The juice has been fermenting for about 2 weeks and it is still bubbling, but when should I rack (I think that is the term) the wine? Also I purchased a wine filter. Is it a good idea to filter the red wine? People say that you will lose the flavour by filtering? Is this true?
where can i find white grapes to purchase i've made different types of wine but not yet the white grapes, Thank you for your help!...
Where do you live?? I would do an internet search and see if there are any wineries that will sell you grapes or home winmaking shops in your area.
It is all a matter of equipment and the love of the process.
I have always made from whole, fresh, grapes and (with 2 exceptions) would not trade a moment of this family and friends activity.
The equipment you need depends on the amount you wish to make. If you are making a small amount, say 1 to 10 gallons, then you can make a press using two 5 gallon plastic buckets. You can pick up a cheap crusher pretty easily.
