This years harvest of muscadines from my Ison's black muscadines:
I harvested about 2 5gal buckets of muscadines about 3/4" full.
Mostly fully ripe and black but also some purple ones. I froze these for about 1 week until I had the time to crush the grapes.
Day1:
Added water to cover frozen muscadines and added k-meta 1/4 tsp. Also added pectic but this was a bit early for pectic.
Day2:
Frozen grapes sat on k-meta over night and I crushed the following morning.
Poured crushed juice into nylon paint strainer bags to contain hulls and tied
Added 4 16 oz jars of backberry seedless jam to each bucket.
Added sugar for a specific gravity between 1.090-1.095. Liquid level with pulp is about 5.5 gal.
