Wine making
We used two recipes to make wine.
The first recipe is from the hackeria website - Project 16: DIY Fermentation or the Art of making Wine.
The process :
• Mash 1kg of white grapes, sugar and 6l water
• Heat the mash
• Mash the mass again and let cool down below 40 degrees Celsius
• add 10g yeast mixed in lukewarm water
• Pour the mass and yeast in the fermentor, that's been disinfected before
• Insert in the fermentor and seal the top
• place the end of the tube in a disinfectant to prevent oxygen, bacteria from entering it
• Fermentation process 14-19 days
• Filter wine
The second is recipe for a homemade wine:
• blend 1kg of red grapes, filter the grape juice
• add 1cm ginger, 2 cinnamon barks to the grape juice and boil it
• add honey to taste
• strain out the cinnamon, ginger and let the mixture cool down
• when it's lukewarm, add yeast
• pour the mixture in a bottle and keep it in a dark, cool place
• after a week, check the wine, remove foam from top without mixing it (repeat weekly for a month)
