How to Make Wine from Grapes at Home

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

Step by Step guide to make wine at home from grapes. I have just sampled my first bottle after leaving it to mature for 10 months. It is the best wine that I have ever made. (Independently confirmed by my wife!)

    Excellent video. Very understandable and informative. My Aunt used to make chokecherry and blueberry wine when I was a kid. We lived out in the country and she would make some of each every fall. By the time to pick berries the next year the former year would be ready to drink. The chokecherry was kind of tart, but the blueberry was great. Only got a small taste, but when she was fermenting the berries the whole house smelled wonderful.

    Thanks for a informative article, here are a few more tips for how to make wine… Use the right equipment. Things like plastic buckets and bins come in different grades of plastic. You must use the food-grade plastic products not the cheaper buckets you might use to clean the floor! If plastic buckets and bins start getting scratched and grazed, replace them. The grazes will start harbouring microbes and eventually you’ll have a spoilt batch of wine. If stirring the must (the initial mix of fruit and water etc.) in a bin, scald the spoon with boiling water first to quickly sterilise it. Fill and top up airlocks with cooled, boiled water - not straight from the tap. Avoid metal spoons and sieves with fermenting wine - i.e. after the yeast has been added. Sometimes they can taint the wine. Avoid wooden spoons, which are hard to sterilise - plastic is far better. Reusing wine bottles is fine, ask friends to save them for you and check with local pubs or restaurants who are often willing to give them to you. Wash out immediately as a clean bottle will be a lot easier to sterilise when you come to use them. Rack your wine to clear it before bottling. That is, using a syphon tube, suck up the wine from one demijohn into another leaving the sediment (called lees) behind. The tubes with a base and valve are cheap enough and a make this quicker. Allow the wine to settle for a week and repeat if necessary before bottling Never judge your wine by the taste as you bottle it. Most often you will think it is a disaster. Some wines can take two years to mature. As a general rule, perhaps try a bottle after six months. If it tastes harsh, leave the rest for at least another 5 or 6 months. Allow time. Time is the great wine maker and you should never be in a rush. We’ve made wine that was nnine months in the demijohn before bottling and drunk it 3 years later. The following year it was even better! (I discovered these and why they work on Pavas grape plan website )

    I first made "wine" 35 years ago using wild berries and fruit in Irlande, I now live in France. I am gathering together the exuipement to make cider ( using your excellent recipe) and wine from my own grapes. I am so delighted to have found your videos , they are really excellent , to the point, no waffling and spot on good advice. On my very first attempt I did buy a hydrometer, kept careful notes and even did a secondary fermantation bringing some of my wine up to 18 degrees. I made 40 gallons and it was a great sucess. For those who are moaning about lab experiments, making wine is just that, but it is so much fun as the more you take it seriously the better will be the finished product. This man gives such wonderful advise , you need to make wine once just to realise how good he really is. His videos are absolutely the best I have ever come across. I have not looked at your site yet www.the gift of wine.com but if the videos are anything to go by, it will be a treat. All the work you do to bring your knowledge totally FREE to us, your viewers do dot realise how lucky they are. Merci beaucoup

This detailed video on how to make wine looks like a cakewalk compared to all grain beer brewing. Seriously, just do a bit of further research. You can buy all the tools to make wine for about £100 and that's being generous. Producing alcohol is extremely easy. But making quality products requires a research, experiments and experience. Its fun. Give it a go!

    guys are you serious? , thse are too much steps. i always make wine and enjoy it with only 4 steps 1_ buy grape juice with no preservation added. 2_ add to it cup off sugar. add the sugar to its original container . coz it is already sterilized. 3_ add small spoon of any yeas even bread yeast is good. 4_ last thing cover it with normal balloon. and make a hole in the balloon using a pin so bad air go out and in the same time outside air can't get in side. this balloon works like an airlock> and then just leave it for 5 days. and then enjoy drinking it after you filter it. and the more you age it the better it will taste

    its ok to stir at the beginning when the alcohol content is low. The problem comes later when the alcohol content is much higher as bacteria in the air could turn the alcohol into vinegar so thats why it is sealed - to keep bacteria and oxygen out (the bacteria needs oxygen to turn the alcohol into vinegar)

No fancy hygrometer, primary, secondary fermenting. Just start drinking. Supposed to be the best wine their is.

    For anyone interested, specific gravity means to measure the density of the liquid with reference to the density of water. If you dissolve loads of sugar in the water, then the density will be higher than just water alone. So you drop the float in the water and see how high it floats, the higher it floats, the more sugar is in your liquid.

    It depends on what your specific gravity is and how high you want the ABV to be, if you have a sweeter grape you would add more water, a not so sweet grape you could add sugar to get the gravity up. Also, he crushed a lot of the grapes off camera in order to save time

    James Back I've had people tell me they can taste the plastic if someone ferments in a plastic jug. Every person that has tasted my beer I can tell them I fermented in glass and they can't tell a single difference between my glass or plastic fermentations. If you get high grade plastic fermentation buckets there is no difference in taste. The problem with plastics is using them around heat. Just storing and fermenting will not leech anything harmful and will not alter the taste at all. While we brew test batches we use stainless steel equipment until we get to the point where the wort is cooled under 75 degrees then it either goes into the plastic or glass fermentors. I guarantee nobody can taste the difference. This coming from a brewer of 16 years.

I have had 100% success with out them so far..for sterilization I use 1/4 cup bleach to 1 gallon water, I also do not use corks but use the resealable Grolsh type bottle..

    @THEKIND253 The best test is to taste them - if they taste sweet and have a good flavour then they're ready. If they taste 'acidic' or 'tarty' then they are not quite ready - this flavour will give your wine an acidic taste. Colour is next - green grapes turn white or yellow, red take on a deep hue. Also if the birds are eating them that is a good sign.

    Thanks for a very interesting post, here are a few more tips for how to make wine… Use the right equipment. Things like plastic buckets and bins come in different grades of plastic. You must use the food-grade plastic products not the cheaper buckets you might use to clean the floor! If plastic buckets and bins start getting scratched and grazed, replace them. The grazes will start harbouring microbes and eventually you’ll have a spoilt batch of wine. If stirring the must (the initial mix of fruit and water etc.) in a bin, scald the spoon with boiling water first to quickly sterilise it. Fill and top up airlocks with cooled, boiled water - never straight from the sink.
