I put big fall ferment plans into place starting last spring, I gathered several pounds of peaches, strawberries, blueberries and raspberries. Then waited for grapes the fall to put with them.
I was excited, big plans, several hundred bottles all going at once, then it hit me! I do not have enough carboys
Currently I have all my carboys full and have 80lbs of Chancellor, 25 lbs of blueberries, and 20 lbs of raspberries in the freezer. The chancellor was from this fall but the berries have been in there since mid summer.
Do you think they will survive in the freezer until spring before I can start bottling without any ill effect on the wine or should I force myself to invest in more carboys this fall?
