How to make Home made Grape Wine Naturally ( No Yeast Recipe)






It's been quite sometime since I  last posted here. I promise to be more regular here.  So today I bring you a recipe. My first Recipe on Itchtowrite. If you want to see more recipes follow me on my instagram handle @anpulicious

So here goes.

5 Kg Grapes( Seeded Variety)
4 Kg Sugar
2 litre Boiled and Cooled water
Two Handfuls of Broken Wheat (Sooji Gothambu)( loosely wrap it in a muslin cloth)
5 Pieces Cinnamon
10 Pieces Cardamom

Points to be Noted: 
Do not use Plastic bottles for wine fermentation.
You can use  a big Glass Jar or Bharani with a wide mouth.
Don't overfill the jar.
Fill it to 3/4th only.
After cleaning the grapes remove the stems and dry them with a cotton muslin cloth .
There should be absolutely no moisture. This is probably the hardest part of the whole wine making process to make sure every single grape out of the 5kg is fully dry.
  Make sure the Glass jar/Bharani is also clean and dry.
 If you are using a bharani make sure you have not used it previously for putting pickles.
In this receipe you don't need to crush the grapes.
Always store the wine in a dark cool dry place. Always use a woodle ladle for stirring daily. Stirring has to be done at the same time each day.
The total time duration is 45 days. You have to be patient. 


Procedure:
Add a layer of Grapes to the Jar
Follow it by adding a layer of Sugar.
After this add some of the Cardamom and Cinnamom( not all)
Repeat this layering till the rest of the Grapes, Sugar & Spices are added.
Add 2 litres of boiled & Cooled water to this jar.
Wrap a cotton muslin cloth loosely like a kizhi and add the broken wheat inside it.
Push this kizhi using a wooden ladle to the bottom of the jar
Cover the bharani with a clean cotton cloth & cotton  yarn for fermentation
Don't make it airtight by using a lid . For fermentation to occur naturally you need  to make sure it is a not airtight.
Mix daily at the same time everyday the next 15days with a dry and clean wooden ladle

            After 15 days discard the kizhi. Strain the mixture & separate the solids. The wine you got after straining has to be kept again for another 30days for further fermentation.  This is the first extract. The extracted wine can be put back into  the same bharani but make sure you wipe away the seeds of the grapes  stuck to the bharani with a clean dry cotton cloth. After putting the strained wine into the bharani make sure that during the next 30 days you don't need to stir. Keep it in a cool dark place and let it ferment. This time you have to close the lid tightly by using a muslin cloth folded into 4. After 30 days you can strain and enjoy the wine. Store in a dry,cool & dark place and avoid moisture. As days pass by the wine will taste better and better.


              The solids(seeds and grapes) separated while extracting the first wine can be used for fermentation  for another 15 days ( this is the second extracted wine but will not be as tasty as the first extracted wine) . No need to add kizhi to this one. You can discard the kizhi . Add 1 litre of boiled and cooled water to the solids and keeo it for 15 days.  Strain it after 15 days & then keeping for another month and strain and enjoy the wine.

His Final Message to the World: Don’t Give Up on Your Dream”

My father’s brother — our dearest Lalu Uncle — went to be with the Lord in October 2025. He had travelled to Delhi to deliver this TEDx talk, but sadly, he never got the chance. He passed away before he could step onto that stage. If he had delivered this speech, it would have been one of the most inspiring and viral talks of all time. Take just 2 minutes to read through his incredible testimony — a journey of failure, faith, resilience, and destiny. The last speech Abraham Zachariah prepared – to deliver at TEDx I didn’t go to school. I was sent to school. Hence, for 10th standard, marks were very low and I could get admission only for Commerce group, as no one wanted (is 55 years ago) in my home state Kerala. My mother was very upset as my cousins and friends got into Science groups and she pushed me into Commerce Group. I was used to tell everyone that “Useless fellow, useless fellow, useless fellow are in Commerce Group and all the useless ones are in commerce group.” She was...

“When Love Becomes a Language”

 It has been 9 years since I married Rohit and became a part of this beautiful family, and in that time I came to know Amma as an all-rounder.  I remember once asking Appa about the collection of awards in the showcase, and he told me that most of them belonged to Amma. From writing to creative thinking, to receiving “Best Employee” awards at Cochin Refinery.. ( thats wher she worked) —she was always at the top in everything she did. I even came across her handwritten recipe book, filled with recipes for many dishes including doughnuts which was uncommon back then. Every page was written with neat handwriting and exact measurements. Rohit often told me how Saturdays at home were almost like a feast when Amma would prepare a variety of new dishes for the family. Food was her love language and she found joy in serving the family.  Amma had a way of finding cute coincidences. Amma told me soemthig she had figured out. she told that all the daughter in laws of the house....

Follow your Passion, It will lead you to Success!

  Name: Bittu Jacob Owner of Baked for you by Bittu   1. Why did you pursue baking as career?   During my school days I enjoyed baking with my ‘Amma’. After getting married I used to bake occasionally at home and when we had guests at home.   On my son’s 5 th   birthday, I decided to make a fire truck shaped fondant cake. It was my very first attempt baking a fondant cake from scratch. When my family saw the cake they were quite impressed. To be honest the cake tasted lovely but it was not like those very neat fondant cakes . My family encouraged me to level up my skill by attending cake décor classes.       So I attended a class and learned the basics of cake decoration. Even at that point of time I never thought of taking this up professionally. That same year (2016) in the month of December my Appa asked me to bake 10 cakes to gift his friends. I was nervous about this but my Appa had full confidence in me. He convinced...
