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 add sugar when there is no water drop 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, pour the sugar into the grapes and pinch the grapes with your hands. The operation method is to grab a handful of grapes and squeeze them so that the sugar can be fully immersed in the grapes. Then put it in the jar (the kind of wine bottle used to make medicinal wine can also be used). 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. If it is a wine bottle containing medicinal liquor, pay attention to cover the bottle cap tightly, and then cover the bottle cap with a tight plastic film. After sealing, the jar (bottle) should be kept in a cool place. Don't flip or open the lid at ordinary times.
● 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 opening, filter out the grape skins floating on it with two layers of gauze, and you can drink 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.
