Damn you, I googled Kvass and I have to make some. No idea what it taste like but I have Schwarzbrot (black bread) and rye bread, and for jars and jugs I buy 1.9 liters pickles and keep the glass jars. Same with juice, buy juice in glass jugs and keep the jugs. Cost much less than buying jugs and bottles at the brew shop. Do you carbonate it or no ?.

I only put the yeast in with some additional ingredients.

Carbonation machine is very expensive.

It tastes nice, some say it's a lighter beer, but I'd say it's a thing of it's own, I don't drink my own supply, I give it to others and I like store bought kvass because it is carbonated and tastes less alcoholic than mine.

Sometimes the jars with pickles or juices get pretty expensive too and I like special jars that are hermetic, but I can make it in a regular jar.

If you like carbonated then after fermentation is done add about 4 grams to 350 ml. Not sure on exact amount but put in a plastic soda bottle and put the lid on, give it a day or two and squeeze the bottle for hardness. It should feel like a coca cola bottle.
