Wine grapes are more flavorful than most fruits. For fermented wine, even 5% by volume is enough for a subtle flavor. For an assertive flavor you could double or triple that (depending on the beer and wine). <br /><br />Best of luck!The Mad Fermentationist (Mike)https://www.blogger.com/profile/07379932734747507258noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8066877917844499643.post-56120204004764190362016-04-05T21:21:34.545-04:002016-04-05T21:21:34.545-04:00Hi, Un-related question.

It's been in for 14-15 months now, so I got some advice and was told to fruit it, which should add some acidity to it, and make it more sour from the fruit sugar i assume.<br />so, as I live in NZ I have access to a wineries grape juice Its kosher and 100% Juice.<br />Its from a local winery, they bottle it up as normal grape juice unfermented.<br />I was planning on adding some to half the 5gal batch.<br />Would this work nicely, and complement the flavours? I feel as though it would. (Chardonney juice is whatthey're calling it.)<br />And any idea how much? bearing in mind it is juice and not concentrate.<br />The other half will get Sour Cherry concentrate.CRUSADER1612https://www.blogger.com/profile/02448894291176820778noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8066877917844499643.post-25876774864052772632016-04-05T03:24:15.375-04:002016-04-05T03:24:15.375-04:00Looking forward to meet you in Drammen!Looking forward to meet you in Drammen!Ole Kristianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14419850995214766165noreply@blogger.com
