Holy crap, you turned Mountain Dew into Mountain Brew.

[@ericwidder2954]

God created Man. Man creates alcoholic Mountain Dew.

[@Humanechoes]

But who created the diabetes this will cause?

[@DannyConeHeadOnceLer]

Man became God in so many levels since evolution especially with prehistoric times

[@Falak2]

The add I got before this video was for A.A. lol

[@Humanechoes]

I sincerely hope you get the help you need. Drinking all this dew wine has changed you.

[@firemanmcdonald]

Must have only been your algorithm 😂

[@coreymineard]

Or save a shitload of time and just add vodka to Mountain Dew. Boom.

[@OnyxXThePunch]

I used to do shit like this in highschool

[@JamieDrake-cz6mb]

You go and try to do that in Canada. 54 bucks for a liter of vodka or I could spend four bucks and brew mountain Dew and get drunk off of 50% alcohol mountain Dew you do the math which is cheaper

[@PapaEnoch052]

Because it is fun :)

[@demETXboyz]

@@JamieDrake-cz6mbyou can’t ferment it to 50% abv lol

[@devonreseburg1359]

Interesting idea. Just FYI the tool you are using at 2:22 is not meant to be used as a pump. If you put the receiving container below the container with the liquid in it and pump once or twice the rest of the liquid will syphon out on its own.

[@Humanechoes]

That is very good to know. I felt like I'd seen people do that properly before but was too worried about just getting it done.

[@MomJeans2]

aka the auto-siphon

[@MaverickJohnson007]

Yeah once it gets going gravity will do the rest as long as you have the first vessel higher.

[@matthiasravencroft]

After making this, I’m gonna come at Chip like a spider monkey

[@timothytallent2427]

honestly i just put normal yeast in some moutain dew and it took like 4 days to finish and it was probably like 3% i drank a liter and was tipsy.

[@jalapenobusinesss]

Only 3%? Maybe you should have waited longer

[@Ashewyn]

you're a mad lad Also: Then Human Echoes turned the mountain dew into wine, ahd he said, drink with me my fellow gamers, for this is my fuel. Do this and rise up withme.

[@Hogartth]

Sweq

[@jack-dr7kb]

yes

[@screechandgiggle6868]

I can’t believe you’ve done this. Thank you.

[@Humanechoes]

It was never a question of could but should.

[@comradecat3678]

The gut rot of legend

[@314DOWORK]

Been brewing for 5yrs and I’ve heard about this recipe a lot. I might give a swing…..using my clearing agents,bottle carb in beer bottles, and pasteurized like cider

[@jumpieva]

"Be careful so that your glass jars don't explode" LOL small caveat

[@koolboiproductions8458]

Jesus turned water to wine, mankind turned mtn dew to wine.

[@ninjamantis8309]

Got the idea for this and looked it up to see if anyones done it, glad to see that someone has, i want to make it with some a and w root beer

[@melba303]

Started brewing this year. Putting this on my list 😂

[@dusyfingers]

Dude great choice! What about cambucha? Or what ever that milky stuff is. Love the voice over btw and thanks for the helpful tips along the way. I’m subbed now so I can’t wait to see what else you got!

[@Humanechoes]

Can't wait to get some new things up. Thanks for the sub! Some combucha is actually already alcoholic

[@silasstryder]

Personally mtn dew tastes like straight mixer with how sweet it is, but if this cuts the sweetness and doubles as my alcoholic beverage for the night that’s so convenient I might have to give this a shot!

[@Kmass]

Mountain dew was invented as a chaser for moonshine originally

[@Ometecuhtli13thGate]

You are a mad genius. I like it.

[@Alphanerd2]

Truly a man ahead of his time

[@Infunktable]

Holy butts you really did it!! Those jars look so freakin cool too. I wonder if there's some way to make like a root beer float wine, like a root beer float beer. Awesome video!!!

[@Humanechoes]

I was thinking about making a root beer beer but making it with ice cream might raise the alcohol content and dilute the chemicals that are bad for yeast. Might be perfect.

[@andrewhulliberger1750]

Yeah it’s called “not your fathers root beer” lol

[@JulioAvalos3000]

I will have to rent a tuxedo when I drink it.

[@gcf7175]

Classy!

[@Dapope_1]

Dank Mountain Dew

[@brianfischer5609]

That weird font made me think the title was "Mountain Dew Urine" 😂😂

[@infin1ty850]

I'm going to give this a go, but being the Carolinas I figured it would only be fitting to do it with Cheerwine.

[@greenbroccolistudios1275]

Ohohohohooo Mountain dew My fav drink :D

[@jimscott4539]

Forgot to mention 2 other things. There was no mention of sanitizer use at all. And, really if the creator was honest he knew it tasted like crap from the way he did it. He should have let them fully ferment. That would increase the alcohol more. Then prime the yeast again and cap. 2oz of warm water to melt 2 tbs of sugar added to ea batch. This would wake up the yeast again and become a 2nd fermentation. Thus adding a little more alcohol and being capped would create cO2 carbonation. But, not enough pressure to explode the glass. Then refrigerate and enjoy later. I’ve been making beer and wine since 1990. 100’s of gallons of premium beverages. Think I know a little by now ;)

[@Nimbus.]

add a cup of sugar and bring the dew up to a steep and let cool before adding yeast.

[@dimagass7801]

I want to do basically this but with juneberry...I have seen you need like a tablespoon of baking soda to increase ph so it's not so acidic and the preservatives don't prevent it from fermentation

[@statoilbensin2190]

True that it will be less sweet as some sugar is lost during feementation. Therefore in order to make it sweeteer use stevia or tablets of aspartame. Dont add sugar, it will explode.

[@deanstiller]

The wine text in the thumbnail looks like urine

[@Kwin]

"Kind of Limey"? What Mountain Dew were you drinking? Dew is made with orange juice. You think Pepsi Co. would make Sierra Mist/Starry (lemon lime) if they already had a lemon lime soda?

[@MANiCpixiNITEmare]

This looks horribly fascinating!

[@Humanechoes]

Chemistry abused.

[@DannyConeHeadOnceLer]

I dare you to do Energy drinks like Red Bull and Monster with alcohol

[@BeardMan01]

This needs to be done with Dew Game Fuel and with Cheerwine.

[@Friendly_Neigborhood_Astolfo]

We now know Jesus's secret to turning water into wine

[@MomJeans2]

Time to make a gallon of this and force carb it in a soda keg.

[@DannyConeHeadOnceLer]

Welp I'm in, I want a taste of that good stuff They're perfect for a fancy Livestream

[@r10vw]

Next time and I'm sure you may know now.. use the auto siphon as a siphon. Don't pump it. The siphon will do all the work for you after the 1st 2 pumps if the jug you transfer to is lower than the other.. Happy brewing!

[@LordParaDax]

Legendary

[@Humanechoes]

Thanks!

[@jessydafoodie8261]

Could you use this idea for any soda such as faygo

[@JoeMama-li6sd]

The band new shirt and tie for this video🤣

[@esra_erimez]

Pepsi should hire you to make this.

[@eknuds]

I was wondering if there's something higher in pH that could be mixed in that would still taste good.

[@diegograterol9105]

is ther a way i can make the "anti bacteria" mechanism with recycable materials?

[@cheekysaver]

That auto siphon works better when elevated. You just start it then and it takes it down without pumping. You will have it carbonate better at room temp. It doesn't happen in the fridge. :) It is a pretty good experiment though! ;)

[@Humanechoes]

The siphon was a big dumb on my part for sure :)

[@cheekysaver]

@@Humanechoes I have seen experienced brewers make the same mistake on vid. Brewing is a learning process.

[@js5072]

You should make more and have some friends come over and have mountain dew wine and cheese doritos tasting xD classy.

[@Humanechoes]

I really should.

[@DannyConeHeadOnceLer]

@@Humanechoes try making fancy Doritos souffle or even a fancy platter of nacho toppings on them Doritos especially both Cool Ranch and Nacho Cheese

[@DU.HISPANO]

The best way to do this is making homemade mountain dew and then following this process

[@DU.HISPANO]

Of course homemade mountain dew isnt exactly normal mountain dew because mountain dew has a lot of other chemicals but it is pretty similar and its easier to ferment

[@ryanstafford9717]

Please do not ever transfer something by pumping like that. Those devices are meant to initiate a syphon so as to minimize air contact (and introducing vinegar producing bacteria). Also, heating on the stove top will drive off co2 and some volatiles so you get a better flavor (and you can chaptalize- add sugar - to get more alcohol while it is hot).

[@Humanechoes]

Oh believe me, this video getting big had my inbox filled with siphon instructions. I'm a dumb.

[@chamoo232]

@@Humanechoes I love how you are making alcohol with freaking Mountain Dew and everyone is all "you are doing it wrong! Don't use the pump like that! You are ruining the flavor!!" lol

[@ryanstafford9717]

It can make a product that can make you sick. The addition of acetobacter can increase acidity, ruin flavor, and make the consumer violently ill rather than buzzed. Anything worth doing is worth doing right. I love the video. I love the idea. I am surprised that the yeast would ferment to dry given the sulphite load in most commercial sodas. Yeast also benefits from aerated wort, so a few violent shakes right before and/or a few minutes after pitching can help with fewer off flavors. I enjoyed the video, glad you made it for us to enjoy. Not trying to be negative about it at all, just some tips from a very experienced homebrewers. Thanks for the video

[@GiovanniMorenoMusic]

I want to buy just about everything used in this video, got links for me? 😂

[@fortytipper]

Does this work with ginger ale?

[@rattmcpossum]

If you use extra sugar to the drink can you make it closer to wine abv?? Wondering for juice as well, as I wanna make super sweet and super strong dessert wines from juices and soda

[@spicelord4782]

yes. Add too much and it'll stagnate/stall until you split and dilute it.

[@merlyberdproductions883]

Can you freeze distill this? If so how alchoholic do you think it would be?

[@duayinepu2103]

Well considering how it only reached around 4.5% probably, even if you took out half the water it'd be about 9% abv

[@merlyberdproductions883]

@@duayinepu2103 welp that kinda crushes my dream but thx for the info

[@kyliefan7]

Does it still have bromated vegetable oil in it?

[@Zaper692]

Cold distill it to get a discount moonshine.

Now do baja blast

[@dimagass7801]

Please do juneberry REDBULL and work out the kinks so I can make it😎

[@KURTIZVASQUEZ5]

i just poor vodka in my mountain dew takes 30 seconds

Do Gatorade

Do Redbull, please.

Jesus just shed a tear of joy.

[@Humanechoes]

The dew sustains our faith.

[@ss4kaioken295]

You should have re-carbonated it when you was done

[@EDKsurly]

do it again!

[@Humanechoes]

Got a new project brewing up

[@kevinbillingsley8256]

Or....you can dump a couple shots of pure grain alcohol into your container of Mountain Dew and have the same thing, already fizzy and it only takes 5 minutes to make it. Grain alcohol is cheap and yeast is not so...

[@Willowsworldx3]

Congratulations caption obvious, your getting promoted to general buzz kill

[@kevinbillingsley8256]

@@Willowsworldx3 If I'm pointing out the obvious that is easier, cheaper and faster: then why does the video exist? Hey! I can turn bat dung and animal carcasses into diamonds.

[@ITAPTF240]

Freezing carbonated water will flatten it quickly

Wine is a process not because of grapes. That is why you can get strawberries, cherries, blueberries, blackberries....etc made into wine.

a classier way for gamers to get drunk? How were the ways they were getting drunk before less classy than fuckin low alcohol mountain dew "wine"?! were they drinking fuckin listerine?
