I like to brew wine; It's only a hobby but I'm obsessed!
This is the place to be if you want to see what another brewer is up to or want some encouragement to start or diversify. I've posted heaps of recipes (clicky) and 2 wine-making vids (here for wine made from cartons of juice blog / youtube, and here for Blackberry wine on the pulp blog / youtube).
If you're new here then do explore, take this link for tips about where to find what you're interested in.

Recipe; Elderflower Quickie Wine, White Grape Juice only.

And this is pretty much an exact copy of the previous wine, but this time the only white grape juice is used.

Recipe: 5 Gallons

10 Litres White Grape Juice (Rio D'Oro)
3 Kg Sugar
5 Teaspoons Pectolase
3 Teaspoons Yeast Nutrient (Tronozymol)
3 Teaspoons Citric Acid
3 Teaspoons Tartaric Acid
Yeast (GV5, lees from previous must)
2 Loosely Packed Bags of Defrosted Elderflowers.

OG 1077

Method:

As previous wine.

Discussion:

The only things to say about this wine are -

The gravity was a little lower than the previous brew.

I reverted back to the ratio of acids used for the first two batches of this year's elderflower wine.
