What is vinergar made from?

Answer 1

Apples.

Answer 2

Vinegar (from Old French vinaigre, meaning "sour wine") is a sour-tasting liquid made from the oxidation of ethanol in wine, cider, beer, fermented fruit juice, or nearly any other liquid containing alcohol. It can also be made by certain bacteria operating on sugar-water solutions directly, without intermediary conversion to ethanol (see acetic acid). Commercially available vinegar usually has a pH of about 2.4.

Answer 3

Alcohol (ethanol)
Vinegar is a solution of acetic acid (usually with other components) drrived from bacterial oxidation of ethanol.

However that can come from a vairety of sources. Ultra cheap vinegar fopund in the UK (the home of false cheap stuff like sugar rather than fruit ridden "jams", cocoa low level composition "chocolate", prime meat low level "sausages" and so on), is simply a ca 1M solution of acetic acid in water, coloured with caramel (often, although technically illegally not that ever stops the uk market, sold as "malt vinegar").
The acetic acid is made by fermentation from basic ethanol.
However more traditionally vinegar is made by the same fermentative proces, but from alcohilic ferments. Thuis wine vinegar is as it suggests, acetobacteria fermentation of red or white wine. malt vinegar strictly is the acetobacteria ferment of ethanolic fermented malt extract (kinda beer but without the hops)
The difference is the other chemicals (taste) come with this..so wine vinegar does NOT taste like 1M acetic acid, nor does true "malt vinegar"

Answer 4

vinegar can be made from any fermentable substance, most often it is made from bad wine or apple cider

major wine producers always have a surpluss of bad grapes, watery grapes, or wine that is not good enough to bottle. natural bacteria are added and they convert the wine to vinegar

same with cider

distilled vinegar is the same stuff, but clarified and purified

Answer 5

Barley, rice, apples, maybe other things too. In the UK Malt Vinegar is the most common, which is made from Barley.

Answer 6

Depends what kind of vinegar. Only apple cider vinegar is made from apples.

Answer 7

natural vinegar can be made from malt mash, wine and cider.

Stay away from 'non-brewed condiment' which is a weakened form of industrial acetic acid....yuk

Answer 8

It can also be made from wine. In fact, when wines go off they are often referred to as vinegary.

Answer 9

it depends upon what type of vinegar you buy. There is apple cider vinegar, white wine, rice, etc...

Answer 10

Alcohol. It could be cider, red wine, white wine, rice, etc
