so i want to get flavor out of my figs i was thinking about blending them in water freezing it. and only collecting the sugar/fruit juice that thaws out first.
verry similar to the legal freeze concentration method but before the fermentation has happened. So in theory i would get cocentrated fruit flavor that i can then use in future batches.
Sound right? or would i just get the same ratio of fruit juice/ water as it melts?
i am basiclly trying to make a product like this and i am trying to figure out how.
-Ingredients
Soluble fig solids and water.

So no one has ever done any sugar extracting from fruit with water? google seems to have just about every fruit under the sun "water extracted" it seems to be a very viable way to make Fpacks.
 
Hi @Grod,

I think you have to do this with gelatin. A few years ago I fooled around with it. Here is the link to the thread.

The technique works but it's a lot of work. Useful for certain specialty wines or for when you have a particular missing element you are trying to add. These extracts have no alcohol, so they may not keep as long as other extracts.
