    If you aren't in a tropical area/don't have access to fresh pineapple without pesticides, be sure to buy some starter yeast since there may not be enough natural stuff to get a good ferment :)

    • @VeryGoodDrinks
      @VeryGoodDrinks  2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Agreed, if you can’t find organic pineapples you can totally use commercial champagne yeast with probably very good results.

      Hey guys i'm in the Italian Alps foot-of-the-mountain area, right now it's still a cold spring climate year, 15-25°C night-day temperatures. Organic pineapples are too expensive. But we do find 'overripe' ones almost for free (they're supersweet and i love them).
      So: i'm trying now a 'reverse tepache': i dtiched the peel (still squeezed/crushed the pulp that stay stuck cut on it - by hand - it quas fun hehe)
      But basically i trashed the peels, and used only the pulp. Because it is already sweet and watery, i've done half fruit (about 1 kilo) - 50 grams sugar - 1 litre water. Basically it's one part water for each one part fruit pulp.
      I'm doing two batches/buckets with 3 halves of fruit: 3+3 = 6 litres each.
      In one, i've added some old baker's (NOT beer's which might be too acid in the end) yeast.
      24h now (since yesterday) and both are rolling well, some bubbles and foam; the yeasted one is kinda crazy, superfermenting and a fantastic smell!
      Today i'll skim the foam (kham yeast which i read somehwere has to be removed, off-taste) and can't wait, men!
      Cheers!

Started the first fermentation earlier today and I think it's going to be good because I didn't wait for the pineapple to get to dried out on the outside this time around. Did not have cinnamon sticks or star anise today so I just used some cloves some allspice and a little bit of black peppercorn

    Thanks for such great instructions 🌟
    Is the granulated sugar necessary to add? Just want to keep the sugar levels lower… fruit naturally has sugar so I’m wondering if the ferment could still work with the natural sugars of the pineapple. Or maybe can add coconut-water or like kiwi juice instead of granulated sugar? Or worst case honey. I’d rather just keep it 100% fruit. What are your suggestions?

    • @onequeen411
      @onequeen411 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Yes the sugar Will be used to feed the yeast so it will have less sugar in it by the time you drink it

    • @jeejbeej
      @jeejbeej 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Honey is also mostly sugar so that wouldn't make a difference. But like the other commenter said, the sugar is consumed by the yeast and converted to alcohol. If you wouldn't add any, all the sugar from the pineapple would be consumed and you'd probably get a very sour drink!

    • @VeryGoodDrinks
      @VeryGoodDrinks  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      As others have correctly stated, the sugar is converted to alcohol and CO2 so once the fermentation has gone on for some time, the sweetness we lessen. You can totally do these fermentations with the natural sugars present in the fruit! All natural! However, the added sugar in this recipe help get a more active ferment and a higher alcohol level. Hope this helps, thanks for the comment. Happy fermenting! 👍

      Hey man in Italy i can find only pineapples teated with pesticides on the surface so i used the pulp NOT the skins, but it has more sugars and water already.
      The fruit should have about 10% natural sugars (google...), so as i already have some 100 g sugars i added only some 25 grams of my sugar by any kilo of fruit pulp.
      And 1 litre water each.
      So i've done: 1.5 pineapple fruit (pulp not skins) + 1.5 water + 25 g sugar (= one full tablespoon)
      It's working well to me, it's all i can say, hope it helps :)

      You can totally use berries! They should have their own natural yeast as long as they were exposed to pesticides.

Hope this helps. Happy fermenting!

    • @VeryGoodDrinks
      @VeryGoodDrinks  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      So excited to hear you tried this!
      For question 1, if you decide to do the second bottled fermentation you can leave that in the fridge unopened for a few weeks (maybe longer but we haven't tried). Once you open it you will want to drink it within a few days, just like you would fresh juice or wine.
      2. You will know the tepache is working in the the first fermentation when you see bubbles (usually within the first few days). This means the yeast is alive and eating the sugar. When you burp the container you should hear a hiss or pressure releasing. In the second fermentation you want to look for signs that the pressure is building. This is why we like to use the plastic bottles so we can see/feel the pressure building in the bottle. You can also usually see very small bubbles as well. It definitely takes a bit of practice so if this batch didn't turn out great, don't be afraid to try again!
      I hope this helped! Feel free to hit us with more questions.

      A neat add on for 1 is that its unlikely to ever make you sick, if you keep it in the fridge it slows the fermentation down to nearly zero and the acidity and alcohol combination make for a drink that never goes bad in the true sense of the word. So give it a taste, if you still like it then drink it.

      Thanks! You can leave it in secondary for quite awhile although the longer it sits the more of a bomb it’ll become. Sometimes letting it sit can allow the flavors to meld a bit more. I’d suggest cold crashing in the fridge to
      allow all the gas to dissolve into the liquid. You can keep it there u til your ready to drink it 🫡

      We find using old soda bottles are best as they are designed to withstand higher pressures and won’t leech any micro-plastics into your ferment!

      I don’t think this will work, you need a tight seal that can handle lots of pressure build up. Hope this helps!
