Welchs Concord Grape Juice Concentrate
 
I have been given some of this, 12 cans to be exact. Can a decent wine be
made from this? I see Jack K has a concentrate recipe for Welchs, but not
sure this is the same type. Could I use that recipe?

If so any advice on how much concentrate to use per gallon and should I add
any other items to give it more body and flavor?

Any advice would be appreciated.

Dan

PS: anyone know of any wine making clubs in the Everett, Seattle Washington
area?

Dan,
Are we talking about Welch's 100% Concord grape juice frozen concentrate?
If so, then yes a decent wine can be made if you're willing to let it age.
Yes, please use Jack's recipe. I use 2 containers per gallon, and just
follow the rest of his recipe.

I haven't tried any myself, but I have a batch of 100% Niagara going.
I've heard from others that the 100% Concord makes a pretty decent
wine. Use 2 12 ounce containers per gallon. Actually think they
are 11.5 ounces, but you get the idea. Let us know how it turns out.

Hi. http://winemaking.jackkeller.net/reques65.asp thats the
address for the recipe.Here in my area only frozen Welches grape
cocktail is available.The ingredients list nothing but grape juices
however. The wine I am making from it(1gal),has trouble finishing
fermenting. First it stopped altogether,then is verrrryyyy slow even
using a large yeast starter.Its still working after 6 weeks or
so.Anyone else have similar experience with this product?......andy j.

Yes, I have. Just be patient. Next time try some yeast nutrient - it seems
to help things get going and stay going.
