I puréed some overripe bananas, let them ferment for a few days now I’m straining the purée to get the juice out.

 

[Glyptofane]

Oh god... you could have just used them to make banana bread.

It doesn't taste nice, don't try it.

I think I puked a bit in my mouth
Dont worry though, I swallowed back

The smell must have been killing you. Why did you decide to do this?

 

[H1B1Esquire]

Why would you do such things?

You need bread and oranges to make jailhouse juice, affectionately known as Hooch.

not the same

You can use chewed potatoes as well. The amylase in your saliva hydrolyses the starch in the potatoes to create simple sugars which yeasts ferment creating alcohol. Any starchy plant material can be used eg. rice, sweet potatoes, etc..

What are you talking about? I simply wanted to try making the tonic of endurance.

What did you learn???

How to hydrolyse polysaccharides the old fashioned way. You can also use grow the mould aspergillus oryzae on the starchy food (normally rice or soybeans). This is how sake and soy sauce are made.

I left it ferment for a while longer and now it’s become banana vinegar. The pale layer at the top is not due to sedimentation but it’s actually a mother of vinegar.

I made myself a banana-chocolate-strawberry-mango smootie.
That was delicious.

Are you going to make sake with it then?

I once read a recipe for prison alcohol and that used canned fruit which had been left out in the open for a few days to catch the yeast, then sugar and fruit juice was added to it. I've never been to prison before but it's pretty safe to assume that they'll make do with whatever they can get. Fresh fruit is ideal because it already contains sugar and yeast.

You're boring.

Sake is made by growing the mould aspergillus oryzae on steamed rice. You then do some other shit to it that I don't remember off the top of my head.

Well do you having anything planned for it? Since you went to all that work of keeping it and putting up with its stench you must have something in mind for it. Also do you other plans to do this to other things in the future?

Yeast and bacteria cultures are freely available online and not particularly expensive iirc. Might wanna try those instead of rotting a banana
