We have a lot of plums this season, so another batch of plum wine is in the works.

Plum Wine IX

Fruit Wine – Kent, WA
5 Gallons
OG:1.–FG:-.–%ABV:–.-TA:-.-%
Sugars
20 lbFresh Plums
– lbSugar
Additives
7Campden Tablets
– tspAcid Blend
– tspYeast nutrient
– TbspPectic enzyme
Yeast
1 PacketPremier Cuvee Wine Yest

Process:

Rinsed plums and removed pits by cutting in half. Added halved plums to my primary bucket. Added about 1.5 gallons of water to cover the plums, then used a stick blender to break them up even more. I added the crushed Campden tablets (used a few extra because they are getting old and might not be as effective anymore) and sealed the bucket with an airlock.

The next day, I added sugar, yeast nutrient, and pectic enzyme. Added enough water to bring the total volume to about 6 gallons.

9-18-26: Put fruit into primary bucket with crushed Campden tablets.
