What is important (my conclusions from what I read in various places):
1. Alcohol should cover the fruit by about 1-1.5 cm. Incidentally, this is a problem. because fresh fruit comes up. Then you can submerge it temporarily with some kind of weight (with boiled water!))).
2. Insist only in the DARK and cool. Light damages the drink.
3. Can ferment
4. May get moldy
5. Fruits to sugar are taken 1 to 0.5.
6. Alcoholism is a terrible thing!
Moldy - kirdyk is an idea. Fermented - either drink it in this form (and what? We are not used to it!))), Or stop fermentation by introducing alcohol. To preserve the darkness, you can wrap it with something opaque. Store in a cool and dark place

Matilda_81, thanks for the reminder. From point 6 I agree 100%! I think the problem is the temperature as the closet is dark and there is no air conditioning in the closet. Now I ate a piece of a fermented pear, and drank a teaspoon of what was fermented. Sugar is not enough for my taste. I'm sitting, thinking what to do ???
Matilda_81
Well, either try to add alcohol, or throw a small party today

Take a sip more
Elya_lug
I put in the first pot, but on plain cognac. So far, only a plum, a little apricot and cherry plum, then I'll add something else.
elka34
vedmacckHere my husband comes home from work ... we'll have a sip together. I don’t drink in one person. Girlfriend went to try refused, because I was going to the kindergarten for the child. I will report later.
bukabuza
Elena, you can try to let him finish, just add sugar. It may turn out not a bad fortified wine.
Scarecrow
elka34,

I think it's better to have a drink and put the next one in the refrigerator.
elka34
Scarecrow, started, threw ice, to taste like a tincture. And ideally, what kind of fruit should you taste? Mine turned out to have a strong alcoholic taste, but not sweet at all, is that how it should be? No?
Scarecrow
elka34,

No, it doesn't have to be that way. Something tells me that you are too clever with sugar or it has not dissolved. Pick it up to the bottom, there is no sugar in it? Then it will be clear why it fermented. The taste is sweet (even on the verge of very sweet) with a pronounced and bright fruity taste, the fruit is dense, saturated and for some reason more "alcoholic" than liquid.
elka34
I went and looked, there was no sugar at the bottom. I think sugar is so savory. It happens. Tomorrow I'll put a new pot in the refrigerator. While there are many fruits and berries on the market.
Mary Poppins
The recipe is terribly interesting. I read the whole topic, but did not find a report on citrus fruits. I think they should improve the taste. Has anyone added?
Tanyusha
Mary Poppins, I thought that citrus fruits would clog all other fruits and berries with their taste, so I did not add
Scarecrow
And I, in my opinion, had tangerines, but I don't remember them at all in taste)).

will it last longer than six months?
I report:
I still have last year's pot. True in small quantities (and more berries than liquids).
Eh, we started so well last year, but then we stopped ...
Scarecrow
Alinamama,

And we do something without stopping until the victorious))).
Elya_lug
oh, and we have already drunk part of the pot, it was delicious, we still have to put it on.

Girls, hello! Thanks for the recipe, I have added to my piggy bank of New Year's ideas! I just want to put the pots: apple + plum + cinnamon + blackberry + maybe I'll try to shove the ginger. I still haven't crumbled the gooseberries to the end, I can't collect them anymore - it is prickly, an infection, (although the vitamins from it are awesome) Has anyone added gooseberries (dark) to the pot, how does it later to taste ??? What about wild berries, cranberries, lingonberries?
Scarecrow
yanya71,

I added. I have no idea how to taste, because I have not tried it yet, only this year I added it. And why should he (taste) be bad? Everything will be OK, don't worry. The only thing - do not be zealous with the black chokeberry.She clogs everything with color and taste.

aha, thank you! Already done: apple-gooseberry, and plum-apple-cinnamon-clove! I plan to make another pear. It seems to me that "hard" fruits such as apples, pears should be good.
Loksa
I have added a dark gooseberry, I did not particularly notice its taste in the bouquet. Cherry dominates, maybe something else, but "not making out ..." yet. I only tried a glass and quickly hid it, it may suddenly end before Christmas. Delicious drink and berries. It warms up, but it's not compote for sure.
Scarecrow
Loksa,

I also have a lot of gooseberries in one of the pots. Then I'll tell you, I haven't tried it yet. although it was already washing away))).
Elya_lug
I put a new pot for a couple of weeks, but the poor one: only quince, grapes, an apple
Dance
Scarecrow, dear, where have you been before ??? I only have frozen strawberries and raspberries in the freezer. True, there are apples, grapes, quince ... and ice cream to go or not? I also want this!
Scarecrow
Dance,

I used to be mulberries, called everyone, auk, jumped on one leg))).

Ice cream will do without question. I tried it myself, and others are not a problem.
Dance
Even I haven't seen your legs! Neither one nor the other ... but, I hope, those were not boring tutki with a pot?
Oh, I’m going and I’m talking to myself like that, though with a viper. Our rum is hefty expensive! And we can fix it with brandy, what do you think? A! And kada mona to use compote? Do you have to stand? True, I don't know if it will stand ...
Scarecrow
Dance,

Should stand up to NG minimum. Until then, he simply will not infuse, so do not even pull your greedy hands to him until this moment!

Cognac can be added for flavor. On clean - don't do it. Well, fill it in half.
Dance
Yes? Tady how to do a test, Schaub observe the process? Okay, I'll try to hold the handles. I made cherries like that (for cakes), my friends tried it and stayed overnight, how could it be that after such a cherry behind the wheel? Even if she didn’t even realize that other fruit could be that way too ... Semyon Semyonitch!
But I'll put it, Schaub even BC. d has become ... but the fruit, in theory, should be hard? Well, so that ishsho and the cake was funny?
Scarecrow
Dance,

Yes, they only get denser with me. Even melon and ripe plums / apricots. I thought they would swell and everyone would be like jelly, but it turned out exactly the opposite: dense and biting. Alcohol and sugar draws juice out of them, apparently.
Dance
ABOUT! And mine is nravitstsa! ABOUT!!! Mamanka said that one watermelon was lying around in her basement. If she didn't post it, I'll shove it in the same way. Later. I'll bring Cada. Can I have him? I wonder how it will turn out ...
Scarecrow
Dance,

It will work out fine. My watermelon and melon turned out fine. And Gali too.
ivashechka
Girls! I am reading here about your pots and decided to insert my own five cents, maybe someone will do it). I put a lot of different pots, fruits all individually. About gooseberries is just a song that comes out, and the color and taste mmmm .... We don't eat the berries themselves, we give the chickens, they also need to warm up in winter. For the most part, I make pots of apples, add a tablespoon of fried oak bark (there was no shob tsunga), and vodka, without sugar. All! tasty drink, easy to drink, sweet from apples (we have our own), well, healthy))). The fruit does not creep, it is always tough. And also very tasty from the sloe, just very tasty, and the sloe itself is also tasty, so I eat it! there the stone gives its astringency. In addition to apples, I add sugar to all other pots, but not so much, we don't really like sweet liqueurs.
Loksa
ivashechkahow is that fried crust? You can stay that way and without teeth by eating apples. who am I having fun again?
Elena Kadiewa
Loksa, already kissed the pot?
ivashechka
nope, it is not necessary to eat it for color and it gives the taste of an oak barrel! as if we have aged long-term elite alcohol)))))
ivashechka
it is necessary to strain! and apples again to them, chickens, let them rejoice and give us funny eggs)))
Dance
Ltd! What a booze Tutki went! Scarecrow, Nata, with your light hand, by the way! Oh, where people get drunk and drink chickens for a bunch! Ivashechka, did you apply for a patent for "funny" eggs? Schaub was not intercepted!
tysia
Speaking of birds ... I remembered the story from the tyrnet:

The peasant and his wife, who lived in the village, had geese. And most of all they were hated by their neighbors, because they devoured and trampled almost everything. Once a husband and wife went to the forest and took a plastic bag of wild raspberries there, brought them home and forgot about them, and when they remembered the raspberries they had already sour and fermented. What should I do? They threw it out, and the geese took it and ate it all up.
A man comes out of the house, looked at all the geese as dead lying around. He and his wife decided that the neighbors must have poisoned them. It seems like you can't eat meat, it's poisoned. They took them plucked and took them to the forest, threw them into the ravine. And in the morning, oil painting, the whole village watched as BALD GEOES WITH A HANGER, braiding their feet, go home.
Scarecrow
tysia,

Yes, here and the Internet is not needed. At my great-grandmother's in the village, the chickens were so addicted to cherries from the tincture. They threw it on the compost - and they got drunk))). The grandmother is hysterical, the chickens are all dead, by the evening she was going to pinch, and they oklemalsya, fools))).
ivashechka
her, the patent was not issued, but I want to tell you that in winter the chickens rush rather badly, and so, these bumbled ones push them to egg production: lol: he is a spirits and the birds nra))) within reasonable limits, of course)
Dance
Yoperny theater (as they say here in Odessa), I must tell my mother, otherwise the bastards eat and do not rush!
ivashechka
the magic pendel (in the form of hrukhtov) has not been canceled yet)))
Loksa
Is it too late to fry oak bark and toss it into a pot? Yes, and there are no other fruits now, maybe we still have time to add aroma-light
ivashechka
No, it's not too late! Two weeks is enough for insisting. Fry)
Loksa
ivashechka,
tatlin
Thank you! for the recipe, put two different ones in September, stand in the cellar at the dacha, so I decided to try it, stuck my nose, smells delicious, licked a little, very sweet, what can I add?
Scarecrow
tatlin,

It will be very sweet. Because sugar is a preservative along with alcohol. Then, when consumed, it can be diluted with a tonic.
tatlin
Thank you, Natusya, it's still tasty, I hide it especially at the dacha, until the New Year (from girlfriends further, well, why do you have a tasty drink)
Loksa
tatlin, when using add champagne and fput ..... I will.
