SudoMate Mk. 5 Recipe

SudoMate Mk.5 Recipe
wonderful mate brew including ginger, vanilla, etc

SudoMate Mk.5 debuted at the First Friday Event at Sudo Room, Oakland, CA.
The batch was created hours earlier by Ray Lai & Max Klein with help from Ari Kahn. A Rube Goldbergesque heat exchange was created to watercool the boiling hot mate in time for the event.
No one was burned in the making of the batch.

Learnings

What we are learning from time to time

From of Batch #1, #2 and #3

RECIPES ETC

  • Vanilla extract makes for a really nice aroma. REALLY AWESOME TO HAVE! GETZ IT!
  • Salt-lite, mix of potasium and sodium 50/50, is even better than salt. More electrolytes.

PROCESS, GEAR

  • Bigger pot for main-batch - our keg is 5 gallons. Morten can bring the Subiir turkeyfrier for brewing for next time.
  • More containers and things to pour from, into and through in general.
    • Getting a big and fine strainer along with a corresponding funnel would be very awesome.
  • It was a bit confusing that there were a lot of opinions on each batch. Making batches with separate master chefs worked really well to counter this.
    • However, it was a bit messy with a lot of batches going on at once. Better space preparing and workflow would improve this greatly.
  • A designated documenter made sure documentation was happening; it worked well that said documenter said ready by the keyboard, doing Just In Time documentation (ie. chefs would simply say numbers as they added, as it was all very experimental).

Business Plan

  • Make it.

      • Mate if we're aiming for ethical excellence might be Guayaki in Sebastopol [6]
      • for 50L ~ 100 bottles

        • We could also use 333ml bottles
    • Brew it (Morten: "Sounds fun. I'm in")
      • Will we need a vat?
        • (Morten: If necessary use my 15L pots and make several batches.)
        • Do we have a vat?
        • Hol has a keg.
        • Can a metal worker at sudo make us a vat
    • Spice it if necessary
      • Following this makerzine guide[4] maybe - lol. nice, Che and [1]
      • Or allow adventurous sudoer to blaze trail
        • Noise bridge already made something called "Sudo Pop", which is up our alley. [2]

        • Ask him nicely
        • Pay him
