I remember an old friend telling me to put a banana skin in the fermenting bucket with wine before you rack it into the demijohn and I can't for the life of me remember why. :oops: Anyone else heard of this?
-
never heard of that before ,but you can use black boiled bananas to clear a hazy wine
-
A reliable source of a-amylase enzymes is ginger and I believe the inside white part of a banana skin.

Banana skins are good for shining black patent leather shoes.

Voroneff's procedure: "The monkey gland would be cut in pieces of about two centimeters long by a half centimeter wide and a few millimeters deep. The surgeon would then introduce two grafts in the scrotum, which he fixed with stitches taken off after eight days." :shock:
Eek no way sounds nasty, :lol:

Simpler to wait until winter in the Highlands - then they simply freeze off without surgery.

Ouch your bringing tears to my eyes, can we please change the subject :lol:

I was going to ask if anyone had heard of spreading active yeast on toast and floating it in a bin full of wine must but I don't know where this thread would end up! :lol: :lol: :lol:
-
But you have :wink:
-
I have heard of that one Seadart, but never tried it, you'd think the soggy bread would make the wine cloudy wouldn't you?
-
My lips are sealed. 8)
-
My ex had a wine recipe book from way back it was like a Mrs Beaton but she took it with her.
I seem to remember it saying use egg shells to clear the wine after the floating of the yeast but I could be wrong. Anyway it was worth posting on here for the fun lol
-
My lips are sealed.
Shame! lol

But.............. I did try something like it years ago and it was no use as a drink but cured a particularly nasty rash on the nether regions. And I don't mean Holland. :wink:

You sure that wasn't yoghurt? :lol: :lol:

The toast trick was a way of top fermenting I think, rather than having all the yeast in the bottom (please don't!)
