Picked 16 lbs of brambles (and have the scratches and nettle stings to prove it), 4 lbs extract is already as juice and another 4 lbs on the go as we speak, this is to make bramble jelly. This is using the ordinary simmering method, not steam extract.
That leaves me with 8 lbs of brambles to make 2 gallon of wine. How much more wine could I make if I bunged in the 'solids' from the 8 lbs of extracted juice ?
To help me come to a decision, just what are the pros and cons of leaving the fruit solids in the wine at the early stages, or removing them and just using the juice obtained from them ? Cheers, Tony.
