I've got about 10 apples, 5 bananas, 8 oranges and 3 kumquats left over from the holidays. They are starting to... turn. They're getting spots and the bananas are black. I don't want to waste them, so I'm going to experiment with them and make a multi-fruit wine.
My LBS is closed until Wednesday and all I got is a small pack of distiller's yeast. My brother got it for me about two months ago and I've never used it before. Will this work okay? I'm not expecting this to taste like a $100 bottle of wine, but it's currently the only thing I've got.
What I've imagined so far, is I'm going to take and core the apples, peel the oranges and bananas, through them in the blender and then add some water, a little sugar, and boil. Once done, I had planned to filter the solids, although I was wondering if, if I don't, they will drop out during fermentation?
Anybody ever attempted something like this before? I shall call it, Fruit Cake Wine. Any suggestions on how this will turn out or what proportions I should use?
