That's going to be some great wine.. watched through to the end because you have a great explaining style. Cheers
I love ginger, and this sounds so intriguing! Thank you!
Another great video, thanks Hugh / Fiona. This is one I'm going to try. I made some parsnip wine following another recipe you posted and it was absolutely delicious, so I'm looking forward to trying this. It sounds like the kind of drink that would be great as an Xmas aperitif.
A kilo of ginger, Oh boy, I dare say if you didn't grow ginger you wouldn't make this recipe, ginger is damned expensive in AU to buy at the supermarket, unless you love ginger wine then maybe you'd do it. Here in AU we have a brand of ginger wine called stones and its ick, booze heads get it cause there's lots of alc in a 1.5lt bottle for cheap but needless to say, great video, Hugh!! Cheers
The price of ginger has shot up over the last few months – so growing your own would be brilliant
That’s an interesting recipe. I can’t seem to locate it on your website though. Can find elderberry etc but not this Ginger one.
This is one I'm going to try. I actually made Christmas pudding wine with Crossmyloof yeast and broached it last Christmas there. Oh yes! Cheers!
Sounds like a great wine. Looking forward to part two. I think I will be giving this a go.
Good evening Hugh, and Fiona. Hope you are both well. Loved the video and will defo give it a try. Do you have any experience and knowledge on making mead? Would love to see a video if you do.
Thanks Hugh-another really good video. I make lots of wine but this is a new one to try, as we’ve been growing ginger in a cold greenhouse for the first time.
That’s really interesting and it sounds like a wine that I’d love to try. It’s great to watch it being made as my wine making has only previously been done from written recipes and you’ve shed a lot of light on terms and language of wine making that I didn’t understand (pitching the yeast for example!). Interesting about using a heat mat too as I also live in an old and cold cottage. I have had very good results with rhubarb, blackberry and plum wines but as I’m aiming to make a demijohn every month, I’d love to see what other seasonal ingredients could be used over a year. As always, your enthusiasm is infectious, many thanks 👍
What an absolute coincidence, I'm starting a ginger wine tomorrow for next Christmas and your video pops up this evening. I'll give your recipe a go Hugh. Every blessing for 2023!
Looking forward to the ginger growing video! I haven't had much success growing it myself and any tips and tricks will be greatly appreciated! 🙂
How do you grow your ginger?! I've tried so many times with different YouTube methods and it always seems to go bad 😔
What about an apple and pear cider?
Great video. I make Ginger wine but generally use white sugar. I'll try the dark sugar next time! I use a couple of my home grown cayenne peppers and bung a brown banana in for good measure. We really love it as a sipping wine on a cold evening. I don't stabilise, I kind of keep it going by adding in syrup until it gives up fermentation… Eventually. I have it in my pantry where it gets warm and cold depending on conditions, so starts and stops over a few months.
Cool video! I'm definitely not far along on my homestead to be making custom wine (I only have 6 chickens, some meat quails, a rosemary bush for adding flavor to turkeys and such, and a dying lemon tree) but still interesting to learn stuff like this.
