● Step 1: Buy grapes.
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. Ordinary grapes, raisins and mare's milk can all be used to make wine.
● Step 2: Wash the grapes.
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 remove the rotten grapes at the same time. Some clean people like to peel 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.
● Step 4: Select the 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 toxic substances, which are harmful to human health.
● Step 5: Pinch the grapes and put them in a 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).
● Step 6: Seal and save.
Seal the jar. If it's a ceramic jar, you can order some wine paste at a small shop where you buy yellow rice wine. After adding water, paste and seal. After sealing, the jar should be kept in a cool place. Don't flip or open the lid at will.
● Step 7: Unsealing
In hot weather, the fermentation time of grapes takes about 20 days to a month. Now it takes about 40 days to make wine this season. After unsealing, remove the grape skins floating on it, and you can drink the wine directly. Note that if you like strong wine, you only need to delay the unsealing time. After unsealing, don't forget to cover the jar every time you scoop the wine, so as not to volatilize the smell of the wine.
The above reprints are roughly the same, but there are different opinions for your reference:
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.
