Can anyone see if this recipe looks OK? It is a "substitution" for the
acids & tannins. It's a natural "old style" recipe. Just starting out, so I am wanting to try it, because it's cheap & I can do it now, without buying all the winemaking extras. With all the pasturizing in the food industry & if I keep a clean area for making it, I hope it would work. Please post what you think & if you feel something should be added, replaced or omitted and why. Thanks! -- Wälrüs 128 Oz - Any "red" juice (Grape, blackberry, raspberry, blueberry, etc......). 3-1/2C - Sugar. Pinch - Baker's Yeast (Converts to about 14% alcohol). 2 Tsp - Lemon Juice (In place of Citric acid). 1 Tsp - Cream of tartar (In place of Tartaric acid). 1 Slice - Apple (In place of Malic acid). 1/8 Cup - Pureed Raisins (In place of Nutrient). Tea - From one tea bag (In place of Tannins). Mix together juice & sugar until blended. Add the rest, add airlock & place in 70 degree tempurature until fermentation stops (about 30-40 days). Wait another 7-14 days for wine to settle & clear. Pour into bottles through a coffee filter, to elimimate spillage of sediment. Cork or serve. Makes 1 gallon. |
