Just bought some blackberry grape juice to hopefully add to the juice i get from these little bleeders. going to be difficult to remove every pip from these blighters so may just have to throw the lot in and then strain off on the first rack...

    Good evening, I have just been given approx 2 1/2 pounds of black grapes. Is this amount enough to make a demi john of wine? If so is there a decent recipe to make this? Thanks Craig

    Elderberry wine

    Many thanks for your advice. I have 4x 25 litre buckets for my other wine and 2x demi John's. I'm assuming the 2 demis will equate to 2 gallons? That's the max I can do at present.

    How to make Turbo Cider.

    The last one i did was actually really nice, i used apple juice and red grape juice and added some blackcurrant juice to the Dj when it had finished fermentation. I guess its all an experiment to find the end result that works. Thanks for your post danmac.

    How to make Turbo Cider.

    Good morning, i am currently in the process (day 5) of my first batch of TC in a Demi John, the fermentation is going really well as the contents have come through the airlock, which to me shows the yeast is working well. My question is now one of what do i do next once this process has...
