OK - Ive done a little reading of various recipes and techniques for Rhubarb wine. So decided to make up this 1 gallon recipe.
1.25Kg Rhubarb (washed, sliced, frozen fro a week, Pressed to death to extract the juice)
2 cubic inches of grated root ginger.
1.25Kg Sugar dissolved into 2L white grape juice.
1tsp each of Citric acid, Yeast Nutrient, wine tannin, and Pectolase
topped up to 1Gallon
Added a trial jar of fermenting Mango and another trial jar of fermenting Blueberry (from some batches already underway). The yeast in them is Lalvin EC-1118.
Measured the SG and (damn - it it's 1.120) If it doesn't start I'll dilute it to 1.090 AND TRY AGAIN.
I'll let you know how I get on
