### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works even better than I Expected
*by P***Y on July 21, 2025*

Well, Ha, haha..This blend does Exactly what it claims, that's for sure! I just ran a quick experiment with a quart of grape juice : 1 1/2 tsp. alcotec- also a quart of sweet black tea : 1 1/2 tsp. to see if it even works (low ratio because it's not sugar wash) and it certainly works. It didn't need 48 hours for this but just under 20 to fully convert all of the sugar into alcohol--about 9% abv for the tea and 8.5 for the grape juice, so it definately works quick! clearly the main nutrient is niacin because the blend itself as well as the results smell strongly of niacin. the grape juice actually tasted okay for a 20 hour ferment, it just smells like niacin. obviously, if you were planning to distill this anyway that wouldn't matter so much. All told tho i wouldn't recommend this for wine making or brewing beer but if your only intention is to produce ethanol quickly, this blend is ideal for that. if you do want to make tasty beverages quickly, that would still be possible but you will need to help it quite a bit---crash, rack, add fresh juice and chill might get you a decent wine but it would probably be easier to just use wine yeast and go set it and forget it style. A for effort tho.
