I've been given something of a deadline to meet... my wife has kindly ordered half a pig for the freezer, but currently the freezer is pretty full of fruit.
I've taken quite a lot of it out to defrost in the kitchen, and I currently have:
Sloes - 21lb 14oz
Plums - 10lb 6oz
Blackberries - 10lb 3 oz
Elderberries - 1lb 1oz
Defrosting in the kitchen.
I also have 15 litres of lidl red grape juice and 4 or 6 small tins of red grape concentrate available.
Furthermore, I know there are at least:
10lb of bullaces
more sloes
and bags of elderberries still on the stalk
in the freezer.
I have 2 '6 gallon' and 1 '7 gallon' fermentation buckets available.
I also have about 5 of the '2 gallon' fermenters to hand.
what should i do?
I could get some blackcurrant juice and try a strong english port... is this possible?
I think I may have too many sloes... thoughts?
I'm open to all suggestions.
