I started my very first batch of wine ever on Saturday. It's a blueberry wine that calls for 12-15 pounds of blueberries, but the guy said that 15 lbs is best. I had approximately 14 pounds of them for this wine. I had washed, sorted, and prepped all of them or so I thought. Everything was added in the bucket and wine started Saturday. Sunday I added the yeast, but I discovered a 2 pound package of blueberries sitting the fridge yesterday. I assume it's too late to add them now that things are fermenting. I'm hoping 12 pounds is okay for a 5 gallon recipe. The color looked more like a dark red than that purply color I typically see in blueberry wine. I assume it just means I'll have a lighter bodied wine. Will this affect the wine? Thanks!
