There should be about 4 to 6 inches from the water line to the cork to allow for air space.\n At this point, you need to dissolve the sugar in the water. Nathan and I find it easiest to cap the jug with its original lid and slowly roll it on the floor.\n After the sugar has been completely dissolved, the jug needs to be corked. We shove it in as far as it will go, then hammer it in a little more.\n The tubing then needs to be placed in the cork and with one end just below the base of the cork, but not in the water, and the other placed inside the water-filled beer bottle.\n Now place it in a cool, dark place for 3 months … Or until the bubbles slow down.\n When it’s ready, strain it through cheesecloth into a decanter. You can place whatever you don’t drink right away into an empty wine bottle and reseal.\n\n\n\n \n Tip\n \n \n\nMake sure everything is sterile. The first time we did this, we used an old hose we found in the garage… big mistake. We ended up with a mold-filled jug. Buy a new hose, it’s really cheap, and place it in some boiling water with the cork.\nAlso, it might be easier to just buy an aerating cap than to bother with the cork and tubing stuff, but it’s more expensive.

My guests often cringe, question, and almost always refuse, though some are brave. I had always thought that the concept of hard-boiled eggs served in sauce was from the “old country”… a tradition passed on by many generations. I have since found out that Grandma Peters really just started this years ago for her children. The story says that she started cooking the sauce so early on Sunday morning, that when her children woke up, she just served them a hard-boiled egg in sauce for breakfast! And so although it may not be from the old country, it has become a tradition passed on from one generation to the next.
