Reply to comment by TheBoarsEye in TIL that incarcerated prisoners make a contraband drink in prison called "pruno" which entails fermenting fruit, sugar cubes, bread, and water in a ziplock bag a several days. by FlashyBehind
It’s probably a nice nutrient source that aids the fermentation process. Fruit juices don’t contain a lot of food for yeast and it’s not like they’re using aggressive strains to ferment with.

This is why some of my recent batches havent been working ughhh, 10% juice. Trying to learn how to steep feed with bread yeast has been annoying so far.

I’ve never fed mine bread yeast but I’m assuming you cook them first and add after it’s cooled?
