......and I have done 5 gallons of apple wine a year for a while using whatever apples I can lay my hands on. I used to have an orchard, now I don't but there are lots of apples out there for the picking. I did do cider but its very time consuming - chop apples, shred apples, then press apples and you only get a gallon out of each bin bag, and because it is slow you end up doing it over several sessions so you have to keep cleaning the kit, dull, dull, dull. Wine only requires rough chop i.e halves or quarters, hot water, go! I don't rack as I am not seeking a competition clarity wine. It comes out of the bin, sugar, yeast and into demi johns and sits there for a year. Then gets siphoned straight into wine boxes a gallon at a time. Easy.
Like Mick says it can be a bit of a passion after a while - 120 bottles of elderflower champagne this year, 15 gallons apple, 2 gallons elderberry, 1 each of damson, sloe, and cherry plum....but we are brewing all the drinks for our wedding too!
