Common Questions
1. Is making alcohol at home safe?
This is definitely one of the biggest misconception about making booze at home. Making alcoholic beverages at home is just as safe as making eggs in the morning. I actually wrote an whole article on the top 3 misconceptions about making alcoholic beverages at home.

With the home booze kit, you use everyday products like a (2 liter Soda / Pop bottle) to store your booze and natural ingredients (Yeast, sugar, juice) to make your own alcoholic beverages.
It’s a 100% natural and safe process.
2. How long will it take to make my first batch (first bottle)?
Unlike conventional alcohol making methods which takes months to create drinkable alcohol, your alcoholic beverage, whether it is wine, cider or any juice of your choice, will be ready to drink in exactly 4 days!
For example:
You make your first batch on,
Monday at 6pm
Tuesday at 6pm (Day 1)
Wednesday at 6pm (Day 2)
Thursday at 6pm (Day 3)
Friday at 6pm (Day 4)
After 6pm on Friday, you are ready to drink - Right on the weekend!
3. Is the taste any good?
Since you are using natural ingredients, your drinks will taste better then anything from your local liquor store has to offer. The drinks created with the ‘Home Booze’ method are delicious and they go down smooth. Using natural and fresh ingredients do nothing but enhance the flavor of your drink - regardless of what it is. Drink natural, drink healthy.
4. Can I leave my bottle(s) to sit (Ferment) more than 4 days?
Yes. In fact, the longer you let it sit the higher the percentage of the alcohol will be. Some of our customers have experienced up to 16% alcoholic levels.
Plus you can re-use the yeast if you are making the same drink for a whole another batch.
5. Should I use freshly squeezed juice or buy it?
Using freshly squeezed juice is definitely healthier., but you are also encourage to liquid juices from your local grocery stores. Juices that come in those 2 liter and 1.2 liter cartons.
Only use juice already in liquid form as its properties are very easy to mix with the Home Booze Method and will give you the best results possible.
6. Will I go blind from drinking home made alcohol?
When yeast is mixed with sugar, it creates a natural compound called ethanol. Ethanol is the alcohol found in all drinkable beverages. In fact, ethanol is just a scientific term for drinkable alcohol. It is methanol that is dangerous.
Methanol is a colorless, odorless, poisonous volatile inflammable liquid obtained by the destructive distillation of wood.
So with the ‘Home Booze’ method, its impossible to create Methanol at all and therefore you will never loose your precious eyesight - it’s outright ridiculous to even consider that.
7. Is yeast safe to drink or eat?
Yes. Yeast is 100% natural. Yeast is not only found almost in every food (Especially fruits) but even in our own body.
8. I have some more questions, can you answer them for me?

9. What percentage of alcohol can I get in 4 days?
You will get 8% to 12% per 2 liter PET bottle. If you leave it for a day or two more, it jumps up to 14%!
10. Can I measure the alcohol percentage some how?
To measure the alcohol percentage of your bottle, you need something called a hydrometer. A hydrometer is a floating gauge that measures the specific gravity of liquids compared to water in order to determine the likely alcohol content.
11. Is making your own wine or alcoholic beverages at home legal?
Yes! Making wine at home is 100% legal as long as you are not using distilling equipment (Used for Vodka and etc) and are not selling any of your own home made wine.
Plus if you currently have a home brewing or wine making store in your city, province, state or country, making booze at home is legal in your area.
