I am thinking of making a three berry fruit wine with blueberries, raspberries, and blackberries. They are in a prepackaged 3# bag from Sams. I was wondering if I use say 9# of the fruit, can I add a berry blend fruit juice with it to enhance the flavor? If so, how much juice should I use in the primary in addition to water? I will be making a 5 gallon batch. I have only 2 types of yeast right now EC-1118 and K1V-1116...any preference to which to use? And comparing recipes for the 3 berries I have I think this is what I will add:
Sugar to get proper SG
2 tbsp Yeast Nutrient
1 tbsp Yeast Energizer
3/4 tsp Pectic enzyme
2 1/2 tbsp Acid Blend
5 campden tabs
I usually do a yeast starter for my fruit wines but was thinking about doing the sprinkle method....never have done but which do yall think? All suggestions and help much appreciated!
