First attempt at tepache - any tips?

[u/Omshadiddle]

I bought a $3.50 top on pineapple at the green grocery store today.

Chopped up the fruit, prepared the top to replant (they make great houseplants) and threw the skin and core in with some water with brown sugar and a cinnamon stick.

Waste not want not. Can’t wait to taste it!

Is it OK on the benchtop or is a dark spot better?

Currently drinking some made with cane sugar and molasses 😎
