Mango wine

[JasonH]

I actually just opened the 1st bottle from my batch the other day. It passed the test of my fiance and she is NOT easy to please when it comes to wine so I am happy about that. I ended up losing about 25% to sediment. Big bird has mangoes 1 for a buck right now and I'm trying to decide if I want to do it again.

Sorry tom, I think you would get arguments about leaving the skin on.

........ Big bird ......

LOL, cute, never heard it call that before. If you liked how it came out, do it again.

I think I'm going to hold off until next year. I should have a steady supply until then and hopefully I will have worked up the courage to process them.

Allergy to mango sap

A good reason to peel the mango is that 15-30% of people are alergic to the sap of the mango tree and is also found in the fruit peel. (Urushiol) I'm one of them. I peel and then wash my hands well. My carboy is clearing nicely. Can't wait to try it.
