Learn the Tricks of Making Wine at Home on Your Vineyard Auckland Tour

Winemaking is a time-consuming process but can be made at home. The initial stage requires the use of inexpensive equipment, lots of your patience, and absolute cleanliness. Then, prepare a checklist of the ingredients, equipment, and other essentials you need to make wine. While on a Vineyard Auckland tour, you can have enlightening conversations with vineyard owners about the tricks of winemaking at home. As of now, read through to know a few useful and easy techniques.

Winemaking at Home:

Equipment Requirement - Be ready with large plastic containers, glass jugs, funnels to cover the mouth of glass bottles, airlocks, rubber cork straining bags that have nylon mesh, plastic tubing, wine bottles, hand corker, and a Hydrometer that will be used for measuring the sugar level. Talking to wine business owners on your Best Wineries New Zealand tour will give you innovative ideas of the key equipment necessary to make winemaking a fun affair. 

What are the Ingredients Required? 

As simple as that, since you are making wine you need lots of grapes that are fit to make wine. Along with it, you need filtered water, granulated sugar, and wine yeast.

The Process of Winemaking:

You start by separating the good grapes from the rotten ones. Once done, crush the good grapes and add wine yeast to them. Then use a Hydrometer to get the reading which can be below or above 1.010. If below, add sugar to it. Store the content in a fermentation bucket for a week or 10 days to ensure froth gathers on the top. Then, strain the liquid from the froth and sediment. Then, fill a container with it up to the brim and fit it with airlocks to prevent air from reaching it. Siphon the liquid from the sediment at monthly intervals until the wine appears clear. Pour the clear content in a bottle and put a cork to it. Store it upright for three days and then slant the bottle to its side at 55 degrees F. 

Once everything is done properly, your wine is ready.
