Its not very important how it tastes... But to be honest I'm not sure, I tried the pruno once and now I just help make it since other people don't understand the basic science of what's going on. I usually tell people to add soda after I pour them a cup if they have issues with the taste or strength.

For the most part. I stay out of people's business and don't have debts so that helps. I've been in a couple fights over little things, but there are rules to how long a fight can last and such. The only time I felt there was no safety was during the riot. The place I'm at is considered one of the most dangerous prisons in the world according to the internet. But as long as you don't mess with the wrong people or do the wrong things, you'll be fine.

Most likely have to wait for trial, which will be a few months after the next court date. From there I hope to win my case and go home. I was a passenger in a car that the driver hid marijuana in. We were stopped and searched at the boarder. If I do not win, I'm looking at 2.5-3 years. I've already been here 16.5 months

Thanks dude. We had a full scale riot last month. That was pretty crazy, but for the most part everything is fairly safe here.

I've seen all sorts of colors depending on what is used. Yesterday for Christmas someone brought out a few liters that looked similar to coca cola. I'm currently in prison in mexico awaiting trial for having too much marijuana..

The reason it's made in the toilet is to hide it. The officers rarely look there...

We used a whole bottle of ketchup in our last batch, along with hard candies from the nuns and soda for extra sugar.

Like spoiled wine? Or rotten fruit? Kinda like barf? Very acidic. Very bitter. The goal is to make all the sugar into alcohol so it usually isn't sweet unless you backsweeten it.
