I made mine over the period of a week. I used a balloon over the top so you dont have to do the cap trick. Also it's a good idea to filter out the yeast

[@acexkeikai]

Yeah I was thinking about filtering the yeast because it's one of the things I did when I fermented drinks to make mead, if you don't siphon off the liquid you won't have a clear drink and it will taste off too.

[@JustAnotherLondoner]

How do you filter out the yeast?

[@acexkeikai]

@@JustAnotherLondoner you usually use a siphon the liquid using a tube of food grade plastic. You siphon leaving the lees behind and usually youhave to wait for the lees to fall down to the bottom of your container.

[@adamburdt8794]

@@JustAnotherLondoner you let it settle to the bottom and you siphon it out I think it's called grafting? Not sure. Or you let it settle to the bottom and pour out the liquid from the top to another pot and discard the 1/2 inch at the bottom. Do that a few times and youre gold.

[@Vladigraph]

You have to let the wine sit undisturbed until all the yeast falls to the bottom and the liquid becomes clear. Then you siphon off the clear part of the wine. This process takes several days after the fermentation is finished and the gas stopped lifting up the yeast particles.

Emmy, try redoing it and mix Concord Grapes and White Grape juice. As for the sugar Also, get one of those airlocks which goes on top of the bottle, you use a rubber cork and you add water in the airlock. the CO2 releases through the water. I think you will get better results. My Ex makes Mead if you degas the wine without it can affect the taste. You should use a glucose sugar instead of a sucrose sugar or make inverted sugar, you can find how to make it on-line basically it's 2 parts Sugar (cane) to one part Water (2 cups Sugar to 1 cup water) then add in .325 oz of lemon juice. stir sugar to dissolve and heat just below boiling while stirring, hold the temp for 30 minutes. then cool it down to warm. this will make your sucrose sugar into a mixture of Glucose & Fructose.

Bread yeast can be used you would get an alcohol some where between 3 to 7 percent, wine yeast can get up to 20 %, some beer yeasts up to 20 % as well but that would be a very strong dry beer as it would of fermented out most of if not all of the sugar. Using finings to clear the wine helps with the taste a one stage or two stage packet will do more than a galleon, also use a glass carboy plastic can often leave a funny taste. It can also help the yeast if you put it in a cup with warm water and a little melted sugar to give it a bit of a head start make sure what ever juice you use is not too acidic or it will kill the yeast before it does anything.

Once upon a time in America you can be 18 to buy liquor. Didn't matter if it was wine, beer or rotgut. Until some evil witches and do gooders made the drinking age 21. I mean at 18 years old you can vote, buy tobacco ( although states are raising the age), join the military or purchase a firearm but you are not old enough to drink.

[@timrobins98]

So, a couple of tips to improve what you're doing here: 1. Separate out the yeast This can be done by racking the wine into a separate container after the yeast has settled to the bottom or by pouring it through a cheesecloth a couple of times. 2. Store the 'wine' in a glass bottle The alcohol in the wine can actually eat away at the plastic over time and create a bad taste or even toxic chemicals in the wine itself. By storing in a glass container this can be avoided. 3. Add nutrients to the juice before starting The yeast used doesn't only eat the sugars in the juice but also certain vitamins and other minerals found in grapes. Nutrients can be bought online pretty cheaply to help feed the yeast and allow it to live longer. 4. Stop the wine early If your mix is tasting too strong when you finish you can try to taste as you go and stop the fermentation process early using potassium sorbate or by putting the wine into your fridge for a day and then removing the excess yeast. There's more that can be done obviously, such as juicing your own grapes or aging the wine for longer, but these tips should improve the taste of your wine. Of course, if you're just trying to make cheap alcohol, the original recipe works great, but be ready for a bad hangover the next morning.

[@kninep12]

I agree- kill the yeast and get it off the wine. Otherwise, this is just nasty jailhouse hooch that will continue fermenting until you blow out the bottle / cap..

[@TheReTurnersFlips]

@@kninep12 it can only ferment so much. The yeast will die on its own eventually

[@kninep12]

D.M.Turner true, but only IF the alcohol produced is high enough to kill the type of yeast used. If not, it will stay in suspension looking for anything to digest. (In the end, however, I think we can agree Winemaking requires a very high level of sanitation and patience that this video - and most viewers- don’t appreciate, and this will turn out bad.)

[@timrobins98]

The yeast will eventually die on its own, however it wont go away, so your wine will end up tasting like communion.

It tasted amazing as a slush and chilled.

I make wine regularly. If you buy the juice, buy the yeast, buy the sugar it adds up to more than a bottle of wine ! If you are going to make some use something free. Blackberries from a hedgerow. Dandelions ( my favourite). Nettles or dozens of other things you can find in the countryside

[@JS-wp4gs]

Speaking as someone who was literally born and raised on a vineyard and spent more time than I care to think about on all parts of the wine making process, you have to be very, very careful doing stuff like this. If the temperature is even a little off with that pot, or the sugar ratio is off you could end up putting someone into the hospital with it. Sick and/or blind. There is also the fact that many companies that produce grape juice add chemicals that aren't mentioned on the label to their juice specifically to prevent people from using it to do this, that can make you sick as hell if you do and drink it not realizing the additives are in there

[@AlexKS1992]

That's something that a lot of people should keep in mind.

[@MAPS-lf5wu]

Great video..just one thing to add..Instead of taping the cap and since you're ordering the yeast from a specialty store anyway, it's best to buy yourself a plastic air lock which allows Co2 to escape safely through water without contaminating your wine. The method in video unfortunately exposes you to wild yeast which can ruin your wine and make leave you preying to the porcelain gods if you know what I. mean. The homebrew air locks can also be purchased on Ebay super cheap or at any homebrew supply store.

[@brianh4754]

[@GamerKiwi]

You can substitute the wine yeast with bread yeast. They're the same species but bread for slightly different qualities. Bread yeast has lower alcohol tolerance, reducing the total alcohol, but it will taste fine and if you add plenty of sugar it can still get to 12% in my experience which is enough for a somewhat dry wine. I like to do this process to make apple cider/wine

I would be willing to taste mead though lol

[@TheNZJester]

@@PinkiiDoesStuff Some types of meed can taste a lot like beer or other drinks. It just uses honey instead of other sugars to ferment the alcohol. Apparently there is a Mead you can make with real maple syrup instead of honey. A lot of it is more like a cider than wine.

[@jaygenske385]

You might have better luck not adding sugar and using 1/4 package of the yeast. The grapes have enough natural sugar to ferment. It will be a little drier and less yeasty tasting. If you do choose to add sugar maybe no more than 1/4 cup. Give it a try I think it will be better. I ferment any wine i make at least a month. It gives it time to settle so you don't have to use finings to clear it off. You will get a way better taste.

when you mentioned a gas balloon it reminded me of a prohibition video off of the Ushanka show. In the Ukraine during Gorbachev's "war against alcoholism" people immediately switched to making moonshine in their homes and especially in the farm villages. A fun joke of the time was the use of medical latex gloves to cap and act as the gas bag during the fermentation process. You knew the 'shine was finished when the hand was nearly full. They started calling these "Gorbachev's hands" or "Gorbachev waving high" I think. As well as the occasional taping all the fingers down except the middle one. lol. It's been a while but thanks for making instant pot wine Emmy!

[@DemonMage]

Why did you put it in an instapot? All you need to do is take out the juice, put in the sugar (like you did in the beginning) then just add a teaspoon of yeast, shake the heck out of it until the sugar is fully dissolved. Unscrew the cap enough that when you squeeze the bottle the cap goes up, but when you left go the cap drops back down. Place in a dark place for 2-4 weeks, chill in fridge and drink now or rack it to a dark bottle for long term aging.

[@AwesometownUSA]

I refuse to use bleach to sanitize. I've had cases where the tiniest bit of chlorine was still in the container, even after rinsing out, and it skunked my entire gallon of mead. It gave it a sort of.. plastic-like off flavor to it. I pretty much use no-rinse acid sanitizers because it won't harm the flavor or yeast even if you have a bit of it left inside the fermentation vessel.

[@NaruSanavai]

A splash of distilled vinegar, a drop of Dawn, and hot water works just fine, as well. Though, I guess vinegar could be considered one of those "no-rinse acid sanitizers".

When I was a young man in the service of my country we made wine in our barracks lockers, 5 gallons at a time. We used the same base as Emmy, WALSH'S 100%. We did not use wine spacific yeast, but the first yeast we found at a grocery store. Plenty of sugar and only room temperature heat. We capped our wine vat, a bottle, with a latex condom. A month later or so when the condom had deflated we decanted our prize by straining through a clean, once washed, new tee shirt. Anyone want a purple and white tee shirt? The one gallon bottles we used were filled with 3 quarts of freshly made product and one quart of unfermented grape juice. Then we refrigerated until cold. After a quick 12 ounce glass we could not form a sentence, or walk a straight line. I thought it was good stuff; it tasted nice.

Manischeviz connoisseurs, take note! seriously, Emmy, In college I made this, sans instant pot. The instant pot speeds up the fermentation appreciably, though. Otherwise, it takes a month. Also, add a little sugar (not a lot--half a tsp) to your original bottle when you return the mix to it, and let it chill in your fridge for about five days, to taper off fermentation...and it will be much improved. You rock! Great content., as always.

After you open up those vacuum sealed packs the dry yeast will start to die fairly quickly so you can't really save them, so might as well dump it all in. It would just mean a shorter lag period before active fermentation kicks in. Source: someone who brews 5L batches with Lalvin D47 and EC-1118 all the time.
