Hi!
The initial recipe called for only 3 3/4 quarts of water. As I read through
my notes, I noted that I didn't have any to top up with and the recipe
didn't quite produce 1 gallon, so I've increased the water to get a full
gallon plus a bit more to use as top up. I also noted that there was so
much cranberry sludge, that when I racked, I was concerned about adding all
this water - so I bought a can of 100% frozen cranberry juice and added that
for top-up. Good-luck
Darlene

Tom,
I've made it and bottled it, but this was my first batch. The recipe
was
from Terry Garey's "The Joy of Home Winemaking". The wine came out at a
12%
alcohol by volume - it had a cranberry taste, a bit tart, but smooth -
ending SG was 1.021. I've been letting it age. I'll break out the
first
bottle at Thanksgiving. I'm waiting for cranberries to go on sale
again,
right after Thanksgiving, and then I'll buy 4 bags at 12 oz each, freeze
them for a couple of weeks and then start making the wine. When I make
it
again, I will use more water - there was a lot of cranberry sludge. If
this
sounds like a recipe you'd like, let me know and I'll send it to you.

I am looking for a tried and true recipe for cranberry wine. I am
looking
for someone who made and bottled it so you can tell me good or bad on
what
you did.
Tom
