it works well, just make sure it's pretty air tight.

About the marijuana recipe...

It says not to add water when its fermenting, but then it says, to add water during the 2 week fermenting.

can the OP elaborate? I would love to make some MJ wine for my first go.

Yes. You don't want to add any water during "vigorous fermentation". Your mixture will likely foam up quite a bit while this is going on, and if you add any water it will just foam out all over the place! After vigorous fermentation subsides, you'll want to top your carboy up to an inch or so below the top. This is to remove most of the air from the container. Air is bad, in winemaking! Nothing will spoil your wine quicker than oxygen. So it's always a good idea to top off your container!

I personally wouldn't go with exactly what is written...

For starters, I would mix the plant material with water, use sulfites on it, then wait for 12 hours. This is to kill off any other bacteria/fungal spores that are almost certainly in the plants. After the 12 hours are up, you can add your yeast.

I would also add about 1/2 pound of minced sultana raisins, to add body to the wine (add before you sulfite!!).

Finally, I think I would add a little acid blend to the mix, to give it more of that "sharp" taste. I don't really know how much, and wouldn't without actually trying it, but somewhere between a teaspoon and a tablespoon. If you are going to try it and want to get very technical...you could buy an acid test kit and check how much acid is in the mix after those first 12 hours. You want it at about 0.50%-0.60 TA, so add acid blend to suit. An acid test kit costs about $10, btw, and any good brew shop should have them!

(day 39)

Racked it today, and gave it the first tasting!! It's got a unique taste to it! That's about the best I can give it..."unique" :smirk:

Then again, it isn't supposed to be ready until next October! :blush:

Definitely has good taste hiding in there! There is a strong Champagne sense to it...probably from the yeast I used. I'm used to this yeast adding this kind of flavour to wine in it's early stages, though, so I expect it will age out nicely!

Hey trendal i have a question...
When you bottle beer you have to add little bit of sugar so it would be carbonated, how can i know how much to add so it wont explode? (happens to people many times)
Last time i added to little and it was only slightly carbonated...

Racked it again today. I think this will be the last racking, so I might bottle it in a couple weeks!

Gave it a taste and it has definitely improved!!! It has a faint pumpkin taste to it. The champagne flavour has almost entirely aged out already.

lol, yeah but you don't have to check wine every day! :wink:

It's enough if I check it once every month! Maybe top up an air lock. Rack it every 2-3 months.
