welcome today we're here at the gardens of Ancients where we are getting ready to make what we call our in brochure we take frozen grape juice we use at least three cans of frozen grape juice this is called a carboy this is what's thirty mixed in carboy trade double boiler and those are the essential parts at the well besides the we use reverse osmosis water that you go we'll go through it all in just a minute I'll put it all together but these are the essential parts for the first steps in making our gardens of ancients world-famous ambrosia okay now the first thing we do you can't walk through the camera there is unwrapped the sterilized carpet now this is something we use here because we we mass produce it here gallon jugs with white knock on our mowers more what you would find at the home use need a photo first step in our process of making our world-famous there Brody this before our frozen well let's roll and we use three cans for each any type of frozen grape juice whatever your flavor whatever your personal favorite is is really which it's your choice we prefer to great though but people have been known to use have the cherry capital raspberry just plenty better reduce slightly like the world and fortunately for us we have us these reverse osmosis water which we find this the best clean resource like the water to use this is just normal tie back shipping material it breathes basically it doesn't allow anything by the hair to get in there and the way we attach it to that so we have immediately your growth it has a chance to do it while it's rolling this is what we found works best and we're in the pasteurization room as well as we call it we have any hot plate set up with heat-resistant tiles the water is still in there the juice is going in there it's just like it was when we left a little bit of firmly turned on and what we do again we have this setup for you through use of years of experience that when we turn this particular hot plate on for about an hour it will get to the desired temperature of 170 175 degrees which is necessary for pasteurization from the scientific world and again this is just a cover to keep the heat from escaping give it an all around of the mini pipe feeding and all we do now is wait for an hour you let this cook for an hour did you go through my barrier that will come back and then that little pie come back in about 30 minutes and then an hour to make sure that it's doing what it's supposed to just to make keep your eyes on but essentially that's the pasteurization look at it right here now with the pasteurization this has been sitting at 175 for well it's about an hour and a half now but the last 30 minutes is the most important so I've tested it the temperature is still hovering around between 170 and 175 is what we like so all we do in the office is we're going to take it out and chill it it sits here until it's room temperature and once it reaches it reaches room temperature then we will do go to the inoculation phase which is going to be handled in the second part of this video so stay tuned for all sorts of exciting stuff welcome back to the gardens of Ancients today today we are going to inoculate with our Amanita muscaria mushroom the pasture the pasture ID is grape juice that we created a day ago and the utensils that we need the mediums are as small as it is it's like eighth of a teaspoon size and this is the process of inoculation for the Amanita muscaria ambrosia that we may first you take the top off oh by the way it's best to do this in a vent you know a non ventilated area where there's not much wind and not a lot of moisture as dry as possible and his column is in the air as possible the amount we use is that might even be too much you consider too much but that's the amount I pulled off this time when we take the top off drop it in and put that top that down so we retain the pasteurization or the the cleanliness of the inside of that as as much as possible and then we just place the tape it back over the find that paper that keeps it bleeding wellthen up a little bit to make sure that the review had about the oxygen or they are getting into it and make sure that the band of the rubber bands are on there as tight as possible and that's it today for the inoculation part of the ambrosia okay here we are today it's been perfecting the ambrosia lab we have a 21-day growth for our ambrosia with with the enmity to mushroom this is produced later there's a skin and then this is the fleece this is very healthy looking fleece in regards to what we're actually looking for this is kind of like almost perfect as I would like to say the next step in the process in our process is to have a jar to pour it off into separating the fleece from the juice so we take this off pist up we have our strainer and I'm a gallon sized jar to retain the juice I'm very small any we pour the juice into the jar restraining is for any residual pieces of oh I don't know skin that might be undesirable in the finished product so this is why we strain it so it's beneficial to have whatever size jars are going to pour it often to know how much juice you know to begin with and over a period of time you kind of keeping that out but we know we're going to get about a gallon on each batch when we do it with them and I know I'm blocking it so but the main thing is that we're showing you how to he's just a simple pour off kind of let this sit on top like that wait till it starts dripping and then we'll know that we pretty much got there's the drip make it and that's about as much as we want to get from that now the next step we do get this out of the way and cover this we're going to transport this off to our kitchen we let this sit blink so until we're ready to come back in a couple hours because we can harvest lease from the skin which we can use to make future generations the description of what we're using for the the carving process of the immune even we have a pot of boiling water stainless steel bowl in the expo ambrosia then we just poured it off we've got some sterilized mason jar what we need to get started in this part of the fight first thing before you I'd say about half this lid that's been keeping the steam in there goes that proper hearing replace this hump up with a little one and we wait and while awaiting least were it needs to reach to a certain temperature I believe it's about one well they'd like to honey for the burning off of the Testament they're trying to get rid of and one of the things that you really need to do when you're making this like we do is the start occasion it it brings out it brings to the top it evaporates what assets and encourages we are trying to get rid of it but over a period of time this is probably not as old as my whole process but we a couple of years ago we recently found that when we take sugar and sprinkle it on top there's a reaction that shows us and there's the reaction that shows us when we get that much foam from the sugar that we're still at least 30 minutes to maybe an hour away from the DM Foley be carved and we like to keep stirring that because that's what we're trying to get rid of eventually when we drop sugar in it at some point when they could be anywhere between an hour after we start and two hours after we start that when the sugar is dropped in there will be no reaction norm all right so we're hearing the the end of this we're gonna pour a little bit more sugar in and get a shot of it I don't believe anything we'll come back a little much but if we're not seeing any for a white poem and we know we're right then when your skirt is to see a little something so we have weed we'll let the society put it in Nice some journals because this will eventually be shipped off to remember the society doing this at home you can just about you use any glass jar or the resalable pump if you're gonna drink it right away they're going to store it you want to put it in mason jars part of the process I mentioned earlier was the harvesting of the fleece and we like to get at least two samples from each batch for future generations so the process of doing that well basically here's the container with the old fleet or the nucleus in it and this is basically just if you can focus on that as a it's a barbecue skewer that's been bent to 45 degrees it's got a nice sharp point on it you know we have found this works really well then extracting the bits of place that we want so to do that we take the paper off stick the sit inside you just drag it along the top of the fleece yeah we got a nice piece there we just pop that in there like like so and we're going to put in about two pieces in each jar just for the sake of posterity as big as they come okay there's one that we have and these live over here for the next time we're at some point in the future when we want to use the fleece as opposed to the powder Amanita or making the embroidery
