I've been having an odd day today - got a new 10l bucket and needed to do something with it - some people might say I'm mad but I just had to do this...
They say you can make wine from practically anything... :twisted:
Chop them up then add some chopped raisins and a handful of flaked almonds...
Add boiling water and you have sprout soup - the first step towards my sprout wine! :thumb:
So far it's made from 2lbs 8oz of shredded sprouts, 5oz raisins, 2oz flaked almonds, 1 tsp pectolaise and a crushed campden tab. Boiling water poured over along with a mug of strong tea. Then 3lb 4oz sugar stirred in and dissolved.
I'm going to leave it until tomorrow to take an og reading. Then I'll slice in a lemon and a couple of oranges to raise the acidity. Add a tsp of nutrient and a sachet of yeast, stand back and laugh maniacally! :rofl:
Any thoughts? :hmm:
