Looking to make a tomato wine, and every recipe I've seen calls for granulated sugar. Does that sound right or is there a better option than just regular sugar. If anyone has every made any with good results a recipe or ideas would be great.
thanks -Shane |

Well I started out by juicing in our juicer 35+ pounds of tomatos and adding that to the primary bucket, along with the tanins and acid blend yeast nutrients and enegizer. let it set for 2 weeks and racked it over to the secondary, whew god awful looking stuff like a cross between tomato soup in the can and cottage cheese looking stuff in the bottom of the bucket. It's been in the secondary for a couple of weeks now and it's seperating nicely and actually looking like something I would drink, going to give in another 2-4 weeks then bottle.
