Why is the wine brewed at home better than a bottle of wine sold at the supermarket counter for several hundred yuan?

Why is the wine brewed at home better than a bottle of wine sold at the supermarket counter for several hundred yuan? 1. The wine brewed by ourselves is generally sweet, belonging to semi-sweet wine, and the taste is really in line with our taste.

I don't know how much you know about real wine, and whether you can really get used to drinking dry wine. To tell the truth, I was not used to the sour taste at first, but I gradually learned it later.

The quality of several hundred yuan wine in the supermarket is not very good.

4. Your wine-making skills are in place. Hehe, some friends are really doing well, and their fermentation and storage are all good. It tastes a little sweet, and I like it, too.

Why is your home-brewed wine bitter? Haha, when fermenting alcohol, the fermentation is more thorough. Almost all the sugar in grape juice is converted into alcohol (dry wine). Although alcohol has a sweet taste, it is much worse than sugar, and the sweetness of alcohol is different from that of sugar! therefore ...

Why does your home-brewed wine have long hair? Can I still drink? Self-brewed wine has long hair because the grapes are not dried after washing, and mixed bacteria in raw water are brought to infect the wine. Another reason is poor sanitary conditions and mixed bacteria infection. Because of the infection with miscellaneous bacteria, the taste of the wine is already very poor, and even if it can be drunk, it will not taste good.

Steps/methods

Be sure to buy grapes that mature naturally in summer when a large number of grapes are on the market, and don't buy grapes planted in greenhouses that are out of season. Buy purple ripe grapes (taste them, very sweet grapes are usually ripe); Look at the pedicle of the fruit. If it is green and tastes sour, it may be "lycopene". It is best not to buy such grapes.

(webmaster experience: I don't concentrate on mass production, and I have skills in buying grapes. Every night, around 10, I go to the store selling grapes to buy loose grape beads, which are generally very cheap, usually about half the normal price. We bought it for drinking, not as a gift. Actually, grape beads are more suitable for us. )

Cut the grapes one by one with scissors close to the pedicel to avoid damaging the peel; Don't pull grapes by hand, it may hurt the peel; Put all the grapes with broken skins aside to eat, and don't use them to make wine.

(webmaster experience: people who write tutorials say so, but it is not necessary. When you buy in bulk, you will know how many grapes have damaged their skins. You can't finish it. What's more, this website recommends buying grape beads, which are relatively broken. ) Cut the grapes near the pedicel, and be careful not to hurt the peel.

Rinse the cut grapes and soak them in light salt water for about 10 minute to remove harmful substances such as pesticides from grape skins (as mentioned above, grapes with damaged skins are not suitable for wine making, for fear that salt water will penetrate into the pulp during soaking and affect the quality of wine). Then rinse it again with clear water and drain it.

(webmaster's experience: this step is not recommended because there is a thin layer of frost on the surface of grape skin, which contains natural yeast. Yeast fermentation is the process of brewing wine. If the content of yeast in grape skin is destroyed, artificial yeast must be added. Otherwise, insufficient fermentation will easily lead to wine deterioration. ) soak the grapes in salt water for about ten minutes. Drain the grapes.

Pour the grapes into a basin and crush them one by one by hand, leaving the skins, grape seeds and pulp in the basin. Then according to the ratio of six kilograms of grapes to one kilogram of white sugar (you can add more sugar if you like sweeter), stir well and put it in a clean bottle after the white sugar is completely melted. Be careful not to fill the bottle too full, leaving a third of the space, because grapes will expand during fermentation and produce a lot of gas. If the bottle is too full, the wine will overflow. In addition, in order to prevent outside air from entering, it is best to wrap the bottle cap tightly with plastic bags.

(webmaster's experience: sugar is put in order to increase the alcohol content of wine, not to increase the sweetness. How much sugar you put depends on the sweetness of the grapes. The amount of sugar in overripe and sweet grapes should be reduced appropriately, otherwise it will increase. Too much sugar is the opposite. It is also easy to cause wine to deteriorate and deteriorate in the production process. The usual ratio is between 15% and 25%. ) This is a crushed grape. I put two and a half catties of sugar in twelve catties of grapes. I like sweet ones. The capacity of this bottle is 20 Jin, which can hold 18 Jin of grape pulp. Only twelve catties of grapes were made this year.

When the temperature is high in summer, 2 1 day wine will be fine; If the temperature is low (below 30 degrees), you can soak for a few more days. It should be noted that the longer the brewing time, the stronger the wine flavor; After the wine is brewed, the longer it is left, the stronger the wine flavor. I don't like hard liquor, so even if the temperature is not high, I will open the bottle and filter the residue in 26 or 27 days at most. Use these two tools to filter grape pomace.

After the wine is brewed, the grape seeds, grape skins and fermented pulp should be filtered out, that is, filter residue. Bought a spoon for filtering residue (see picture); Some people can also filter with gauze; Anyway, if there is anything in the house that can be used for slag removal, just use the indigenous method to get on the horse, make the best use of it and leave the wine. It should be noted that the residue filtering tools must be strictly disinfected, and bacteria should not be brought into the wine.

Finally, as an experienced person's production experience, you can taste the filtered wine first. If you feel that the wine is weak, it means that the degree is not enough, and you can add some sugar. Performing secondary fermentation.

Can I drink more home-brewed wine? homemade wine

Very good, but the wine is not suitable.

How to make homemade wine taste better than bought wine? Because homemade wine is usually fermented with sugar, homemade wine tastes sweeter, and the wine usually exposed in the market is dry red wine, which basically contains no sugar.

Drink your own home-brewed wine directly or directly with other drinks, or you can have something to drink ~

Can I drink my own home-brewed wine during pregnancy? My own wine contains alcohol, so I can't drink it.

What's the difference between home-brewed wine and wine on the market? The wine on the market is a professional industrialized wine, which is guaranteed in terms of hygiene and food safety. The difference between it and homemade wine is as follows:

1, grape raw materials are different.

Self-brewed wine generally uses fresh grapes, industrial wine-making wine grapes or wild grapes. Fresh grapes are generally thin-skinned, thick-skinned, thick-seeded, juicy and highly sweet, while wine grapes are thick-skinned, thick-skinned, juicy and sour.

2, the process is different

Self-made wine generally needs to wash grapes, and industrialized wine-making does not need to wash grapes. Self-brewed wine removes grape skins and grape seeds in advance, wasting the most beneficial substances; However, industrialized wine-making retains grape skins and grape seeds. In addition, in the process of wine fermentation, a lot of sugar is added to the homemade wine, and no sugar is added to the industrialized wine making.

3. Different sales

It is difficult to ensure the sanitary environment of the whole brewing process like a special winery, and the brewed wine will not pass the sanitary inspection. Therefore, homemade wine can only be a self-hobby.
