1, raw material selection

When buying grapes, you can choose some mature grapes, even if they are scattered. These grapes are easy to ferment and the price is relatively low. Common grapes, raisins, horse milk, etc. It can be used to make wine.

Step 2 wash grapes

Because pesticides are likely to remain on grape skins, it is very important to clean grapes. It is best to clean them one by one, then rinse them repeatedly with tap water and remove the rotten grapes at the same time. Some people who like cleaning like peeling grapes to make wine, which is not bad, but it lacks some nutrients that Pete has.

Step 3 dry the grapes

Put the grapes in a container that can leak, and then pour them into the jar when there are no water drops on the surface of the grapes.

4. Select a container

Jars can be ceramic jars or glass bottles, but plastic containers are not recommended, because plastic is likely to react with alcohol and produce some harmful substances, which are harmful to human health.

5. Pick up the grapes and put them in the container.

After washing your hands, pinch the grapes directly. The operation method is to grab a handful of grapes and hold them hard, then put them in a jar and add sugar. The ratio of grapes to sugar is 10: 3, that is, 10 kg of grapes put 3 kg of sugar (friends who don't like sweets can put 2 kg of sugar, but they can't do without sugar, because sugar is an important factor in grape fermentation).

6, sealed preservation

Seal the jar. If it is a ceramic jar, you can order some wine paste at the store where you buy yellow rice wine. After adding water, paste and seal. After sealing, the jar should be placed in a cool place. Don't flip or open the lid at will.

Step 7 turn on

In hot weather, it takes about 20 days to a month for grapes to ferment. Now it takes about 40 days to make wine this season. After opening, take out the grape skins floating on it, and you can drink wine directly. Note that if you like the wine strong enough, just delay the unsealing time. After unsealing, don't forget to cover the jar every time you scoop the wine, so as to avoid the volatilization of the wine.

8. Pay attention to details

1, the grapes don't need to be washed too much, because the yeast needed for fermentation comes from the wild yeast on the grape skin. Excessive washing will greatly reduce the number of yeast, which is not conducive to fermentation;

2. In the early stage of fermentation, don't seal the lid too tightly, because at this time, the yeast is breeding and needs oxygen;

3. Open the lid when the fermentation is vigorous, because gas will be produced during the fermentation, and the container will be broken if the seal is too strict, and several layers of thin cloth will be covered.
