Well I am starting a new adventure in wine making for me. I have made a few kits, some fair and some good, none great, now I am going to make my first wine from fruit. I am using Frank Keller’s recipe for Loquat wine, 1 gallon. I hope to harvest enough for a 6 gallon batch.
1, It calls for 4 lbs of fruit for 1 gal, can I freeze the ripe fruit while I wait for the other to ripen?
2, The recipe has wine yeast and Nutrient but no amounts, How much nutrient do you think?
3, I was planning on using Lalvin 71B or ICV D47, which one or other suggestions?
Side note: My Muscadine vines, I have 2, are starting to produce and hope to get enough this fall to make a gallon or two.
