Anybody into home brewing or wine making?
Theres way too much natural ingredients out here not to really.
I did meet some peeps in Nigels bar on the front near the museum when i did a funeral a while back ( I;m the Trumpet Player who does them in the Fethiye area)
No one got back to me, but seems a shame not more people trying out as every thing can be got here even some of the chemicals and most of the stuff can be subsituted by natural ingredients anyway.
Anything can be made ie fruit wines, turbo ciders, beers, lager, port and Mead.
5 ltr water bottles can be used for demi johns and fermenting and old pop bottles for bottling.
Fruit juices in cartons for quick easy wines and turbo ciders, local arpa can be malted and used for beers and lagers ( done 2 x 5 gall batches so far)
Grapes direct off the vine for white and red wines, Mushmulla, fig and pomegrante.
oranges and lemons for citric acid, cup of tea for tannin, yeast - plain old allinsons baking yeast can be used and the local maya too.
Yeast nutrient in the form of Andrews liver salts or similar turkish one from chemists ( at a pinch you can even use marmite!!!)
Anyone miss a real pint of english bitter??
