At school I saw the formula with yeast and glucose = co2 and ethanol etc...and i wondered...
So I bought some pure white grape juice and shoved a sachet (7g) of bread yeast in. Added a small spoonful of glucose energy drink powder in. Waited about 3 days. Opened up my highly pressurised carton of grape juice.
bloody hell. Its lovely. Tastes just like white wine!! On the downside it smells of egg a bit...i was told this was something to do with contamination? I dont think its got too much alcohol in it (bout 5-6%). Does anyone have any really simple recipes similar to this for beverages such as cider maybe? How could i increase my alcohol level?
