I currently have 3 batches of sugar winegoing, trying to figure the best way to make it, and regular tablesugar does not work.Table sugar is sucrose, which is a disaccharide, which yeast does noteat. The yeast has to generate an enzyme to break it down into twomonosaccharide's, which has a slightly off flavor. You can use a candisugar, or a monosaccharide to do this, and it should come out better,but you will still have a slightly cider-y flavor.ORGINAL POSTER: recchiap
