I steam most of the fruit I use so I am not dealing with any pulp. I have not steamed blackberries in the past. My question is has anyone steamed blackberries and if so how many pounds of berries did it take to make up a gallon of juice? I know it will vary depending on the juiciness (that a word?) of the berries. The reason for the question is there is a fruit stand not far from me that sold the juice last year. If memory serves it was $32 per gal. I have 6 gal in the freezer that I was going to use for this purpose. Got them from my orchard. Have been informed by the "boss" that I can't have them all. I have made blackberry before from a kit and one time from scratch. I prefer the scratch method. My recipe calls for 5 lbs of berries per gal of wine. There for I'd need 25 lbs of berries. I'm thinking this should equate to about 1 gal of juice. Anybody know?
