I've got a bottle of grape wine with wine maker's yeast coming due here in a few days, but this peculiar wine with kool-aid looks so yummy! I think I know what I'll be making next! BTW: I live about 2 hours away from Hastings, NE where Kool-Aid was invented.
Greetings from Russia! I recently made sugar wine in a liter bottle with baker's yeast. The fermentation process took about 3-4 days and stopped. I got 10-12 percent alcohol. However, it is quite difficult to drink it in its pure form, after 3 glasses it becomes tasteless) As a child, I made wine from garden berries without adding yeast, I plan to repeat this with store-bought juice
Thank you. Psw paw. I am experimentijg with various flavors and tryimg ginger juice. It's still cold here, so I put mine in an ice chest with a heating pad. The alcohol content seems lower than store wine, so we drink a little more to chill with.
Pawpaw, please try making some mead. You make it just like you do your wine except instead of sugar you use honey. You can add water and yeast to it for a traditional mead or you can add juice to it to make a melomel.
Pawpaw ive made your delicious wine plenty of times. But only with apple juice and grape juice. Any advice on half raspberry half lemonade juice half red grapes??
My advice...... life is too short to not experiment and learn something new daily. If you are curious about making a flavor, try it. What do you have to lose ? Good luck and enjoy !!
Ok i have to say I love your recipe for wine and have been making it for a long while now. From one paw paw to another I like to add the wine I pour out back into it after its done brewing(30days). Or cut it with another juice i bought etc.. to fill it back up. Flavor is enhanced greatly and believe me it doesn't drop the alcohol content much!! Works great! 😂Tastes better by far
Thanks for sharing this PawPaw. Ran across this video recently & made me thirsty. Going to mix up 2 jugs worth & see how it goes. Weather is still cool at night (50's) & daytime is 70's - 80's low to no humidity so could take 5 to 6 weeks in the shed but I'm looking forward to trying it out. Thanks again!
You aren't going to be happy. When the temp of your mix drops, fermentation stops. It takes a long time for it to warm up passively after being cold at night. Why aren't you doing it inside the house instead of the shed ?
@@DoingItCheap You are right. After seeing another one of your other videos you said "Constant Temperature" and I realized it need to come inside the house. My initial thought was the daytime it would get very warm but the lower temps at night won't do it any good. Thanks
@@DoingItCheap I invested in a one gallon glass fermenter with an airlock and bought some wine yeast all for under $20. One of your other videos shows the wine yeast yields a little higher proof. Hope to have some good stout cherry juice based wine a month from now. Have a nice day!
