I made my first batch of plum wine today from Aldi's canned plums.
For a 1 gallon plus batch:
3 - 32oz cans of Aldi's canned plums
3 lbs sugar
9 pints water
1/2 tsp pectin enzime
1 tsp acid blend
1/2 tsp yeast energizer
1/2 tsp yeast nutrient
1 crushed Campden tablet
Opened the cans. Drained the juice into the bucket. Removed the pits from the plums. Placed the plums in the mesh bag. The plums were nice and soft so it was easy to mash them up in the bag. Added everthing to the bucket. SG at 1.100
I'll be pitching the yeast tomorrow. I did eat 1 plum just for a quality test and it was not bad at all.
