I have a few recipes for Hawthorn Blossom wine. All of them speak about measuring the blossoms in quarts. Do I just use a quart measuring jug and fill it wice with blossoms? Do I press them down? I need some advice on this one!!

Hi Ian.
I just made this in the UK following a Terry Garey generic flower recipe. I used litres rather than quarts but yes, I loosely packed them. That is to say I poured them into the measuring jug and didn't press them down much, just to make sure none were stuck and holding the rest up unduly.
I dont know if you will have the same bother, but mine smelled a little unpleasant when I first steeped them but it smelled great when I got it started after about 5 days...
Good luck, Jim
