I had a lot of odds and ends kicking around so after 2 days of research I put together this recipe.
Mixed Fruit Wine
11 lbs frozen Raspberries with sugar
3 lbs frozen Apples
1 1/2 lbs frozen Strawberries
2 lbs frozen Saskatoon berries
8 cups Cranberry/Pomegranate Juice
2 1/2 gallons water
7 lbs sugar (but there was sugar in the Raspberries too)
1/4 tsp K-meta
2 tsp yeast nutrient
3 tsp Acid Blend
1/8 tsp Tannin
1 tsp Pectin enzyme
1 pkg EC-1118 yeast
I took all the frozen fruit and put them in the primary, added the Cranberry/pomegranate juice and water and left it overnight to unthaw. This morning I strained off all the fruit into a bag and measured how much liquid I had and what the SG and Acid level was. I had just over 4 gallons of liquid, the SG was at 1.035 and acid level at 3.5(if I did the acid test right). I slowly dissolved sugar in a small amount of must keeping track of amount of sugar I used. I did this several times checking the SG after every addition. So the end result was an SG of 1.098. I added everything else except the Pectin enzyme and Yeast and put the fruit bag back in. I am gonna leave it for at least 12 hours (probably closer to 24 hours with work tomorrow) before adding the pectin enzyme then an additional 12 hours to add the yeast.
Did I miss anything?
