Easy Homemade Natural Wine 

One of the best videos out there to explain how to make natural wine at home! Thanks for sharing!

Good video. So few around of real natural winemaking, showing how simple it is. All videos about winemaking always go down the add-sugar-and-nuke-the-natural-yeast-so-you-can-add our-industrial-yeast route and other chemical winemaking procedures. People - you don't need ANYTHING except the grape to make great wine. A grape is its own wine starter kit - it self ferments once crushed. Don't let them fool you into thinking anything else. All you need is a jar. As an aside, so glad natural winemaking and natural wines are finally making some broader inroads. And I totally agree that really refined wines are so boring these days. Once you switch your pallet to natural wines, the oak heavy Cab's just lose all their luster.

Perfect...you have no idea how many videos I watched before I found yours, Plain and simple,No chemicals. THANKS again.😉

I enjoyed your video. Loved your presentation style... Your tutorial was exactly what I was looking for! NATURAL, QUICK, UNCOMPLICATED, INEXPENSIVE....I'm starting my batch today... Thanks for sharing. Peace, Blessings & Success

Awesome video!!! Alot of information, continuous info and no bs! 👍🏻👍🏾👍🏿

You offered a lot of good points that cleared things up to me. Thanks from KSA plz, keep going

Thank you for this informative video! I’m so excited to make my first batch and this video is super inspiring

I made natural grape wine following your instructions last year. It turned out really well. Very tasty wine, almost like a dessert wine. Thank you. I can't wait to make a blackberry wine.

I'm on day 2 of fermentation now, following your instructions. It's going strong, smells like wine already! Thank you for the vid!

boy do you get after it... you don't waste time describing this process ...thanks and good job !!!

Thankyou for sharing this great natural wine recipe ❤️❤️

really cool info and really cool dude. Keep up the cool work! Thank you

Thanks dude, I made a few week Swedish period Wild Cherries a try and this worked, very well explained, Thanks!

There's no need to burp a balloon cap to release CO2. What you can do is just use a thumbtack to pierce the balloon at the top of the neck where it won't be touching the bottle or jug you use. Then as pressure builds up in the balloon, the CO2 will eventually exit the tiny hole at a rate matching the fermentation gas release. Pressure will always be higher inside the balloon guaranteeing that zero O2 or anything else can ever enter the bottle. In effect, the tiny hole serves as a tiny but very reliable one way gas valve.

Finally a great winemaking video! Thx!

Thanks, great quick tutorial!

Amazing video! I wish you made a video about 5-6 gallon winemaking. Very Thorough!

Bottling know-how please! I like your introduction to making wine, I would love to follow the bottling process too... that's if I don't drink it all first LOL

Great video! easy and informative.

Will try looks easy and taste great

Great stuff! Thanks!

I'm curious if you made your bottling video? I would love to see that but did not find it on your page.

Perfect video man

Loved your video, thank you! Any tips on making an organic elderberry wine?

thank you sir great information

Great video!

thats how wine should be made. easy and no chemicals added in for the sake of ''better results'' i started my 2nd batch of wine about 5-6 days ago, and its still bubbling. the contents of the brewing bucket is: -20% grapes -3% sugar (used both crystalized and powdered sugar) 2 bags of bakers yeast (around 0.5% of the bucket) -76.5% water every day whenever i feel like the fermentation has slowed down, i opened up the bucket to stirr it for about 5-10 minutes to gas out the wine and of course mix it up properly. when it was 3 days into brewing. i deceided to open it up and mush up the grapes even more, i failed to mush up many of the grapes when prepping. after its done brewing. im going to remove the solid bits, squeeze out the remaining wine from the solid. and let the wine sit in a same bucket (cause i made the bucket with airlock built into it and its the only thing i got that has airlock on it) for about few days, while also every now and then mixing it to de-gas the wine. the reason why theres so little grapes and so much water and sugar is because i didnt have enough grapes.

Thanks for your interesting video, questions please: -After end of 1st fermentation in open container, when no more air bubbles, is there disadvantage of keeping the wine in same container for few days to confirm 100% completion of fermentation alcoholic. -Ditto for 2nd fermentation malolactic. -Is there disadvantage of keeping the wine with all residues without any filtration in 2nd fermentation malolactic.

Please make a follow up video about bottling. Excellent video

Thank you for your video! before I try this I want to ask how long do I fermented? when I know it is ready? for the smell of wine? I want my wine to have alcohol but not crazy heavy. I love that it is no sugar or special "wine yeast". Back in the day they didn't have any of that stuff, they worked with the natural sugars of the fruits.

Nice. I need to start growing more berries.

Great video!! I’m starting the process soon. I made a fermentation starter with blue and black berries sugar and water is that ok to use instead of honey?? Also do you not add sugar and or water?

third year with lots of grapes from a effortless vine, I'll try this first time! wish me luck! Emi from Uruguay! Question! If I would like to flavor this wine, give it a perilla leave, or some sort of corean identity, what would you do?

Awesome God bless you

Thanks for your instruction How do i know if my vine is safe and there is no methanol in it?

Great video! It's been a big help so far. Is it safe to use 91% isopropyl alcohol when sanitizing my equipment? I've been spritzing my spoon with it before I stir my must in primary fermentation. Of course, I wait for it to dry. I just want to make sure that it won't effect my wine. Thanks.

Very cool! What’s the alcohol content? I heard it’s very low for fresh wine.

Just what I was looking for- simple. Noah was the first winemaker.

I am trying to work through this myself and ran into a snag. I used 3 pints of blueberries and two small packages of raspberries, macerated them and put them in a glass fermentation jar with some honey. After a couple days I started to get some really good fermentation. I ended up leaving it for a month, and it continued to vent gas through the glass lid (which is covered with water to prevent anything from getting in). We drank the wine last week, and what I found is that it had definitely brewed (got some warm fuzzies lol), but it tasted very, very sour like Warheads. What did I do wrong?

Thank you for this. I wanted to make wine the way they did in Jesus days. The most natural way

Can you make a follow up video? Thank you

Let's say I used mostly grapes but could I also throw in other fruits like grapefruits or lemons to get some interesting flavors or would that mess it up?

Great video! I did exactly what you said and my wine turned out great! Starting my next batch today with grapes and strawberries. Thanks for the info : )

I am looking for a red, white, and orange natural wine from the country of Georgia. What are a few popular ones of each and where can I find these? There are so many and I don’t know where to start.

Covering the bottle with cloth in the long fermentation process is good?

I just wasnt clear on how long you left it in thr crock for once fermentation starts, is it a few days keep stirring until fermentation slows a bit?

We had three buckets of grapes my wife wanted to make grape juice and syrup from (she’s not a drinker) but now we have several kilos of grape pomace still quite moist and it’s be ripper if I could ferment it into wine then maybe even freeze distill it. Since it’s been boiled all the natural yeast no longer exists and I don’t have raw honey on me right now. Two questions: will the pomace still ferment from wild yeasts? I assume so, since it’s everywhere, but a definitive answer would be cool. Secondly, as a baker I know sugar doesn’t activate the yeast but in this case, would some form of sugar help/encourage fermentation? Any tips on getting these pre-boiled dregs fermenting would be killer. Thanks!

Thank you for this video! Is there a reason that cloth is needed to cover the first round of fermentation? Could a plastic lid work? Also, if you're not planning to strain out the grape musts, is there a need to transfer this batch to a different container/carboy? My container has an airlock, so I'm curious if this airlock can be used for both the first fermentation, and the second fermentation?

So after you strain the mash out, how long do you leave it before drinking or bottling ?

Hi, love the video. I’m doing it now. How long for the second fermentation?

hello can i add water in the must or should it be pure grapes only?

Making a fruit punch wine as we speak. Strawberries, blackberries, blueberries, and a little banana. Very curious how it's going to turn out. I did green grapes and strawberries that made a pink wine that turned out pretty good.

Only way to farm right there!!!

Just to clarify - that second fermentation, obviously it’s gonna be nuanced, but what general timeline? Weeks? Months?

Where do you store your container while it is first fermenting?

Another question, please. If I do not want any honey, can that still work? Let me know.

Thanks for the great information in this video Farmer Jessie. I’m making 10 lbs of grapes with 2 lbs strawberries. Would you recommend using lemon juice to compensate for malic acid? If so, how much? Thanks!

how long do you leave it before you separate the wine from the residues?

Do I need put sugar, I am asking cause I didn't saw you putting it

I have questions! Yeah, I know I'm 2 years late, but still, PLEASE! No water added? No sugar? Or are they optional? What's the difference?

So do you add any sugar or just use the natural sugars?

Is it possible to get more specific amounts?

How many days do you let it long ferment?

Nice... nice.

How many lbs of grapes does it take to get a gallon of wine?

I have another question for you as a newbie in wine making I too don't like to insert chemicals in the wine process,my question is to stop long fermentation what's the best method to stop fermentation,is freezing the wine or heating it the answer and if so will the wine spoil or lose it's delicate flavors doing so,thank you in advance,luv your channel

How long many days/weeks do you continue to burp it?

Star Gooseberry can do? We have alot here

how long in each stage to let sit?

Awesome video! I’m new to any kind of wine making. I don’t think so, but to be sure...do you wash the grapes before starting?

I’d love the bottling video as well

Can you use frozen berries? Also would a few bay leaves work for the tannins?

Can I use normal honey as yeast

~~~ O~~~○》yeei enjoyed this video you made. ...Gave me some great information...thank you..

how long do i have to wait before sipping a glass of it ,,i mean just till most fermentation stops or even while still fermenting,,,any good timeline ?

Don't you think a good variety of yeast wine would insure a good,safe and speedier fermentation since it's also natural,I am a newbie so I have been experimenting a bit,tnx

Nice, looking forward to the bottling video.

Is ok to use a metal strainer when taking the fruit out before the second fermentation?

So you don't add water or sugar?

I have harvested about 18lbs / 8kg grapes and I want to try making some wine from them. I've never done it before, but I want to try the natural wine approach if possible, using the bacteria already present on the skins and the sugar in the grapes. However, do I need to add water to the primary fermentation?

How i make transparent wine from grapes

try some rhubarb.... it is now my fav

Can we use tea or grape leaves for tannin?

I don't want to bottle my wine by anybody else's information because they use chemicals and involved...so please make a...what to do after the 2nd fermentation....and how long would you let that 2nd fermentation go...Oh yea... would grape juice and pear juice go together for a wine.... Thanks Again....😉

at least how may days it take to make can you tell me thank you :)

How many berries and how much honey?

Wheres the bottling video? I really want to try this but need the final step!!!

How long did you keep the wine in a cool, dark place before it was ready?

Should I wash the berries? Or just do it like they come

Can I use frozen & unwashed berries to make wine?

Hi I have made omega plum wine/mead, i have added juice of one lemon and manuka nz honey. Its on its 3rd day and is now fermenting by wild yeast. Do you think i should put it in my other vessle with air lock now? Im just going by my gut feeling...

What is the recipe?

I just unscrew my lids until they just phphph the gas out slowly, and then I just leave it

I thought alcohol fermentation was an anaerobic process. Stirring in oxygen would only increase the growth of bad aerobic bacteria, but stirring the top layer to the bottom prevents growth by moving the aerobic top layer to an anaerobic area.

I'm wondering where you got your high tunnel.

Should I add water in the beginning?

Hey man gotta a quick question love the vid btw but I'm making some homemade wine from mullberrys and they are on day 4 of the fermantaion process or whatever but there is still no signs of fermentation at all I'm only using the yeast from the berries can I get some help

Good video. Thanks. …. One advise…. Try to pinch a small hole in the balloon. You won’t have to worry about “explosions” . The first time I made it I forgot to pinch the hole and the damn thing blew up at 2 AM. It scared the life out of me and my wife.

I have tired everything I get get sugar water. I have tired fruit -sugar-ferment and yeast nothing. I am at the point i THINK IT IS IMPOSSIBLE to make wine at home. How much half ass sugar water can you make before you give up.???????

Ok
