Making wine at home is fun and you can do it too.steemCreated with Sketch.

If you have gallon size pickle jar you can be making wine today. Just search for a recipe that you like. I bought a recipe book at my local liquor joint that has wine making supplies.

First clean the jar and put a hole in the lid to fit your back pressure instrument. Also you will need to get a grommet to seal the hole in the lid.

Next select your fruit. I have plenty of blueberries and blackberries. Also I mixed in some muscadine grapes to give it a more dry taste. My preference.

Next beat all the fruit to a pulp or mash and add water, sugar, and the few minor ingredients according to the recipe. Such as campden pills, yeast nutrient, and pectin. This can be purchased online or at a local liquor joint.

Check back in two weeks for when I strain out the mash and let it start its final process.

I think you leave this method in very short term.You have to elaborate more.

I just hit the basics. The recipes are available on many sites and books. What I was trying to highlight is you don't have to buy expensive equipment to make wine.

My grandfather used to make wine at home...
Thanks for the upvote the other day...
