I know most recipes for these or Concords state to either dilute down with water due to the higher acid.

ROFLMAO, well I need to head over to my brothers on Monday to pick concord graps, :slp I so need more carboys and space!
 
I have 10 gallons of Muscadine Nobles in secondary now. I aquired mine at Blackwater Vinyards in Virginia Beach, VA. The PH was around 3.0 and Sacailait (the muscadine expert on this forum) suggested not adding anything to it. I used 40#s grapes per 5 gallons. 80#'s total. So far it is awsome.

Wanted to do a batch of Carlos but time did not allow.

Went to the Maryland Renaissance festival. It was a good time. Just me , Kat and Tristen and thousands of Oktoberfest revelers.
 
I am also going to start putting away statuary from the gardens

Hey Larry why don't you come down and help me and if we have time left we'll head back to Buffalo and put your stuff away.:spm

Now there's a plan....

I put my 2 fountains to bed last weekend so I didn't have to contend with them today. I never got to my oil or tire changes today but there is still tomorrow. I did roast 9 lbs of coffee beans instead of the 6 I had planned. You have to have priorities. I didn't really have to roast the coffee beans but it's the most fun to do.
 
myself I added some water to my nobels as when crushed they are still muscadines and that flavor is really strong without it, if you don't dilute it like Julie said is like the Elderberries the flavor can be to overwelming.
 
Thie post is were I got alot of help with muscadines if I can figure out how to get to it.

Muscadine/scuppernong recipes
 
Got up early, another night off tonight. Back to the ole grind stone tomorrow night.
Cooking a 12 pound beef brisket in the oven, real low and slow. Probably about five or six hours.
Got to go to our local Methodist Church for home coming. The church goes back to 1927 I think, little country church.
My wife and her step sister plan on singing.
Then some drafting work and hopefully some wine work too later.
 
well got another 5 gallons of bronze muscadines to crush today, gonna have to start doing stuff with some of these grapes. I'll need room in freezer before long for deer meat hopefully
