12 Litres Aldi Orange Juice 10% sugar.
100 grams Sugar
Tannin, strong cup of tea with 3 tea bags
2 tsp Glycerine
2 tsp Citric Acid
2 tsp Pectolase
4 grams CL23 champagne yeast
Just warmed 2 litres of OJ up a little to dissolve the sugar. Added it all to my 15 litre FV. Sprinkled the yeast on top. Put it in the brew fridge at 20C
I'd never intended to make this until I read this thread.

Anyhow for one or two reasons I decided to make it.
I'm going to bottle this with about 9 grams of sugar per litre so it'll end up sparkling.
I've always put malic acid in my ciders, but tonyhibbett suggested citric acid for orange. A quick google found that indeed, people do use citric acid in orange wine so I thought I'd give it a go.
I don't usually go to Aldi. However I've been told their juice is actually made by a well known brand here in Australia. I bought a couple of bottles. My son says the apple juice is great, but the apple and mango awful. I had a mouthful of this, and I wouldn't say it's the best orange juice, but then again I don't drink it very often.
