Wowsa.🎉 excellent creative wine. Not objectionable, clear, what more can one ask for. The finer wine aficionados are few and far between at this level. I love the content, your methods show a competence not always present in the you tube world. 👊👍🤙🖖
Have you tried adding the fruit, or at least some, in secondary over primary fermentation. I have heard that you lose a lot of the fruit flavors during primary fermentation. Since you pasteurize, I would figure adding fruit afterwards would serve to boost the flavor while doing some of your back sweetening for you. Great video with helpful tips for a new home-brewer as I am. Thanks and have a blessed day.
Love the videos! Have you thought about freezing the fruit beforehand? I've heard that it breaks down the cell walls and allows for greater incorporation. Thoughts?
After using it for some time, how do you like the red cap airlock compared to the standard S shape airlock? I have the same fermenter but have always been weary about using the red cap.
I had the same thoughts early on, but for the past few years I just use the red airlock with no problems. It's only used for the first week before transfering to a carboy.

This was fun regardless of the result. Thanks for diving on this one!
Doing cider making now but will try this next
Looks good

Adding fruit in secondary is not a step that I will employ on this channel. I'll leave that to more advanced channels. MIne is just a stepping stone.
You are so precise
. Another great video.
Watching your videos makes me wonder a random question, but how much of your wine do you drink? Or do you give it all away?

I do it when using berries.
@@DIYFermentation Gotcha, thanks!
You made this on my birthday😅
Thanks!
Thank you for the donation.
Double and triple the fruit if you make it again
I use my blender to smoothie my fruit. Is there a reason to chop instead?
I have to assume for the videos that not everyone will have a blender.
