Question

If you're not suppose to throw away the bread pulp coffee filter bag, what do you do with it?

Community Answer

You should just throw away as it's honestly of no use after, unless you plan on making another batch. But even then I'd bite that minuscule cost and use another piece of bread.
Question

How much sugar is needed for 250 ml of juice?

Community Answer

Since 250 ml is half of 500 ml, use 37.5 ml of sugar. Just cut the measurements in half.
Question

Is the alcohol non-poisonous, or is it like normal liquor?

Community Answer

It tastes very bad compared to store-bought liquor, but it is still drinkable.
Question

Do I need to vent the lid when letting the bread sit for 8 hours?

Community Answer

Chemically speaking, no. In fact, the opposite is true. In the process of making ethanol (alcohol), oxygen is harmful. Swapping from this rubber band fixed top to an airlock or balloon airlock would be preferable.
Question

How long do I boil the jar in the kettle?

Community Answer

The jar does not go inside the kettle. You simply boil the water and then fill the jar halfway.
Question

How long do I boil the water?

Community Answer

You just need to let the water come to a boil. As soon as it does, you can continue with the process.
Question

Do I have to poor this into another bottle, and if so what's the purpose of the coffee filter?

Community Answer

The coffee filter works as a filter for any other contaminants or unwanted objects in the liquid. It is preferable to do this, or to spend a few cents on actual wine yeast, but you don't have to.
Question

Will juice go rancid if it sits for 10 days?
