haha you cant ferment ---- in the fridge
thats a laxative and nothing more

Re: i bought a half gallon of cider at the local farm market
 

mmm that's not so common anymore but the best kind

course i'm not fond of it once it tastes like vinegar but the fresh ---- is unbeatable

Re: i bought a half gallon of cider at the local farm market
 

give it three-four days to ferment. most of it is prolly already fermented depending when he started it.

if you really want it to be alcoholic, and you think it has a day or two left to ferment. trust me and put in a 1/4 cup of sugar.

Re: i bought a half gallon of cider at the local farm market
 

not to say it wont stop fermenting. it will keep going until the sugar in it is gone.
it simply slows WAY down after 3-4 days, diminishing returns.

Re: i bought a half gallon of cider at the local farm market
 

i've had it 3 days i think (now 4 on EST timezone) and it formented on it's own

Re: i bought a half gallon of cider at the local farm market
 

put the sugar in it and shake it everyevery time you go by it (just a quick slosh like after you piss. not getting a spray can ready for action)

dont open the top for two days. if you shake it real good on the third day and there's no sugar left. plan on not driving.

Re: i bought a half gallon of cider at the local farm market
 

yeah im thinkin about doing that with the quart that's left, it's tasty as ---- and feels like youre drinking jello for how thick it is

Re: i bought a half gallon of cider at the local farm market

lager beers are fermented at low temps. Thats what makes them a lager.

Re: i bought a half gallon of cider at the local farm market
 

Hah.

My dad was telling me about being in Iraq and letting the canteen of welch's grape juice sit out to ferment.

He said he had a nice big canteen full, and it disappeared one day :1

Re: i bought a half gallon of cider at the local farm market
 

It would work much better if you added a bit of sugar and some brewing yeast.

Re: i bought a half gallon of cider at the local farm market
 

Hard cider is where it's at. Buy a ton, distill it and make apple jack 8)

Re: i bought a half gallon of cider at the local farm market
 

yeah but they add ---- to it yeast or w/e to make it ferment

i still dont see how plane cider will ferment in a ------- fridge.. unless you got ripped off and someone sold you 3 week old ----

x2 on this being nothing more than a homemade laxative

Re: i bought a half gallon of cider at the local farm market
 

non-pasturized drinks contain naturally occuring bacterias/yeasts on the fruit, which when are mashed, are in the juice. this is the same way fruit forments in the wild

Re: i bought a half gallon of cider at the local farm market
 

I don't know where the laxative things comes from but Yes it needs yeast to ferment. There is naturally occurring yeast floating around in the air, so it will eventually ferment from that. Fermenting in the fridge will just take longer. I would suggest using berwers yeast so you know it will turn out fine. You could easily get a gallon of cider(no preservatives) from the store, toss in a one dollar packet of dry brewers yeast in, and let it ferment and get booze. No guarantee on taste though.

Re: i bought a half gallon of cider at the local farm market
 

yeah, you for sure need some yeast in that ----. yeast and corn sugar (or table sugar), both of which I have spare of. pay for shipping. lmk.
