Im new to the computer thhing but have been makin juice for years. I found this site to deal with others like me.being new i felt obligated to do my part and add something i like to do this time of year. Not sure where a recipe Like this should go so excuse me if it belongs elsewhere.
OLD PUMPKIN HOOCH
Start this recipe as soon as you see pumpkins along the side of the road
1- start like your carving two jackolantern but dont cut out the faces.
2- fill them half full of brown sugar and half with cane sugar.
3-activate some yeast to start things off and put the plugs you cut out back onthem.(recipe said seal with parifin wax but i never have)
4- after one week on the front porch it will start to get soft so poor contents of the two into 1 more cleaned out pumpkin and let stand for a week.
5-Repeat step 4 untill the mash stops workin
6- poor into 5 gal. Bucket and add nutmeg cinomon and wood smoking chips.
7-after a month of that strain, sweeten( if desired) and bottle.
(new twist im gonna try this year - use champagne bottles and champagne yeast)

This juce gets much better after it sits for a year...or longer if you can keep yourself from it.
