Someone said that orange doesn’t ferment well so naturally, I’m going full send. I bought a mandolin and chain mail glove as recommended by someone on a comment from the lemon wine post. That’ll be in tomorrow so today I’m making a yeast starter for the orange brandy.
Lol I think that was me that said it! Best of luck and prove me wrong (or right lol, we’ll see!). It’s all good fun and I’m excited to see the process and result
I wonder if distilling will remove and clean up a lot of the nasty off flavors that typically get produced when oranges ferment.
We shall find out that’s for sure. The distillation I imagine will clean things up quite nicely if it doesn’t go well (basically making essential oils and liquor at once) I’ll definitely post the results of this in (hopefully) two weeks!
