There is a video in this lesson showing students how to brew alcohol at home using yeast, grape juice and sugar - if you are not comfortable showing students this please do not buy this resource. My reasoning for using this was to make the learning more relatable to them as my students don’t have enough cultural capital to grasp the industrial process.
