Hello all I have a questions about Rhubarb wine I am trying to make.
Here is the recipe.
4 cups rhubarb
1 quart Strawberries
3 pounds sugar
1 package of Wine yeast
10 raisins
enough water to fill 1 gallon jug.
Had the fruit frozen and unthawed to open up cells to get more flavor out.
put the fruit in jug and put sugar in water heated to make it liquid.
Put sugar water in jug and added yeast and filled up with water.
The thing if fermenting like crazy.
The problem is after I was cleaning up I found half of the sugar was left out.
I read 3 pounds but only put in 3 cups.
I weigh out 3 cups and it is 1.5 pounds
Any ideas on how to get the other half into the jug.
I think it will be dry when finished and we don't like dry wines.
Can I back sweeten it?
Any ideas would be great.
Thanks
Tim
