Credits: Su Kahumbu
You will need the following
1 lt EM (There are many brands available, ask your agro dealer)
1 lt Mollasses
18 lt clean water
20 lt Jerry can or water bottle. NOTE: If using recycled container ensure it is cleaned and rinsed well. If it is contaminated the micro organisms may not grow well.
Pour the molasses into the 20 lt bottle
Add a little water to the molasses bottle
Shake the bottle
As you rinse the molasses bottle until it is clean add all the rinsed water to the 20 lt bottle
Add the EM solution
Shake bottle to mix the EM and the molasses
Check the bottom of the bottle. If it is clear the mixture has mixed well
Now fill the 20 lt bottle to the top with clean water
Keep filling until all the foam is out and there is no air left in the bottle
Seal the bottle tightly with a lid.
Leave this mixture in a cool place to ripen/ferment for about 7-10 days . It will change colour from dark black to orange/yellow and will smell like fermented beer. When it reaches this stage it is ready for use.
