#peeps wine

On tuesday, I will have a hydrometer. And then I will be able to begin a new phase of personal insanity. I will be making monster peeps wine.

The next Redneck Brewing experiment in line!

It's like the infamous Peeps Wine, only more Swedish. (Plus more...and even more.)

Also, involving fewer undissolved eyes and less lurid color unless I add in some sort of food coloring myself. I did consider basically just using them more or less as a sugar supplement in some nice juice, but nah that felt like cheating. We're going 100% marshmallow rabbit here.

Yes, I actually ordered a kilo box of these poor bunnies mostly to do terrible things to them with hot water and yeast. Getting started a bit late, but hey. I really doubt longer aging would improve the results that much. 😅 The plastic tub should come in handy, at any rate.

These are not bad at all just as candy. I purposely chose the Franssons over a bigger brand because these don't list any vegetable oil or carnauba wax in the ingredients. Just a shit-ton of sugary stuff, gelatine, and a little sorbitol.

They also don't have any fruity flavor like the Cloetta are supposed to, just a more straightforward marshmallowy taste. This may be for the better or worse; we'll see soon enough, once I get my act together to actually mix it up later!

I’m making the cursed wine

I saw the peeps wine post going around and I was compelled to try it. I may need to get more yeast tho, because mine might be dead, and I’m going to try and find the marshmallows we have stashed somewhere to add some bulk to it. Besides that I’m on my way.

I don’t even drink wine. I’m just chaotic.

Fermentation is fun because once it starts going and the bubbles are coming out of the airlock it's like yeah little guys go!

There's a bunch of tiny little guys on my kitchen counter and they're making booze, how neat is that!

[dear-ao3]

every time i drink alcohol and nearly spit it out because it tastes so bad i sincerely wonder how on earth i am related to an entire family of alcoholics

When you stare into the peep juice, the peeps stare back.

I keep getting asked by the other students and lab techs/assistants/professors what the dark bits are. When I tell them they're the eyes, everyone so far has been creeped out.

And I laugh and tell them "They know what we've done, and they judge us for it."

Just got home from watching Deadpool & Wolverine! LOVED IT, and you will too if you:

Enjoyed Deadpool and/or the first 2 Deadpool movies

Love Wolverine

Love the Fox Cinematic Universe (fuck the haters you're not welcome here lol)

Love lots of gory action mixed with a ton of heart

I will happily answer any questions you have about the movie and will give spoilers if you want them, though i will tag my posts 'deadpool & wolverine spoilers' AND hide replies under the cut!

Adventures in peeps wine.

I'm about 4 hours into the process and my biggest regret is not pre-dissolving all of the peeps into the water. Trying to shred them with my bare hands and stuff them all through the neck of the carboy was not fun and resulted in a huge buildup of peeps viscera around the neck of the carboy, so we dissolved the other half of them in hot water (the eyes still did not dissolve!) arguably the more humane of the two fates.

The ones that were not so lucky that I DID tear up and stuff inside quickly became a grotesque white sludge sitting atop the liquid. It didn't take too long before the gas buildup below began to lift the unholy mass upward and it began to ooze through my airlock, clogging the escape of gas and necessitating some panic and change of strategy.

So, things I would already do differently:

-Dissolve the peeps first

-Better measure the amount of peeps needed so as not to require supplemental sugar (should have gone for 3lbs for 1gal of water)

-Start this in the morning so I could keep an eye on it all day..
