I was able to get about 6.25 lbs of pitted green gage plums in the freezer as well as 2.5 lbs pitted red plums and thought I would try the following:
9 lbs alfalfa honey
yeast nutrient
yeast energizer
pectin enzyme
water to 3 gal in 4 gal carboy
10 gm Lalvin 71B yeast
2.5 lbs red pitted plums
Ferment in primary with 2.5 lbs red pitted plums until activity slows to nothing.
Rack into secondary for approximately 10 days or until major sediments fall.
Rack into tertiary onto 6.25 lbs green gage plums and let sit for 2 -3 weeks or so.
Rack to the fourth add campden and wait.
I have already started the primary in this experiment.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks,
