Making Pomegranate Wine and Brandy
I was only able to find one Recipe on making Pomegranate Brandy and Wine before making this vid, so I decided to try it for myself.
Even though the wine component was a Fail to me, the flavor may be liked by others (probably the reason I could not find much on Pomegranate wine).
.................................................................................................
(Edit)... After the high cost of materials for this project and the drawn out time-frame for completion, it was a disappointment not to have a palatable wine. after completion I thought the flavor was too intense and may have benefited from using more water, less chemicals, some raisins as a yeast nutrient and additional...

    I would' like to send you a video on how you distill it's quite ingenious the absolute best part is you get you see the steam rise it gathers on the bottom of a bag shaped like a reservoir. Which is secured around your bucket,bin,container with a th8ck strong piece of elastic,roughly 1-1½ litres of water sitting on that bag.So the bag is pressed down slightly and you should know it's even all sides so the water 💧 sits edge edge

    Beginning you state 350g citric. End you state 35g. For your viewers, which is it please? I do a similar process, however add equal amounts of course salt as citric acid and thoroughly dissolve. The process works equally well on stainless steel. I purchase 1kg bags of citric acid from Amazon - much more economical and never expires. Cheers.

    You may find the screw very difficult to get off. Use an adjustable spanner, it doesn't need to be big enough to hold the whole screw (horizontally), just vertically anywhere on the edge is enough to get leverage to twist it- even a small spanner works easily

    So I do have a little bit of confusion here, Let us say we need to make ABV 40% of ABV 60%, liquid volume is 1000ml) After the calculations the water needed to added is 500ml So does 500ml of water and 500ml of alcohol (60%ABV) makes ABV 40%?

    Thanks, I’m struggling with a stalled sugar wash, first I tried tomato paste, then I added some more yeast, it went down from 1.055 to 1.045, a couple of weeks later I checked the ph and it was 2.5 so I diluted it I little and split it and added some oyster shells, ones bubbling away happily the other is as slow as a wet week. The slow one is at 1.015 down from 1.035 when I split it. I thinks I’ll mix them up when they both stop bubbling. I’m only in it for a bag of sugar and some yeast, my wife calls it my science experiment. I’m happy to play until I get mould on it 😊

    When it comes to tiles to know if you are going into tails with the oils dripping into the alcohol think about when you looked down tar Road on a very hot day you can see a heat Haze you will start to notice something similar going into the alcohol it's the oils not dissipating into the alcohol smoothly switch to collecting tiles and keep it for another run. Going back to your foreshots with that size still if it's a 30 L you're probably need to collect 50ml or up to 100ml to be safe then you should be in Heads no expert but that's just some stuff I've picked up hopefully some of that might have helped you in some way shape or form

    I do a stripping run , and a spirit run and add a doubler on the spirit run to infuse with more watermelon flavor I fill the doubler with the pulp which I reserved from making the wash and added about 2 liters of spring water to pulp . My wash recipe also calls for the juice of 8 limes.

    If corn is cheap, use corn. This is why people use animal feed corn. Take well crushed corn and make a thick porridge with it, using only just enough boiling water. Let it cool it naturally . THEN add malted barley or malted corn. A mash aimed at 10% ABV is usually the sweet spot for yield vs fermentation stopping due to alcohol stopping the yeast.

  • @seymourpro6097
    @seymourpro6097 10 месяцев назад

    The first hot water is to open the corn's starches up -just like making porridge. This makes the starch accessible to the malt enzymes that turn it into sugars in cool solutions. Corn can also be malted. Corn vs Sugar -first it was a cost based decision.

    It,s not just you my friend. I watched four videos read a couple recipes and they all said things like, no watermelon flavor or essence, smelled like cucumbers, etc. With the exception of running it again and then adding a watermelon essence which some good ones online sugar free, i wouldn't buy watermelons for making anything other than enjoying on a hot day. Bananas, are inexpensive and amazing flavors. Keep up the good work. It's a great hobby for sure! tom

    You should read the directions on your iodine test. I also thought a few times with my own that the starches weren’t being converted after reading the bottle. Once again, the test read perfectly correct when Jack Black the starches have been converted, I know I have also seen other videos and other tests on the iodine, and they all dissipated and changed to another color or disappeared, but my specific directions say when it turns completely black, all starches have been converted
