Racking off is a lot easier with a syphon tube
Ok, ok, sugar beet wine with nettles, lemon and ginger.
Very nice.
Great video! I like your wine bottles, where did you get them from?
Got TONS of nettles ~ great idea!
Couldn't you strain out the sediment with a coffee filter or cloth strainer?
I agree completely! You cannot call something ‘wine’ if it is not brewed using the base ingredient only; just look at grape wine (normal wine), rice wine (sake) and barley wine (Belgian beer). None of which use sugar as an additive medium for producing alcohol. I don’t know what one would call this, but it is certainly not wine!
Nice video, must have hands of steel
I made this last spring and enjoying it now and definitely doing a bigger batch this year
mustapha supas You can use a balloon with a pinhole. Anything that lets gas out and keeps the bugs from coming in.
