By Jesse Robinson
To learn how to make homemade wine for free, that is to say, how to get the best, most delectably prime wine fruits available at no cost to make your own wine with, all it takes is a little simple thinking and a neighborly demeanor. The explanation is superbly uncomplicated, but in order to fully understand how and why this can be exceedingly beneficial, we need to go over a few facts...
Wine grapes, or berries, or other fruits such as pears, apples, peaches and so forth, and many combinations and mixes thereof, can produce exquisitely flavored wines indeed. But in order for any wine fruits to make good wine, they must be at the absolute peak of ripeness. This is when the natural sugar content of these are at their highest, and can properly feed the wine fermentation yeast enough for it to produce the proper alcohol content. However, you will never find such fruits at a supermarket as such stores only offer under-ripe fruit so that it does not spoil before it gets to your home. Even if you buy them to make your own wine with and wait for ripeness, this certainly is not how to make homemade wine for free.
When you make your own wine from juice concentrate, it can be a bit different, as this is made from much riper stock... however this also is not how to make homemade wine for free - so how is this done already? Go back to the supermarket. When fruit gets too ripe for sales, they simply dispose of it all. Is it garbage? No, of course it's not! Ask anyone who has been homemade wine making long enough and they'll tell you... it's at the perfect peak for wine making!
Ask the manager if you can take some (or all) of it off of his hands, and explain that you make wine as a hobby. Offer a couple or a small few bottles of your best work in return and establish a good rapport. The manager will be quite pleased not to have to pay so much for disposal, and may enjoy the prospect of sampling your wares. The truth is, many excellent relationships between suppliers and growing wine makers have been made in this way, and this is how to make homemade wine for free.
