Hello all,
I am a total newbie and signed up to ask a few questions to see if this is worth my time.
I live in Wisconsin. I have a peach tree loaded with peaches, but they are about 1-2 weeks out from fully ripening. I had a branch break off last night and I have about 100 peaches that are turning color, but still very firm.
I was simply going to compost the mess when a co-worker suggested making peach brandy or peach wine. He said, "Ain't too hard, water, sugar, yeast...let it sit for a few weeks to a month, strain it, and 'Poof', ...piece of cake. "
I have never tried this and do not know if the unripe fruit would even work. I have no equipment and wondering if it is worth my time.
Is anyone here willing to lend some wisdom?
Thanks,
Nivlaek
