When using honey as a sweetener, how do you add the honey? Do you just dump it into the must or do you need to boil it in the water before adding it to the must?
The last strawberry wine I made it said to boil the water then pour that over the strawberries to extract the flavor. Is that needed.
I plan on making the following recipe.
Recipe:
12 lbs. strawberries (fresh)
6 lbs. honey
3 teaspoons acid blend
3/4 teaspoon tannin
3 teaspoons yeast nutrient
3 Campden tables
1.5 teasponns pectic enzyme
1 package Montrachet yeast
2.625 gallons water
