How do you make grape wine?

Answer 1

Wine could be made at home, but it's not as easy as one thinks. The best way to make your own wine is to purchase a wine kit at a local wine shop, and for best results, let it ferment there for 6 weeks or so (they have ideal conditions for that). It's not impossible to make wine at home. You will need a cool wine celar, place to store bottles horizonatally, a corking device, a bottle washer, wine testing kit, and, of course, Grape Juice. Then you will need to read a manual you get with the grape juice you buy from a winery, and follow it to a 'T'. This is a complicated process that does not guarantee that you will end up with the wine you will be able to drink... I'm not even talking about offering it to others. I think, it's easier to make moonshine than wine, if you want to experiment :-)

Technically, making wine can be very simple and involves few steps:

1. Sprinkle yeast into a juice that contains sugar.

2. Allow the yeast to begin converting the sugar into alcohol and carbon-dioxide.

You have just made wine.

To make good wine that you would want to consume, there are more steps to take, including measuring the sugar content of the juice, adding more if there is not enough to reach the desired finished alcohol level, allowing the yeast to do a "primary fermentation," and then racking the wine to a secondary fermenter after about a week to ten days.

After that, a winemaker will usually add clarifying agents and preservatives over a period of time. Depending on what the winemaker hopes for, there may be other steps as well.

Answer 2

There are alot of ways to make wine. One of the easyist ways is to buy a bottle of 100% all natural grape juice and add about 1 or 1/2 a tsp of active dry bakers yeast to the bottle, and then put a ballon over the top with a rubber band around the base of the ballon. After that poke 2 or 3 holes in the ballon with a safety pin so the carbon dioxide can get out but the air cant get in. After the first couple days you should see the ballon blowing up, on the third day add the same amount of yeast as on the first day. do this every three days until the ballon deflates all the way. Or until the little carbon dioxide bubbles that float up to the top of the juice stop. you can add a few table spoons of regular sugar to the juice before you add the yeast to make the wine stronger.

Answer 3

There are five basic stages or steps to making wine: harvesting, crushing and pressing, fermentation, clarification, and then aging and bottling. Harvesting means growing up grapes and Crushing the whole clusters of fresh ripe grapes is traditionally the next step in the wine making process. Then we mix yeast and grapes that makes fermentation. Also, watch wine making process on YouTube at wannaboo channel.

Answer 4

buy a large quentity and drink most of it :)

Answer 5

Get the Juice (1 Gal) and then leave at room temperature for about 1-2 weeks The juice should foam over just a little. This should make wine of 10% alcohol.

Answer 6

Grapes are pressed and the resulting juice is fermented.

Answer 7

Both are made using complicated methods of production.

Answer 8

You pick the grapes, squash them to obtain their juice and then ferment their juice.
