Hey all,
I've got a three gallon batch apple juice concentrate wine made from a recipe in The Joy of Home Winemaking. I've made this before, and it's come out well, but I'm a relatively inexperienced winemaker, and I wanted to try my hand at adding some spice flavors wine. My idea is to split the three gallons up into three 1-gallon batches, and spice each one a different way for comparison. The problem is that I have no real clue what I'm doing. If any of you wine maestros out there has any suggestions on what to add and how much, I would greatly appreciate it.
I'll include the recipe at the end if that helps at all (it's very, very basic).
Thank you all!
6 cans Old Orchard 100% Juice apple juice
6 lbs sugar
3 tsp acid blend
3 tsp yeast nutrient
1 1/2 tsp pectic enzyme
71B-1122 Yeast starter
