fruit purees

[regulatedhobbyist]

Hey all,

it's been a while since I've been on here. I was thinking, never a good thing, that I could try and use one of those vinter's harvest fruit purees for my next melomel. Does anyone have any experience with these? If so how much should I use compared to "regular" or homemade fruit purees?

If you have used them? what recipes are you willing to share?

Dunno, they don't seem to be available here.

Is there any info about how many pounds weight, the puree cans equate to ?

As that'd be a good place to start.

I like to add my fruit by getting a basic country wine recipe, which often allude to between 3 and 4lb of fruit per gallon. I make a traditional, then add the fruit toward the end or after the ferment has finished, as I like plenty of fruity flavour, reminiscent of the original fruit, and not just a hint as you'd tend to get from including it all in primary.
