Hope you guys enjoy this one! You asked for it so bust out your aprons and get to brewing. Let us know how your home brewed Pineapple Beer turns out. 🍻 We’re still stuck in Fiji waiting on borders to open, so if you want us to cover something specific please tell us in the comments below. 🙏🏼😍
Lab coats: what yeast? Baker's so LAB? Washing/rinsing off naturally occurring bugs/bad yeast (anything but LAB), yogurt yeasts would do? Bacteria eat sugar create CO2, EtOH, temperature dependent, and the boiled water was what temp? Room temp? Which is? Like a bakers notebook, writing down conditions for reproducing better batches. Just a guess, root beer extract and yeast, I never get temp right.... enough sugar? Isn't the PineApple sweet enough? At least you're not Bored. More kitten videos. Any luck with that adoption? FundRaiser results? Met goal and done?
I know you guys have talked about this before and have a post about it, but as someone looking to move to the nomadic lifestyle I'd be really interested to see an update on how you guys make money! Hope you all are staying well, can't wait to see you guys reunited with curiosity x
Awesome! I’ve been wanting to make ginger beer, now I will. The bloopers reel is a must!! Hey and more Pip adventures. You must realize by the donations that we are animal lovers!
I was going to say the same thing! I cook professionally and have had to use that trick many times when supplies got moved/not brought when they were supposed to be!
Now you’ll be diving into the long journey through malt extract kit brewing, then all grain, then the dark side where you ferment sugar washes to distill, before you know it you have a closet full of enzymes..... (I heard that from a “friend”)😜
Awesome. I’ve also ventured back to fermentation. It’s one Great way to stay on top of gut health which can lead to immunity. (Perfect time to move towards immunity......) Now I’ve got more recipes and ideas for recipes. Thanks a bunch.
I got a son that’s always doing stuff like you guys with drinks, beer , teas ! Etc his always got something fermented! 👍💕😊I really enjoy watching your life’s play out RUclips ! Thank you !
Great info, I will have to try that tepache. If you don't have a knife sharpener and a little patience, you can use the bottom of your coffee mug as a sharpening stone.
Hi guys! I recommend throwing a clove and a cinnamon stick while it ferments for a nice flavor twist. Also switching your bottles to glass if possible. Plastic containers tend to leach into acidic drinks like kombucha and tepache.
We'd love glass but we're working with what we can get. And yes, we know about clove & cinnamon but we prefer to leave it plain for more flexibility when we're ready to drink it. 🍻
Sailors improvisation is a natural progression, thanks for sharing... SV Delos crew ended up with an alcohol distiller from Austrailia, mostly because acoholic beverages tend to be expensive in remote locations.
When I was a kid we made shrubs. Fresh picked berries, sugar and water in a large crockery. These ended up sweet. We made raspbery a lot and black cap because that's what grew around us in the highest quantities. They were really good. We wrote the start date on the calendar. Back when calendars were a thing.
I make tepaché with pineapple (just the skins, I eat the fleshy) brown sugar, water, and peppers. I let it go for a week or so. It gets bubbly,spicy, and a fair good tipsy. Bonus, you can can just refill the water afterwards and make a second batch from the first mix. Also I just burp my jar once a day, keeps it from exploding.
They're beginning to sound like aspiring film directors... seeing how there's some truth that the synchronized drinking would look over-choreographed or "too twinkie" aka/too similar.
@@TheAtma50 Definitely global! Some people just transcend borders and become world 'property' - Einstein, Darwin, Mandela, The Wynns (40 yr old pineapple distillate was involved in the making of this post) But they are great and are global
I am fermentation crazy also. I make yogurt once a week, Sauerkraut once every 3 months, eat fermented soy beans, and soybean paste. Make fermented hot sauce, fermented vegetables, cauliflower, carrots, garlic..........
Natto or Japanese fermented soy beans! Which translated means "Not to" be served unless requested 😆 Iceland has a fermented shark dish that is high up on the avoid if you know what's good you list. Even the locals run the other way at the sight of it.
Jason, about your blunt knife. What you can do to sharpen it is take it outside, find a kerb, or a large stone, and just slide the knife along the surface of the kerb or stone a few times. You will be quite pleased with the result.
It's encouraging to see you guys still producing fun videos in the midst of this worldwide lockdown. It's unfortunate you can't see more of Fiji, however. It's a spectacularly beautiful country, as I'm sure you know, once you get away from the usual urban centers. Here's hoping things open up soon for all of us. Stay safe and healthy and don't stop making these excellent vids.
You are both a bright breath of fresh air in these crazy times. I feel I have travelled the world with you and have enjoyed every moment. I am amazed at how long you both can hold your breath under water. How long exactly are you holding it anyway? It seems really long. Since discovering your channel I got a tortilla press and am making fresh tortillas with my girls. .
Great video. I'll try it this summer as soon as pineapple prices are a little more reasonable here (Newfoundland). I am a great fan of fermentation. I have fairly bad IBS and was in extreme pain on and off for years. About three years ago I started fermenting/preserving our own veg's and while I still get gut attacks their frequency has dropped drastically. Never mine that I love most pickled anything. I would enjoy knowing what else you pickle and how do you slow it down in the tropics.
That is so much fun. I would be interested in learning about local food and drink that I could make from the varied cultures you gave visited and learned from along the journey.
Glad to see you guys enter the world of brewing. It's so much fun and easy to do. See you when this is all over. Our boat is getting refitted slowly but in the meantime, brew on with curiosity!
If you're feeling adventurous perhaps you'd like to try distillation, depending on what alcohol level you've got your fermentation up to - if it's up to commercial wine strength, say 11 -12% or more it would work, probably not worth it if below that. It's not the Kentucky-style distillation, which is probably illegal, but on the same principle that alcohol has a lower boiling point than water, it has a higher melting point - so you freeze your brew. Get a clean plastic bottle, decant your brew (minus pineapple chunks, etc), filling the bottle three-quarters or so. Then bung it in the freezer until it's solid. Then take it out, upend it with the cap off. A liquid will run out leaving just clear ice. You may have got something up to liqueur strength, say the low 20% of alcohol. It may or may not be to your taste, but it's fun to try. I did it when I was holed up in Kuwait 25 or so years ago. I thought it would be nice to brew a nice sparkling white wine, so I got some cartons of apple juice and sugar, and scrounged some yeast off one of the many skilled home brewers that I met there. I must have vastly overestimated the amount of sugar, because the fermentation went on and on, in the end I had to put the container in the fridge to stop it - and ended up with a gallon or two of rough cider. It really was potent, probably approaching the limit at which yeast will tolerate alcohol, say 15%+ but made a good mixer with tonic water. I went on from that to freeze distil some of it, and that tasted really firey, although it was probably no more than 25% alcohol. Happy days.
Awesome! Looks like something to try soon! I am glad you two are so curious! So many people have to wait until late in life to follow their curiosity. I am - online right now and hopefully in person in about 3 years! All the best on your adventures!
I am absolutely interested in videos like this. We're still staying at home ourselves and appreciate hearing about home experiments to try, especially when hanging out with you two, who ( not to sound weird in scary, stalker way ), feel like old friends. 😎 Stay safe...and curious!
Love this video. We are in the process of moving to our new house but as soon as things settle down, I’m going to attempt this. We love pineapple so this should be great. Thanks Niki and Jason for your videos.
Awesome you guys! We literally just got done making a whole episode on pineapple Tepache! Love love love. 🍻 Try mixing in some beer or like you said some rum. Stay curious! 😁
@@FermentationAdventure On Eleuthera, the tradition was to top it with gin. As little as a tea spoon or as much as you desire. It is an aeromatic more than a kicker.
Looks good! When I was a kid, my parents would male large jugs of wine. I remember the balloons getting big. All the containers were fermenting in our garage. One night there was a loud exploding sound. One of the containers exploded, the balloon, and neck of the bottle shot through the inside ceiling, and through the roof outside.
Excellent episode. I'm a home brewer (beer, mead, hard cider, hot sauce, coffee... ok that last one isn't fermented, but I also roast)... welcome to the yeasty addiction. If you get into beer, wine, or cider sanitation becomes important. I'm going to have to try these recipes.
My high school buddy & I tried to collect the liquid from the corn stalks We placed funnels in 9 glass gallon bottles.in the base of the silo. The stalks picked up in the field & blown up into the silo. The con was fed to his dairy cows in the following months & eventually the gallon glass jugs with the funnels became visible.All that was left were broken glass bottles & funnel. his dad laughed at us as we cleaned out the silo & made it ready for more corn stalks. So much for fermentation & corn licker.
I am hoping you all can leave soon. I know you will enjoyed it happens. I started on May 1 traveling. I may had been a little early. I have just put up my first two RVing videos.
Thanks guys... a great quarantine project for me and my girls. Could you let us know the results of any longer-term / more fermentation experience may have gone? And perhaps most importantly, at what point (approximately) did you find it begin to lose its family friendliness?
You guys are fun, informative and inspiring. We are currently selling off everything to downsize and are thinking about following in your footsteps. I've watched many of your videos and have learned a lot. Not enough to be scared away yet. This little video gave me a much needed chuckle or two. Getting a bit anxious to see you back on blue water again. What's the latest info? Is there light at the end of the tunnel?
Since you have time, an unbounded curiosity and dull knives make a strop ( or a semblance thereof). If there is a machine shop anywhere around get some polishing paste or go to the grocery store and get anything like sink cleaning compound then find the oldest, widest cowhide belt you can find and saturate the rough side with this paste and start honing :) Fine beach sand in a slurry of suet or lard might be a good compound to start with on very tightly woven local cloth mat. I guess you can tell that I like sharp things and this equates to safe things. Stay safe!
@@gonewiththewynns 🐾🐾🐱 I thought it would be too sad to watch...good morning from gloomy Florida! I miss the water...on your end and mine...BUT guess what's going on the screen....lol...you are by FAR the best cruise channel...funny...bright...just easy watching in this crazy world! Hope you guys have a great day started no matter where you are!
If you have a dinner plate in your apartment that is glass or china and the bottom edge is a little rough. You can use it to sharpen knives. Just drag your knife edge back and forth across the rough edge of the plate as you would if you had a real knife sharpener. It does work.
You have the most well organized website I have possibly ever seen!! I have a question about the video where jason shows us his receipt scanner... I can't find it again and wondered what model/make it was and if you recommend the program to use with it?
Oh gosh that was so long ago they may not be making that model anymore. If receipts are all you need to scan, I would suggest going to the Play Store or Apple Store and searching for PDF apps. There are quite a few free ones that will convert pictures to PDF files for you. In fact I think a Google phone will do it outright as an option. Hope that helps. Curious Minion
Yay! Thanks guys! I haven’t got any of these ingredients but I’m gonna try to make this with another fruit (soon we’ll have lots of cactus fruits!) and no added yeast. Curious what will happen! 😜 Thanks for the giggles.
I feels like we are all on our own (or small collective) little islands. Thanks for sharing what you are up to on yours. On my own I've been building a breadboard computer. It is a fun learning project but not so tasty.
Terrific. Thanks for sharing. You really are on real time. 5/23 marking one he drink...I’m watching 5/24. Time difference makes it almost day and a half, , any news in Curiosity?
interested in what type of yeast. I've used brewers yeast = room temp an official top fermenting yeast = at room temp = (2-4 weeks) ale or bottom fermenting =good at refrigerated temps (3-4 weeks) = lager Further understanding I will send you the book "The Complete Joy of Homebrewing"
I think they are using baking yeast for this because there's no "homebrew" store where they are. In the recipe on the blog the mention baking, brewers or champagne yeast. Use whatcha got! www.gonewiththewynns.com/fermenting-tepache Curious Minion
Great video, guys! Once lockdown ends and we can leave our hotel, we'll be making Pineapple Beer :) Thank you for the recipe! 11:08 what is a color checker?
Yes!! Love it! We make ginger beer all the time and pineapple Tepache ROCKS! Love the funny banter you guys always keep on camera. You definitely live up to the Curiosity. 😄
I love pineapples. I have grown my own here in Canada from a top like the one you discarded. It would be a heck of a lot easier to do in Fiji but I don't think you want to be there that long to wait to grow your own! Thanks for the idea for what to do with the only part I I would compost- the skin! The core I would cut into slices, freeze and use as ice cubes in drinks. If you can find a 'pineapple corer' it will make the job easier of preparing the fruit.
Great video guys, I love how you’re adapting to your situation. Keep this type of content coming. It’s not sailing or visiting new places but it’s a lot of fun to watch ! Gonna have to try the pineapple beer. How much longer is Pip going to have to wear the cone ? That cute little kitten would fit right in on Curiosity. We miss Singa and Cleo...
Yea, we miss Cleo and Singa too. Pip seems like a reincarnation of both of them: She pulls the towels onto the floor and sits on computers like Cleo, but she attacks and plays hardcore like Singa. She is the best thing that’s happened to us in isolation. Her little spot is almost healed. Hopefully by the end of next week we can get an update on her wellbeing. 😻
So good seeing videos in real time and not 3 months old like some sailing videos. I know not always possible but its great to think you just did it. I'm off to make some Ginger beer. Haven't done it for 50years lol. As said so many times.... you have inspired me. The yacht will have to wait. HaHa
We really appreciate your CURIOSITY! There are soooo many WONDERS in our beautiful world to discover, learn about, try....curiosity makes life fascinating! :-) Thanks for sharing how you make "tepache"... looks & sounds delicious! The ripe and vibrant pineapples you have to work with look ahhhhhhhhhhmazing! We've had some fun fermenting water kefir & kombucha, along with making milk kefir from a culture... cheers to always being curios!....and fermentation :-)
Great video you guys! Try sharpening the knife by moving it across the bottom of a coffee mug or cup. It may sharpen the knife so so. A little sharper at least. Pip is looking full of beans. What a cutie! See you on the next one.
Greetings and salutations for Port Townsend, WA, ST. I'll bet years ago when you started your show you never thought you'd be in quarantine creating Pineapple-Cider tutorials from Fiji ! :D
You may be isolating away from your home on the sea but I’m still loving the updates and you are still producing awesome content! Keep up the great work :)
As a former brewery owner & the head brewer at Stone City Brewing, I will have to try this.. But 1st a questions: What type of yeast did you use? I will use a dry wine yeast or champagne yeast on my test batch.. More of a sparkling wine than a beer.. For it to be a beer it has to have malt in it.. But hey, let's have some fun!!!
They mentioned not having access to brewing supplies to buy an airlock so I think we can assume it is baking yeast. It would of course work better with some wine or champagne yeast, but desperate times...... 😄 Curious Minion
I was not the least bit interested in fermentation until I watched you two!! 😊 Another great video! 5/23 was my birthday so I am not surprised that was a very good batch!! Off to the store to get a pineapple and balloons!!
The Calico Cat Interlude was a very nice touch; may I suggest you do that with all videos just as long as you retain this cat. It is far better than extensive footage of a cute, albeit slobbering baby from whatsherface, mate.

Here here matey
I wish I saw this earlier. Stage hand Jason coming through with the practical effects was delicious.
And God I love bloopers in the credit reel.
the one part of the pineapple you do not use can be planted in a pot and with some care one year later a new pineapple!
AND if not a new pineapple at least a decent looking green plant like I have growing in a pot near a window right now.
A top from a store bought pineapple will take a lot longer that 12 months. Plan on 24 months, at least.
Now you’ll be diving into the long journey through malt extract kit brewing, then all grain, then the dark side where you ferment sugar washes to distill, before you know it you have a closet full of enzymes..... (I heard that from a “friend”)😜

I guess you can tell that I like sharp things and this equates to safe things. Stay safe!
Nikki and Jason you both are amazing!! Binge watching your sailing videos playlist has gotten me thru this quarantine ♥️
Awwe, thanks for letting us know and for being a part of the crew! 💙💙💙
Love this one too! Omg you've become the backdrop in our living room...and Pip...
Right?!? That darn cat was such a find…she saved us as much as we saved her 🥰
@@gonewiththewynns 🐾🐾🐱 I thought it would be too sad to watch...good morning from gloomy Florida! I miss the water...on your end and mine...BUT guess what's going on the screen....lol...you are by FAR the best cruise channel...funny...bright...just easy watching in this crazy world! Hope you guys have a great day started no matter where you are!
If you have a dinner plate in your apartment that is glass or china and the bottom edge is a little rough. You can use it to sharpen knives. Just drag your knife edge back and forth across the rough edge of the plate as you would if you had a real knife sharpener. It does work.
You have the most well organized website I have possibly ever seen!! I have a question about the video where jason shows us his receipt scanner... I can't find it again and wondered what model/make it was and if you recommend the program to use with it?
Oh gosh that was so long ago they may not be making that model anymore. If receipts are all you need to scan, I would suggest going to the Play Store or Apple Store and searching for PDF apps. There are quite a few free ones that will convert pictures to PDF files for you. In fact I think a Google phone will do it outright as an option. Hope that helps.

Yay! Thanks guys! I haven’t got any of these ingredients but I’m gonna try to make this with another fruit (soon we’ll have lots of cactus fruits!) and no added yeast. Curious what will happen! 😜 Thanks for the giggles.
If it smells ok and tastes ok...then its probably ok. But we’re not experts :)
Really LOVED this episode. Laughed out Loud many times - Jason putting the items on the table was hilarious. Stay safe you wonderful people, and cat.
👍Fun. Thanks for sharing.i love fermenting. It’s so healthy. Glad you both are okay. 🤗💞🤗
I feels like we are all on our own (or small collective) little islands. Thanks for sharing what you are up to on yours. On my own I've been building a breadboard computer. It is a fun learning project but not so tasty.
Such a great way to think of this time of social distancing! 💙💙💙
Terrific. Thanks for sharing. You really are on real time. 5/23 marking one he drink...I’m watching 5/24. Time difference makes it almost day and a half, , any news in Curiosity?
Not since last week....
I use a couple of grapes for the yeast! Works fantastic.
interested in what type of yeast.
I've used brewers yeast = room temp
an official top fermenting yeast = at room temp = (2-4 weeks) ale
or bottom fermenting =good at refrigerated temps (3-4 weeks) = lager
Further understanding I will send you the book "The Complete Joy of Homebrewing"
brewers, im meant bread yeast
I think they are using baking yeast for this because there's no "homebrew" store where they are. In the recipe on the blog the mention baking, brewers or champagne yeast. Use whatcha got! www.gonewiththewynns.com/fermenting-tepache

Not even sailing and you guys still come up with great content! Thanks for sharing.
This is the best dry lander one yet...VERY educational
I have made ginger beer for years. Curious now to try my hand at Tepache. Thanks for sharing!
Been following y'all on and off for 6 years now. Keep up the great videos.
you are such a fabulous team and congratulations on your amazing fundraiser xx
Great vid.......well done I make sour krat while sailing, as you mentioned cabbage try some....
yes we are enjoy
Cool! I have been making Kombucha, similar concept. I want to try your drink now.
Great video, guys! Once lockdown ends and we can leave our hotel, we'll be making Pineapple Beer :) Thank you for the recipe!
11:08 what is a color checker?
Yes!! Love it! We make ginger beer all the time and pineapple Tepache ROCKS! Love the funny banter you guys always keep on camera. You definitely live up to the Curiosity. 😄
Makimg a batch now, 3- 1.5 L bottles. 24 hours in now. Aiming for three days worth of alcohol. Will let you know. Thanks!
You guys are such fun ! Thanks for sharing this.
I love pineapples. I have grown my own here in Canada from a top like the one you discarded. It would be a heck of a lot easier to do in Fiji but I don't think you want to be there that long to wait to grow your own! Thanks for the idea for what to do with the only part I I would compost- the skin! The core I would cut into slices, freeze and use as ice cubes in drinks. If you can find a 'pineapple corer' it will make the job easier of preparing the fruit.
Your literally one of the only things keeping me sane in isolation 😂😂👍 stay safe everyone ❤️
I'm a new British RUclipsr 😊👍
Thanks! Stay safe and stay sane!
@@gonewiththewynns will do 😂😊👍
Great video guys, I love how you’re adapting to your situation. Keep this type of content coming. It’s not sailing or visiting new places but it’s a lot of fun to watch ! Gonna have to try the pineapple beer.
How much longer is Pip going to have to wear the cone ? That cute little kitten would fit right in on Curiosity.
We miss Singa and Cleo...
Yea, we miss Cleo and Singa too. Pip seems like a reincarnation of both of them: She pulls the towels onto the floor and sits on computers like Cleo, but she attacks and plays hardcore like Singa. She is the best thing that’s happened to us in isolation. Her little spot is almost healed. Hopefully by the end of next week we can get an update on her wellbeing. 😻
So good seeing videos in real time and not 3 months old like some sailing videos. I know not always possible but its great to think you just did it. I'm off to make some Ginger beer. Haven't done it for 50years lol. As said so many times.... you have inspired me. The yacht will have to wait. HaHa
YES. Ginger beer is the best! Takes about 4 days here in this heat, but what we like even better is the Ginger Pineapple brew 👍🏻
We really appreciate your CURIOSITY! There are soooo many WONDERS in our beautiful world to discover, learn about, try....curiosity makes life fascinating! :-) Thanks for sharing how you make "tepache"... looks & sounds delicious! The ripe and vibrant pineapples you have to work with look ahhhhhhhhhhmazing! We've had some fun fermenting water kefir & kombucha, along with making milk kefir from a culture... cheers to always being curios!....and fermentation :-)
Great video you guys! Try sharpening the knife by moving it across the bottom of a coffee mug or cup. It may sharpen the knife so so. A little sharper at least. Pip is looking full of beans. What a cutie! See you on the next one.
Sweet and sour made! Tepache made! Success!!! Thanks guys for a fun idea!
Greetings and salutations for Port Townsend, WA, ST. I'll bet years ago when you started your show you never thought you'd be in quarantine creating Pineapple-Cider tutorials from Fiji ! :D
For sure! 😆😆
You may be isolating away from your home on the sea but I’m still loving the updates and you are still producing awesome content! Keep up the great work :)
This is awesome! Gonna have to try it out. Love how you guys are still finding ways to adventure during this time.
Love it, great episode! I would like to see how you make real coconut milk from the coconut.
Love seeing what you guys eat and how you make it!
iv been wanting to try doing mead but havnt gotten around to it. i got layed off so i may try it!
As a former brewery owner & the head brewer at Stone City Brewing, I will have to try this.. But 1st a questions: What type of yeast did you use? I will use a dry wine yeast or champagne yeast on my test batch.. More of a sparkling wine than a beer.. For it to be a beer it has to have malt in it.. But hey, let's have some fun!!!
They mentioned not having access to brewing supplies to buy an airlock so I think we can assume it is baking yeast. It would of course work better with some wine or champagne yeast, but desperate times...... 😄
Curious Minion
That’s pretty cool! It’s like a fun mini science experiment! Thanks!!
Okay. After watching your video on how to brew we are going to give it a try.
I love in the new intro, Nikki is busy working, but Jason is Chambonging!
I was not the least bit interested in fermentation until I watched you two!! 😊 Another great video! 5/23 was my birthday so I am not surprised that was a very good batch!! Off to the store to get a pineapple and balloons!!
Happy birthday!
Nice apt. Nice video you can Doo this on your boat. first IPA s were made by sailers. Thanks stay safe
The Calico Cat Interlude was a very nice touch; may I suggest you do that with all videos just as long as you retain this cat. It is far better than extensive footage of a cute, albeit slobbering baby from whatsherface, mate.
