The Cheapest Way to Make Wine Step 1.

[321Xstacy]

I don't know way everyone says that bakers yeast will only make 8% alcohol, when in fact it can produce upwards of 14%, just do some reach, and you will find that wine yeast and bakers yeast are the same fungus. Some wine yeast has been conditioned to handle higher alcohol content, somewhere around 20%. Bakers yeast will do just fine, and you don't have to go to a specialty shop.

[cherlones]

Can't understand you!! What are you saying the white pills are?

[EnergyDog23]

G'day... good call, Fosters. australian for beer

[marcjtdc]

you need a FOOD GRADE BUCKET!!!!!!!!!! HDPE 2, PET, PETE.

[coronapeacock]

f you guys dont add Camden tablets you will get sick 110% u need it to kill the yeast off before u drink it !!!

[wickedtom1]

@coronapeacock yeast will die on its own, there good 2 use but u dont need cam tabs.once all suger is coverted yeast dies it has no more food plus high alchol content will kill it 2. as long as u siphon it out and leave dead yeast cells behind u'll be fine i make wine and apple brew all the time and never used em before besides old brew recipes dont call for bc they didnt exsist. use em if u got em but its not manitory

[pick8lock]

yes an aussie on you tube.

i forgot what our accent sounded like

[Bulmer39]

Just buy a big bottle of grape juice from a local store and toss in a pinch of yeast, put a balloon on top and let it sit for a month in your basement closet. Siphon it once a week with a plastic stupid, which you buy at a hardware store and release the gas daily from the balloon. I've done this many times and got drunk.

[Bulmer39]

@Bulmer39 plastic tube* lol

[m4airsoftmaster]

he isn't Russian he sound Australian

[cyberbully666]

russians are stupid

[samzaveson]

@cyberbully666 YOUR STUPID

[cyberbully666]

AT LEAST IM NOT RUSSIAN

[nesciandra94]

if you are using fresh fruit do you have to take the fruit's sugar content into consideration when you add more sugar

[bowmasterpigo13]

and how long before you can drink it

[bowmasterpigo13]

hey wat type of fruit can u use and i can only buy bakers yeast is that bad thanks for posting 5 stars

[NubsWithGuns]

sugar yes

but a couple kilos of what lol

[NubsWithGuns]

active dry yeast from the bakery department of your local store works fine also

wine yeast only gives you a better chance of it coming out good

[yonder101]

store bought yeast dies at 8% alchohol, wine yeast dies at about 15&. So depending on your desire of abv..

[PizzaHero92]

actually it depends on amunt of sugar.

[yonder101]

actually, it doesn't. If you have enough sugar, the yeast will eat all of it, and it actually sh!ts out ethanol. The yeast ends up dying from suffocating in its own feces. The better the yeast, the better the chance your yeast survives at a higher alcohol volume.

[PizzaHero92]

yea it depends on the amount of sugar. More sugar, more substance for the yeast to make alcohol. Right?

[yonder101]

Yes you are right. More sugar is better then less sugar.

[alanmacleod50]

That's one of the funniest ways of explaining a chemical reaction that I have ever read.

[PuckHogs]

Sorry but i could not make out what the white tablets were called. What is it again?

[MikeAK147]

Sodium Metabisulphate, you can get them from any homebrew store or you can order them online along with your wine yeast, they are very cheap, good luck!

[eetgeok]

u can still make it without them. idk why he says you HAVE to buy it.

[corvo9980]

Campden tablets. Sodium metabisulphite. General rule is one tablet, crushed into fine powder, per gallon of must.

[msafar2312]

i live somewhere in the shitty middle east where there isn't any type of alcohol

and i do not have most of the equipments.

anyways, I've been making my own wine.

can someone give me a recipe from the basics

keep in mind that there isn't wine yeast as well

[yonder101]

if you can find bread yeast. That will work as well. Just use grape juice, sugar, and yeast, ferment for about 2 weeks, then voila.

[BABYJOK3R15]

can i use any kind of yeast or does it matter anyone help

[drunkfux1]

brewers yeast will be a lot better than bread yeast, I use champagne yeast as it has a high alcohol tolerance and is low foaming

[gonzon22]

I love that bucket... where did you get that!

That is my favorite bucket. Bravo.

[MikeAK147]

Hi, a few weeks after putting the brew into separate bottles and I've just had a taste... It's pretty good, A LOT better than I expected to be honest, there's a lot of alcohol in there and it tastes really fruity. Thanks for putting these videos up, I think I'll make another batch tomorrow :)

[MikeAK147]

WOW! I've just had a smell, it's been about 4-5 days now since I put the yeast in, I can smell A LOT of alcohol ,this stuff it lethal! It's going to blow my head off. This will be great for Christmas, the whole family can get drunk for 10 quid (£) hehehe.

[MikeAK147]

This looks good, I might do this today... Gonna watch step 2 now. Thanks :D

[MikeAK147]

G'day mate.

[kairama15]

everytime i make wine, i get a bad yeasty flavor. how do i get rid of this completely, if not how do i reduce it? id prefer not to use chemicals like bentonite or whatever but if that is necessary.

[wykedtube]

you should not get a yeasty flavour.

I suggest you let the wine sit for longer. wine can take months to fully ferment and then clear.

as the yeast uses up all the sugar they die and drop to the bottom. leaving the wine clear.

maybe try to make it with less sugar and give the yeast a change to use all the sugar then die from lack of food.

[kairama15]

i let it sit for a while, like at least 2 weeks after it was pretty clear. im using bakers yeast. it shouldnt make much of a difference because they are both of the Saccheromides genus strand. (wine and bakers yeast). any other ideas to get rid of the flavor? Thanks for your time man, ur video is off the heezy lol

[wykedtube]

first I would try wine makers yeast.

make sure the wine is 100% clear.

I have never had a yeast taste in the wine, but all my wines are made from wine yeast and were all really clear.

try getting some clearing agent, maybe turbo clear and see what happens.

[eetgeok]

did you siphon it out? that will make sure you only get the wine and leave the dead yeast on the bottom.

[MikeAK147]

You're best buying a proper wine syphon from a homebrew shop, they are very cheap and there is a little thing that clip[s on the end of the syphon that sucks the liquid in from the top, hard to explain but you'll know what I mean when you see it.

[marcjtdc]

@wykedtube "maybe try to make it with less sugar and give the yeast a change to use all the sugar then die from lack of food."??????????????????????

Don't just make things up man!! yeast goes dormant but does not die from lack of food. dry yeast is dormant, not dead, there is no food in there right?????????????????????????­???

[CondemnedPatriot]

@kairama15 are you using brewers wine yeast? or bakers yeast? I used bakers yeast and i got that yeasty flavor. Gonna head to my local brewery sometime soon to get the right stuff

[Zack9587]

holly crap this guy is like a white david chappelle, seriously.....sweet

[BigMoneyMaxim]

how is he like a white dave chappele? he looks talks and acts nothing like him?

[bradmacaroon]

that is baloney; he is takin' us thru it step-by-step.

[garotopodreOi]

thanks for the support, "campben tablets" it is the same thing of "Fleischmann" or "Royale" ? i dont know campben tablets, never saw one... it's the same thing of baking powder? ferment?

thank you again and sorry about taking so much of your attention...

[wykedtube]

Campden tablets (potassium or sodium metabisulfite)

basically kill wild yeast, never heard of "Fleischmann" or "Royale" but if they are potassium or sodium metabisulfite should be fine.

[garotopodreOi]

unfortunelly have no videos in youtube in portuguese teaching how to make wine ! hehe...

and... one more question, it's the same process with red wine??

Thanks for the attention, and for the replly.

[wykedtube]

yep,

he process is basically.

squash fruit, and kill wild yeast (campden tablet)

add sugar if necessary (red wine should not need sugar)

add yeast

ferment for about 1 week, tehn rack into secondary.

leave in secondary for about 1 month then bottle or rack again etc....

[garotopodreOi]

could you to write the things that you need to do wine?? i can't understand what you say... i am brazilian hehe, and i can't understand english speaking, i just understand reading. thank you.

[wykedtube]

campben tablets.

sterilizer

sugar

fruit.

that is about it, oh and a stocking.

[wykedtube]

campden

[fishinatorXD]

are you australian? (just wondering).... and thanks heaps for the wine ideas! i've tried making wine before and it goes horribly wrong (it goes all watery) thanks!

[wykedtube]

yep, I'm an aussie. funny I have never had any major drama's making wine.  had some wines that were distinctly "ordinary" but never any that were watery. I would suggest more fruit, (about 1/2 weight to volume. eg 10liters = 5kg fruit) and add a kilo or so of slatana's or raisins will help body. also make it slightly acidic. you could start with a wine kit like I did and they are really quite nice.

[fishinatorXD]

sweet thanks!

[RMCC92]

can you use baking yeast?

[wykedtube]

sorry missed this comment while I was on hols. yes and no. you can but it will not make the al content and the taste will be very ordinary. a taste of sulphur (rotten eggs) is usually what happens

[wykedtube]

yep, and it even tastes good. I had some that tasted REALLY nice.  but the basics are very easy.

[wykedtube]

not really the taste is pretty bad. it does make al, but also make other byproducts that make it taste bad.

[boynamedjack]

simple!i seen all the parts of making cheap wine!its simple pal!i got all the stuff right here at home! man this is simple...
