will this recipe work? Shocked

it's the most delightfully simple one I've seen and I know someone who wants to offload about 150 bunches of grapes each september Shocked

Ingredients


Enough grapes to make a quart of liquid ..about 10lb
2lb sugar


Method/Procedure

1.Mash grapes in container and leave to ferment for 3 - 5 days.

2.Draw off juice

3.Dissolve sugar in hot water.

4.Mix all together and pour into Demi John add water to fill upto one gallon.

5.leave to bubble away for about 3 - 4 months.

6. Draw off and bottle.

Don't forget no yeast needed as grapes make their own yeast

I borrowed it from the 'self sufficient-ish' website by the way Laughing

Wish I knew someone trying to offload grapes. I am thinking of getting a vine. D and the kids want eaters. I want winers. Confused

No reason why it shouldn't work D&T.
I've read somewhere that with some fruit (apples springs to mind) that you don't need add yeast because of naturally occuring stuff so I guess grapes might be the same.

Ady get one of each Laughing
