Method - Step-by-Step Guide on How to make Quick Grape Wine:
Preparation:
- Clean the Grapes: Wash the grapes thoroughly under running water. Then soak them in warm water with a pinch of salt for extra cleanliness. Dry them completely.
- Remove the Stems: Pluck the grapes off the stems and set them aside.
Pro Tip: Ensure the grapes are completely dry to avoid spoilage during fermentation.
Sugar Mixture:
- Dissolve Sugar: Heat the water and sugar together until the sugar dissolves. Do not boil. Let the mixture cool completely.
Assembling the Wine Mix:
- Mash the Grapes: Slightly crush the grapes and place them in a clean and dry porcelain or glass jar.
- Add Ingredients: Add the wheat, yeast, and cinnamon to the jar. Pour in the cooled sugar-water mixture.
- Egg White: Beat the egg white lightly and add it to the mix. This helps clarify the wine.
- Mix Thoroughly: Stir the mixture well to combine all ingredients evenly.
Pro Tip: A long wooden ladle works best for stirring the mix without introducing contamination.
Fermentation:
- Seal and Store: Cover the jar tightly and store it in a dark, dry place without moisture.
- No Daily Mixing: Unlike traditional methods, this quick recipe does not require daily stirring. Leave the jar undisturbed for 21 days.
Straining and Final Steps
- First Straining: After 21 days, open the jar and mix the contents with a long wooden ladle. Strain the mixture through a colander, pressing the grapes to extract all the juice.
- Caramelised Sugar (Optional): For enhanced colour, caramelise 2 tablespoons of sugar with 1 teaspoon of water until golden brown. Add 2 tablespoons of warm water to the caramel, boil briefly, and mix it into the strained wine.
- Second Straining: Strain the wine again through a fine muslin cloth for a smoother texture.
- Final Storage: Pour the strained wine into clean and dry bottles or jars. Let it sit for another 7 days to mature (if time permits).
Pro Tip: Patience pays off—the wine tastes better with a little more ageing!
Tips and Notes:
- Egg White: Clarifies the wine and reduces tannins, resulting in a smoother, clearer brew.
- Cleanliness: Ensure all jars and tools are clean and dry to avoid contamination.
- Patience is Key: While this wine is ready in 30 days, it tastes better with a little more ageing.
- Adjust Sweetness: Modify the sugar quantity based on the natural sweetness of your grapes.
Pro Tip: For a unique twist, add a small piece of star anise or cloves to the fermentation mix.
