Yeah but the wild yeasts on the skins of grapes/apples is different to the other wild bacteria you getting ripping around the air in your basement, stair well or brew room. At the very least you need to cover a brew bucket with a clean tea towel to allow CO2 out, and stop other shit getting in. Sealed brewing containers are far better controlling your brew and will lead to a more consistent product.
Anyone know if its legal to own a private still in this country? Used to use small stills purchased under the guise of "essential oil refiners" when I was at uni to produce 90-95% ethanol blends from bags of sugar and some bakers yeast. Great for mixing with soft drinks to get smashed super fast.
