Hey folks new guy to the game, and I have what I hope can be a quick question.
Can I ferment and make stuff that is drinkable without the chemical additives like potassium metabisulfite, potassium sorbate, pectin enzyme and sparkolloid?
By drinkable I am first, of course, concerned with safety, secondly with flavor. Pretty not too concerned.
Generally I'd prefer not to use unnecessary chemicals, but if they were easily available I'd probably just go ahead and go for it, at least while I was learning. However, where I am located (Thailand) getting this stuff may turn into a serious hassle.
So can I do without or sub in something else that might be more easily obtainable, preferably maybe a little more natural?
