Make your own wine in 28 days

If you love wine, you might want to think about making it at home, which can be a fun project that can also be a learning experience and a fulfilling new hobby. Although the fermentation process is fairly simple, it takes the right tools and know-how to succeed and produce something that is not only drinkable but is enjoyable to savour. One way of producing wine is with a home wine-making system. These systems can produce twelve bottles of high-quality wine in only 28 days, with instructions to guide you every step of the way. There are several advantages to using this rather than going it alone
A home wine-making system gives you the option of choosing from several different recipes and injecting your own flavours into the finished product, which allows you to flex your creativity. A typical kit will include the bottles, toppers of corks, an instructional DVD to guide you every step of the way, a funnel, spoon, closures for the bottles, an adhesive thermometer, and the actual ingredients. You can combine these ingredients in different ways to produce different types of wine, with a step-by-step guide to help you
There are three main steps that you will follow with a wine-making system. The first step involves assembling all of your kit, sanitising the bottles and equipment, mixing your ingredients, and then fermenting. After this first step, you may have to wait for some time. After two weeks, you can then move on to the second step, of stabilising your wine and clearing it of any inconsistencies. Finally, after 28 days, you’re ready for bottling. You can typically choose from many different types of wine varietals, including such popular drinking wines as Chardonnay and Shiraz
What’s beneficial about these home wine-making system options is that you don’t have to live out in a vineyard to experience what it takes to make wine. Even in a small flat, you’ll have the space to craft twelve of your own homemade bottles, which can then be stored for your own use or given to friends and family as gifts. This could be the basis for a wine-tasting party if you want to sample the different flavours and bouquets each wine brings to the tablet. There may be no better way to learn more about the wine-making process than by doing it on your own
Popular wine-making systems include Beaverdale, Get ‘er Brewed and Solomon Grundy
There is also a whole host of websites to help you on your way, including winemaking.co.uk, creativewinemaking.co.uk and WineMakerMag.com, as well as numerous blogs
Happy winemaking!
