Orange Wine Day 2

[getrecked786]

Hi all,

I wanted to show you my brew I just started the other day so I could hopefully get some useful tips on what to or not to do in this process.
The recipe I used came from one of my favorite youtubers, and you can view the video I used here:


I'll have a few pictures attached with my setup. I've put the containers on a surround sound Amp as it radiates warmth (not HEAT) passively. I'm hoping that will speed up primary. I don't have an airlock but I do have balloons for after day 3 or 4 (need an opinion when) because from what I understand, air is important for the 1st few days.
Please me know your thoughts, I would really appreciate it!

I have never had luck with o j wine, I assumed too much acid in the juice, warmth and patience are the 2 virtues when making wine. The first 3 days can be wild, so an open air relief is a good idea, when the bubble build up on the ring settles down, capping with an airlock is a good gauge to monitor for completed fermentation.

Thank you Mr. Coffee,

I'll make sure to do that! I'll post an update when I do something worth reading!

I really appreciate it,
Austin

Please do post updates. I would have never thought that OJ could be made into a wine.

I made some out of an orange juice/citrus juice base.

It was horrible in my opinion.
It tasted like, the taste you get when you get a bit of throwup in the back of your throat.
