I put this in here because I think it is closer to cider than it is to grape wine.. anyway. Tried experimenting with a litre of peach juice. Pitched the yeast (bread yeast) about a month ago, I noticed it had stopped fermenting after about 2 weeks although I was so busy I left it there for an extra 2 more and just opened it up last night. I noticed there was a huuuge amount of sediment also but figured it was just because the juice I used was very thick peach juice from the shop. Anyway, taste was horrible to say the least! Very very sour and completely undrinkable. I could definitely taste alcohol, or maybe it was just because of the sourness I felt like it was stronger.
Any ideas what could have caused this? It was at quite low temps, I guess mostly going between 5c and 15c, but ferment seemed to work ok, lots of bubbles and co2 coming off for the first 2 weeks.
