Easy Home Brewing - Strawberry Margarita Wine
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 9 сен 2024
- Wine kits are growing in popularity. It is dead easy to make quality wine at home with minimal equipment, and at $2.00 a bottle, the equipment will pay for itself in just one batch. In this video, we make a Strawberry Margarita flavored wine from a Winexpert kit. This kit was purchased from my local home brew supplier in Ontario Canada, Complete Home Brewing - www.completehomebrewing.com .
I like the style of the video. The way you just edited all the clips together and narrated over top was great. Made for an excellent how-to.
see this is just another prime example of why i love your videos! you show people how easy it is to make a really good end product! keep up the good work craig, cheers!!!
Thanks for posting, Craig. Every time you post a wine making video, I learn something new or how to improve what I do. Thank you again. Cheers!
I've seen all these wine kits at my local homebrew store and I saw your earlier wine kit video you've made. I think I'm going to have to give these a go. Your vids are great to watch and they just keep me going in my brewing hobby - Thanks and keep 'em coming!
Well made video. Nice to sit back in my leather office chair and watch and enjoy your videos. They are like a smooth beer, just some easy consumable content. =)
I planted four grape vines in my backyard. Maybe in four years I'll be good at videos because it'll be then that I start trying to make hooch with it. What inspired me was beer, though, a few breweries make grape-juice make beers that I've kinda liked.
Craig gave me a sample of this at his house. Although not the kind of wine I would make myself it was excellent quality and my girlfriend would love it. I want to make a kit wine soon.
Excellent video. The wine looks good too.
Another great one Craig!
Made that this summer! It is awesome! Qua-fable strong drink. I found it tasted even better after about a week in the bottle. We have passed bottles of this out and everyone so far loves it.
great video craig! Loved the editing and music! Great job!
Yeah... I agree with everyone else, awesome vid Craig. You Rock!
Awesome! I had actually debated purchasing this kit myself but didn't know how it would turn out. I may just need to get one of them now... :-) Cheers!
A good tip with the juice bag is to add a little water to shake out the rest of the juice
I will definitely be giving this one a try Craig :D
great video Craig
started brewing thanx to your help thank u
LMAO......One thumbs down.....hmmmmmm i wonder who that could be. Poor TSA is down on his luck because his old lady was getting her oil changed by another guy......no joke. That is why he will not be making many more vids.........i have MAJOR proof. Looks good on him for bashing craig all the time.........Another great vid craig keep up the good work. Your videos are not only informitive but also very fun to watch.......Like the old saying goes.......Living well is the best revenge....cheers
Just so you know the box the kit comes in is made to hold the grape juice while you pour it to make it easier. look at the box a little closer and you will see what i mean. there is normally even a punchout on the bottom for your hand to hold it
I really want to start brewing again! I don't feel like I gave it enough effort last time.
Finished product looked awesome I think I need to do a review of this wine Craig...Ah.... for the sake of youtubers worldwide ;)
@CraigTube
Thank you, this will make the bottle cleaning(the only thing boring about brewing in my opinion) so much easier.
Excellent! Watching this I was thinking how easy it would be to use a beer keg and mix this with some homemade soda and have it carbed-up in the kegerator to serve at a nice Sunday brunch or family gathering. What's the abv on it? Cheers!
Music's a little like 70's porn. (so I've been told). Nice video Craig, I hope alot of you get interested in this hobby... It's fun and has no limits as far as variations.
Nice video Craig I'm not sure if u can get it there but I made a peach Chablis wine and it's fantastic it's made by cantina around 40euro for a 30 bottle mix well worth it if u can get it it's well worth giving it a lash
Did you know there is a strawberry margarita flavoured shisha too! I think Starbuz make it.
Although not technically wine (flavour packet kills it in my book) a good beginners introduction. Lets see some real fruit crushing!
@CraigTube I think Wine is any fruit juice fermented in the wine style. Can you make wine from strawberrys? Yes. can you make it from fruit cordial? no.
Yea do one on hemp brew
hi craig.. love the videos.. i've been making homebrew for a while always using the inmate brew method that i learnt obviously as an inmate.. I know that all these kits come with the preservatives but i was just wondering if you knew of any natural preservative/fining additives i could use?? i only mention it as i like to keep things nice and additive free as much as poss & of course we have been making wine for centuries without chemical preservatives,,, any tips ?
Craig, Great video. I am making my first wine a Moscato, and I hope I have degassed enough. Did degassig for about 2 days. My question is now that I have added the clearing agent and all the sedament is at the bottom. Should I allow it to stay on the sedament or rack it off. Its clear and I am afraid to mess with it.
i love how you added the strawberry at the end hahaha
I love your auto syphon Craig. Can you get them in the UK?
Hi Craig quick question on sanitation.Doesn't Sodium Met require a 20 minute contact time? It's just looked like you'd squitr some in and rinse almost immediately.
Craig, I bottled, and I may have bottled a little to soon, but I added conditioner to it and maybe with the aqing it will sweeten it more. I am going to order the Strawberry Marguriata, any suggestions. I love Mosacato and other than the wine being young. It was good. Alcohol lvl was good. I have never made the Strawberry Margurita. SO any advise??
hey craig, great videos. i did a search for this type of wine kit and found out they dont have it anymore. im in the process of making a 5 gal batch from strawberry/banana juice. just racked it after 4 days in the main fermenter. what would u suggest i could use to get that sweet strawberry kind of flavoring to my wine
i just finished doing the first steps of making strawberry wine, i used a dried fruit kit and i put the dried fruits in the fermenting bin, do you know if that was right to do or do i need to fillter them out ? or do they disolve in the fermenting process ? hope you will be able to answer these questions
It's kind of strange that in this kit you add flavoring then bottle..For the kit I just did that has flavoring I added the flavoring after the conditioning but it's still in secondary now. I racked once just to get rid of all the sediment but it's had the flavoring mixed in for about 2 weeks now. No more fermentations is happening right now so I'm just curious why the process is so different.
@SomeHippie69 70 bucks a box it makes 30 bottles he said...
Great description "scruff of the neck". jaha
Anyone know if the auto syphon has another name? Can't find anything similar in the UK.
Is it possible to fit this bottle washing unit to a kitchen sink?
@Intoxilyzer5000 Nice! i might have to get a box, throw a nice party when its done lol.
would it hurt to filter the wine after you add the flavour pack to it
Isn't really a wine is it? Or is my interpretation of the word wine incorrect? Wine is that stuff of which there are a red, a white and some color inbetween version, right?
@roflpaluza I'm making some wine now too. I made it so my Fiancée can drink wine rather than all my beer! I'm just kidding but she likes wine better so in a few days she'll have like 30 bottles of wine!
Does using the sanitizing solution In the bottles before rinsing them with tap water reintroduce bacteria from the tap water?
CJ80ish if you tap water has bacteria, you have bigger issues. most places the water is treated most likely with cholrine to kill any bacteria, so there really shouldnt be anything
so how long does a batch of wine like that last for your wife last when you make it craig, I would be lucky to get 30 days out of it, probly less lol
Hey Craig, Im new to brewing and I was wondering if it is ok to add the flavor pack or F-pack with the juice? Would this make a stronger less sweet wine?
Chadrick Willis it depends on the juice and whether a preservative was used. many of the flavoring packs in these kits use an artifical sweetner and scent adder so if you use it with the juice it wont ferment. assuming it was real juice in thenflavor pack, it would be added but wouldmget ferment with thenregular juice so the product will be drier vs using the foavor pack at the end.
How much do these kits go for Craig?
So how does 23 liters fit in a 5 gallon primary? Must be 6 gallons?
Yep
I have a question, if anyone would care to indulge me. Isn't the sanitizer harmful to humans? If so, do you rinse out your container with RO water afterward?
I'm not as familiar with the Sodium Metabisulphite, but another popular sanitizer called Star San is non-toxic and you don't have to rinse your containers. Yeast love it and you can't taste it!
is this wine kit still available am have trouble finding it can someone help me
tony pergar The kit goes bupy several names, but the same makers, wine expert, fontanna island mist are the same people, the difference is the amount of concentrated juice, some kits bring a lot, their cheaper ine bring about 5 liters. but island mist by wine expert is basically this same kit by anither name.
Great tutorial Craig, but If I made this for my girlfriend she would get all handsy. No thanks. lol......
Gulp.
I think Halfords has one that looks the same called a Jiggle syphon...but I don't know if it would be any good for brewing.
