Manual crushing is preferable to using a food processor. You may have
trouble clearing the wine if you use a food processor as you'll have more
dissolved solids suspended in the wine if you puree it in a food processor.

Most of the recipes I see say to crush the blueberries, some within a
nylon
bag - placing the bag in the primary fermenter as well, some just to crush
and place in the primary fermenter. I haven't seen any that say you can
'crush' the blueberries in a food processor as opposed to crushing them
with
say a potato masher. Would the food processer route be acceptable?

TIA,

Robert
