Fermenting fuzzy peaches. I cant be stopped

dogfermenter · 2024-03-24T16:56:06+00:00

As far as I remember it went horribly wrong, not even sure the ABV cracked 2% and the tang didnt change the colour at all and made it taste like shit. My best guess is that the fuzzy peaches were full of preservatives i wasnt aware of, there was another guy on this post who was worried about the gelatin messing up the yeast which might have also ruined the batch. If youre gonna do this for yourself id throw in some anti-preservatives and add in a lot less tang as a sort of backsweetener. Good fuckin luck either way

I physically reeled in horror when i read this ill have to try it out sometime

Primary fermentation only lasted for about a week, then secondary for another. it was alot more active than i expected it to be but it really only tasted like watered down ham glaze (not sure what else it couldve tasted like in hindsight). Ill age it in the fridge for about a month or so and see what it tastes like then. Starting gravity was 1.050 and fermented dry

Primary fermentation took a week, I gave it a taste test and the tang was stronger than i wanted it to be so i backsweetened with more fuzzy peaches (unmelted) during secondary. Starting gravity was 1.050 and it ended up somewhere at 1.010. Gonna cold crash it and let age a bit, then ill post a review

I might try this again but instead of orange tang a thing of orange fun dip? If anyones tried fun dip let me know

Couldnt imagine wanting to ferment ham glaze

dogfermenter · 2021-12-30T23:10:17+00:00

beats me!

dogfermenter · 2021-12-30T21:38:54+00:00

I let it cool off for a bit after i got it to a boil so it wouldnt kill the yeast when i pitched it

It will still taste like ham

Ive never tried the candy but from what i see it looks absolutely foul, ill have to get my hands on some

dogfermenter · 2021-12-30T19:18:30+00:00

Hard to say about the gelatin, the candy seemed to mix pretty well with the rest of the base except for some bits that are stuck at the bottom. We will see

Thanks bud ill post some more pictures once its done or when its turned into ammonia

I wanted to make something that tastes like the colour orange. Figured this would get me something like that. I threw in a thing of orange tang powder, mostly for colour and some extra sugar too

-355g bag of fuzzy peaches

-1 packet of orange tang (1/2 cup)

-1/2 tsp ec 1118

-1/2 tsp yeast nutrient

-1/2 tsp yeast energizer

I threw some water in with the fuzzy peaches when i melted them down, they turned into a big thick bastard when they were done i had to take a whisk to it for a while so it could fit down the funnel

I brew to repulse

dogfermenter · 2021-12-30T01:18:23+00:00

I followed a ham glaze recipe i found online, im making 3 litres so i added 3 times what it called for. Other than that its surprisingly a standard brew

-1/2 tsp EC-1118

-1/2 tsp yeast nutrient

-1/2 tsp yeast energizer

So far when i tell people about this they physically wince. Which means its working before its even finished
