Good morning. I have brewed lots of wine from kits over the years but am starting to brew from fresh fruit and later this year will look at trying beer. I have a batch of wine started (last night) from apples from my property.

I ran a bunch of apples through a juicer, (tossed the juice and the pulp in a 5 gallon bucket) added water and sugar.. and boiled it to kill the wild yeast. after it cooled down to lukewarm I added yeast and now it sits.... starting weight is 1.080.

glad to be here and hope to learn lots from more experienced folks

Welcome! We can use more brewers as the hobby definitely seems to be in a downturn lately!
