I apologize for just now getting to this...Graceful,<br />I apologize for just now getting to this. I just got married and this summer has been a blur. I hope to get back to posting very soon, as soon as I get my new wife's things moved in and organized better.<br />I don't age the juice before using it, I use some of it right away. So I dont think it matters if you age it after canning or not.<br />Sorry again<br />MartyJunkerJunkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03022978446792143889noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5585490156233291273.post-72283822336364836872010-08-31T13:28:49.459-04:002010-08-31T13:28:49.459-04:00Thanks so much. Sorry for all the questions. I pic...Thanks so much. Sorry for all the questions. I picked a bushel of 2 kinds of grapes yesterday and will be doing lots of experimenting. Concords and white grapes. I was only able to get seedless concords-so we'll see how that works. I also will be trying white grape juice doing it your method. We love white grape juice and thought I'd give it a try-at least once and see what happens. I do have a question-how long do you let the juice set to ripen or age? Or does it matter? Thanks so much.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05964892666821663206noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5585490156233291273.post-35147302094424361842010-08-31T01:51:52.587-04:002010-08-31T01:51:52.587-04:00Diluting it is not necessary, it tastes just about...Diluting it is not necessary, it tastes just about right, right out of the jar. <br />I don't think crushing the grapes slightly would have any advantage, but I am open to someone experimenting and letting me know. Most of the flavor in grape juice comes from cooking the skins, and that happens when the grapes are processed in the jars. I also think you would get a cloudier juice, and it would be harder to pour off just the juice without getting sediments into your drinking glass. With the grapes kept whole it is very easy to pour just juice out of the canning jars.<br />Again, I welcome testing and feedback.<br />Thanks!<br />MartyJunkerJunkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03022978446792143889noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5585490156233291273.post-40900516023966986592010-08-30T12:19:51.484-04:002010-08-30T12:19:51.484-04:00I am interested in trying this. Do you dilute this...I am interested in trying this. Do you dilute this when you drink it? Does it taste better with age? Do you know if this works if you slightly crush the 1-2 cups of grapes before putting into the jar? Wondered if it would give a stronger taste- sooner??
