Wine making

We made two wines with two different recipes.

The first recipe is from the hackeria website - Project 16: DIY Fermentation or the Art of making Wine.

The process :

• Mash 1kg of white grapes, sugar and 6l water

• Heat the mash

• Mash the mass again and let cool down below 40 degrees Celsius

• add 10g yeast mixed in lukewarm water

• Pour the mass and yeast in the fermentor, that's been disinfected before

• Insert in the fermentor and seal the top

• place the end of the tube in a disinfectant to prevent oxygen, bacteria from entering it

• Fermentation process 14-19 days

• Filter wine
