I have had a go at a wine, but I think something is wrong with it?
In it is about 3lbs of carrots and 6 lbs of beetroot boiled until well-cooked, then the water they were cooked in was put in a DJ with a Lt of red grape juice from Lidl and brown sugar.
It started fermenting well, and after a few days it stopped, so I added more sugar, but it did not start again, I left it a week or more then added more yeast, and it went mad. To stop it coming out the air lock I had to remove some 2 and half inches of juice. [This made it about 4 inches from the bottom of the neck of the DJ]
It has now stopped working again, I cannot test the sg because the contents are too thick, [the float stayed at the bottom it does not float. It sticks to the sides of the jar I put the juice it to test it, but it does not taste sweet.
