How to Make Wine from Fruit The Only Wine Recipe You Will Ever Need- Part II - Racking Wine

Рет қаралды 124,740

Күн бұрын

This is how you make wine from fruit. This video series concentrates on the making of wine directly from fresh picked fruit or frozen fruit. It is relatively simple once you know the equipment you need and the necessary ingredients and the process of turning fruit into wine. This is Part II of a 3 part series of making wine. (Racking)
It is a great hobby and if you like wine, you can not beat homemade wine that you have made. You can share with your friends or just keep it all to yourself. Once you get the equipment and ingredients you can make wine from .50 cents per bottle to 3.00 dollars per bottle which is cheap.

I made your wine using your recepi and it came out amazing. Just a thought, this is what I did, I skipped the entire racking procedure and just let my wine sit for about 4 months and then I used a clamp to adjust my hose to go just above the sediment by about 2 inches and bottled straight. It turned out fantastic. The last bottle got a little sediment in it which we drank right away on the spot.😀

When I rack my wine, I put the siphon on the bottom, then start it in a separate bottle to get the little sediment that is in it out of the main batch. I put my thumb over the hose after one second, then put it in the empty carboy - making sure to not let the siphon move at all on the bottom. At the end I put the remaining wine and sediments into a beaker to harvest what clears up in a few days.

If you are always using carboys to rack use an empty one and set your siphon down in till it is about an inch off the bottom (or however much you want it) then put a mark on the large siphon tube so you know.

I once had orange wine many years ago. It was delicious. My friend Al’s father in law made it. He’s been deceased for many years, so of course, l can’t ask him fo the recipe. Is it possible you could give it a try? If you could, you would go to the head of the class! :) l can find fruit wine in the stores, but never orange wine. I wouldn’t imagine there are many people out there who make orange wine. So, you may be unique! In any event, a salute! You’ve done a great job! Thank you!

Make it so when you rack after fermentation you end up with a full 6.5 gallon carboy. When you rack off the Lees later, rack into a 6 gallon carboy. (No need to top off with different wine) I have the screw on lids for canning jars. I've drilled holes for grommets and airlock! So any extra wine that may not fit in a carboy goes into a smaller vessel to top off with later if needed. So I have pint, Quart, half gallon, gallon, 2 gallon, 2.5 gallon, 3,5,6,6.5 gallon vessels!

I'm following along your videos and I am really impressed with how you have things organized. I am in the middle of making two small (1 gal) batches from store bought fruit juice. Things are going well but I am definitely interested in your recipe for my next attempt. I really like the professional approach and yet drawn to the simplicity. But in this video I am puzzled by one aspect. I think I understand the importance of reducing the headspace after racking. But I guess I wonder why one would want to add wine to top off that space. Even though it's a small amount, it seems intuitively like you are changing what you have just made. Even if you add water, that's an alteration. Maybe it isn't noticeable .... but then again, how would you know since you don't have two jugs (one with the additional and one without). Is there another way to accomplish this? Could you have racked into say, two containers that would leave a small amount leftover that you could drink? I suppose where it makes sense to add additional wine is when you have the same kind of wine from a previous batch. But if not, it sounds like water is the way to go? Possibly it would make sense to look at the headspace and if it's just too much, rack into two smaller containers. You can tell that I'm new to this, but making sense of this is important and equally important is trying to understand the nuances, especially between various home brewers. Thanks for wading through and digesting this lengthy post!!

Yes the best way to top off a carboy is with same wine preferably dry and that's number one option...i can do the because i have so much wine on hand but starting out you will not Have that. .. but don't hesitate to mix wines.. adding a banana wine to a new batch of strawberry will give you a cream flavor ths5t is amazing... 2nd option is water and you will see me do this Many times on this channel... one you may like is adding sanitized marbles to eliminate headspace.

I would not top off with sugar water. You could start fermentation again and that could be a problem. If its not much you can just use tap water.

I believe topping off with 94 % grain alcohol will kill any robust yeast and fortify the wine. Displacing oxygen in headspace with Co2 is another option. Co2 gas from dry ice, small Co2 cartridges or regulated tank will displace oxygen even if headspace is extreme, (10 liters in a 20 liter carboy). I believe nitrogen gas would also work, but I haven't tried it yet.

@@HowToDoneRight I Before I retired I was a molecular biologist. We regularly stored frozen yeast or bacteria for long periods of time (a year on up to almost indefinitely) but we also used a lot of lab equipment. You could store refrigerated yeast from the mat on the bottom of your fermentation for a few weeks but properly frozen could last at least a year. For frozen you add 10% glycerol (NOT glycerin) final to your yeast slurry. You could safely freeze the cells for long term storage that way. Just thaw to room temp and use whenever needed. The glycerol is a sugar and safe for use with your fermenting. What it does is prevent ice crystals from forming and cutting up or damaging the cells. Good all the way down to -80 C or -112 F.
