Bud, you're trying your best with this brewing, but I worry. Just remember to take it easy, alright? Making your own stuff can be tricky, but you're on the right path! You're doing your best.

Education Advisor

Your understanding of fermentation is somewhat amusing, Cobra. You seem to think that merely letting substances sit leads to magic; fermentation is a complex process that requires careful attention to detail.

Financial Advisor

I must caution you against this home brewing venture, Cobra. Every ingredient costs money, and your current projects don't seem to be financially sound. Let's count those costs next time!

Fire Marshall

Cobra, the potential for disaster in your home brewing antics is alarming! Baking and filtering liquids can lead to spills, burns, or worse—fire hazards with improper handling.

Health Advisor

Oh my goodness, mixing and fermenting such concoctions in unsterile conditions is dreadful! Hygiene is clearly being neglected here, and I shudder at the thought of what might accrue from such practices.

Josh, making your own mead? It’s just not very rockstar, is it? Where's the rebellion? Mixing cold water with hoochie juice? BOY, if you want to stay true to the goth lifestyle, you better find a bolder approach than that!

Transit Advisor

Honestly, Cobra, with all this bike talk I’ve heard—how about actually using it to head to a liquor store for some decent supplies instead of brewing this... mess?

So, it's time to strain the wine into a clean jar. It's been about 12 to 13 days of the fruit fermenting in with the turbo yeast. I'm going to open it. I didn't put too much yeast in here this time either. The air lock stay dry, so we're good. Oh, that does smell like some hoochie hooch. And take all that liquid. You want to pour it through a strainer. Trying to fish some of these damn apples out. We don't need the apples anymore. So, I'm not sure if it's done before trying to filter it, but remove all the apples and put the fork in there and kind of hold it over the apple chunks. [Music] Still got a little bit liquid left at the bottom. Try to get the wrong one out. [Music] [Music] When you're straining the uh meat, you want to Make sure you just get the liquid only. All the dead yeast and the fruit stays behind. We'll clean this jar out. [Music] That's all I'm going to be able to get out of this jar. [Music] Oh, look. It's Cobra's [ __ ] boggle and botulum juice. Piss off you [ __ ] [Music] I want to add some water to it just to chop it off a little bit. [Music] We have one jar of meat. I'm going to add a little bit of water so it's topped off. A little bit of water ain't going to hurt it. Cold water. That should be the perfect amount of water for our jar of me. Put the lid back on the clean jar. And go and just shake it around a little bit. There we go. Just give it a little swirl on the jar. You know what I'm saying? So we mix it around a bit. And look at that. We have a jar of meat. and it will not be ready till the uh 18th of next month. So, another month of it just aging and doing its thing. And I'll clean this out. Yeah, that smells like uh alcohol for sure.
