For the past 2 years, I’ve been making wine at home and have had a great time entertaining myself, my friends and my family with some great wines. So… now, I’m going to embark on another adventure and work toward marketing and selling the wine. When the time is right, I will let the world know what I have up my sleeve. For now… this is what I have going on.
Last summer, I made 1 batch of blueberry wine from the blueberries picked locally here in NH. Well, this year, I have arranged to make 5 total batches of blueberry wine as an experiement. Last week, I started the fermentation of 90 lbs of blueberries to make 30 gallons of blueberry wine.
I won’t give all the details that I normally do… because this is, well, a new chapter in the winemaking process. In this process, I started the fermentation of 5 seperate batches of blueberry juice. The only difference in the 5 batches, is the yeast I used. Each of the 5 batches is using a different yeast. Everything else is exactly the same.
So… we are now 1 week into fermentation and all is well. Perking away and smelling great. More details to follow. Check out the pics. Very cool!
