Just thought I would share what I have learned so far for future skeeter pee makers... I feel like if we enjoy something we should help each other out. I made a 6 gallon batch without a starter. I rehydrated 3 packets of EC-1118 and scaled the rest of the original recipe for 6 gallons. It took...

Thanks, I have actually had it in a bucket with a lid since it started. I have stirred occasionally to help speed things up. I really am just anxious to get it into bottles!

I followed the original recipe. OG 1.070, right now it is at .998... Do you guys expect that it will get much lower?

Pretty much... I don't usually like to get drunk, but the other day was a really fun time. My own batch is almost done fermenting (It's at 1.000 now) and I can't wait to get it drinkable!

I tried my first batch of pee recently. I am quite impressed. I made it for a friend's graduation party and immediately started a second batch when I racked the first. Everyone that has tried it loved it and everyone that had it drank a little more than they should have in too short of a...

I thought I would share my experience so far with skeeter pee fermentation. A few weeks ago I helped a friend make his first batch. After we were done boiling, I found out that he didn't have yeast energizer or a slurry or starter. We decided to roll with it and we stirred and let it sit for 24...

Well, I never got around to using that yeast cake. I got really busy with a dog rescue and had to spend money elsewhere. I finally put in an order for everything that I need and I ordered 5 packets of EC-1118... I just got a notice saying that the store was out of Wine Yeast Nutrient, so I am...

Thanks for the input. I can't wait to make my first skeeter pee... Hopefully going to get started next week.

I am still having trouble imagining what skeeter pee tastes like. I see so many people say that it is good, but no one has described if it tastes like lemonade, something completely different, if there is a strong alcohol taste or if it is well hidden, etc. Anybody care to share tasting reviews...

Thanks for the responses. I can't wait to see what the big deal with skeeter pee is.

I have a slurry of Montrachet from a batch of apfelwein. Is this a good choice for Skeeter Pee or should I just order a different yeast and make a starter? No one on HBT had an answer for this question, so I was hoping I have more luck here.

Thanks guys! I went ahead and ordered the equipment that I needed. I am either going to start with a riesling or a Pinot noir for my first kit. Can anyone suggest a good one from brewmasterswarehouse(.com)? CPfan, what is it about the no water added kits that is bad? I thought those were...

I asked this question on Homebrewtalk the other day, but I just wanted to get a perspective from people that I would think have more experience with wine. I am looking at kits in the 100-175$ range on brewmasterswarehouse. I want to start a bit of a cellar to have wine on hand for when non-beer...
