OH! So you don't really put the peppers into the bottle? I was going to do that!

yeah - he's made the wine from the peppers. Now if he can just send me 4 litres I can distill it instead of having to do this:



lol that stuff was clear when i bottled it.
 
Ok, just to make sure, you don't stick the peppers into the fermentation bottle?

And also, I've looked and looked, but still don't know what Lemon Essence is....someone fill me in.

They started doing that in Russia too. Baltica is sold in huge plastic bottles now. Such a polutant and horrible for the beer.

We recycle (forced) here in Germany and thy make sure you do by putting a €0.25 cent refund on each bottle.

Lemon Essence is the oil extracted from lemon peel. Also known as lemon oil. There's a cold pressed variety and a hot pressed one.
 
Thanks for the link, Quad. Ok, I just baught some Pure Lemon Extract. The ingredients read : Alcohol 90%, Natural Oil of Lemon, Water. Will this work? Should I use slightly more than 4 teaspoons for this because it's not 100% oil?
 
Mine is sitting in the basement waiting on the aging...but I was reading up on this....

Don't you need yeast to make wine? Has anyone checked to see if this project has just produced a sugary drink or if it actually has alchol in it?

I wondered the same thing, i have tried Neils wine and i like it, however i don't know if it has alcohol. Bent was going to test it....
 
Just reboiled the mash and then added the yest. I'm using a fruit wine strain....also did the ballon over bottle thing so they don't explode.

I"M SO EXCITED! This stuff is coming along nicely, the yeast is producing a ton of gas! Soon I will have alcoholic chili wine!
 
I'll have to give this a try, I have plenty of 750ml beer bottles from when I make ginger beer and the occasional home brew.
