appreciate all the knowledge you share ❤
Heidi I finally made Apple Vinegar!!! So excited! I canned a bunch of apple jelly, pie filling and apples and had a bunch of cores and peels. It was so interesting watching it ferment the last several weeks...sounded like backwards Latin sometimes 😄
Just tested it and filtered it out and it tastes like vinegar!! Now onto citrus vinegar!
Thank you again and God Bless You😊
You are amazing and are blowing my mind with all the different vinegars I can make. Thank you!
Our local food drive provided me with loose pomegranate seeds that had begun to ferment as the plastic seal was broken, I mashed them up with some blueberries and they're making one of the healthiest vinegars I've made thus far, a mighty pellicle has formed over top it and the smell is heavenly. just thought I'd share. thank you for helping me get into vinegar making.
Always goodnis on your channel. Learn so mutch the last jears. In the low times of my life more than one teacher i listen to. Never learnd this, there was nobody to learn from. Start to make a note box for my children and grandchildren. Little things you make the biggest different. Thank you 🍀
Thanks for the update on making vinegar. The first 2 I tried failed but decided to give it another go. I made a raisin and a mixed fruit one. Came out great! I currently have 3 going, an apple, a pomegranate and a floral for using on my hair. I love making vinegar. 😃
do u think u know what caused the failures?
@@americaneden3090 No, I haven't figured that out. I just keep trying.
Look at y'all go! Keep it up dear Rain Country family.
Girlfriend!! Your channel is just what I needed! Thank you so much for making this content. I had no idea you could get so creative with vinegar-making. I've wasted SO much over the years! We have what I think is a crab apple tree in our back yard. Once I figure that out, I'll have some science projects on my counter!
Also, thank you for explaining things in a very straight forward and practical manner.
I wish I had a neighbor like you ! Thank you !
This is a great video! You have helped close some gaps that were keeping me too intimidated to try and make vinegar. Thank you!
I go back to this video from time to time and check that what I am doing is actually MAKING vinegar and not having to compost my yeast mix! Thanks Heidi for continuing education videos. We need them.
Heidi I just love your videos! This one just affirmed what I have in my pantry. I usually use up gleanings from making an apple pie. I’ve always been mystified what the result was. Sometimes I ended up with a really fizzy and flavourful cider! So I just seal them and put them in the pantry and forget them. Suddenly I have a great vinegar and it tastes wonderful in a glass of cold water! Sure settles the old tum!
Thank you so much! Started mixed fruit vinegar and herb/citrus vinegars. I was watched a video where the host blended up her first fermentation fruit and used a nut bag to juice alot of vinegar out!
I have wanted to do this for years...such a great video and so thankful that you have shared your knowledge...
Thank God for you, what a blessing you are. Thank you!
Gods perfect timing! I had been wondering how to make vinegar. I appreciate you and every video you make. I'm a beginner in the plant world and you've help me alot in the last few months. In fact, you're the only one I follow.
I've just started on apple vinegar, thanks for all the information. Brings me a big step forward.
Was very inspired by your vinegar videos and decided to try with marigolds, purple basil and lemon balm. Smells amazing can't figure out how to share pic but thank you❤️
I know this is an Old Post I'm enjoying listening to you and watching what you do I'm learning a lot and I'm going to make my own vinegar you taught me a lot and you're really great at what you do thanks for the Post
Just started some apple vinegar. My first try. Thank you ❤
I am convinced I can start vinegars now! Thanks for all the great videos they truly are helpful and appreciated.
You are a hardworking lady .. very well explained
Tried several times and finally succeeded, smells great. Now I have 4 to use in dressing. Never remember to stir so I bought glass weights on Amazon, make a big difference.
My glass weight falls to the bottom. Got any ideas why. Is there a time when I shouldn’t use it any more because of the fruit break down.
Most useful and well described instruction. Kudos to you, and thanks for this detailed tutorial. So good to see repurposing and avoidance of waste in these processes.
Very informative guide- you answered all of my questions at every step of the way. Much appreciated!
Still so impressed that you are my one stop classroom.
Thanks Heidi, now I’m gonna be trying the banana and mint one for sure. Plus I’ve been waiting on the fruit to get ripen and my part of the world. Only because I want it all natural. But I’ve got to try the banana one now 😂
You’re so full of wonderful information. Thank you so very much. God Bless You.😊
Great video as always! I use to make it without a starter but this time I added a little kombucha and ACV from a previous batch and the fermentation got so much stronger and sooner.
Thanks! I had that ? Ill be using a kombucha scoby!
Bless your sweet heart. Once I found you,I listen to you every day. You have inspired me so much. God 🙌 Bless
I have my first vinegar brewing right now! Thanks for sharing your process.
Wow, so much knowledge. I was watching something on Living Traditions about scraps and she sent me this way and I am so glad that I came for a visit!! I will be back. Linda, Quebec city, Canada
Kevin and Sarah are good people :)
Excellent video Heidi. I love making all kinds of vinegars also !!!
Hi Heidi, I just have watched this old video. Thank you so much for your explanations. I try to make my own Apple vinager with apple peels and sugar. I prepared one gallon 5 months ago and it is starting to fermenting. I wait some weeks and the surprise. 😂 have a good day ❤
I made blueberry vinegar this summer. We put the blueberry along with the vinegar on our salads.
That sounds brilliant!
Me too!!!!
wow your videos are just super informative! I will be starting more vinegar using scraps. I'll never make vinegar from good fresh fruit again! what a great way to save money and not waste food.
Heidi, you are such an inspiration, I am right now attempting to make banana, grapes, & blueberry vinegar. The first time in my life to make vinegar in 25 years.
I wanted to ask how long does vinegar last? I actually did use a Martha Washington recipe about 30 years ago when I made blueberry vinegar and it’s still in the glass bottle with a cork on it. I was wondering how I know if it is still any good?
It looks a lot like a thick syrup. Also I’m making persimmon wine for the first time. We have 4 gallons, two I’m using your method and two my friend is using, Let’s say a more purified method, with all kinds of stuff he put in it to keep bad yeast from forming. I’m trying your way. And mine is still bubbling. Anyway God bless you for inspiring me.
Absolutely love your video very, very informative. Just started making vinegar so this is helpful!
So much good info, never would have known to make vinegar and all the various uses if not for your videos, thank you so much, blessings
🥰
Thank you for the explanation of the difference between apple vinegar and apple cider vinegar! I learn so much from you.
I’ve always wanted to do this. Thank you for taking the time to make your videos. I’m aware how much time it takes. Be well
Those covers are adorable! What a sweet, thoughtful lady💕. Thank you for such great, informative videos‼️🙌🏼❤️
Hi Heidi, For my first try of vinegar, I couldn’t think of anything but making lemon 🍋 (the whole fruit) vinegar. I know expensive but it is just like I was compelled LOL. I HAD to try it, I wanted lemon vinegar SO BAD!! Anyway I took 5 nice size lemons, cut them up a bit and gave them a buzz in the blender. Much of it got really pulped, that could have been my first mistake! Then I put 1/4 C sugar in my 1/2 gal jar with my well water, gave it a mix and covered with a coffee filter and rubber band.. Stirred it every day for WEEKS, took white mold off DAILY after about 2 weeks. I added more water once, then after a few more days I added another 1/4C sugar and some fresh, small chopped up lemon and still stirred it every day… Well, here we are May 6 and over the months, (almost 2) there is STILL white mold on it constantly and I am now DONE with Lemon vinegar. I am going to throw it out, bleach and scrub the jar then add it to the dishwasher for the next load… I might try banana vinegar now because I have a whole bunch that is ready to bake with this way I will not add the peels to the compost till later and I might add a nice handful of spearmint to the jar also because it is growing nicely out in the yard……….I want to thank you for all of the important info you share with us here on TH-cam OH and that I have watched your videos for quite a while and for some reason I didn’t subscribe till now I guess I thought I did… Anyway, Stay Safe and God Bless!!
It may have just been kahm yeast on top of it, which is said to be harmless. Some batches just don't turn out well though.
Yes, it was either kahm yeast or even a SCOBY trying to form though adding sugar after two weeks can bring the fermenting process to a stop
Heidi I recently tried making strawberry vinegar on April 20, 2023. I used a 1/2 gallon glass mason jar, filled with strawberry 🍓 caps, spring water, and 1/4 cup sugar. I put a piece of cloth on top with a rubber band. Stirred everyday. After about a week I started noticing a pink film on top. I don’t know what I did wrong. I gave it another week, added another 1/4 cup sugar. No bubbles, but the pink slurry. I dump it out. I just don’t understand what went wrong.
Bad leg break 5 weeks ago. Four surgeries regular antibiotic regimen. Spent time studying fermentation in between operations and rehab sessions. Have my kefir going. Carrots, beets, kraut, and eggs are finished and in fridge. Kombucha is in a quiet place will be another week or two for my scoby to mature.
Vinegar started this morning
Thanks for the education
Great video Heidi!👍
I strained out the banana mojito vinegar last night. It smells So good! 🙂 The 4 pear vinegars are right behind.
Thank you for being a wonderful teacher and lovely person.💜
So did that banana and mojito mint end up smelling and tasting like lemon juice as mine did?
@@RainCountryHomestead I'm wondering that too!.
@@RainCountryHomestead Yes but stronger of vinegar. Probably bc I was canning, freezing and dehydrating so I sorta forgot about it. But it tastes Good! 🙂 I'm really happy with it!
I forgot to say that I strained out my rose & rosemary vinegar too. It's so pretty and I'm looking forward to using it.🙂
THANK you so much for this video... I've tried to make vinegar a couple of times bc of you 🤗 And never had any luck but now after watching this video I'm going to try again. Keep spoiling that new grandson and God Bless you and your family from middle GA 🙏
Hello Heidi! Good grief, that is the thickest scoby I’ve ever seen. Thank u for all the wonderful information. Thank u
I have a video coming out in the near future about SCOBYs and I show how that one looked after straining it out of the vinegar, it was MASSIVE! haha
Thank you Heidi for this great information on making homemade vinegar 🥰🥰🥰
Epic about the banana and mint! Super excited! I HATE buying lemon juice, yuck! Thank you! 🙌🏼🧡
I just strained my apple vinegar and banana mint. They turned out great, thnx Heidi for the consistently great info. It gave me the confidence to try this thanks again!!! 🎉🎉🎉 and Merry Christmas to you and yours 🎄🌟✝️🎁
So very interesting, thank you! I especially enjoyed hearing about your banana mint discovery : )
A very valuable video!!! Thanks kindly for creating this... am blessed to have found your channel!!!
I finally got to watch this! Great info! Ready to try again! 🧡🍂
Floods here cause of rain. Still: God is good. Overwhelmingly good. I want to thank you for your teaching how to make vinegar. I followed your description and have made vinegar with roses, lavender, camomile and use it for cleaning and hair-'soap'. Also I had cacao-bits left over and thought to give it a try. It looks and smells good: for baking later.. Also with mint, which is a fine soft vinegar and with a combination of raisins and basil another one. All fine. So thank you very much for sharing and uploading. With greetings from the Netherlands, Sunny day!
I have a big bag of dried mixed fruit and I wondered if I could make vinegar from that. I’m sure it would be perfect I’m just not sure if I add sugar or not. I make lots of apple vinegar - raw, and i drink it. 😋
Making pear & lemon vinegar thanks for video. Will let you know how it turns out. 😊
The more covid restrictions, the more I become more self sufficient. I really enjoy your videos.
For some reason, this ended up in my Held For Review folder. I am wondering if it is just because you used the word "Covid"? Social media is getting out of control. At last I was still able to approve it so it shows! :)
Sorry wasn’t thinking about that.
@@deplorablecbblock1080 No, don't be sorry, I was just mentioning it because I thought it was strange. I see youtube do weird stuff like that and it makes no sense
With the scraps of vinegar, I grind them, use it for cleaning dishes or sink etc.. As always, lovely video with lots of information. Thank you
My apple & herb vinegar turned out wonderfully! Now I have apples that will go into another batch. I need to move up to a bucket to make it though. 1/2 gallon jars just don't hold enough. I make a mess when I stir 😁
💚&🌞
It ain't right if it ain't messy! haha
Wow! I learned so much. I am excited to get started. Year: Jan 2023.
Aha, happened to my oregano vinegar, it was fine, bottled it, then I wanted a different bottle for it and found it was no longer sour, not at all, like colored water, no mold either. Guess I will use it to water my plants😂
Wow wow wow wow! I like your videos. You explain very well. I'm going to learn a lot from you. Thank you very much for sharing.
I’m finally making my first batch, thanks to you. I’m excited to see how it turns out. Apple pear is what I made.
I just made lemon mint vinegar so amazing thank you so much for sharing God bless you and your family
Heidi, I’ve had my apples brewing since 10/20/22. It is still real bubbly and doing great. When do I strain the apples? I’m having so much fun making different vinegars. Just haven’t completed any yet. Once I know the complete process, I will feel much better. I feel like a mad scientist.😂 learning so much from you. Thank you! 🙏♥️
some people strain it by now but I do not bother until it is done. If it is still fizzy, it is not finished yet. Once it goes flat, taste it and see if it tastes like vinegar and then you will know
@@RainCountryHomestead Thank you so much, Heidi 🙏💗
I believe she said it is done when the bubbling stops. Then she waits one more week before straining.
@@lauracrandall3439 no, it is not done when the bubbling stops because at that point it is mostly alcohol, it still will need two more weeks for the alcohol to turn to acetic acid
Oh Heidi du bist eine so fleissige Frau😊.Danke für dein Video❤
I have tried to make banana vinegar several times but it gets slimy. All my other vinegars have turned out great! (apple, peach, pear, mint, basil, bell pepper, cucumber, kiwi, prickly pear, floral, and a "hair" combination) Any suggestions? I love your videos! I have learned so much from them. Thank you for sharing your wisdom!
Not sure what to tell you on the banana vinegar, are you using only the peels? That is all I use in mine and they always turn out great. One of the most dependable ones I have made
Thank you for taking time to share your knowledge! I appreciate your time sooo much!! Looking forward to making our own vinegar!
Hi,I'm trying to make vinegar, I made BlackBerry jam but had lots of pulp and pips left so I checked your video and fingers crossed I'll have vinegar, it's bubbling away.
Thank you! Had no idea about floral vinegars! Just doing apple scrap. Glad to know when its done I dont have to refridgerate!
Thank you so much for all your wisdom and info! Is there a nutrition, probiotics, or other difference (besides what you start with) in the apple vinegar and acv? I love all your ideas and ingenuity! 💜
The benefits of apple vinegar and ACV would be the same. Your other vinegars will also have many similar benefits but some will be a bit different depending on the fruit and herbs used but they will all be probiotic
@@RainCountryHomestead thank you!
@@RainCountryHomestead can I make vinegar this same way, using beets or potatoes??
@@brittanyraye7875 Yes but you may need to add more sugar than you would with fruit.
They changed it again now subscribed ty don't wish to lose your valuable information ty ty.
You can read thoughts, Heidi! I just started a new batch of apple vinegar 10 minutes ago :D I think, I'll start a citrus vinegar soon.
Do you use it for cleaning as it is or is it too concentrated and needs to be mixed with water?
Thank you for all the wonderful videos! Be save :)
I use it as is myself, I never dilute but some people may want to depending on what they are using it for
Thank you very much! I'm on my second batch of trying to make blueberry vinegar, both times failed- sounds like I did not put in enough sugar. Thank you very much for the tips! Will try it again~ third time's the charm after all!
Thank you, Heidi. Rewatching the video today. I’m making apple butter and applesauce, so I’m using the scraps, peels, cores and ends to make vinegar. Not as much actual fruit, but figure it’ll work, right?
Yes, it should work well. Scraps like that are usually all I use anyway when it comes to fruit vinegars
@@RainCountryHomestead all fruits, peels ect...should not be frozen when making vinegar with them AND if I have fruit from store that isn't marked organic, can I still make safe vinegars with it? Also can I use regular granulated sugar?
Very interesting inforrmation
Thank you
Great video! Could you keep banana peels in the freezer until you're ready to start some vinegar?
You could but they would turn black and may make for an unsavory color of vinegar
Wonderful video, I never considered making my own vinegar but you have inspired me. Thank you.
Those jar covers are awesome... What all can the scooby be used for, besides putting into another jar for vinegar please Heidi? Great video & I thank you for your precious time... C ya l8er... Loves & hugs always... 😘 🌹🌈💞🎵🌷🌼🌺💖😆👏👍💫🌟✌ 💛 ☘️

Hi I know this off topic but Im wondering are the soap recipes you showed us ok to use for the private area like intimate wash ? You know what I mean right lol .. you my TH-cam mama lol I’m transitioning my life into a homemade lifestyle
Yes, they are.
You don't need to use soap in your intimate areas. I haven't in years. I'm actually healthier... no more infections nor fungus. I've also changed other things
Thank you for this video.
I make apple cider vinegar but never tried banana or orange for the very reason of only have one fruit peel at a time.
I appreciate the info to go for it and add as we eat 😊
