tarotangel Posted May 6, 2007 Report Share Posted May 6, 2007 We did make saki and I remember that being hugely honking while it was brewing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peeriebryan Posted May 6, 2007 Report Share Posted May 6, 2007 I made so called 'Saki' once. Mashed rice, rasins, sugar, water and yeast, all thrown together in a big chip fat bucket. Absolutely manky, but did the job.... with no hangover Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaxFusion Posted November 3, 2009 Report Share Posted November 3, 2009 Called Dad wasn't Sterodent was Campden tablets. peeriebryan will see what I can do for a recipe for rhubarb wine for you, no promises but I'll ask Dad and see if he will gie me the recipe. campden tablets are an additive for wine to stop bacterial contamination http://www.simplynatural.org.uk/acatalog/Campden_Tablets_by_Youngs.html the steriliser stuff is a bit different and does smell like strong bleach http://www.simplynatural.org.uk/acatalog/VWP_Sterilizer_and_Cleaner.html the stuff I got fae healthcraft (ages ago) was just called beer steriliser but it's basically the same stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vivari Posted November 8, 2009 Report Share Posted November 8, 2009 I have heard that some former whalers used to add Brasso to their home brew having first filtered it through an unsliced loaf.I would imagine it was a bit rough upon the head the next morning.

MuckleJoannie Posted November 8, 2009 Report Share Posted November 8, 2009 I've heard that there were huge sales of Brasso in certain islands for the same purpose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
