Materials: grapes, rock sugar, main fermentor, stirring rod, storage container, gauze.
1, when choosing grapes, try to choose some ripe grapes, which are easy to ferment. Common grapes, raisins, horse milk, etc. can all be used to make wine.
2. Because the grape skin is likely to remain pesticides, it is very important to clean the grapes. It is best to clean them one by one, then rinse them repeatedly with tap water, and at the same time remove the rotten grapes. When washing grapes, put some flour in the basin, and then start to shake it. Flour can wash all the smallest places on the grapes that are not easy to clean, and then clean them with water.
3. After washing, spread out the grapes one by one and put them in a container that can leak water, until there are no water drops on the surface of the grapes. If you don't bother, find a clean soft cloth and wipe it one by one to ensure that the final brewed wine will not be sour.
4. You can use wine jars or ceramic jars. Glass bottles are ok, but plastic containers are not recommended. After the containers are cleaned, they must be thoroughly dried, otherwise the wine will be sour.
5. After washing your hands, gently pinch the grapes to open a small mouth, so that the grapes can be fully fermented. After crushing the grapes, spread a layer of grapes and sprinkle a layer of crystal sugar in the container, so that it can be fully immersed in the grapes. The ratio of grapes to crystal sugar is 10: 3, that is,10 kg of grapes put 3 kg of sugar.
6. Seal the wine jar. If it is a wine bottle with medicinal liquor, pay attention to cover the bottle cap tightly, and then cover the bottle cap with a tight plastic film. After sealing, jars (bottles) should be kept in a cool place. Do not flip or open the lid at ordinary times.
7. It takes about 20 days to a month for grapes to ferment in hot weather, and about three months is the best in winter. After unsealing, filter the grape skin floating on it with two layers of gauze, and you can drink wine directly. After unsealing, don't forget to cover the jar every time you scoop out the wine, so as not to volatilize the smell of the wine.
