I’m goin to try this recipe, but here are the variations I’ll do:
I’ll use a fermentation lock (Home made, pipe into a glass of water)

I’ll leave it for one week, just to get a bit of potency

Lastly I’ll use brewers yeast (difficult to find, but I got a couple of packs from pick n pay)

So I wouldn’t worry too much about being exact with the temperature. It doesn’t need to be boiled. I think it basically just needs to be about room temperature. Good luck and cheers!

I read your wonderful step-by-step instruction in how to make mfula mfula, and I am going to try it. But how hot should the water be when you start ? And does it have to boil first ?
Best regards
Salik

This particular drink is highly fermentable, and one night is enough to produce a decent amount of alcohol.

I,ve seen some guys that leaves the beer partly sealed in a warm garage for a month to make a potent beer which is cheap and tastes nice for a friday night braai at your place.

I’m always excited to hear about new brewing efforts in Africa, particularly in East Africa where I’ve lived and traveled. I’m not sure there’s any way that I can help you but I certainly wish you very good luck. I hope you are successful!
