My E-Z Caps Brewing

Postby yahoo » Sat Jan 03, 2009 4:35 am

I just wanted to lend my idea on how I brew and rack that works really well.
While a bit more
expensive it works really well.
For my container I went to wally world and bought a 2 gallon clear water
container with a
pour spout on the front.
I put 4 cans of welch's concord grape in it along with 14 containers of
water. What I do is
reserve about 7 cans of water out and mix in 4 cups of sugar in that then add
it. It gets
tough to mix in the container. Add 1 tsp yeast and place on a heating pad on low
setting. It
starts to bubble in less and 4 hours.
Where the lid goes on top I put a piece of plastic wrap with a little slit
in it about 3/4 of
an inch. A pin hole for that amount makes it slightly carbonated.
The great thing is that the container already has a spout that is higher
than the sludge so
racking is very easy. The sediment settles in the two indentations in the
bottle. It fits decent
in my fridge. So when it's clear enough for me I drain it off and that's it.

Anyway, I have been making wine like this for many years and never had a
problem yet.
Hope this helps someone out.
