vegimite wash

[Timmsy]

Happy new year to all

Just sitting here and watch the T20 and a thought came to me. Has anyone made a wash out of vegimite or can you? As we all know that its yeast lol. I know its out there just curious

Yes you can use vegemite/marmite as a nutrient in a wash but the yeast is dead so you will still need to add a live yeast.
Its been done before and while it works TPW or Weetbix wash are far better alternatives

Cool I was thinking that.
I wasn't going to make a wash out of vegimite just curious. Ill stick to making tpw

inmates used to use vegimite for trying to get there brews off ,
:)) so i was told when i went for the fremantle prison tour .

I don't believe there's any live yeast cells in vegemite :think:

[Kimbo]

not sure where they got there yeast from ( probably jock yeast ,,,wouldnt know ) but there have been cases where they have been busted for alchole the humble vegemite :) >>? maybe

probably the bread or the fruit for a more tropical wild yeast but there have been cases of inmates brewing so to speak .
im not one of them .
heard on the news

Prison kitchens have bread yeast as most bake their own bread- so I am told.
Alaskan bottleggers bible goes into some details of making that kind of swill.
