Simple Grape Juice Wine
Using concord grape juice makes a decent wine. A little plain and a little sour. Want to try deacidification and adding oaking.
Per gallon of juice
- 1 t yeast nutrient
- 1/2 t wine tannin
- 1 t citric acid
Add Sugar to get to about 15% PABV. I added some oak last time, but it hardly made a difference. Try 15g/gal next time.
Current Batch
Started at 8% PABV = 720 g/gal, goal is about 16% PABV = 1417 g/gal. D = 697 g/gal, at 6 gal, = 4Kg in 3 batches
- 2 Kg
- 1 Kg
- 1 Kg
Sugar
At 6 gal, 4Kg of sugar was just a little too much, next time drop to 3Kg (1.5Kg, 0.75Kg, 0.75Kg).
