YooperDog Looks amazing, you make your own crab apple wine? How is that? What’s the process like?

Jonathon chop us several pounds of crabapples, steep in hot water and sugar for several days, add your yeast and let nature and chemistry do their thing. Make some adjustments to the flavor profile, rack off sediment a couple of times, clarify/filter, make final flavor & sweetness adjustments, let it rest a month, check flavor, bottle and wait 3-6 months, better after a year. Not anything difficult, sort of puttsy at times. Depending how much wine I got going I just might have to take a nap after all the tasting. LOL

Not sure where to post this. Here or Drink of choice.
Not grilled in a while. Holidays screw everything up.Anyway. A newer bourbon to wash it down. Very good. Yeah, the bourbon. Steak is great as always but shrooms was nice boost.
Cheers to “21”… Better is on the way!

PapaSop One of the things we are going to do when we have the meatgistics meat up (hopefully 2021) is a whiskey/bourbon taste test!

Ain’t that the truth. You can’t rack or bottle without a bit of a taste test of each variety!
I’ve made probably 20+ variations of different fruit including apple, but never tried crabapple - what’s the taste like?
Jonathon the process for pretty much any fruit wine is like YooperDog described: around 3-4 lbs of fruit per gallon, add sugar to get to the desired alcohol content, then pitch some yeast and let Mother Nature do her magic. Sometimes I’ll back-sweeten (for a controlled sweetness) or oak age with oak chips.
Currently “brewing”: strawberry rhubarb, apple, and peach.

gChart depends a bit on the yeast, type/amount of sugar. I would say something like a flat cider. Yes, I always tinker around with recipe a bit, yeasts, additives and yeast food sources. I been making wine since…along time and I am still learning
Crabapple, blackberry wines and blackberry mead waiting to be bottles after the holidays.

Venison kielbasa (using Walton’s ingredients of course), homemade pierogis, and pickled beets. Yum.
Got the wife a simple “dumpling press” as one of her Christmas gifts. Beats the heck out of pressing pierogis with a fork! -
