How to Make Dundergløgg (Mulled Thunderbeer) LAST CHANCE

The recipe says beer instead of red wine and the alcohol is not added but develops during fermentation! Too interesting to let go even though it has to ferment for 3 weeks!! Last chance for Christmas

Put on the lid or alternatively plastic to cover up. There must be holes in the cover as the fermentation develops air (I placed a peace of cotton in the hole to avoid things to fall into my brew)

Dear Koury. There's a hole in the lid (step 13) but unfortunately I didn't have any brewing air lock at home ... Used them on my apple cider brewing simultaneously :-) I have placed a piece of cotton in the hole to prevent things to fall into my brew - I hope this will work ;-)

You probably want to air lock it by drilling a hole in the top, then add a brewing air lock to it. Otherwise oxygen will move freely and it won't ferment properly.
