    Wine making is easy. I was an expert by my first batch! The second came in at 70 proof. All by measurement of a hydrometer. So easy!!!! When, after 3-4 weeks, add a 5% (same juice) mixture per make - for added flavor and allow to rest in an oak barrel for several months (ideally for mellowing), before, bottling by means of glass and cork

    I make my wine so strong it taste almost like moonshine.Ive never put more fruit in it,just more sugar.When I pour it up I add extra sugar to taste to give it a light sweet taste and then put it in the fridge to age so it doesn't try to keep working.My strawberry wine is a hit with all the ladies lol.Strong yet smooth going down and no aftertaste except the fruit.

    A beginner first tries to make strong booze and ends up making prizon hooch. Slowly when he becomes seasoned, he cares about all the desired characters of wine. 12% ABV is enough for a good wine.

      @@HomeBrewAdvice nowadays I'm teaching a group of enthusiasts about wine making. Some of them try to make crazy ABV of 17-18% and don't care about taste. But slowly some have realised that taste, colour, clarity, tartness, aroma etc are also important to make it drinkable and enjoying.

    Good video.
    It teaches me to be patient.
    My first batch made me famous in friends. Everyone dubbed me an artist in making wine.
    Second batch has given me tough time.: it’s bubbling got slower. Alcohol level is not coming up to desired level-10%.
    Checked everything- yeast is is fine. Room temperature is fine too.
    WTF is there to slowdown the bubbling 😤
    I just racked it n it got dead slow.
    Need patience 😌
    It’s past 20 days.
    Let’s wait 10 days more.
    I’ll do it. 🦹‍♀️

      Don't do that. Honey is a living food and it's going to be way different than sugar. Better do research first

      @Dave_en 4 года назад +2

      Use either honey or sugar. Don't add both. It's not a bad idea to backsweeten your drink. Just do it little carefully.👍

    • @survivalistor6195
      @survivalistor6195 9 месяцев назад

      If you're going to add honey to sweeten it, and are going to store it after adding: do not forget to add potassium sorbate first, to kill the yeast. Or your honey will turn to alcohol, and the by products of that process may be undesirable

    I made mead wich is like wine but honey was used instead of fruit. I also added a pound or two of sugar in a gallon and it was bubbling like crazy for two months. Then it suddenly stopped. I pulled it out took a taste and it was way too sweet I could hardly taste or smell any alcohol. I feel like even if I added less sugar alcohol would still be low. I'll try again next time. It taste good still but too sweet
