This seasons raspberry wine

[Larryh86GT]

Starting a new 5 gal or so batch with 22 lbs of frozen raspberries with a hint of strawberry - about 4 lbs also frozen and from my backyard patch. It will be nice to get some room back in our freezer.

4# per gal is low if making 5 gal. Raspberry has alot of water so you need much more # per gal.

There are many different types of raspberries. We grow 2 types. Our wine is a mixture of both kinds and 4-5# is plenty for us. It really depends on the year too.

[I do wild black raspbery and use about 3 # per gal. Works out good.

I do leave the bag and squeeze it every day in the primary until racking and use egg white to get rid of excess tannen at the end.

Like the egg white thing.
