Neat, thanks for sharing. What did you use for your yeast water. Coincidentally, I was making fruit yeast water this week, but ran into problems. I’m not sure it the issue was my raisins having sunflower oil in the ingredient list or that I got impatient and put my jar on a heating pad.

You have to stay away from non-organic fruit as well as any fruit that has a coating on the outside like oil or sugar or apple juice. The outside has the wild yeast.

When I was making my yeast water I ran into the same problem. I couldn’t find raisins without some sort of oil coating. I gave up looking and had better luck with organic grapes.

Thanks @raven and @Benito I’ve got some organic dates in my pantry, no other ingredients
on the label :tada:.

Trader Joe’s has organic raisins that are uncoated , untreated and organic as well as dates, apricots, and figs. I make a mix of them for wild yeast water. As Benny says, organic grapes work as well as organic apples and pears ; just make sure they are unwaxed.

:tada: :clap: Five days, even in a house where the thermostat is set in the 50s at night.
