Made in a 5L demijohn.

Ingredients:

  • 3x Seedless Raspberry Jam 420g
  • Lalvin EC-1118 yeast
  • Pectinase enzyme
  • Fermaid-O 10g

I believe now that this is more nutrients than necessary.

I have made other beverages before but never a fruit wine!

    Here people add jams and pickled fruit in destilates (“moonshines”). I never heard of wines, ciders from it.

      I checked before I did it online and found people had done it before and got a drinkable product from it.

      Have a look at this: https://homebrewacademy.com/jam-wine-recipe/

      Edit: If you think about it Jam is made from fruit, sugar, and sometimes added pectin. You add extra sugar when making fruit wines most of the time anyway, so this works out quite well. Jam is also cheap and readily available making it a very accessible brewing ingredient

        It is regional thing, most people distil here (pay fee and have it legally distilled). So when you have old jams and pickled fruit from last year you add it in fermenter.
