Years ago elderly neighbor used to make this to be enjoyed in the summer months. No one bothered to ask for the recipe. Your recipe is the closest to what I experienced in terms of clarity and taste. I long to taste this wine once more.

You can boil the green corn husks and silks and get a very strong flavor. tastes more like fresh corn than the corn itself.

This was a great video. I'm still a "young" brewer, 2 years in and I just started a corn mead back in January. I used the kernels instead of the cobs and plan on adding some habenero to it this weekend. It was inspired by your group collaboration last year. Thanks for all the great videos.

This was so interesting! I won’t be making this anytime soon as it would take me a VERY long time to collect enough corn cobs for this brew. But if at some point I were to find myself in a position to do so I definitely would. I never used powdered wine tannin in all my years of home brewing (30-ish years), always relying on the tannins in fruit skins or tea and later on the tannins from oaking as a more recent development until I won a mead making kit. Following the “have it, might as well try it” frame of mind I used some in a mead that was a little blah. Boy, did it make a difference! Nice perk is that it helps clear as well. ☺️

I appreciate the hard work you put into these videos! Another great one, by the way! Is this something you would consider oaking or using cinnamon in? On that subject, in another one of your videos you mentioned tinctures being a good way to introduce flavors into your wine or mead. A while ago, I bought some Hungarian Oak and French oak, and after boiling them for about 10 minutes with just enough water to cover the oak, I put the wood and liquid in a half gallon jar. It was about 1/2 full, and I filled it the rest of the way with vodka. I let it sit for about a month, but I tasted it a few times during those months. I have since decided I want to continue using this method. The results are very good, I think. Have you tried something like this before? Thanks again!

Toasting the corn cobs and carbonating your next batch might make this more like a beer than a vine. Adding sumac instead of lemon juice would add a more complex tangy spicynesse as well an acidic flavor like the lemon.

Great video! I have a half-related question: You used lemon juice in secondary but got it very clear. I followed your skeeter pee recipe last summer and it turned out amazing. However, it never cleared up (used EC1118 and bentonite in secondary). Do you reckon that pectolase would be required to achieve such a clarity?
@DointheMost
@DointheMost 2 жыл бұрын
Pectinase is good for lemon juice, definitely use in primary if you have it on hand. If I recall the original Skeeter Pee recipe, it uses sparkolloid to clear it up. Given enough time, mine will always clear on its own. Given enough time. Haha. Happy brewing!

I'm only guessing here, but if you used field corn (which just doesn't have as much sugars in it to start with) it might be wise to use a lot more kernels and maybe not so much of the cobs themselves. Field corn is generally a lot less expensive though, and you can get it any time of year. So that might work out just fine? EDIT: bear in mind that whiskey/moonshine and even many vodka distillers almost always use field corn, and they seem to get up to around 10 or 12 percent potential alcohol before distilling without a problem. So.. yeah, I'm confident it can work. It's just a matter of how much actual corn you start with, I think.

Hey, I have tried it four times. The last batch was pretty decent but it still had a little of that “tomato breath” taste on the exhale. If you plan to try it, here are a few tips: Don’t use canned paste, sauce, or tomatoes. Use either some apple juice or grape juice to give it some body. Expect to have a lot of lees- like half. Light oak is a nice addition since it can come out like a Chardonnay. I thought it would taste better after aging, but I think it was better young every time. Good luck! 🍀
