Winemaking
Grappa, that is grape brandy, is a spirit that is a 'by-product' of winemaking, as grappa is based on grape pomace. Making this beverage from fruit is very simple. If you want to prepare homemade grappa, just take a look at our recipe.
Recipe for Homemade Grappa
Preparation:
Dissolve 2.5 kg of sugar in 12.5 L of hot water. Add 12.5 L of grape pomace (leftovers from pressing grapes for juice). Before starting fermentation, pour the contents of the sachet into approx. 300 ml of water at a temperature not exceeding 30°C, mix thoroughly and, after 30 minutes, pour into the wash. On the third day, add another 1.25 kg of dissolved sugar. Repeat the sugar addition on the 5th day of fermentation (1.25 kg). Ferment at 20 - 29°C for 7-10 days from the cessation of gas (CO2) release. Rack the liquid off the sediment, then subject it to further processing.
Enjoy! ...because homemade is better!
