Thanks, Chuck. That is what I have been doing also but I wanted to get some of the water out. I note in the grape packs that come in kits that the grapes are very sugary and not juicy. It seems they are getting the liquid out somehow. It could be that the "grapes" in the grape packs are left over after pressings.
I remember years ago, when I was involved in making wine from grapes, my Grandfather made a "second" wine by not pressing the skins from the wine and capturing and segregating the "first run" of wine, which was excellent. He then would add sugar and water to the un-pressed skins and referment the wine. This second wine was not the quality of the first run, but it did have alcohol and tasted okay, and he slipped it in when people "over stayed their welcome" drinking his wine. Also, a bit of the second wine was turned into vinegar.
