Homemade wine can be drunk after two months of sealing, and the second fermentation is simply a matter of fishing out the grape skins, and then re-barrelizing the cloudy wine and placing it in a cool, low-temperature place for fermentation.

During the early stages of wine fermentation, don't seal the lid very tightly, because this is the time when the yeast is multiplying and needs oxygen. You can cover the mouth of the container with a plastic sheet or plastic wrap, and then tie it gently with a leather band, so that the gas generated inside the container can be discharged automatically without over-oxidizing the wine.

Primary fermentation is generally no more than 10 days, if the time is too long easy to turn into vinegar, generally the grape skins are fully discolored, and there is a tendency to sink for the best time to open the seal, fish out the grape skins floating on the top, and filter out the bottom of the barrel of the grape seeds and too much wine mud. The cloudy wine was then re-barrelized and entered into secondary fermentation.

Secondary fermentation does not require too much human intervention, carried out in a sealed environment to prevent the entry of oxygen, to be placed in the fermentation bucket in a cool, low-temperature place, but if the filtering of skins and seeds of the wine is still intense gas production, you need to continue to use a plastic sheet to tie the mouth of the plastic cloth gently, after two days no longer intense gas production, that is, the plastic sheet tied the mouth to seal.

Generally sealed for two months, the wine body can be completely clarified, with a straw through the siphon principle to draw out the supernatant, you can drink.
