Just a quick updated on this. Seems that time fixes problems by itself. The Passion fruit wine now tastes great without having to do anything. Isn't wine amazing?
Hi Everyone
As there seems to be fresh Pumelo fruit in the market, I thought I'd try making wine out of it. Searches on the web only yield reviews of the wine which declare that it is a good wine. I have not found a recipe though and am hoping that someone on this site can help me as they...
Thanks for your valuable suggestions. By the time the new batch is ready, the 1st batch would have completed a year. So to adjust with the new batch, should need 6 months post that. Patience is the key I guess. Thanks for your valuable advise.
Hi Everyone
Last year I made some passion fruit wine that turned out too sour and so I added some sugar to it to make it sweeter. Sadly, the sugar became too much and it turned out too sweet. It's been in storage for the past 8 months.
I have some new passion fruit vines growing and...
I too had used gooseberies that were greenish white. To get the golden color I added some lightly caramelized sugar. Net result was a whiskey colored wine.
I made two batches of gooseberry wine using a very simple recipe. You can check it out on my post (there is a picture of the finished product also). Since we don't get winemaking ingredients such as pectic enzyme, tannins, etc., only yeast has been used. I suppose you can refine it using the...
Made a new batch of Gooseberry wine. Came out much better than the first batch but am unable to understand why since I followed the recipe the exact same way - Go figure. The colour was better - like a single malt. Got good reviews from my friends who tasted it.
Hi everyone
Thought that I'd share a picture and recipe of a very basic gooseberry wine that I just made. As Indian palettes like it sweet rather than dry, some of you may find the sugar content too much. Anyways, here goes:
Ingredients:1) Gooseberry - 1 kg 2) Sugar- 1kg 3) Raisins – ¼ kg 4)...
Thanks a ton stress for your valued comments and suggestions.
For the Jackfruit wine - there were 2 suggestions given for getting the base - one was to boil the jackfruit and use the solution (srilankan Recipe) and the other was to grind the fruit after boiling (Indian). Grinding is where I...
An update from my end: Started a batch of Gooseberry wine thanks to my next door neighbor who has a tree. The yeast is working its magic and it smells really good. I am looking forward to the 3 weeks to end so that I can caramelize and bottle it, not forgetting of course to taste some of it...
Thanks to all you for your warm welcome. In India we are handicapped by lack of basic requirements such as wine yeast or any other supplements - we have to make do with baking yeast :D
Jack fruit was just an experiment and it really was destined to fail but no worries on that score. 99.9% of...
Hello everyone
Although I registered on this forum a month back I finally decided to get active here given that there is a wealth of knowledge to be explored.
Am from Bangalore in India and am new to wine making and have just made 2 batches of grape wine with reasonable success (read that...
