“Blank” wine

Filed under: Food and Drink — Tags: — Landis V @ 10:05 am

Ran across the idea for a “blank” wine here (#14) and thought it was a great thing to hold on to for topping off and the like.

  • Juice of 1 lemon
  • Teabag steeped in a cup of water until cold
  • Handful of raisins
  • 2 lbs sugar
  • 1 gallon water

The author notes that it has very little flavor of its own, but has enough acid, tannin, and body to blend well with just about anything.

Up way too late reading and trying to get ready for a brew day tomorrow in a short time window.  I thought I had my partial mash recipe set, but I did not.  Nice article here, a good compliment to Palmer’s How To Brew.
