Hi guys,
I've decided to take up home brewing and as I had some strawberrys at home decided on making a strawberry wine.
I found a recipe online and have followed it closely, but after a bit more Reading I'm not sure of I've found the best way amy help and advice would be great.
so I started with 2kgs strawberrys and mashed them up added in 1ltr of filtered water and 1kg granulated sugar. I left this overnight stirring 3x throughout the day. I then added pectolase and left for a further 24hrs.
I then strained the juice into a sterilised pot and put the must back in my fermenter and then added another litre of filtered water and repeated. I added citric acid, yeast nutrient and wine yeast to the juice and then siphoned onto a demijohn.
I am now at day 5 of fermentation in the demijohn and it's still bubbling away.
