Grapes have so much sugar in them like woah. Forgot to photograph it but the end levels were about 1.005~ on these

Full Juice wine
1.08 -> 1.005 = 10%

Half Juice wine
1.063 -> 1.005 = 7.7%

Here’s all my stats i can remember.
Mead 1 - Shiny Red:
1.06 -> 1.004 = 7.35%

Mead 2 - Brick Red
1.043 -> 1.004 = 5.2%

That was before the infusion and back sweetening, which had around 250ml of maple syrup into it

So I put an entire melon into each bottle this time. Then lemon and lime juice, because they were on sale. Absolutely no idea what’s happening here, I’m hoping if I leave them another month they’ll drop out

This stuff has clarified so well, swapped it into a clean jug and left it alone for around a month. It’s looking like a nice rich red, but I’ve mostly forgotten what’s in it at this point. Wanna say passionfruit and cranberries infusion at the end, with some maple syrup

Hahahaha yesss, YESSSSS

And the second one, not as fun, 1.04 to 0.994, which makes for about 6%. If it gets to 11% I’d be happy
September 1, 2025 at 8:44 PM
Let’s see, a drop from 1.06 to 1.003 makes for about a 7.5% base, let’s see how far this goes. That’s the bright red one anyway

It’s been a while, they’re down to no sugar, let’s add a bunch of maple syrup and cranberries

I really crave punishment apparently
July 28, 2025 at 10:05 PM
Hell yeah

Well goddamn, apparently this mix of strawberries and passionfruit was better than the dragonfruit and raspberry. At least the colour isn’t as good
July 6, 2025 at 1:27 PM
Made one with a friend who wanted to use strawberries as well, really wasn’t expecting it to work but what the hell do I know
July 6, 2025 at 1:23 PM
Not bad, a little over 10% for first pull, I’ve throw in a little more sugars to use them up for a quick secondary blast
July 6, 2025 at 1:19 PM
At least the last small batch came out well
July 6, 2025 at 1:16 PM
I let this go for waaaay too long, like an extra week because I was lazy. Oops
July 6, 2025 at 1:08 PM
Forgot to show the final result, still been too lazy to calculate the strength 😅

Oh no I’m on the wrong island time
April 22, 2025 at 8:41 PM
Ohhhh I get it now, they say the arm must flow but like I understand it now? I feel it??
April 5, 2025 at 4:34 PM
Hell yeah let’s finally finish this stupid wall!

I always forget how much I like it here when it’s sunny
March 30, 2025 at 6:14 PM
Ohhhh that explains why my car smells like a lady
March 28, 2025 at 2:34 PM
I spilled like a third of a bottle from syphoning too hard and soaked my work trousers yesterday, but the batch is almost fully captured. All I need now is a dumb name and it’s perfect ✋😌👌
