After which you could bottle the wine. I got a dozenwine bottles with corks and labels on ebay. Once bottled you canstore at room temperature. The tablets, while stopping fermentation,may or may not be useful. Dry wine has little or no sugar, whilesweeter wine could possibly start fermenting. Be sure not totransfer the sediment at the bottom, it contains yeast, which cancause additon fermentation, and bitterness. Nasty stuff. Check outthe EZ caps website.ORGINAL POSTER: alfords61755

Last year, I filled a 2 liter bottle with cherries, right off thetree. added sugar, and a little water. 1 scoop of yeast. It wasn'tbad, I think it needed more sugar, they are sour cherries. Didn't havetime this year, but when I get the recipe right, I'll post it .ORGINAL POSTER: alfords61755

Pulpy juice is fine to brew, but sometimes very acidic juices, like oranges and lemons, can be tough to get started. You can leave the pulpy stuff in, that is your choice. Clarification is the process of letting the suspended stuff fall to the bottom to seperate it off. You may choose at any time to shake up your juice, I actually recomend Shaking it up once a day for the first 3-4 days to get a really active fermentation going. Don't shake it if you want it to 'clear' in the next 2-3 days. I have successfully made Pize Winning mead using EZ Caps, here's a couple tricks 1. Add a little apple or grape juice (1/4 to 1/2 cup) to your honey water. Honey doesn't have all the extra trace elements (think vitamins and minerals) that yeast needs to grow healthy and strong. also, honey is a very complex sugar for the yeast to eat to generate the alcohol, so expect the honey fermentation to take about 2 to 3 times as long as fruit juices. Believe me, it's worth the wait!
