Description

Step into the Benicia Fermentory kitchen and experience fermentation in its most joyful, down-to-earth form. In this beautifully filmed, real-time workshop, fermentation educator Kelsey Bye takes you on a bubbling, tangy journey through the process of transforming fresh apples into raw, probiotic-rich vinegar — the same way it’s been done for centuries, but with a modern, approachable twist.

Captured during a live Benicia Fermentory class, this recording invites you to learn alongside a room full of curious, laughing fermentation enthusiasts. You’ll witness the real rhythm of a live workshop — spontaneous questions, troubleshooting tips, and those satisfying “ohhh, that’s how it works!” moments that only happen when you’re fermenting together.

Through each step, Kelsey shares her approachable method for crafting raw apple cider vinegar using simple ingredients — apples, sugar, water, time, and curiosity. Along the way, she dives into the why behind the process: the invisible magic of microbes, the alchemy of fermentation, and how to tell when your vinegar has truly come alive.

This class is more than an instructional video — it’s an invitation to slow down, connect, and create something living. Whether you’re brand new to fermentation or deep in the craft, you’ll leave inspired to keep experimenting in your own kitchen.
