I've got a grape vine in my yard that produces a whole crap load o' grapes. The flavor is very good - sweet as can be. The problem is they are a bit of a pain to eat because they have some sort of weird membrane in them holding the juice - sort of like a placenta:rockin:
Anywho, I want to crush them up and use them for a variation of EdWort's apfelwine. How should I go about this without infecting the batch? I don't think I should heat the juice up, and I really don't want to add a bunch of booze.
Any good ideas? I can't just toss them in and ferment, can I? Will the alcohol build strong enough to kill the nasties?
