A detailed video on the process of turning whole watermelons into wine. The entire process takes about a year from start to finish, but the results are amazing!

Like the song goes: "We got a hundred gallons of sweet red wine, made from the sweetest watermelons on the vine. Help yourself to some, but obey the law: If you drink, don't drive, do the Watermelon Crawl."

Wow, that's high ABV!! I actually made s dandelion and orange mead this spring which came out 18% and my starting gravity was 1.127 but it went all the way down to 0.992. Not exactly what I was shooting for but the honey was super strong and I used champagne yeast. In the end, I like it. It's currently only 3 months old and it's already really good, the alcohol bite is all but gone despite the 18% ABV. After another 3 months, it'll be amazing

Freeze the chunks for a few days then thaw, then use an apple cider press. Maybe $30 online. 3 cups of sugar should get it up to 11-14%. Let it ferment as bout 2 weeks at 68 degrees.

I'm a home brewer, and I think Campden Tablets are great to destroy the wild yeast. I don't get the tablets any more. I get the Porassium Metabisulfite powder Campden tablets are made from. I like the powder because I have more control. I have a spoon to measure the amount of a Campden tablet, but I can use a smaller amount of the powder if I need a pint or quart of solution to sanitize the car boy, or tools

I know you have the ratio down… The recipe is of utmost importance… We were trying to make wine and it just came out so sugary, because the east kept activating in the heat ends looks like there was too much used in there so he needed more sugar, that was wrong… And made it so sugary and sweet like syrups… This is not as easy as it seems. But I totally dig that you’re using honey do you sweeten. We’ve learned a lot since we started and thank you for your tips and tutorials 💜
