How many days can you ferment on the fruit in cool weather? I am running some pear batch's and do not have a press. Thanks Mike
Racked of batch number two today. I took the fruit out two days ago and ran thru a processor and returned to the primary. Today I got 6 and 1/2 gallons of wine. I only added about four and a half gallons of water to start. I believe I got a lot more product than from batch one. Only difference to start was ten more lbs of pears and ten lbs of peach's and it took two buckets to hold everything. The color is a lot more yellow as well some due to the peach i am sure. Hoping not to lose more than a half gallon due to settling of lees. Mike
