Just what equip. do you need cept some 20 liter plactic buckets,some of the 20 liter water bottles and a plug for them and some small plastic hose to run as a vent into a glass of water to waterseal your vent to prevent bugs in the booze??got plenty of fresh fruit and some sugar right here.

Here is a great machine that maybe would work for wine as well:

It isn't booze it's wine. Speaking of which, waiting on English Friends' arrival with.. Aussie reds...

I hope you are doing this in secret.

Brewing is illegal even for wine and possession of fresh brewers yeast is illegal.

They'll have to bang up a lotta upcountry Thai's then

Daft though it sounds, home brewing is illegal in Thailand. I was seriously considering making my own beer, but whoever brings in the kit is facing more trouble than it's worth.

You can always do it the good old fashion way - roll up the pants, hop into a tub full of grapes and start stomping. This is how my grandfather used to make his wine

Yes, I agree. If possible get a very old man with very long toenails involved.

I have been told it's the toejam makes the difference Nat

OK Dr. P,I think it is time we got something straight,,Bill W. was the founder of alcoholics anonymous,,and he had nothing again alcohol,and I do not either,it is for the consumption and enjoyment of those that can handle it,some of us can't and some of those even know it and some don't.

Just pullin your leg about the gettin straight stuff,but some think that AA people are again booze,the true members are the ones that don't drink because they don't want to and are not again it. The ones that want to drink but understand they can't are the ones again it.

And the distillery in my backyard is a Thai licensed distillery that is now in the process of going to corn from sticky rice for the distillate,and if he had some wine to run,they would have some kick ass brandy.

There is no sweat to makin wine,,crush your fruit in the plastic buckets,add a little yeast,brewers is best but any kind will work,and some sugar if needed, let it work a few days,strain it off and put the juice in your water bottles and stop em with a water seal and wait till it is worked off,bottle and age for a few days and get drunk.we use to get drunk between the crock and the bottles.

And I don't think I would worry about the legality of it,prostitution is illegal too and you don't see them hiding do you??coarse you might have to blow a cop once in awhile like the girls do.
