Pea wine?

[otuatail]

sounds like an interesting recipe unless it is an alcoholic pea soup?

Racked this off again today. Still got a little way to go to finish fermenting. Smells like pea. (in a good way)

Ok, quick up-date

We have been wondering where this horrible smell was comming from. The dogs? maybe a mouse had died under the floor? It had a distinct putrid quality to it, mixed with a delicate bouquet of vomit.

I found the culprit. Pea wine.

I nearly lost my breakfast pouring it down the toilet. It was the consistancy of mucus.

I dont know what happened but I dont think I will try it again. :shock:

Ah well, I'll put it to the bottom of my "crazy stuff" list then, after the milk wine

Damn, I had this down on my "to do" list. Oh well, I'll just leave the "Puking Pea" smiley
:sick:

I am guessing that there was a lot of organic matter suspended in the liquid. Although initial fermentation was rapid, it slowed right down and without sufficient alcohol to preserve it, it just rotted in the jar.

Thats my line of thinking anyway. Been making wines for 25 years and this is the first to fail so dramatically.

You don't know until you try......my tomato wine smelled like a pigs bum pipe :sick:
