I have not made wine before. I have 0$ to invest in this. There are so many sites to reference I just don't know where to start. Here is my idea. Please tell me any tips or where I might go wrong....
I have tons of free blueberries-sometimes other fruits through barter (want dry and crisp wine-any suggestions. I don't like sweet wine)
Sugar
Wine yeast from a friend
Plastic milk jugs gallons
Balloon with pinhole for airlock or no pinhole?
Plastic liter bottles
Do I :
Boil water, pour over crushed fruit, sugar, add yeast...all in gallon jugs.
Attach balloons to openings
How long to ferment?
When to strain?
Can I bottle into liter bottles now? Afraid they will explode if I do it to soon.
How long does it need before drinking?
Is there a step where the alcohol can be increased?
Thanks
