Making vinegar

Is there a reason I can't make vinegar out of my FFJ residue? I know that it is done with FPJ typically but I can't reason out why I shouldn't? Any thoughts?

It doesn't matter if you're using FPJ or FFJ leftover, both work just fine. But it does take some time, guive it a couple months, or add to it a little bit of some vinegar wich is alive to jump start it.

sometimes if there isn't enough sugar present in the fpj plant material it wont make a food vinegar. I find making it from the juice itself gives more consistent results. 1/3 plant juice 2/3 water, a splash of raw vinegar or a vinegar scoby. cover with breathable lid. if you have a well developed scoby it will speed up the process significantly. without adding any vinegar or scoby to inoculate the brew it can take up to 5 months to make vinegar. but you'll grow your own scoby in the process.
