This video shows the very fundamental basics of making wine from grape juice. It shows the least amount of equipment necessary to get a new batch up and fermenting. In a later video I will show "racking," to take the wine off the lees (dead yeast). In a video after that one I will show bottling, including a bottle sparkling wine (boom!).

Note that I have -NO- -IDEA- if this video correctly shows how wine is made: I just read a few web sites on the subject.

For a copy of the "sugar to add" chart, and a list of the equipment I used, one may see the web page at:
