I use an old-fashioned, hand cranked meat mincer for my raisins, and find that does a better job than blitzing in any food processor. Picked up cheap from a charity shop.
There are enough sugars already in the bucket to get the yeasties interested, so I think I might add demerara after straining. I will probably use Gervin GV2.
I always expect to give anything involving elderberries at least a year, so I'll let you know how this turns out next Christmas.
