2lbs of sugar to a gallon of muscadines, one pack of yeast. Rack as needed, keep everything clean

My granddaddy never gave us his recipe but I know he doubled his sugar and that stuff would put you in the floor if you drank it fast

Muscadine wine is an easy fix. Start with clean equipment-I mean everything clean! Wash all the grapes and it removes a lot of the wild yeast they naturally produce. Throw away any grapes that are bad. Squeeze a quart and a half of the grapes and put these in a clean gallon jar. Add 6 cups of sugar (heat the sugar on the stove mixed with nonchlorine water until the sugar dissolves) and put this in the gallon jar with the grapes. Then fill the jar about 3 inches from the top with water as listed above. You will need room for the grapes to rise as the yeast works. You can add pectin enzyme, and a mix to kill the wild yeast at this point if you have it. Do not add yeast at this point. Wait 24 hours or more before adding Red Star brand yeast depending on whether it is red or white grapes.
Cover the jar with a clean cloth and place a lid on it very lightly. The yeast will turn the sugar to alcohol and will give off gases so don't close the lid tight. If you tighten-it will blow up. Stir 2 times a day. After about ten days most of the yeast will be dead. Strain your juices and throw away the hulls, etc that are left. Put the juice in a clean jug and let it set for 30 days with an airlock on top to keep the gnats out. The smell will bring every gnat to it. After 30 days, rack the juice and don't get the bottom junk in the cleared juices. Let it set another 30 days and rack it again. Don't bottle the mix until at least 3 months. Wait at least 6 months before drinking. The longer the better.
For great wine go to TNdeer.com and check out Bamaproud there in the cooking forum. He is the wine expert that has been the go to.. This recipe will get you started and will make a decent wine. You can always adjust accordingly.
