When selecting fruits, choose high quality fruits, not those that are cracked, rotten or moldy. Mold and other fruits with mold, used in fermentation winemaking, will lead to fruit wine with mycotoxins, such as aflatoxin and other mycotoxins are carcinogenic, in addition, this kind of moldy fruits fermentation, will produce more methanol, methanol is also a human body is harmful to the substance.

Cleaning fruits:

Many families have the habit of cleaning fruits with detergents such as dishwashing liquid or fruit and vegetable cleaners. Fruits used for brewing, due to dirt and dust and other impurities, so also need to be cleaned, but need to pay attention to is not to use detergent cleaning, otherwise, detergents will be removed to kill the natural yeast over the surface of the peel, not conducive to the brewing process of fermentation. Other families are used to washing fruits and vegetables with salt water, which is also not recommended for fruits used for winemaking. You can use cool white water to wash.

Brewing containers:

The containers used for brewing wine are very delicate, and it is recommended to use glass or ceramic containers, not plastic bottles and cans or metal containers made of stainless steel, aluminum, copper, iron and other materials, which will lead to the brewing of the fruit wine with high levels of hazardous substances in the containers.

Homemade Fruit Wine Tips:

Many people's knowledge of homemade fruit wine comes from wine, and they tend to be smart and use their knowledge of wine making directly to make other fruit wines. In fact, homebrewing other fruit wines should not be copied exactly from wine making techniques.

We know that grapes are not nuclear winemaking, however, some fruits must be removed from the nucleus before brewing, otherwise, the wine brewed not only has a bitter taste, the nucleus of the fruit fermentation will produce toxic and harmful substances. Loquat is necessary to remove the core of the wine, lychee to go without the core can be. Specific fruit nucleus or not, you can check the information or consult an expert authority, do not blindly imitate the technique of wine.

Distinguish between wine and wine:

We have to distinguish between wine and wine, many users confuse the concept of the two. Traditionally, like prune wine and plum wine, etc. is infused wine, not winemaking, the practice is to use white wine to soak the fruit, therefore, the production process does not need to consider the fermentation process and procedure, which is not really the meaning of fruit wine, can be said to be health care white wine; and brewing fruit wine, is the fermentation of fruit to get, it is necessary to strictly consider the fermentation process and procedure of the.

Based on the difference between soaking and brewing, we need to know what fruit can be brewed fruit wine. Many fruits can be soaked in wine, but not soak the fruit can be used to brew fruit wine, to rely on fermentation to produce alcohol, containing starch or sugar fruit to brewing, some fruits with low sugar or starch content, it is necessary to add sugar or icing sugar into the auxiliary fermentation.

It's best to choose fruits with high sugar content to make fruit wine, rather than fruits with high starch content, as high starch fruits produce higher levels of methanol during the brewing process.

Also, after the fruit wine is made, please be prepared to taste it, it may be very sour or spicy or have some strange flavor, if it is too weird, please do not drink it again.
