Frozen Must/Brehm Vineyards Help...

Oct 17, 2003 2 Replies

Hi folks,


Well I was late getting started this year and my local grape supplier is out of fruit. I'm really bummed but then thought I could try frozen must from Peter Brehm. At this point I have 3 successful wine kits and one batch of wine from fresh grapes under my belt. While I think the wine kit results have been excellent, my fresh grape wine (sangiovese) is just ok.. Given the cost (although I'm sure the quality is excellent) I'm worried about working with frozen must. The Zin grapes I want have a high sugar level and need to be reconstituted with acidulated water. I'm not familiar with that process and worry I could ruin the whole batch. Any thoughts/advice on how to best proceed would be appreciated.


Thanks in advance.


If you go to Brehm's website, you will find many helpful articles on treating your musts, including one on diluting with acidulated water.

Buy from Brehm...you won't regret it. Their grapes are much better than anything I'm able to get on the east coast.
