Yesterday I picked some wild grapes near Corsicana. I filled up a 120 quart cooler. Tonight and tomorrow I will make 30-40 pints of preserves, but would like to make wine with the rest. I have a few 5 gallon glass jugs that have been in the family for many years, but no other equipment.
I have searched the internet for 'recipes' and procedures, but could use some practical advice as I have found a very wide range of approaches.
1.) Do I have enough grapes to make a 5 gallon jug of wine?
2.) What equipment do I need?
3.) I could use a step-by-step guide, including what additives I will need?
As always, I appreciate the input and advice.
