Saw a great video a few weeks ago for Simple Wine from Fruit Juice, but can't find it now.
Basically, the guy took bottles of 100% fruit juice only added sugar and yeast, slightly put on the cap, let it set, then drank...
He said 30 days or longer, then it was supposedly drinkable, but the longer you let it sit, the better it tasted.
He also warned not to screw the caps on to tight or you'd blow grape juice all over the basement, garage or where ever you kept it.
So I want to give this a try.
I've got 4 of those 1 Gallon Carboy jugs each with a solid type cap, a "bubbler" and a plug with a hole for said bubbler, several things of 100% juice in a few flavors and I have a few packs of Yeast coming from Amazon.
My questions are:
1. How much Sugar should I put in each jug? I was thinking a 1.5 Cups per gallon?
2. How much yeast? I was thinking 1/4 of a teaspoon or one packet?
3. How long, really should I let them age?
I mean 30 days or longer goes, pretty quick, but I'm sure there is a diminishing point of return, where after say 3 months, 6 months, 9 months or whatever it is, it really doesn't get any better and may even get worse...
