Wine can not only be bought in supermarkets but also made by yourself. Summer is the season for eating grapes, and it’s also the time to make wine. There are six main steps to make wine at home: wash the grapes - mash the grapes - choose a container - put the grapes and sugar - seal and store for fermentation - secondary fermentation. Our wine is done.

1. Wash grapes

When buying grapes, you can choose some ripe grapes, clean the grapes one by one, and remove the rotten grapes.

2. Crush grapes

Dry the washed grapes, or wipe off the water on the grapes, and crush the grapes without water to promote fermentation time. .

3. Choose a container

Choose a container. The wine jar can be a ceramic jar or a glass bottle, but plastic containers are not recommended because plastic is likely to react chemically with alcohol. , and produce some toxic substances that harm human health.

4. Put it in the container

Pinch the grapes and put them in the container, put a layer of grapes, then sprinkle a layer of sugar, repeat to the top layer and add more sugar .

5. Seal and store

Cover the mouth of the container with two layers of plastic wrap, press the plastic wrap into the mouth of the bottle with your fist, tie it tightly with a rubber band, and cover it with a lid. After sealing, the wine jar must be stored in a cool place. Do not flip or open the lid at will.

6. Secondary fermentation

After the grapes have been fermented for about a month and the grape skins have turned white, you can use two layers of gauze to filter out the grape skins, grape seeds and other impurities. . The filtered grape juice is put into a container for secondary fermentation. This period of time also changes with changes in ambient temperature, and generally takes 15-30 days. After secondary fermentation, it is ready to drink.
