frozen grape concentrate

Feb 27, 2006 2 Replies

do any of you expert wine makers have a recipe for this rookie,i have the additives and the fermenter and 6 gallon carboy,i allso bought 15 cans of frozen juice concetrate,i have read up on some recipe's.but i would like to have one that someone has already done themselves,thank you have a great day.



thsi topic comes up about 2-3 times a month. A search with google will give you a lot of ideas.

I make this type of wine in a 4 liter bottle. I use 3 cans of conentrate per batch 9each can of concentrate makes 1 1/2 quarts of juice) augmetned with 1 tsp of nutrient and 1/3 - 1/2 cup of sugar. That way I do not have to add so much sugar or any acid. I know jack kellers recipe uses 2 cans per gallon.

it takes about a week to ferment out, I then rack off of sediment, add sulfite and sorbate./ wait a week sweeten with a sugar syrup and bottle it for 6 mo to a year.

The one that many of us follows is on Jack Keller's Web site.

I have had good luck with the white but not with the red. Others make the red all the time.
