not best recipe I know, he makes few mistakes which potentially could ruin end results

Sounds good, the only thing I would suggest is freeze other 500g of blackberries, so ice crystals break all fruit walls inside for better extraction, then add defrosted about 2 weeks later or ever 3 weeks later for second, for real nice freshness, I do that with my meads, it works really nice :)

Nice, more interested people :) happy to hear, I am busy at the moment, but I will post tomorrow my recipe for blackberry wine I have made in past. Cheers

Hi, basically is same principles like in beer making, to make wine sweet is best IMHO to add non fermentable sugars, like lactose (which i dont really like for milky aftertaste) sucralose or stevia (my favourite) in small quantities, or add stopper to kill all yeast, but IMO stoppers is kind of...

No problem. Here we go. If You have 23/25 litre fermentor and want to do fruit fermentation (is that option did U mean?), You really need to leave a quite a bit of space in Your fermentor, coz on 2nd or 3rd day of fermentation, it will be very vigorous/foamy as hell. So 6-7kg of blackberries...

Moss_hops with WOW wines it can be long start, I wait for my wine 4-5 days, thinking that possibly some juice chemicals killed yeast, but it started and fermentatios goes as usual, the best option is not put dry yeast, make them liquid, bit of water, sugar, leave for 1-2 hours, then add to...
