This all started when I looked in the freezer and saw all of the raspberries that we had frozen from that summer. Out of curiosity, I weighed them and found that I had just over 8 lbs! 8220;We’ll never eat that much! 8221; I said to myself. We don’t make jam. What are we going to do with all of these? It said. I rubbed my head and said, I have only made wine from kits!

To collect other supplies that I will need. When I get back, I see that starting this will have to wait a day until the berries are fully thawed. 5 lbs regular sugar – melted to liquid form. 15 tsp Ascorbic Acid.

Too much Blood in my Winestream. Homemade wine making. What I do, how I do it. October 16, 2007. I come home from work and head down to look. Yay! The airlock is bubbling away nicely. I open it up, and take a look. The mix needs to be stirred up every day during fermentation. I mix it up, as well as gently squeezing the bag of fruit, and close it back up. I will do this every day until fermentation is about done. Posted in Fruit Wine. Hey Glen cool blog! On October 16, 2007. On October 17, 2007. You are ...

Time to check in. | Too much Blood in my Winestream
https://fermentor.wordpress.com/2007/10/27/time-to-check-in
Too much Blood in my Winestream. Homemade wine making. What I do, how I do it. October 27, 2007. Time to check in. The wine has settled down now and its time to top it up. The majority of the sediment has fallen to the bottom and the color has taken on a darker tone. I set a light behind to try and capture the color. It looks kind of pink in the picture, but is really a lovely medium red. About the color of a perfectly ripe Raspberry. Posted in Fruit Wine. Laquo; Day 6. Leave a Reply Cancel reply.

Day 6 | Too much Blood in my Winestream
https://fermentor.wordpress.com/2007/10/20/day-6
Too much Blood in my Winestream. Homemade wine making. What I do, how I do it. October 20, 2007. SG was stable, so its time for the next step. First off, I sterilize a carboy. Now to drain the fruit bag. I do that the easiest way I know. Once it is draining, I put a filter mesh over the end of the syphon. These are great to keep the chunks from being sucked into the fermentor. So, I syphon all of the juice into the carboy, leaving as much of the lees behind as I can. It also smells heavenly! Get every ne...

Too much Blood in my Winestream. Homemade wine making. What I do, how I do it. June 19, 2008. The wine has settled down nicely and is bulk aging. I sampled a small glass and find that while the flavor has a nice solid raspberry taste, it is quite thin and still a bit tart. I may make a small batch of Strawberry to add in to give it some body. Not sure yet. Pondering my options. Posted in Fruit Wine. Laquo; Raspberry Wine. Leave a Reply Cancel reply. Enter your comment here. Address never made public).

Too much Blood in my Winestream. Homemade wine making. What I do, how I do it. March 22, 2008. Interestingly enough, the wine is still fermenting, albeit slowly. I think that it has had enough, so today I added in some metabisulfite to kill off any remaining yeast. I will let it sit with the airlock now for another couple weeks and test the SG again.

Too much Blood in my Winestream. Homemade wine making. What I do, how I do it. January 17, 2008. I took a look tonite and noticed that all activity has been stopped for a couple weeks now, and there was a lot of sediment that had built up on the sides and bottom of the carboy. I decided that it was time to rack the wine. I sterilized another carboy, etc etc. Racked the wine into it. Notice the sediment and film on the carboy. As you can see, it is very pale in comparison, but a lovely red color. Somehow ...
