Hi all,
So, I'm planning to try and make some wine. I have a ton of fresh grapes, right off the vine...however not nearly enough to make my preferred 5 gallon batch.
So, here's my thoughts... I'm going to head home tonight, mash the grapes, strain just the juice, throw in some campden tablets and wait for 24 hours.
Then, I should be able to purchase juse Welch's 100% grape juice and top it off to 5 gallons, dissolve about 1 1/2lb of sugar, add that, mix and then pitch yeast correct?
Am I missing anything or any thoughts?
