Making Wine From Jelly
- 4 lbs (36 fl oz) any flavor jelly
- sugar to bring s.g. to 1.090
- 5 tsp powdered pectic enzyme
- 2-3 tsp citric acid *
- 1/2 tsp powdered grape tannin
- water to one gallon
- 1-1/4 tsp yeast nutrient
- 1 pkt general purpose wine yeast
* This really depends on the jelly. Add 2 teaspoons for high acid fruit, 3 teaspoons for low acid fruit. Other
considerations: add more tannin for tannin-neutral jellies, like peach or apple mint. You can match the wine yeast
to the fruit, just as you would for the fresh fruit itself, or simply use a general purpose yeast you like.
